Answer:

Power, P is equal to 10 watts.

Explanation:

Given the following parameters;

Voltage drop, V = 50volts.

Resistance, R = 250ohms.

Power, P =?

The power developed in an electrical circuit is given by;

$P = IV$ ......equation 1

But we also know that;

Ohm's law states that at constant temperature, the current flowing in an electrical circuit is directly proportional to the voltage applied across the two points and inversely proportional to the resistance in the electrical circuit.

Mathematically, V = IR

Making I the subject of formula;

I = V/R

Substituting into equation 1;

$P = (V²)/R$

P = (50²)/250

P = 2500/250

P = 10 watts.

In Newton's Third law of motion, the 'action' and 'reaction' forces act on different objects. That's why they don't cancel each other out and always result in zero force.

A circular hole in an aluminum plate is 2.739 cm in diameter at 0.000°C. What is the change in its diameter when the temperature

prisoha [69]

Answer:

$L = 2.746 cm$

Explanation:

As we know that thermal expansion coefficient of aluminium is given as

$\alpha = 24 \times 10^{-6} per ^oC$

now we also know that after thermal expansion the final length is given as

$L = L_o(1 + \alpha \Delta T)$

here we know that

$L_o = 2.739 cm$

$\alpha = 24 \times 10^{-6}$

$\Delta T = 108 - 0= 108^oC$

now we will have

$L = 2.739(1 + 24 \times 10^{-6} (108))$

$L = 2.746 cm$

A book falls off a shelf that is 10.0 m tall. What is the velocity at which the book hits the ground?

Elena L [17]

Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the book is a free fall motion, so it is an uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground. Therefore we can find the final velocity by using the equation:

$v^2 = u^2 + 2gd$
