Answer:
The type and length of a lunar eclipse depend on the Moon's proximity to either node of its orbit. ... A total lunar eclipse can last up to nearly 2 hours, while a total solar eclipse lasts only up to a few minutes at any given place, due to the smaller size of the Moon's shadow.
Answer:
a) 24.4 Ω
b) 4.92 A
c) 495.9 W
d)
c. It will be larger. The resistance will be smaller so the current drawn will increase, increasing the power.
Explanation:
b)
The formula for power is:
P = IV
where,
P = Power of heater = 590 W
V = Voltage it takes = 120 V
I = Current Drawn = ?
Therefore,
590 W = (I)(120 V)
I = 590 W/120 V
<u>I = 4.92 A</u>
<u></u>
a)
From Ohm's Law:
V = IR
R = V/I
Therefore,
R = 120 V/4.92 A
<u>R = 24.4 Ω</u>
<u></u>
c)
For constant resistance and 110 V the power becomes:
P = V²/R
Therefore,
P = (110 V)²/24.4 Ω
<u>P = 495.9 W</u>
<u></u>
d)
If the resistance decreases, it will increase the current according to Ohm's Law. As a result of increase in current the power shall increase according to formula (P = VI). Therefore, correct option is:
<u>c. It will be larger. The resistance will be smaller so the current drawn will increase, increasing the power.</u>
Answer:
energy is equal to 1000 J
Explanation:
When the jumper is in the tent, he has a given height, this height gives him a gravitational potential energy, which forms his initial mechanical energy of 1000 J. After jumping, this energy is converted into elastic energy of the rope plus a remainder of potential energy gravitational, it does not reach the ground, but as the friction is negligible the total mechanical energy is conserved, therefore its energy is equal to 1000 J
This is a case of energy transformation, but the total value of mechanical energy does not change
Answer:
0.74 N/cm
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Mass (m) = 3 Kg
Extention (e) = 40 cm
Spring constant (K) =?
Next, we shall determine the force exerted on the spring.
This can be obtained as follow:
Mass (m) = 3 Kg
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Force (F) =?
F = mg
F = 3 × 9.8
F = 29.4 N
Finally, we shall determine the spring constant of the spring. This can be obtained as follow:
Extention (e) = 40 cm
Force (F) = 29.4 N
Spring constant (K) =?
F = Ke
29.4 = K × 40
Divide both side by 40
K = 29.4 / 40
K = 0.74 N/cm
Therefore, the spring constant of the spring is 0.74 N/cm
