Answer and Explanation:

The butcher will balance the meat and the 0.5 kg mass on one side of the beam balance and 2 kg mass on the other side of the beam balance.
By so doing, when the beam balances then the amount of meat measured will be exactly 1.5 kg as required. Since the 1.5 kg meat and 0.5 kg mass is equivalent to the 2 kg on the other side of the beam balance.

A 210 Ohm resistor uses 9.28 W of

IgorLugansk [536]

Resistance=R=210Ohm
Power=9.28W=P

Current=I

$\boxed{\sf P=I^2R}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto I^2=\dfrac{P}{R}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto I^2=\dfrac{9.28}{210}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto I^2\approx0.04$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx\sqrt{0.04}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx\sqrt{\dfrac{4}{100}}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx\dfrac{\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{100}}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx\dfrac{2}{10}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx0.2A$

A positive charge is placed in an electric field that points west. What direction is the force on the positive particle? I think

Kisachek [45]

Right. You are true. The direction of the electric field is defined to be
the direction of the force on a small positive charge placed in the field.

The wheel of a stationary exercise bicycle at your gym makes one rotation in 0.670 s. Consider two points on this wheel: Point P

defon

Answer:

0.938 m/s.

Explanation:

Given:

ω = 1 rev in 0.67 s

In rad/s,

1 rev = 2pi rad

ω = 2pi ÷ 0.67

= 9.38 rad/s

Rp = 10 cm

= 0.1 m

V = ω × r

= 9.38 × 0.1

= 0.938 m/s.
