PART A)

Here we know that

potential difference across the wire is

V = 78 volts

resistance of wire is

R = 7 ohm

now by ohm's law

V = iR

78 = i(7 ohm)

i = 11.14 A

Part b)

Power rating is defined as rate of electrical energy

it is defined as

P = iV

now we have

P = 11.14 ( 78)

P = 869.1 Watt

Calculate the energy and power required for a student to bike their way to college from home. The student bikes from home for 0.
gregori [183]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

To solve the problem, we need to analyze all forces acting on a bicycle individually. In question, student bikes on flat terrain so gravity force doesn't affect the road load. This is the case of uniform acceleration and deceleration so need to calculate average velocity to find Air resistance.

Kindly check the attached images below to see the step by step explanation to the question above.

What is the acceleration of a car that goes from 0 to 20m/s in 7 seconds?
nadezda [96]

Answer:

2m/s^2

Explanation:

Clculate the acceleration:

V = u +at

20m/s = 0 + a*10s

a = 20m//10s

a = 2m/s²

From the data given , it is not possible to calculate the displacement , because no direction of motion is given

But it is possible to calculate the distance travelled

Distance = ut + ½ *a*t²

distance = 0 + ½ * 2m/s * 10²s

distance = 100m

An alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons with a mass of 6.64 x 1027 kg and charge 3.2 x 10-19 C. If two of the
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:  ratio = 3.14 × 10³⁵

Explanation:

From Newtons law of Universal Gravitation;

Every object in the universe is attracted to every other object

F = (Gm₁m₂)/r²

G = 6.67 X 10⁻¹¹ N-m²/kg²

M₁= mass of one object

M₂= mass of second object

r = distance from center of objects

q = charge = 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹C.

  • Calculating the gravitational force;

Fg = (Gm₁m₂)/r² = (Gm²)/r²

which is = (6.67×10⁻¹¹ × (6.64×10⁻²⁷)²) / r²

= (2.94 × 10⁻⁶³) / r²

  • Calculating the electric force;

Fe = (Kq₁q₂) / r² = K q² / r² = (9×10⁹ × (3.2 × 10⁻¹⁹)² / r²

Fe = 9.22 × 10⁻²⁸ / r²

comparing the ratio of both forces we have;

Fe/Fg = (9.22×10⁻²⁸/r²) ÷ (2.94×10⁻⁶³/r²)

r² cancels from the above expression, which gives;

ratio as 3.14 × 10³⁵
