A common flashlight bulb is rated at 0.23 a and 2.9 v (the values of the current and voltage under operating conditions). if the

resistance of the bulb filament at room temperature (20°c) is 1.1 ω, what is the temperature of the filament when the bulb is on? the temperature coefficient of resistivity is 4.3 × 10-3 k-1 for the filament material.

The resistance at operating temperature is R = V/I = 2.9 V / 0.23A = 12.61 ohmsT from R – R0 = Roalpha (T – T0), we find that:T = T0 + 1/alpha (R/R0 -1) = 20 degrees Celsius + (1/ 4.3 x 10^-3/K) (12.61 ohms/ 1.1 ohms – 1)T = 2453.40 degrees Celsius

A train traveled 350km in 2.5h. what was the average speed of the train?
MaRussiya [10]
Speed equals distance divided by time, so 350 divided by 2.5 equals 140 kilometers per hour.

An electron in the n = 5 level of an h atom emits a photon of wavelength 1282.17 nm. to what energy level does the electron move
lions [1.4K]
This is an interesting (read tricky!) variation of Rydberg Eqn calculation.
Rydberg Eqn: 1/λ = R [1/n1^2 - 1/n2^2]
Where λ is the wavelength of the light; 1282.17 nm = 1282.17×10^-9 m
R is the Rydberg constant: R = 1.09737×10^7 m-1
n2 = 5 (emission)
Hence 1/(1282.17 ×10^-9) = 1.09737× 10^7 [1/n1^2 – 1/25^2]
Some rearranging and collecting up terms:
1 = (1282.17 ×10^-9) (1.09737× 10^7)[1/n2 -1/25]
1= 14.07[1/n^2 – 1/25]
1 =14.07/n^2 – (14.07/25)
14.07n^2 = 1 + 0.5628
n = √(14.07/1.5628) = 3

A newspaper turns yellow in sunlight. Is this a physical or chemical change?
LekaFEV [45]
It is a chemical change. I always think of a chemical/physical change as if you could  reverse it back as it started off, for example if you stepped on a can you can reverse the can back probably not exactly like it was before but you can still reverse it so this would be a physical change, and if you baked a pizza you could not reverse the dough and everything else back.

What is the difference between a free body diagram and a vector diagram?​
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

Free body diagrams are used to describe situations where several forces act on an object. On the other hand Vector diagrams are used to resolve (break down) a single force into two forces acting as right angles to eachother

Why do ice cubes always float at the top of a glass of water?
AnnZ [28]

Because water is a very very very very very unusual substance ... It's
the only known substance whose solid form is less dense than its liquid
form near the same temperature.

In other words, water is the only known substance for which a solid lump
of it floats in a liquid glass of it.

If that were not true ... if the behavior of the density of water around its
freezing temperature were the same as the density of all other known
substances ... then life on Earth would be impossible.

Think about that for a while !  Ya gotta admire whoever it was that designed water !
