A portable music player, operating with four 1.5 V cells connected in series, provides a resistance of 15 000 Ω. What amount of

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

A portable music player is operating with 4 cell batteries connected in series, and each cell has a P.D of 1.5V.

Then,

Total potential difference is

P.D_total = V1 + V2 + V3 + V4

P.D_total = 1.5 + 1.5 + 1.5 + 1.4

P.D_total = 6V.

The music player provides a resistance of 15,000Ω

R = 15,000Ω

We want to find the current (I) flowing through the music player?

Using ohms law

V = IR

Where

V is the potential difference

I is the current

R is the resistance

Therefore,

I = V/R

I = 6 / 15,000

I = 4 × 10^-4 A

I = 0.4 × 10^-3 A

I = 0.4 mA.

So, 0.4mA is passing through the music player

A spring has a natural length of 0.5 m and was stretched by 0.02 m. if the spring had a resultant energy of 0.5 j what is the sp

Anna71 [15]

$\textbf{2500 }\dfrac{\textbf{kg}}{\textbf{s}^{\textbf{2}}}$

Explanation:

Natural length of a spring is $0.5\text{ }m$ . The spring is streched by $0.02\text{ }m$ . The resultant energy of the spring is $0.5\text{ }J$ .

The potential energy of an ideal spring with spring constant $k$ and elongation $x$ is given by $\dfrac{1}{2}kx^{2}$ .

So, in the current problem, the natural length of the spring is not required to find the spring constant $k$ .

$\text{Potential Energy in the spring = }\dfrac{1}{2}kx^{2}\\0.5\text{ }J\text{ }=\text{ }\dfrac{1}{2}k(0.02\text{ }m)^{2}\\k\times0.0004\text{ }m^{2}\text{ }=\text{ }1\text{ }J\text{ }=\text{ }1\text{ }kg\frac{m^{2}}{s^{2}}\\k\text{ }=\text{ }\dfrac{1\text{ }kg\dfrac{m^{2}}{s^{2}}}{0.0004\text{ }m^{2}}\text{ }=\text{ }2500\text{ }\frac{kg}{s^{2}}$
