The current I is defined as the amount of charge Q flowing through a certain point in a time t:
I= \frac{Q}{t}
which can be rewritten as 
Q=It
so, by using this formula we can calculate the maximum amount of charge that can flow in the circuit. In fact, the maximum current is I=15 A, while the time is
t=24 h=86400 s
so the maximum amount of charge is
Q=(15 A)(86400 s)=1.30 \cdot 10^6 C

A scuba diver's tank contains 0.240 kg of o2 compressed into a volume of 3.10 l. what volume (in liters) would this oxygen occup
ohaa [14]
Given:
m = 0.240 kg = 240 g, the mass of O₂
V = 3.10 L = 3.10 x 10⁻³ m³, the volume

Because the molar mass of oxygen is 16, the number of moles of O₂ is
n = (240 g)/(2*16 g/mol) =  7.5 mol

As an ideal gas,
p*V = nRT
or
V = (nRT)/p
where R = 8.314 J/(mol-K)

When
p = 0.910 atm = (0.910 atm) * (101325Pa/atm) = 92205.75 Pa
T = 27 °C = (27 + 273) K = 300 K
then the volume is
V= \frac{(7.5 \, mol)*(8.314 \, J/(mol-K))*(300 \, K)}{(92205.75 \, Pa)} =0.2029 \, m^{3}

V = (0.2029 m³)*(10³ L/m³) = 202.9 L

Answer: 203 liters

Three point charges are located on the x-axis. The first charge, q1 = 10 μC, is at x = -1.0 m. The second charge, q2 = 20 μC, is
victus00 [196]

Answer:

<em>3.15 N towards the positive x-axis</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

first charge has charge q1 = 10 μC = 10 x 10^-6 C

second charge has charge q2 = 20 μC = 20 x 10^-6 C

third charge has charge q3 = -30 μC = -30 x 20^-6 C

According to coulomb's law, force between two charged particle is given as

F = \frac{-kQq}{r^2}

Where

F is the force between the charges

k is Coulomb's constant = 9 x 10^9 kg⋅m^3⋅s^−2⋅C^−2.

Q is the magnitude of one charge

q is the magnitude of the other charge

is the distance between these two charges

For the force on q2 due to q1,

distance r between them = 0 - (-1.0) = 1 m

F = \frac{-9*10^{9}*10*10^{-6}*20*10^{-6}}{1^2} = -1.8 N (the negative sign indicates a repulsion on q2 towards the positive  x-axis)

For the force on q2 due to q3,

distance between them = 2.0 - 0 = 2 m

F = \frac{-9*10^{9}*20*10^{-6}*(-30*10^{-6})}{2^2} = 1.35 N (the positive sign indicates an attraction on q2 towards the positive x-axis)

Resultant force on q2 = 1.8 N + 1.35 N = <em>3.15 N towards the positive x-axis</em>

How does the mass of an object affect the outcome when an unbalanced force acts on it?
Verdich [7]

Answer:

The magnitude of acceleration is reduced.

Explanation:

Force is defined as push or pull

The force is said to be<em> balance force  </em>if the force are equal in size but opposite in direction. ie the object does not move or move with constant speed.

The force are to be<em> unbalanced force </em>if the force cause change in motion. ie the object has force greater than zero and has acceleration.

According to <em>Newton second law of motion </em>, acceleration depends on force acting on the object and mass of object.

     F=ma

     a=\frac{F}{m}

When unbalanced force act on the mass of object it reduces magnitude of acceleration without changing the direction.
