Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

A portable music player is operating with 4 cell batteries connected in series, and each cell has a P.D of 1.5V.

Then,

Total potential difference is

P.D_total = V1 + V2 + V3 + V4

P.D_total = 1.5 + 1.5 + 1.5 + 1.4

P.D_total = 6V.

The music player provides a resistance of 15,000Ω

R = 15,000Ω

We want to find the current (I) flowing through the music player?

Using ohms law

V = IR

Where

V is the potential difference

I is the current

R is the resistance

Therefore,

I = V/R

I = 6 / 15,000

I = 4 × 10^-4 A

I = 0.4 × 10^-3 A

I = 0.4 mA.

So, 0.4mA is passing through the music player

A car with four passengers will have a shorter braking distance than a car with one braking distance. True or false. Why?
Valentin [98]

<u>Answer:</u>

The given statement is a True statement

<u>Explanation:</u>

All cars and trucks have load capacities marked on the jamb of the driver's door, as well as the owner's manual. This is very significant for braking distance.

A heavier object will require much more braking force and distance to stop, due to New ton's law of motion. “ An object in motion will tend to stay in motion “ .A heavy object will remain in motion longer and require much more force to stop. Four wheel disc brakes are great compared to front disc and rear drum configuration, in dissipating heat, and stopping more efficiently.

A power plant produces 1000 MW to supply a city 40 km away. Current flows from the power plant on a single wire of resistance 0.
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Current = 8696 A

Fraction of power lost = \dfrac{80}{529} = 0.151

Explanation:

Electric power is given by

P=IV

where I is the current and V is the voltage.

I=\dfrac{P}{V}

Using values from the question,

I=\dfrac{1000\times10^6 \text{ W}}{115\times10^3\text{ V}} = 8696 \text{ A}

The power loss is given by

P_\text{loss} = I^2R

where R is the resistance of the wire. From the question, the wire has a resistance of 0.050\Omega per km. Since resistance is proportional to length, the resistance of the wire is

R = 0.050\times40 = 2\Omega

Hence,

P_\text{loss} = \left(\dfrac{200000}{23}\right)^2\times2

The fraction lost = \dfrac{P_\text{loss}}{P}=\left(\dfrac{200000}{23}\right)^2\times2\div (1000\times10^6)=\dfrac{80}{529}=0.151
