Hello!

We can use the following equation for calculating power dissipated by a resistor:
$P = i^2R$

P = Power (? W)
i = Current through resistor (2.0 A)
R = Resistance of resistor (50Ω)

Plug in the known values and solve.

$P = (2.0^2)(50) = \boxed{\text{ B. }200 W}$

A rock dropped into a pond produces a wave that takes 11.3 s to reach the opposite shore, 26.5 m away. the distance between cons

Kay [80]

The wave takes 11.3 s to cover a distance of 26.5 m, so its speed is:
$v= \frac{S}{t}= \frac{26.5 m}{11.3 s}=2.35 m/s$

The distance between two consecutive crests is 3 m, and this corresponds to the wavelength of the wave. To find its frequency, we can use the relationship between the speed v, the wavelength $\lambda$ and the frequency f:
$f= \frac{v}{\lambda}= \frac{2.35 m/s}{3 m}=0.78 Hz$

A group of hikers hear an echo 3.3 s after they shout. The temperature is 20◦C.

romanna [79]

Answer:

560 m

Explanation:

The speed of sound in air is approximately:

v ≈ v₀ + 0.6T

where v₀ is the speed of sound at 0°C (273 K) in m/s, and T is the temperature in Celsius.

The speed of sound at 20°C at that altitude is:

v ≈ 327 + 0.6(20)

v ≈ 339 m/s

The sound travels from the hikers to the mountain and back again, so it travels twice the distance.

339 m/s = 2d / 3.3 s

2d = 1118.7 m

d = 559.35 m

Rounding, the mountain is approximately 560 m away.
