A 75 A resistor in a circuit has a current flowing through it of 2.0 A. What is
Reptile [31]

Answer:

The power dissipated by the resistor can be calculated as P = I^{2} R .

Explanation:

  • Joules heating law states that any conductor passed with the electric current produces heating effect which is the electric power loss.
  • The given circuit has, R = 75 ohm resistor (the unit is wrong i question because resistor's unit is ohm not Ampere).
  • Current flowing through the circuit is I = 2.0 A.
  • By using joules heating theory, P = I^{2} R,

                  or,   P = 2^{2} * 75

                  or,   P= 4*75

                 or,  P= 300 W.

  • So the power dissipated by the resistor in the circuit is 300 W.

Firemen are shooting a stream of water at a burning building using a high-pressure hose that shoots out the water with a speed o
Mrac [35]

Answer:

a)α= 53.13°

b)The velocity at the highest point =  15 m/s

The acceleration at the highest point = 9.8m/s^2

c)h=15 m

V=18.02 m/s

Explanation:

Speed of water ,u= 25 m/s

So the horizontal component of speed u = u cos α

Given that horizontal distance cover by water in 3 s is 45 m.

So We know that in projectile motion horizontal acceleration is zero.

In horizontal direction

Distance = Velocity x time

45 =  u cos α  x 3

u cos α = 45

45 = 25 cos α x 3

 cos α = 45/75

α= 53.13°

So the velocity at the highest point =  u cos α

The velocity at the highest point =  15 m/s

The acceleration at the highest point = 9.8m/s^2

 Now the velocity along vertical direction(Vo) =  u sin α

      Vo= 25 sin 53.13°

Vo =20 m/s

h=V_o.t-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

h=20\times 3-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 10\times 3^2

h=15 m

So at 15 m above the ground water will strike .

The y-component of velocity after 3 sec

Vy= Vo - g t

Vy = 20 - 10 x 3

Vy= -10 m/s

The horizontal component of velocity will remain 15 m/s.

The resultant velocity

V=\sqrt{10^2+15^2}\ m/s

V=18.02 m/s
