<span>For this particular problem, we use Ohm's Law. This law deals with the relation between voltage and current in an ideal conductor. It states that: Potential difference across a conductor is proportional to the current that pass through it. It is expressed as V=IR. Using the equation, we can isolate I or the current to one side and the other terms to the other side. We calculate as follows:

V = IR
I = V/R
I = 12 V / 20 </span><span>Ω
I = 0.6 amperes

Therefore, the current that is flowing through the wire supplied with 12 V and having a resistance of 20 
</span><span>Ω would be 0.6 amperes.</span>

Please help!!! A river has a constant current of 3 km per hour. If a motorboat, capable of maintaining a constant speed of 20km
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
Construct a vector diagram. It will be a right-angled triangle. One vector (the hypotenuse) represents the heading of the boat, one represents the current and one represents the resultant speed of the boat, which I'll call x. Their magnitudes are 20, 3 and x. Let the required angle = theta. We have: 

<span>theta = arcsin(3/20) = approx. 8.63° </span>

<span>The boat should head against the current in a direction approx. 8.63° to the line connecting the dock with the point opposite, or approx. 81.37° to the shore line. </span>

<span>x = sqrt(20^2 - 3^2) </span>
<span>= sqrt(400 - 9) </span>
<span>= sqrt 391 </span>

<span>The boat's crossing time = </span>
<span>0.5 km/(sqrt 391 km/hr) </span>
<span>= (0.5/sqrt 391) hr </span>
<span>= approx. 0.025 hr </span>
<span>= approx. 91 seconds</span>

A rocket moves upward, starting from rest with an acceleration of 25.4 m/s^2 for 3.39 s. It runs out of fuel at the end of the 3
kolbaska11 [484]

Explanation:

Initial speed of the rocket, u = 0

Acceleration of the rocket, a=25.4\ m/s^2

Time taken, t = 3.39 s

Let v is the final velocity of the rocket when it runs out of fuels. Using the equation of kinematics as :

v=u+at

v=25.4\times 3.39=86.10\ m/s    

Let x is the initial position of the rocket. Using third equation of kinematics as :

v^2=u^2+2ax_o

x_o=\dfrac{v^2}{2a}

x_o=\dfrac{86.10^2}{2\times 25.4}=145.92\ m  

Let x_o is the position at the maximum height. Again using equation of motion as :

v^2-u^2=2a(x-x_o)

Now a=-g and v and u will interchange

u^2=2g(x-x_o)

x=x_o+\dfrac{u^2}{2g}

x=145.92+\dfrac{(86.10)^2}{2\times 9.8}

x = 524.14 meters

Hence, this is the required solution.

Explain why, under some circumstances, it is not advisable to weld a structure that is fabricated with a 3003 aluminum alloy. Hi
Scorpion4ik [409]

The 3003 aluminum alloy is made up of 1.25% Magnesium and 0.1% Copper. This combination is designed to increase the strength of the material over other types of alloys such as those of the 1000 series. This alloy provides a medium strength and can be educated by cold work.

The alloy is not heat treatable and generally has good formability, corrosion resistance and weldability.

However, being a material that hardens by cold work, welding a 3003 Aluminum structure will cause the body to undergo recrystallization which will generate a loss in the 'resistance' of the material and the force capable of withstanding. If this aluminum will be used for structural purposes, it should not be welded. It would be better to perform the structure with a 6061 aluminum, which has similar characteristics and is not so affected by welding.

Pls help my science teacher is a horrible teacher...
Anettt [7]

First of all, looks like your teacher is indeed pretty horrible. Secondly, the constraints to consider would be proper weight distribution, methods to minimize excessive motion of the building structure, and quantities such as volume and density, which would help in determining the optimal structure. Keeping the frequency of oscillation for a building low in case of an earthquake or natural disaster would also be a priority.
