Answer:

ΔV=0.484mV

Explanation:

The potential difference across the end of conductor that obeys Ohms law:

ΔV=IR

Where I is current

R is resistance

The resistance of a cylindrical conductor is related to its resistivity p,Length L and cross section area A

R=(pL)/A

Given data

Length L=3.87 cm =0.0387m

Diameter d=2.11 cm =0.0211 m

Current I=165 A

Resistivity of aluminum p=2.65×10⁻⁸ ohms

So

ΔV=IR

=I(\frac{pL}{A})\\ =I(\frac{pL}{\pi r^{2} } )\\=I(\frac{pL}{\pi (d/2)^{2} } )\\=165A((\frac{(2.65*10^{-8})(0.0387m)}{\pi (0.0211m/2)^{2} } ))\\=4.84*10^{-4}V

ΔV=0.484mV

The kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy changes during its movement from ground to the top height.

<h3>What happens to kinetic and potential energy while motion?</h3>

When the ball moves upward, its gravitational potential energy is increases and kinetic energy begins to decrease but when the ball falls towards the earth, its gravitational potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy. When the ball collides with the ground, the kinetic energy is transformed into other forms of energy.

A car has a mass of 1,200 kg. What is its acceleration when the engine exerts a force of 600 N? (Formula: F=ma)
Rasek [7]

Answer:

Option (a)

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a car, m = 1200 kg

Force exerted by the engine, F = 600 N

Noe force,F = ma

a is the acceleration of the engine

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{600\ N}{1200\ kg}\\\\a=0.5\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the car is 0.5 m/s².

How much time is required for reflected sunlight to travel from the Moon to Earth if the distance between Earth and the Moon is
mafiozo [28]

1.3 second of time will be required for reflected sunlight to travel from the Moon to Earth if the distance between Earth and the Moon is 3.85 × 105 km

<h3>What is Speed ?</h3>

Speed is the distance travelled per time taken. It is a scalar quantity. And the S.I unit is meter per second. That is, m/s

In the given question, we want to find how much time is required for reflected sunlight to travel from the Moon to Earth if the distance between Earth and the Moon is 3.85 × 10^5 km.

What are the parameters to consider ?

The parameters are;

  • The distance S = 3.85 × 10^{5} km
  • The Speed of Light C = 3 × 10^{8} m/s
  • The time taken t = ?

Speed = distance S ÷ Time t

Convert kilometer to meter by multiplying it by 1000

C = S/t

3 × 10^{8} =  3.85 × 10^{8} / t

Make t the subject of formula

t = 3.85 × 10^{8} / 3 × 10^{8}

t = 1.2833

t = 1.3 s

Therefore, 1.3 second of time will be required for reflected sunlight to travel from the Moon to Earth if the distance between Earth and the Moon is 3.85 × 105 km
