Electricity: Electric Power

Hard

(Originais Teachy 2023) - Question Hard of Physics

An electric immersion heater, with a resistance of 20 ohms, is used to heat 4 liters of water initially at 20 degrees Celsius to the boiling point, at a constant power of 1500 W. Considering that the specific heat of water is 4.18 J/(g·°C) and that water has a density of 1 g/ml, determine: 1) The time required, in seconds, for the water to reach the boiling temperature. 2) The total amount of energy, in joules, supplied by the resistance during the water heating process. Explain the calculation process of power and supplied energy, considering the relationships between power, energy, electrical resistance, and temperature variation.

An airplane initially flies north at a speed of 200 km/h. Due to a wind blowing from east to west, the airplane ends up deviating to the northeast, following a trajectory that forms a 45-degree angle with the north direction and covering a distance of 300 km from the starting point. Determine, using vector concepts, the speed of the airplane relative to the ground, considering the effect of the wind. Consider that the wind speed is constant and equal to 50 km/h, and that the wind direction is perpendicular to the initial direction of the airplane.

A technician from an electronics company is working on a circuit involving three capacitors in series. The capacitors have capacitances of 6μF, 8μF, and 12μF, respectively. Assuming the potential difference applied to the capacitors is 60V, determine the charge stored in each capacitor and the equivalent capacitance of the series configuration.
