Answer:

Explanation:

The net force on the potatoes is given by:

F= 52 - mgSintheta

F= 52- (2×9.8× Sin70°)

F = 52 -18.4

F= 33.58N

Using Newton's 2nd law

F = ma

a=F/m = 33.58/ 2 = 16.79m/s^2

Using the equation of motion:

V^2= u^2 + 2as

V^2 = 0 + 2× 16.79 x2

V^2 = 67.16

V=sqrt(68.16)

V= 8.195m/s This is the exit velocity of the potatoes

Kinetic energy, K.E = 1/2mv^2

KE= 1/2 × 2 × 8.195^2

KE = 67.16J

Light bulb is connected to a 110-V source. What is the resistance of this bulb if it is a 100-W bulb
masya89 [10]

Answer:

<h2>121ohms</h2>

Explanation:

Formula used for calculating power P = current * voltage

P = IV

From ohms law, V = IR where R is the resistance. Substituting V = IR into the formula for calculating power, we will have;

P = IV

P =(V/R)V

P = V²/R

Given parameters

Power rating of the bulb P = 100 Watts

Source voltage V = 110V

Required

Resistance of the bulb R

Substituting the given parameters into the formula for calculating power to get Resistance R;

P = V²/R

100 = 110²/R

R = 110²/100

R = 110 * 110/100

R = 12100/100

R = 121 ohms

<em>Hence, the resistance of this bulb is 121 ohms</em>

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer: $4,500

Explanation: 1% of $30,000 would be $300. If you multiply that by 15, you get $4,500, so 15% of 30,000 is 4,500.
