Answer: R=24.2Ω

Explanation: <u>Power</u> is rate of work being done in an electric circuit. It relates to voltage, current and resistance through the following formulas:

P=V.i

P=R.i²

P=\frac{V^{2}}{R}

The resistance of the system is:

P=\frac{V^{2}}{R}

R=\frac{V^{2}}{P}

R=\frac{110^{2}}{500}

R = 24.2Ω

<u>For the device, resistance is 24.2Ω.</u>

A 99.1-kg baseball player slides into second base. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the player and the ground is μk =
Stels [109]

Answer:

628.022466 N

8.61 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass

\mu = Coefficient of friction

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

F_f=\mu mg\\\Rightarrow F_f=0.646\times 99.1\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_f=628.022466\ N

Magnitude of frictional force is 628.022466 N

F=ma\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{F_f}{m}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{628.022466}{99.1}\\\Rightarrow a=6.33726\ m/s^2

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=u-6.33726\times 1.36\\\Rightarrow u=8.61\ m/s

Initial speed of the player is 8.61 m/s

Increase the slit width to 1050 nm. What happens to the width of the central bright fringe? (Always remember to wait a few secon
djyliett [7]

Answer:

b.

Explanation:

In case of Single Slit, diffraction will occur.

Then In Single slit Diffraction, width of central fringe is

x_c= 2D\lambda/a&#10;

where D= distance b/w screen and slit

a= slit width

\lambda = wavelength

Thus if Screen width increases keeping other factors same then width of central fringe becomes narrower as

x_c\propto 1/a

On increasing the slit width the central bright fringe width The width of the central bright fringe becomes narrower.
