Answer:

n = 4.35 x 10¹⁹          

Explanation:

Given that

Voltage V= 12 V

Power rating of headlights = 41.8 W

We know that headlights of the car is connected in parallel connection.

We know that

Power = Current x Voltage

P = V I

I=\dfrac{41.8}{12}\ A

I=3.48  A

Therefore the total current will be

I'= 3.48 + 3.48 A

I = 6.96 A

We know that

Charge = Current x time

q= I' t

q= 6.96 x 1

q= 6.96 C

The charge on electron ,e= 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

q= n e

n=Number of electron

n=\dfrac{q}{e}

n=\dfrac{6.96}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

n = 4.35 x 10¹⁹

The gravitational potential energy of an object is equal to its weight multiplied by its
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Height above a surface

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy which an object possesses due to its position above a surface.

It is also the amount of work a force has to do in order to bring an object from a particular position to a point of reference.

It is given mathematically as:

P. E. = m*g*h

where m = mass of the body

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height above a surface

m*g represents the weight of the object.

Hence, Gravitational potential energy is the product of an object's weight and its height above a surface/reference point.

How does an NASCAR works?
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

It works by adding an engine, a transmission, car batteries, an extra strong frame in case of a crash, and much more needed things. When it races, The rubber often burns a lot, because of the high speeds that it goes, so that is why they so often change the tires. They give it a full tank of gas, which is basically like the car's idea of food and water. A NASCAR must have a trong engine to go so fast in order to win a race.

Explanation:

Just think of it like building a lego car just hot gluing the legos together and seeing if it breaks.

A bullet with kinetic energy of 400J strikes a wooden block where a 8.00x10N resistive force stops the bullet what is the penetr
tia_tia [17]

The "penetration of the bullet" is 5 m

<u>Explanation</u>:

A "bullet" with "kinetic energy" of = 400J

A resistive force stops the bullet  = 8.00 x 10 N

Work = change in energy  

Work = ∆ Kinetic Energy   (equation 1)

Work = F\times d   (equation 2)

From equations 1 and 2 we have,

F\times d = ∆ Kinetic Energy

Where ,

Kinetic Energy = 400 J

F = 8.00 x 10 N

(8.00 x 10 N) d = 400 J

(80 N) d = 400 J

d=\frac{400}{80}

d = 5 m

The penetration of the bullet is 5 m

When you encounter a yellow light as you approach an intersection what is the safest approach to take?
Harlamova29_29 [7]
This isn't a physics question really, but you should slow down unless you don't believe you can stop in time or don't believe it is safe to stop quickly (say you see someone driving very close behind you and you don't think they're paying attention). In general, if you think that by staying at your current speed your back tires will cross the ending lines of the intersection by the time the light turns red, it is safe to go through the yellow light. However, this is a thing you'll develop a feel for as you're driving, when in doubt, just slow down, just watch slamming on your breaks if there is someone behind you, sometimes people will see the yellow light when they're behind you and they'll speed up behind you so they'll "make it" before the light turns yellow. While this isn't illegal, since they're not technically running the red light, you should never speed up going up to a yellow light, if you need to speed up to make it before it turns red, you shouldn't make the light, just stop, this is especially bad if someone is directly in front of you and is likely to stop at the yellow light while the person behind them speeds up. This causes a lot of accidents.
