A string of 18 identical holiday tree lights is connected inseries to a 190V source. The string dissipates 62.0 W. One of thebul

bs burns out. The lamp has a wire that shorts out the lampfilament when it burns out. This drops the resistance of the lampto zero.(a) What is the resistance of the light string now?(b) Find the power dissipated by the string.(c) Did the power go up or down when a bulb burned out?

Answer:

549.9 ohms, 65.65 watts, the power went up

Explanation:  power P = V²/R

v= 190volts , P =62watts

from P =V²/R

62=190²/R

making R the subject

R×62= 190²

62R =36100

R=36100/62

R=586.25 ohms

Resistance of each lamp = 586.26/18 =32.3ohms

a) resistance of the light string now = 17×32.3 = 549.9 ohms

b) P=V²/R

where R=549.9ohms , P=?

P=190²/549.9

P=36100/549.9

P=65.65watts

Power dissipated has increased( went up )

Three cannons are located at the top of a cliff above a level plain. Cannon A is aimed at an angle of 25° above the horizontal a
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The canon B hits the ground fast.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of cannon A = 85 m/s

Speed of cannon B= 100 m/s

Speed of cannon C = 75 m/s

We need to calculate the cannonballs will hit the ground with the greatest speed

Using conservation of energy

The final kinetic energy of canon depends on initial kinetic energy and potential energy.

The  final velocity depends upon initial velocity and initial height.

So,  the initial velocity of canon B is high.

Hence, The canon B hits the ground fast.

What is the smallest frequency at which the string can be moved to produce any standing wave?
aleksklad [387]
The first harmonic would be the smallest frequency for a string to produce a standing wave. In addition, the strings were fixed in a single attachment and have only limited motion. It is because standing waves require a specific medium for the sound to travel in it.
