Find values of y such that: log2(11y–3)–log2(3) –2log2(y) = 1

NB.: Treat all log as log2 for purpose of formatting log(x) - log(z) = log(x/z) alog(b) = log(b^a) log((11y - 3)/3) - log(y^2) = 1 log((11y - 3)/3y^2) = 1 11y - 3 / 3y^2 = 2^1 11y - 3 = 6y^2 6y^2 - 11y + 3 =...

An electric heater has a power of 1000W. It is connected to mains electricity (230V). The heater is equipped with an Earth wire. a) Calculate the current in the heater. b) Explain the role of the earth wire as a safety feature.

a) Use the equation P=IV where P is power in W, I is Current in Amps and V is voltage in volts. Rearrange to give I=P/V I=1000/230 = 4.34 A b) This is a wire connected to the metal casing of an electrical ap...
