To calculate the mass of the fuel, we use the formula

$m = V \times \rho$

Here, m is the mass of fuel, V is the volume of the fuel and its value is $V =302 \ L = 302 \ L \times \frac{10^{3}m L }{L} = 302 \times 10^{3} \ mL$ and $\rho$ is the density and its value of 0.821 g/mL.

Substituting these values in above relation, we get

$m = 302 \times 10^{3} \ mL \times 0.821 g/mL = 247942 g \\\\ m = 247. 94 \ kg$

Thus, the mass of the fuel 247 .94 kg.

Two light bulbs have resistances of 400 Ω and 800 ΩThe two light bulbs are connected in series across a 120- V line. Find the cu

Natasha2012 [34]

1) Current in each bulb: 0.1 A

The two light bulbs are connected in series, this means that their equivalent resistance is just the sum of the two resistances:

$R_{eq}=R_1 + R_2 = 400 \Omega + 800 \Omega=1200 \Omega$

And so, the current through the circuit is (using Ohm's law):

$I=\frac{V}{R_{eq}}=\frac{120 V}{1200 \Omega}=0.1 A$

And since the two bulbs are connected in series, the current through each bulb is the same.

2) 4 W and 8 W

The power dissipated by each bulb is given by the formula:

$P=I^2 R$

where I is the current and R is the resistance.

For the first bulb:

$P_1 = (0.1 A)^2 (400 \Omega)=4 W$

For the second bulb:

$P_1 = (0.1 A)^2 (800 \Omega)=8 W$

3) 12 W

The total power dissipated in both bulbs is simply the sum of the power dissipated by each bulb, so:

$P_{tot} = P_1 + P_2 = 4 W + 8 W=12 W$

Ball A Mass: 0.45 kg Velocity: 50 m/s Ball B Mass: 0.45 kg Velocity: 80 m/s Ball C Mass: 0.45 kg Velocity: 25 m/s Which ball has

charle [14.2K]

Definition formula for momentum: P = mv

So P(A) = 0.45 * 50 = 22.5 kgm/s

P(B) = 0.45 * 80 = 36 kgm/s

P(C) = 0.45 * 25 = 11.25 kgm/s

B has the greatest momentum

Could dark matter be a higher dimensional object? Why?

REY [17]

Well dark matter is , in a layman terms just a concept used to identify missing mass in the universe. (extremely simplified and probably wrong but look that up). It could be but then if it is then we would still be able to percive the matter in some form. All we know from instruments is that they have mass and absorb light. We would need more info before any conclusions but it is 100% a possibility. But remember that when someone says "3-d" for example they are talking about a certain space.. technically matter exists on all planes (at least all the planes we know of in our local universe.) The laws of the cosmos are not yet proven to be constant and even if they are what of outside it?

When you take high school physics ask your teacher.
