An ammeter with a resistance of 5.0 ohm is connected in series with a 3.0V cell and a lamp rated at 300 mA, 3V. Calculate the cu

Alex

Answer:

I = 0.2 A

Explanation:

Lamp is rated at 300 mA

I_lamp = 0.3 A

Voltage is; V = 3V

Thus; Resistance is given by;

R = V/I

R = 3/0.3

R = 10 ohms

Now, since the ammeter of 5 ohms is connected in series with the lamp. Thus equivalent resistance;

R_eq = 10 + 5

R_eq = 15 ohms

Ammeter current will be;

I = V/R_eq

I = 3/15

I = 0.2 A

Describe the main differences between the composition of Earth and that of the Sun.

kakasveta [241]

Answer: The earth is comprised of silicate materials as well as metals. The amount of gas is less here because of its location near to the sun. Due to its relative high surface temperature, the gases such as hydrogen and helium gets evaporated and disappears.

Whereas the sun is entirely comprised of hydrogen and helium gas, of which hydrogen is the dominant one. It has an extremely high temperature of about 5500°C.

On a cold winter day, a penny (mass 2.50 g) and a nickel (mass 5.00 g) are lying on the smooth (frictionless) surface of a froze

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

0.78333 m/s in the opposite direction

1.566 m/s in the same direction

Explanation:

$m_1$ = Mass of penny = 0.0025 kg

$m_2$ = Mass of nickel = 0.005 kg

$u_1$ = Initial Velocity of penny = 2.35 m/s

$u_2$ = Initial Velocity of nickel = 0 m/s

$v_1$ = Final Velocity of penny

$v_2$ = Final Velocity of nickel

As momentum and Energy is conserved

$m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}$

${\tfrac {1}{2}}m_{1}u_{1}^{2}+{\tfrac {1}{2}}m_{2}u_{2}^{2}={\tfrac {1}{2}}m_{1}v_{1}^{2}+{\tfrac {1}{2}}m_{2}v_{2}^{2}$

From the two equations we get

$v_{1}=\frac{m_1-m_2}{m_1+m_2}u_{1}+\frac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}u_2\\\Rightarrow v_1=\frac{0.0025-0.005}{0.0025+0.005}\times 2.35+\frac{2\times 0.5}{0.4005+0.5}\times 0\\\Rightarrow v_1=-0.78333\ m/s$

The final velocity of the penny is 0.78333 m/s in the opposite direction

$v_{2}=\frac{2m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_{1}+\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_2\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{2\times 0.0025}{0.0025+0.005}\times 2.35+\frac{0.005-0.0025}{0.005+0.0025}\times 0\\\Rightarrow v_2=1.566\ m/s$

The final velocity of the nickel is 1.566 m/s in the same direction
