The total mechanical energy of an object is calculated as

Which statement best describes copper? a. it has a low resistance and prevents charges from moving freely. b it has a high resistance and allows charges to move freely. c. it has a high resistance and prevents charges from moving freely. d. it has a low resistance and allows charges to move freely

In the circuit shown below, with each bulb holding a resistance of 60 ohms, how many amps of current are flowing? express your number as a decimal.

Consider a 1000 w iron whose base plate is made of 0.5 cm thick aluminum alloy 2024-t6 (ρ = 2770 kg/m3 and cp = 875 j/kg°c). the base plate has a surface area of 0.03 m2. initially, the iron is in thermal equilibrium with the ambient air at 22°c. assuming 90% of the heat generated in the resistance wires is transferred to the plate, determine the minimum time needed for the plate temperature to reach 200°c.
