Answer:

B. 12.0A

Explanation:

The circuit shown in the image is a parallel circuit which mean that the voltage of the source is equal across each resistance in the circuit because they are directly connected to the terminals of the voltage source.

The voltage across the 10 Ohms resistor is 120V

So, let's proceed to calculate the current

By using Ohm's Law

$I=\frac{V}{R} \\I= \frac{120.0V}{10.0Ohm} \\I= 12.0A$

12A is the amount of current flowing through the 10 ohms resistor.

Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

The ends of the 10-ohm resistor are connected directly to both terminals of the battery.

So the voltage across the resistor is the voltage of the battery ... 120 V. None of that other stuff in the circuit has any effect on it.

Current = (120 V) / (10 ohms)

<em>Current = 12 A . (B)</em>

As the temperature increases the number of effective collisions between reacting particles in a chemical reaction

Reil [10]

Answer: option A) initially increases, then decreases.

Justification:

The increase of the rate of effective collisions among particles as the temperature increases is explained by the collision theory in virtue of the increase of the kinetic energy.

This is, as the temperature increase so the kinetic energy increase and the higher the kinetic energy the greater the number of collisions and the greater the chances that this energy overcome the activation energy (the energy needed to start the reaction).

Now, as the reaction progress the number of reactants particles naturally decrease (some of them have been converted into product) so this lower number of particles means lower concentration which means lower collisions and, thereafter, a decrease in the reaction rate.

A CD has to rotate under the readout-laser with a constant linear velocity of 1.25 m/s. If the laser is at a position 3.7 cm fro

Savatey [412]

Answer:N=322.53 rpm

Explanation:

Given

Linear velocity (v)=1.25 m/s

Position from center is 3.7 cm

we know

$v=\omega \times r$

$1.25\times 100=\omega \times 3.7$

$\omega =\frac{125}{3.7}=33.78$

and $\frac{2\pi N}{60}=\omega$

$N=\frac{\omega \times 60}{2\pi }$

$N=\frac{33.78\times 60}{2\pi }$

N=322.53 rpm

An early method of measuring the speed of light makes use of a rotating slotted wheel. A beam of light passes through one of the

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

4.7 x 10³ rad / s

Explanation:

During the time light goes and comes back , one slot is replaced by next slot while rotating before the light source

Time taken by light to travel a distance of 2 x 500 m is

= (2 x 500) / 3 x 10⁸

= 3.333 x 10⁻⁶ s .

In this time period, two consecutive slots come before the source of light one after another by rotation. There are 400 slots so time taken to make one rotation

= 3.333 x 10⁻⁶ x 400

= 13.33 x 10⁻⁴ s

This is the time period so

T = 13.33 X 10⁻⁴

Angular speed

= 2π / T

= $\frac{2\times3.14}{13.33\times10^{-4}}$

4.7 x 10³ rad / s
