Answer:

I = 0.5 A

Explanation:

Given: P=60 Watts, Voltage supply V = 120 Volts (for primary coil)

Solution:

we have P = V I

⇒ I = P /V = 60 Watts / 120 Volts

I = 0.5 A

Let’s say I am in a bumper car and have a velocity of 14 m/s, driving in the positive x-direction. I and my bumped car have a ma

AlekseyPX

Answer:

160 kg

12 m/s

Explanation:

$m_1$ = Mass of first car = 120 kg

$m_2$ = Mass of second car

$u_1$ = Initial Velocity of first car = 14 m/s

$u_2$ = Initial Velocity of second car = 0 m/s

$v_1$ = Final Velocity of first car = -2 m/s

$v_2$ = Final Velocity of second car

For perfectly elastic collision

$m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}\\\Rightarrow m_2v_2=m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}-m_{1}v_{1}\\\Rightarrow m_2v_2=120\times 14+m_2\times 0-(120\times -2)\\\Rightarrow m_2v_2=1920\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{1920}{v_2}$

Applying in the next equation

$v_2=\frac{2m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_{1}+\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_2\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{2\times 120}{120+\frac{1920}{v_2}}\times 14+\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2}\times 0\\\Rightarrow \left(120+\frac{1920}{v_2}\right)v_2=3360\\\Rightarrow 120v_2+1920=3360\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{3360-1920}{120}\\\Rightarrow v_2=12\ m/s$

$m_2=\frac{1920}{v_2}\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{1920}{12}\\\Rightarrow m_2=160\ kg$

Mass of second car = 160 kg

Velocity of second car = 12 m/s

An object travels with a constant speed in a circular path. The net force on the object is

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

toward the center

Explanation:

Before answering, let's remind the first two Newton Laws:

1) An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object moving at constant velocity tends to continue its motion at constant velocity, unless acted upon a net force

2) An object acted upon a net force F experiences an acceleration a according to the equation

$F=ma$

where m is the mass of the object.

In this problem, we have an object travelling at constant speed in a circular path. The fact that the trajectory of the object is circular means that the direction of motion of the object is constantly changing: this means that its velocity is changing, so it has an acceleration. And therefore, a net force is acting on it. The force that keeps the object travelling in the circular path is called centripetal force, and it is directed towards the center of the circle (because it prevents the object from continuing its motion straight away).

So, the correct answer is

toward the center

4.2 mol of monatomic gas A interacts with 3.2 mol of monatomic gas B. Gas A initially has 9500 J of thermal energy, but in the p

Komok [63]

Answer:

14657.32 J

Explanation:

Given Parameters ;

Number of moles mono atomic gas A , n 1 = 4 .2 mol

Number of moles mono atomic gas B , n 2 = 3.2mol

Initial energy of gas A , K A = 9500 J

Thermal energy given by gas A to gas B , Δ K = 600 J

Gas constant R = 8.314 J / molK

Let K B be the initial energy of gas B.

Let T be the equilibrium temperature of the gas after mixing.

Then we can write the energy of gas A after mixing as

(3/2)n1RT = KA - ΔK

⟹ (3/2) x 4.2 x 8.314 x T = 9500 - 600

T = (8900 x 3 )/(2x4.2x8.314) = 382.32 K

Energy of the gas B after mixing can be written as

(3/2)n2RT = KB + ΔK

⟹ (3/2) x 3.2 x 8.314 x 382.32 = KB + 600

⟹ KB = [(3/2) x 3.2 x 8.314 x 382.32] - 600

⟹ KB = 14657.32 J
