A 10.0 Ω lightbulb is connected to a 12.0 V battery. (a) What current flows through the bulb? (b) What is the power of the bulb?

1 answer:

6 0

The current flowing through the bulb as well the power of the bulb are 1.2A and 14.4 Watts respectively.

<h3>What current flows through the bulb as well as the power of the bulb?</h3>

From ohm's law; V = I × R

Where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistance.

Also, Power is expressed as; P = V × I

Where V is voltage and I is current.

Given that;

Resistance R = 10.0 ohms
Voltage V = 12.0V
Current I = ?
Power P = ?

First, we determine the current flow through the bulb.

V = I × R

12.0V = I × 10.0 ohms

I = 12.0 ÷ 10.0

I = 1.2A

Next, we determine the power of the bulb.

P = V × I

P = 12.0V × 1.2A

P = 14.4 Watts

Therefore, the current flowing through the bulb as well the power of the bulb are 1.2A and 14.4 Watts respectively.

A Carnot engine's operating temperatures are 240 ∘C and 20 ∘C. The engine's power output is 910 W . Part A Calculate the rate of

scoray [572]

Answer:1200

Explanation:

Given data

Upper Temprature $\left ( T_H\right )=240^{\circ}\approx 513$

Lower Temprature $\left ( T_L\right )=20^{\circ}\approx 293$

Engine power ouput $\left ( W\right )=910 W$

Efficiency of carnot cycle is given by

$\eta =1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}$

$\eta =\frac{W_s}{Q_s}$

$1-\frac{293}{513}=\frac{910}{Q_s}$

$Q_s=2121.954 W$

$Q_r=1211.954 W$

rounding off to two significant figures

$Q_r=1200 W$

Amy is standing still on the ground; Bill is riding his bicycle at 5 m/s eastward; and Carlos is driving his car at 15 m/s westw

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

20 m/s westward

Explanation:

Taking eastward as positive direction, we have:

$v_B = +5 m/s$ is the velocity of Bill with respect to Amy (which is stationary)

$v_C = -15 m/s$ is the velocity of Carlos with respect to Amy

Bill is moving 5 m/s eastward compared to Amy at rest, so the velocity of Bill's reference frame is

$v_B = +5 m/s$

Therefore, Carlos velocity in Bill's reference frame will be

$v_C' = v_C - v_B = -15 m/s - (+5 m/s) = -20 m/s$

and the direction will be westward (negative sign).

45. What is the wovelength of a 30. Hertz periodic

Leviafan [203]

The wavelength is 2m.

Hence, Option c) 2m is the correct answer

Given that;

Frequency; $f = 30Hz$

Speed; $v = 60m/s$

Wavelength; $\lambda =\ ?$

using the expression for the relations between wavelength, frequency and speed of wave:

$\lambda = \frac{v}{f}$

Where $\lambda$ is wavelength, f is frequency and v is speed.

We substitute our given values into the equation

$\lambda = \frac{60m/s}{30Hz}\\\\\lambda = \frac{60m/s}{30s^{-1}}\\\\\lambda = 2m$

The wavelength is 2m.

Hence, Option c) 2m is the correct answer.
