Answer:

the correct option is C

Explanation:

The intensity of a lamp depends on the power of the lamp that is provided by the current flowing over it, therefore the intensity would increase if we raise the current.

Another way to increase the intensity is to decrease the area with a focusing lens, as the intensity is power over area, decreasing the area increases the power.

When we see the possibilities we see that the correct option is C

The Gulf Stream off the east coast of the United States can flow at a rapid 3.9 m/s to the north. A ship in this current has a c
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

72.54 degree west of south

Explanation:

flow = 3.9 m/s north

speed = 11 m/s

to find out

point due west from the current position

solution

we know here water is flowing north and ship must go south at an equal rate so that the velocities cancel and the ship just goes west

so it become like triangle with 3.3 point down and the hypotenuse is 11

so by triangle

hypotenuse ×cos(angle) = adjacent side

11 ×cos(angle) = 3.3

cos(angle) = 0.3

angle = 72.54 degree west of south

1. Susan pushes her dad, David, on an ice rink with a force of 30 N. She weighs 45 kg and her dad weighs 100 kg. What are the ac
mamaluj [8]

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Force = 30N

Weight Susan = 45kg

Weight of Dad = 100kg

Unknown:

Acceleration of Susan = ?

Acceleration of Dad = ?

Solution:

                    Force = mass x acceleration

  Acceleration = \frac{force}{mass}

 Acceleration of Susan = \frac{30}{45} = 0.67m/s²

Acceleration of Dad =  \frac{30}{100}  = 0.3m/s²

Watt-hours is a measure of energy, just like kilowatt-hours. How can you convert this to Joules?
satela [25.4K]

Work with your units:

1 watt-hour = 1 (joule/second) · (hour) = 1 (joule-hour / second)

(1 joule-hour/sec) · (3600 sec/hour) = 3600 joules

So 1 watt-hour = 3,600 joules

When turned on, a fan requires 5.0 seconds to get up to its final operating rotational speed of 1200 rpm. a) How large is the fi
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

a)

125.6 rad/s

b)

25.12 rad/s²

Explanation:

a)

t = time required by the fan to get up to final operating speed = 5 sec

w = final operating rotational speed = 1200 rpm

we know that :

1 revolution = 2π rad

1 min = 60 sec

w = 1200\frac{rev}{min}\frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev}\frac{1 min}{60 sec}

w = \frac{1200\times 2\pi }{60}\frac{rad}{s}

w = 125.6 rad/s

b)

w₀ = initial angular speed = 0 rad/s

α = angular acceleration

using the equation

w = w₀ + α t

125.6 = 0 + α (5)

α = 25.12 rad/s²
