A voltmeter and an ammeter are used to respectively monitor the voltage across and the current through a resistor connected to a

n AC source. If the resistor has a value of 12.5 Ω and the ammeter reads 7.60 A, determine the following.
(a)

the rms voltage (in V) across the resistor

(b)

the peak voltage (in V) of the source

(c)

the maximum current (in A) in the resistor

(d)

Answer:

(a) 95 volt

(b)  134.33 volt

(c) 10.746 volt

(d) Average delivered power is 722 watt  

Explanation:

We have given value of resistance R = 12.5 ohm

Current in the ammeter i = 7.60 A

(a) Rms voltage in the resistor V=iR=7.6\times 12.5=95volt

(b) We know that rms voltage is given by v_r=\frac{v_m}{\sqrt{2}}

v_m=\sqrt{2}v_r=1.414\times 95=134.33volt

So peak voltage will be equal to 134.33 volt

(c) Maximum current is equal to i_m=\sqrt{2}i_r=1.414\times 7.6=10.746A

(d) Average power delivered in the resistor is equal to

P = VI

So P=95\times 7.6=722watt

The kinetic energy of an object with a mass of 6.8 kg and a velocity of 5.0 m/s is J. (Report the answer to two significant figu
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf Kinetic \ energy \ (KE) = 85 \ J}

Given:

Mass (m) = 6.8 kg

Speed (v) = 5.0 m/s

To Find:

Kinetic energy (KE)

Explanation:

Formula:

\boxed{ \bold{\sf KE =  \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2} }}

Substituting values of m & v in the equation:

\sf \implies KE =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 6.8 \times  {5}^{2}

\sf \implies KE = \frac{1}{ \cancel{2}}  \times  \cancel{2} \times 3.4 \times 25

\sf \implies KE =3.4 \times 25

\sf \implies KE = 85 \: J

Mr. Galonski loves to use the Electromagnetic Spectrum. Create a scenario in which Mr. Galonski is using waves from the electrom
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The Scenario:

On a normal Sunday afternoon Mr. Golanski is sitting in his living room reading his book. He decides after a while to turn on the Television to see what’s on the news, (Mr. Golanski is using Radio waves when he turns his television on by signaling the TV from his remote control). After a few hours Mr. Golanski decides it’s time to have dinner. He heats up a quick meal in his microwave because he doesn’t have the patience for cooking. (He is using microwave radiation to heat his food because water molecules in food absorb the radiation). He sits down for his meal, and halfway through he starts to choke! In a panicked frenzy he runs to his bathroom to try and dislodge the obstacle from his throat. By doing so he switched on the fluorescent lights in his bathroom exposing himself to small amounts of ultraviolet radiation. (Fluorescent lights absorb UV radiation and transmit visible light along with small amounts of UV light). Unable to dislodge the obstacle from his throat Mr. Golanski seeks help from his neighbor who drives him straight to the ER. To treat him properly the physicians opt for a fluoroscopy to examine Mr. Golanski’s esophageal tract. (Thus he is making use of X-ray imaging to obtain a visual of his internal esophageal structure to check for the obstruction). Once treated and discharged from the hospital Mr. Golanski returns home grateful to have survived this ordeal with minimum damage.

Explanation:

The Electromagnetic Spectrum is the range of frequencies and wavelengths for different light waves. They range with increasing frequency from Radio waves, to Microwaves, to Infrared waves, to Visible waves, to Ultraviolet waves, to Infrared waves, to X-rays, and to Gamma rays. Several of which we use in our daily lives such as Radio waves when operating our television or using our cellular phones. We also use microwaves to heat our food or for communication with satellites. We are also exposed to natural Ultraviolet radiation from the sun; however, we can also get exposed to other forms such as from certain types of light bulbs. We see visible light in the form of all the colors we can detect around us. We make use of x-rays for imaging techniques widely used in medicine for diagnostics, as well as Infrared waves in our home security systems. The electromagnetic spectrum is always used as a part of our everyday life.

Which EM wave is about the size of humans?
shutvik [7]
The Electromagnetic ave that is about the size of humans is : A typical micro waves have around 14 inches ( 1.1 meter) in height.
This is very similar to the height of human right before we hit puberty (around 9 - 10 years old)

How does a magnet work?
Alona [7]
All magnets have north and south poles. Opposite poles are attracted to each other, while the same poles repel each other. When you rub a piece of iron along a magnet, the north-seeking poles of the atoms in the iron line up in the same direction. The force generated by the aligned atoms creates a magnetic field.
