Answer:

2\Omega

Explanation:

(Assuming the cell in the circuit has 0 internal resistance)

Ohm's Law is given as:

V=IR

Voltage is Current multiplied by Resistance.

We can rearrange this formula to give us:

R=\frac{V}{I}

Now we can plug in our values

R=\frac{6}{3}=2\Omega

I= 3A

V= 6V

R=?

V=IR

R=V/I

R=6/3

Therefore R = 2ohms

Hope this will help u mate :)

How do you find the speed of an object given its mass and kinetic energy (what is the formula)?
madam [21]
   v  =   √ { 2*(KE) ] / m } ; 

Now, plug in the known values for "KE" ["kinetic energy"] and "m" ["mass"] ; 
        
and solve for "v".

______________________________________________________
Explanation:
_____________________________________________________
The formula is:  KE = (½) * (m) * (v²) ;
_____________________________________
  
"Kinetic energy" = (½) * (mass) * (velocity , "squared")
________________________________________________
Note:  Velocity is similar to speed, in that velocity means "speed and direction";  however, if you "square" a negative number, you will get a "positive"; since:  a "negative" multiplied by a "negative" equals a "positive".
____________________________________________
So, we have the formula:
___________________________________
KE = (½) * (m) * (v²) ;  to solve for "(v)" ; velocity, which is very similar to                                          the "speed"; 
___________________________________________________
we arrange the formula ;
__________________________________________________
(KE) = (½) * (m) * (v²) ;  ↔  (½)*(m)* (v²) = (KE) ; 
___________________________________________________

→ We have:  (½)*(m)* (v²) = (KE)  ; we isolate, "m" (mass) on one side of the equation:
______________________________________________________
   
→ We divide each side of the equation by: "[(½)* (m)]" ; 
___________________________________________________
    
           →   [ (½)*(m)*(v²) ] /  [(½)* (m)]  = (KE) / [(½)* (m)]<span> ;
</span>______________________________________________________
 to get: 
______________________________________________________
                           →   v²     =   (KE) / [(½)* (m)]
                     
                           →   v²     = 2 KE / m
_______________________________________________________
Take the "square root" of each side of the equation ;
_______________________________________________________
                          →  √ (v²)  =  √ { 2*(KE) ] / m }
________________________________________________________

                          →     v  =   √ { 2*(KE) ] / m } ; 

Now, plug in the known values for "KE" ["kinetic energy"] and "m" ["mass"]; 
       
and solve for "v".

Dima020 [189]
The _quamtum mechanical_ model of the atom states that an electron's exact location within an atom can not be determined, but its probable location can be estimated within a three-dimensional region called an atomic orbital and that an electron's properties within an orbital can only be described by a set of mathematical values called a quantum number.

An electric field from a charge has a magnitude of 1.5 × 104 N/C at a certain location that points inward. If another charge wit
zysi [14]

Answer:

-0.045 N, they will attract each other

Explanation:

The strength of the electrostatic force exerted on a charge is given by

F=qE

where

q is the magnitude of the charge

E is the electric field magnitude

In this problem,

q=3.0\cdot 10^{-6}C

E=-1.5\cdot 10^4 N/C (negative because inward)

So the strength of the electrostatic force is

F=(-3.0\cdot 10^{-6}C)(1.5\cdot 10^4 N/C)=-0.045 N

Moreover, the charge will be attracted towards the source of the electric field. In fact, the text says that the electric field points inward: this means that the source charge is negative, so the other charge (which is positive) is attracted towards it.
