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.

You watch a distant lady driving nails into her front porch at a regular rate of 1 stroke per second. You hear the sound of the

Igoryamba

Answer:

λ = 1360 m

Explanation:

Given data:

frequency of driving nails is given as 1 stroke per second mean at every 0.25 sec she hit the nails

speed of sound is given as 340 m/s

we know that the wave equation is given as

Speed = frequency × wavelength,

v = f × λ

where,

v = speed in meters/second (m/s)

f = frequency in Hertz (Hz)

substituing value to get wavelength of her driving nails

$340 m/s = (1Hz)\times \lambda$

$\lambda = \frac{340}{0.25}$

λ = 1360 m

The electric field strength in the space between two closely spaced parallel disks is 1.0 105 N/C. This field is the result of t

balu736 [363]

Answer:

$D=2.996\times 10^{-2} m$

Explanation:

*Assume the parallel disks have equal diameters.

Given the electric strength as $1.0\times 10^5 N/C.$ transferring $3.9\times 10^9$ electrons, the disk's Area can be calculated using the formula:

$E=\frac{\eta}{\epsilon_o}=\frac{Q}{A\epsilon_o}\\\\A=\frac{Q}{E\epsilon_o}\\\\=\frac{(3.9\times 10^9)\times (1.6\times10^{-19})}{(1.0\times 10^5 )\times (8.85\times10^{-12})}\\\\A=7.0508\times 10^{-4} \ m^2$

#We now calculate the disks diameter:

$A=\pi(D/2)^2\\\\2\sqrt{\frac{A}{\pi}}=D\\\\=2\sqrt{7.0508\times 10^{-4}/\pi}\\\\D=2.996\times 10^{-2} \ m$

Hence, the diameter of the disks is $D=2.996\times 10^{-2} m$

A butterfly flies from the top of a tree in the center of a garden to rest on top of a red flower at the garden's edge. The tree

Zielflug [23.3K]

The butterfly takes a vertical perpendicular path equivalent to 9m and travels a horizontal distance of 17m. The net path between the two is equivalent to that of the hypotenuse, so we will apply the Pythagorean theorem.

$x=\sqrt{(9)^2+(0.17)^2}$

$x = 9.0061 \approx 9.0 m$

Therefore the magnitude of the butterfly's displacement is 9m
