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>

Billy drops a ball from a height of 1 m. The ball bounces back to a height of 0.8 m, then
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

The displacement is  \Delta H =    -  1 \ m

The distance  is  D =  4 \  m

Explanation:

From  the question we are told that

    The height from which the ball is dropped is  h  =  1 \ m

    The height attained at  the first bounce is  h_1  = 0.8  \  m

    The height attained at  the second bounce is   h_2 = 0.5 \  m

    The height attained at  the third bounce is h_3 = 0.2 \  m

Note  : When calculating displacement we consider the direction of motion

Generally given that upward is positive  the total displacement of the ball is mathematically represented as

            \Delta H =  (0  -  h ) + ( h_1 - h_1 ) + (h_2 - h_2 )+ (h_3 - h_3)

Here the 0 show that there was no bounce back to the point where Billy released the ball  

           \Delta H =  (0  -  1 ) + ( 0.8- 0.8 ) + (0.5 - 0.5 )+ (0.2 - 0.2)

=>          \Delta H =    -  1 \ m

Generally the distance covered by the ball is mathematically represented as  

                D =  h +  2h_2 + 2h_3 + 2h_3

The 2 shows that the ball traveled the height two times

              D =  1 +  2* 0.8  + 2* 0.5 + 2* 0.2

=>           D =  4 \  m

What is the least possible initial kinetic energy kmin the oxygen atom could have and still excite the cesium atom?
Phoenix [80]
If perfectly elastic there would be no energy left over for exciting the atom. if the collision were partially elastic, then some of the initial kinetic energy would be converted into internal energy,

hope this help

What will happen to the absorption and/or emission spectral lines of an object moving away from Earth at high speed?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

c. They will be shifted toward the red end of the spectrum.

Explanation:

When the absorption or emission lines of a moving object away from from the earth at very high speed then the spectral lines  will be shifted toward the red end of the spectrum.This effect can be easily understand by Doppler effect..

So the our option c is correct.

c. They will be shifted toward the red end of the spectrum.

580 nm light shines on a double slit
lesantik [10]

Answer:

Angular position of the first minimum is 0.27 degree

Explanation:

As we know by the formula of single slit diffraction pattern

a sin\theta = m\lambda

here we have

a = d = 0.000125 m

for m = 1

\lambda = 580 nm

now we have

0.000125 sin\theta = 580 \times 10^{-9}

sin\theta = 4.64 \times 10^{-3}

\theta = 0.27 degree

Question 1
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

W = 600 J

Explanation:

We have,

According to attached figure,

Height of the inclined plane is 60 m

Force acting on the block is 10 N

It is required to find the work must be done against gravity to move it to the top of the incline. The work done is given by :

W = mgh

or

W=F\times h\\\\W=10\times 60\\\\W=600\ J

So, the work done against the gravity is 600 J.
