Given Information:  

Resistance = R = 250 Ω

Voltage = V = 3 V

Tolerance =   ±5%

Required Information:  

Maximum current = Imax = ?

Minimum current = Imin = ?

Answer:  

Imax = 12.6 uA

Imin = 11.4 uA

Explanation:  

As we know from Ohm's law

I = V/R

The current will be maximum when R is minimum and the current will be minimum when R is maximum

Rmax = 250,000 + 0.05*250,000

Rmax = 250,000 + 12500

Rmax = 262500 Ω

Rmin = 250,000 - 0.05*250,000

Rmin = 250,000 - 12500

Rmin = 237500 Ω

Imax = V/Rmin

Imax = 3/237500

Imax = 12.6 uA

Imin = V/Rmax

Imin = 3/262500

Imin = 11.4 uA

When you and a friend move a couch to another room you exert a force of 75 N over 5m how much work will you do
sesenic [268]

The work done is 375 J

Explanation:

The work done by a force in moving an object is given by

W=Fd cos \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement

In this problem,

F = 75 N is the force applied to the couch

d = 5 m is the displacement

Assuming the force applied to the couch is parallel to the motion, \theta=0

And so, the work done is

W=(75)(5)(cos 0)=375 J

Example: A wooden crate with mass 100kg is at rest on a stone floor. You know that the coefficients of kinetic and static fricti
alexgriva [62]

Answer

Any force greater 490N

Explanation

The force required just to make an object slide over a rough horizontal surface is any force greater that the static friction which given by;

F=\mu_s mg.............(1)

Given;

\mu_s=0.5\\m=100kg\\g=9.8m/s^2

Hence;

F = 0.5 x 100 x 9.8

F = 490N.

We will only need the coefficient of kinetic friction if we were asked to find the force required to keep the object moving uniformly. Usually, the force needed to keep an object moving uniformly over a rough surface is lesser that which is needed to start its motion.

In this problem, we were only asked to find the minimum force required to make the object move which we have done.

A Ray of light in air is incident on an air to glass boundary at an angle of 30. degrees with the normal. If the index of refrac
elena55 [62]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Snell's law states:

n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

where n is the index of refraction and θ is the angle of incidence (relative to the normal).

The index of refraction of air is approximately 1.  So:

1 sin 30° = 1.52 sin θ

θ ≈ 19°
