Question no. 5 (include free body diagram)

*Question A5
A washing machine and a clothes dryer each operate with a voltage of 220 V. The current rating of the
washing machine is 11 A. Determine the power consume by (a) the clothes dryer and (b) the washing
machine. (c) Determine the ratio of the energy used by the clothes dryer in 15 minutes to the energy used
by the washing machine in one-half hour.
*Question A6
A heating filament wire has a radius of 6.5 x 10-4m. It is used in a Physics laboratory to make a water
heater that dissipates 4.00 x 102 W of power when connected to a voltage source of 220-V, ignoring the
effect of temperature on resistance, estimate the necessary length of wire.
