4. An electric iron has a power rating of 750W
a. How many joules of
electric energy does it
change into heat energy
every second?
b. How many joules of
work can it do in 3
seconds
c. How long does it take
the iron to do 1500J of
work?
5. Use the kinetic particle
theory to explain why a
solid has a definite shape
and liquid has none.

4.

a) W = 750 J

b) W = 2250 J

c) t = 2 sec

5. Answered in explanation

Explanation:

4.

The formula of power is given as:

P = W/t

where,

P = Power

W = Work Done

t = Time Taken

a)

Here,

P = 750 W

t = 1 sec

W = ?

Therefore,

750 W = W/1 sec

W = 750 J

b)

Here,

P = 750 W

t = 3 sec

W = ?

Therefore,

750 W = W/3 sec

W = (750 W)(3 sec)

W = 2250 J

c)

Here,

P = 750 W

t = ?

W = 1500 J

Therefore,

750 W = 1500 J/t

t = 1500 J/750 W

t = 2 sec

According to Kinetic Particle Theory, the molecules are tightly packed with each other, by strong inter-molecular forces and they can only vibrate at their position. While, molecules or particles in liquids have lesser attractive forces among them. They can move in layers and can take the shape of any container. This is the reason why solid has a definite shape and liquid has none.
