Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

Current= (3.0volts) / (9.8 ohms) =<em> 0.306 ampere</em> = 306 milliamperes (mA)

Answer:

An electric bell is placed inside a transparent glass jar. The bell can be turned on and off using a switch on the outside of the jar. A vacuum is created inside the jar by sucking out the air. Then the bell is rung using the switch. What will we see and hear?

A.

We’ll see the bell move, but we won’t hear it ring.

B.

We won’t see the bell move, but we’ll hear it ring.

C.

We’ll see the bell move and hear it ring.

D.

We won’t see the bell move or hear it ring.

E.

We’ll see the sound waves exit the vacuum pump.

Explanation:

so, the answer to the question is

A merry-go-round with a rotational inertia of 600 kg m2 and a radius of 3. 0 m is initially at rest. A 20 kg boy approaches the

Margaret [11]

Hi there!

$\boxed{\omega = 0.38 rad/sec}$

We can use the conservation of angular momentum to solve.

$\large\boxed{L_i = L_f}$

Recall the equation for angular momentum:

$L = I\omega$

We can begin by writing out the scenario as a conservation of angular momentum:

$I_m\omega_m + I_b\omega_b = \omega_f(I_m + I_b)$

$I_m$ = moment of inertia of the merry-go-round (kgm²)

$\omega_m$ = angular velocity of merry go round (rad/sec)

$\omega_f$ = final angular velocity of COMBINED objects (rad/sec)

$I_b$ = moment of inertia of boy (kgm²)

$\omega_b$ = angular velocity of the boy (rad/sec)

The only value not explicitly given is the moment of inertia of the boy.

Since he stands along the edge of the merry go round:

$I = MR^2$

We are given that he jumps on the merry-go-round at a speed of 5 m/s. Use the following relation:

$\omega = \frac{v}{r}$

$L_b = MR^2(\frac{v}{R}) = MRv$

Plug in the given values:

$L_b = (20)(3)(5) = 300 kgm^2/s$

Now, we must solve for the boy's moment of inertia:

$I = MR^2\\I = 20(3^2) = 180 kgm^2$

Use the above equation for conservation of momentum:

$600(0) + 300 = \omega_f(180 + 600)\\\\300 = 780\omega_f\\\\\omega = \boxed{0.38 rad/sec}$

An object is 50 cm from a converging lens with a focal length of 40 cm . A real image is formed on the other side of the lens, 2

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

d) -4.0

Explanation:

The magnification of a lens is given by

$M=-\frac{q}{p}$

where

M is the magnification

q is the distance of the image from the lens

p is the distance of the object from the lens

In this problem, we have

p = 50 cm is the distance of the object from the lens

q = 250 cm - 50 cm is the distance of the image from the lens (because the image is 250 cm from the obejct

Also, q is positive since the image is real

So, the magnification is

$M=-\frac{200 cm}{50 cm}=-4.0$
