Answer:

144 W

Explanation:

The power absorbed by a resistor is the product of the current passing through it and the voltage drop across it. Hence

P=IV

P=12\text{ A}\times12\text{ V}=144 \text{ W}

Other variations of this formula are derived using Ohm's law, V=IR

P=I^2R=\dfrac{V^2}{R}

R is the resistance of the resistor. It is what causes the voltage drop.

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

a. 41.96ft/s

b. 1.096s

Explanation:

a. v²=u²+2gs

v²=31²+2×10×40

V=41.96ft/s

b. t=(v-u) /g

t=(41.96-31)/10

t=1.096s

An elevator cable breaks when a 925-kg elevator is 28.5 m above the top of a huge spring Ak = 8.00 * 104 N????mB at the bottom o
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

a) = 258352.5J

b) = 23.63 m/s

c) = 1.8m

Explanation:

Data;

Mass = 925kg

Distance (s) = 28.5m

Force constant (k) = 8.0*10⁴ N/m

g = 9.8 m/s²

a) = work = force * distance

But force = mass * acceleration

Force = 925 * 9.8 = 9065N

Work = F * s = 9065 * 28.5 = 258352.5J

b) acceleration (a) = (v² - u²) / 2s

a = v² / 2s

v² = a * 2s

v² = 9.8 * (2 * 28.5)

v² = 9.8 * 57

v² = 558.6

v = √(558.6)

V = 23.63 m/s

C). The work stops when the work done to raise the spring equals the work done to stop it by the spring

W = ½kx²

258352.5 = ½ * 8.0*10⁴ * x²

(2 * 258352.5) = 8.0*10⁴x²

516705 = 8.0*10⁴x²

X² = 516705 / 8.0*10⁴

X² = 6.46

X = √(6.46)

X = 2.54m

The compression was about 2.54m

Nataly [62]

Answer

given,

mass of ball, m = 57.5 g = 0.0575 kg

velocity of ball northward,v = 26.7 m/s

mass of racket, M = 331 g = 0.331 Kg

velocity of the ball after collision,v' = 29.5 m/s

a) momentum of ball before collision

   P₁ = m v

   P₁ = 0.0575 x 26.7

   P₁ = 1.535 kg.m/s

b) momentum of ball after collision

   P₂ = m v'

   P₂ = 0.0575 x (-29.5)

   P₂ = -1.696 kg.m/s

c) change in momentum

    Δ P = P₂ - P₁

    Δ P = -1.696 -1.535

    Δ P = -3.231 kg.m/s

d) using conservation of momentum

  initial speed of racket = 0 m/s

  M u + m v = Mu' + m v

  M x 0 + 0.0575 x 26.7 = 0.331 x u' + 0.0575 x (-29.5)

  0.331 u' = 3.232

     u' = 9.76 m/s

change in velocity of the racket is equal to 9.76 m/s
