Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for power :

P = VI

The formula for potential difference :

V = IR

Calculating P by inputting the formula of V :

P = (IR)(I)
P = I²R

Solving using the given values :

18 = I² x 6
I² = 3
I = √3
<u>I = 1.73A</u>

We need voltage first

P=V²/R
V²=PR
V²=18(6)
V²=108
V=√108
V=10.4V

Apply oHMS law

V/I=R
I=V/R
I=10.4/6
I=1.73A

Certain rifles can fire a bullet with a speed of 950 m/s just as it leaves the muzzle (this speed is called the muzzle velocity)

Answer:

a) By $v^2 = u^2 + 2as$ => a= 70291.70.

(b)By $v = u + at$ => t= 1.58 ms.

(c)By $v^2 = u^2 - 2gh$ => H = 46045.92 m.

Explanation:

a) By $v^2 = u^2 + 2as$

$(950)^2 = 0 + 2 \times a \times 0.75\\a = 601666.67 m/s^2\\a/g = 688858.70/9.8 = 70291.70$

(b)By $v = u + at$

$950 = 0 + 601666.67 \times t\\t = 1.58 x 10^-3 sec = 1.58 ms$

(c)By $v^2 = u^2 - 2gh$

$0 = (950)^2 - 2 \times9.8 \times H\\H = 46045.92 m$

Answer:

8.89 m/s² west

Explanation:

Assume east is +x. Given:

v₀ = 120 m/s

v = 0 m/s

t = 13.5 s

Find: a

v = at + v₀

0 m/s = a (13.5 s) + 120 m/s

a = -8.89 m/s²

a = 8.89 m/s² west
