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>

An 12 N force is applied to a 1 kg object. What is the magnitude of the objects acceleration?
Sauron [17]

Answer:

a=12 m/s²

Explanation:

Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of a body is directly proportional to the force applied and takes place in the direction of force.

This can be summarized as: F=ma, where m is the mass of the object on which force F acts. a is the acceleration due to the force applied.

12N= 1kg×a

a=12N/1kg

a=12m/s²

The newest generation of smart phone uses three different batteries connected in a series simultaneously to extend battery life
azamat

Answer:

7.2 V

Explanation:

The three batteries are connected in series to the terminals of the phone: it means that they are connected along the same branch, so the current flowing through them is the same.

This also means that the potential difference across the phone will be equal to the sum of the voltages provided by each battery.

Here, the voltage provided by each battery is

V = 2.4 V

So, the overall voltage will be

V = 2.4 V + 2.4 V + 2.4 V = 7.2 V

Joe balances a stationary coin on the the tip of his finger 20 cm from the top of the table. How much work is Joe doing?
adell [148]

The work done by Joe is 0 J.

<u>Explanation</u>:

When a force is applied to an object, there will be a movement because of the applied force to a certain distance. This transfer of energy when a force is applied to an object that tends to move the object is known as work done.

The energy is transferred from one state to another and the stored energy is equal to the work done.

                                 W = F . D

where F represents the force in newton,  

          D represents the distance or displacement of an object.

Force = 0 N,   D = 20 cm = 0.20 m

                                 W = 0 \times 0.20 = 0 J.

Hence the work done by Joe is 0 J.

What will be the final temperature if a 4.00 g silver ring at 41.0◦C if it gives off 18.0 J of heat to the surroundings? The spe
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Final temperature, T_f=21.85^{\circ}

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of silver ring, m = 4 g

Initial temperature, T_i=41^{\circ}C

Heat released, Q = -18 J (as heat is released)

Specific heat capacity of silver, c=0.235\ J/g\ C

To find,

Final temperature

Solution,

The expression for the specific heat is given by :

Q=mc\Delta T

Q=mc(T_f-T_i)

T_f=\dfrac{-Q}{mc}+T_i

T_f=\dfrac{-18}{4\times 0.235}+41

T_f=21.85^{\circ}

So, the final temperature of silver is 21.85 degrees Celsius.
