The voltage in a circuit is given by the expression , V = IR , Where I is the current inbthe circuit and R is the resistance of circuit.

In this case I = V/R

In this circuit voltage V = 10 volt

Resistance of the circuit = 20 ohm

So current , I = 10/20 = 0.5 amperes

So if a 10-volt battery is placed across a 20-ohm resistance, the current will be 0.5 amperes

A 1 170.0 kg car traveling initially with a speed of 25.000 m/s in an easterly direction crashes into the back of a 9 800.0 kg t
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of car, m1 = 1170 kg

mass of truck, m2 = 9800 kg

initial velocity of car, u1 = 25 m/s

initial velocity of truck, u2 = 20 m/s

final velocity of car, v1 = 18 m/s

Let the final velocity of truck is v2.

(a) Use the conservation of momentum

m1 x u1 + m2 x u2 + m1 x v1 + m2 x v2

1170 x 25 + 9800 x 20 = 1170 x 18 + 9800 x v2

29250 + 196000 = 21060 + 9800 v2

v2 = 20.84 m/s

(b) Total kinetic energy before collision,

Ki = 0.5 x 1170 x 25 x 25 + 0.5 x 9800 x 20 x 20

Ki = 365625 + 1960000 = 2325625 J

Total final kinetic energy

Kf = 0.5 x 1170 x 18 x 18 + 0.5 x 9800 x 20.84 x 20.84

Kf = 189540 + 2128097.44

Kf = 2317637.44 J

Change in energy = 2325625 - 2317637.44 = 7987.56 J

(c) It is due to the heat energy

the wattage ratting of a light bulb is the power it sonsumers when it is connected accross a 120 V potential difference what is
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

240 Ω

Explanation:

Resistance: This can be defined as the opposition to the flow of current in an electric field. The S.I unit of resistance is ohms (Ω).

The expression for resistance power and voltage is give as,

P = V²/R.......................... Equation 1

Where P = Power, V = Voltage, R = Resistance

Making R the subject of the equation,

R = V²/P.................... Equation 2

Given: V = 120 V, P = 60 W.

Substitute into equation 2

R = 120²/60

R = 240 Ω

Hence the resistance of the bulb = 240 Ω

The rear window in a car is approximately a rectangle, 1.3 m wide and 0.30 m high. The inside rear-view mirror is 0.50 m from th
maria [59]

Answer:

Height of mirror 0.075 m

width of mirror 0.325 m  

Explanation:

given data

wide = 1.3 m

high = 0.30 m

driver’s eyes = 0.50 m

rear window = 1.50 m

solution

we take here height / width of the mirror  is

height / width   = \frac{h}{w}   .................1

and

height /width of the window is

height /width  = \frac{h_w}{w_w}   .................2

and

distance of eye / window by the mirror is

distance of eye / window = \frac{x_e}{x_w}      .................3

so here

θ = θi  = θr    ....................4

and  tanθ for vertical is

tanθ  = \frac{h}{x_e}  

tanθ  =  \frac{h_w}{(x_e + x_w)}       ....................5

so

h =   h_w \times  \frac{x_e}{(x_e + x_e)}     ....................6

put  here value and we get

h = 0.30 \times  \frac{0.50}{(0.50 + 1.50)}  

h = 0.075 m

and

when we take here tanθ for horizontal than it will be

tanθ = \frac{w}{x_e}    

tanθ = \frac{w_w}{(x_e + x_w)}       .......................7

so

w = w_w \times  \frac{x_e}{(x_e + x_w)}         ....................8

put here value and we get

w = 1.3 \times  \frac{0.50}{(0.50 + 1.50)}  

w = 0.325 m
