The heating element of an iron operates at 110 v with a current of 9a. (a) what is the resistance of the iron?
(b) what is the power dissipated by the iron?

(A) 12.222 ohm (B) 990 W

Explanation:

We have given the voltage of the heating element V = 110 V

The current in the heating element i = 9 A

(a) According to ohm's law V =iR

So

(b) The power dissipated in the resistor is given by

So the power dissipated = 990 W

answer: the exterior temperature of commercial jet planes as they leave the stratosphere and return to the ground increases steadily.

explanation:

the lower most layer of atmosphere is troposphere which extends from 0 to 12 km above the surface of the earth. the temperature initially decreases as distance is increased from the earth's surface. commercial jets fly in lower part of the stratosphere. the stratosphere extends upto 50 km. the temperature in stratosphere starts rising again due to presence of ozone which traps the uv rays.

thus, when the planes leave the stratosphere and return to the ground, the exterior temperature increases steadily.

nah.   i'm just sleepy.
