Formula

W = E * I

Givens

E = 5 volts

W = 15 watts

I = ?

Solution

W = E * I

15 = 5 * I

15/5 = I

I = 3 amps.   Answer

harina [27]

Answer:

    vₐ = v_c  ( \ 1 + \frac{1}{2} ( \frac{\Delta M}{M} - \frac{\Delta R}{R}) \ )

Explanation:

To calculate the escape velocity let's use the conservation of energy

starting point. On the surface of the planet

          Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v_c² - G Mm / R

final point. At a very distant point

         Em_f = U = - G Mm / R₂

energy is conserved

           Em₀ = Em_f

           ½ m v_c² - G Mm / R = - G Mm / R₂

           v_c² = 2 G M (1 /R -  1 /R₂)

if we consider the speed so that it reaches an infinite position R₂ = ∞

           v_c = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} }

now indicates that the mass and radius of the planet changes slightly

            M ’= M + ΔM = M ( 1+ \frac{\Delta M}{M} )

            R ’= R + ΔR = R ( 1 + \frac{\Delta R}{R} )

we substitute

           vₐ = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} } \  \frac{\sqrt{1+ \frac{\Delta M}{M} } }{ \sqrt{1+ \frac{ \Delta R}{R} } }

         

let's use a serial expansion

           √(1 ±x) = 1 ± ½ x +…

we substitute

         vₐ = v_ c ( (1 + \frac{1}{2}  \frac{\Delta M}{M} )  \ ( 1 - \frac{1}{2}  \frac{\Delta R}{R} ))

we make the product and keep the terms linear

        vₐ = v_c  ( \ 1 + \frac{1}{2} ( \frac{\Delta M}{M} - \frac{\Delta R}{R}) \ )

Calculate the speed of a proton after it accelerates from rest through a potential difference of 350 V.
AVprozaik [17]

The speed of a proton after it accelerates from rest through a potential difference of 350 V is 25.86 \times 10^4 ~m/s.

Initial velocity of the proton u = 0

Given potential difference \Delta V = 350V

let's assume that the speed of the proton is v,

Since the proton is accelerating through a potential difference, proton's potential energy will change with time. The potential energy of a particle of charge q when accelerated with a potential difference \Delta V is,

    U = q \Delta V

Due to Work-Energy Theorem and Conservation of Energy - <em>If there is no non-conservative force acting on a particle then loss in Potential energy  P.E must be equal to gain in Kinetic Energy K.E</em> i.e

\Delta K = \Delta V

If the initial and final velocity of the proton is u and v respectively then,

change in Kinetic Energy  \implies  \Delta K = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 -\frac{1}{2}mu^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 - 0

change in Potential Energy \implies \Delta U = q\Delta V

from conservation of energy,

             v= \sqrt{\frac{2q\Delta V}{m}}

so,         v = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 350 \times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{1.67 \times 10^{-27}}

                = 25.86 \times 10^4 ~m/s

I. What is the initial velocity of the car?
qaws [65]

Answer:

I. 0 m/s

II. 20 m/s

III. Part BC

Explanation:

I. Determination of the initial velocity.

From the diagram given above,

The motion of the car starts from the origin. This implies that the car start from rest and as such, the initial velocity of the car is 0 m/s

II. Determination of the maximum velocity attained.

From the diagram given above, we can see clearly that the maximum velocity is 20 m/s.

III. Determination of the part of the graph that represents zero acceleration.

It important that we know the meaning of zero acceleration.

Zero acceleration simply means the car is not accelerating. This can only be true when the car is moving with a constant velocity.

From the graph given above, the car has a constant velocity between B and C.

Therefore, part BC illustrates zero acceleration.

A shot-putter accelerates a 7.2 kg shot from rest to 17 m/s . what work did the shot-putter do on the ball?
garri49 [273]
<span>1.0x10^3 Joules The kinetic energy a body has is expressed as the equation E = 0.5 M V^2 where E = Energy M = Mass V = Velocity Since the shot was at rest, the initial energy is 0. Let's calculate the energy that the shot has while in motion E = 0.5 * 7.2 kg * (17 m/s)^2 E = 3.6 kg * 289 m^2/s^2 E = 1040.4 kg*m^2/s^2 E = 1040.4 J So the work performed on the shot was 1040.4 Joules. Rounding the result to 2 significant figures gives 1.0x10^3 Joules</span>

Which best describes the ages of the rocks on opposite sides of and the same distance from, A Seafloor spreading center?
Genrish500 [490]

Answer;

-The rocks are the same age

Explanation;

Seafloor spreading is the process by which the seafloor moves apart at mid-ocean ridges.  Divergent seafloor spreading occurs at this type of plate boundary.

Seafloor spreading and other tectonic activity processes are the result of mantle convection. Seafloor spreading occurs at divergent plate boundaries. As tectonic plates slowly move away from each other, heat from the mantle’s convection currents makes the crust more plastic and less dense.
