According to ohm's law
V=IR
Or R=V/I
R=12/0.5
R=24ohm

According to Ohm's Law, the resistance, current and voltage are related as:

V = IR
⇒
R = V/I

V is given to be 12 Volts.
I is given to be 0.5 Ampere

So, resistance will be:

R = 12/0.5 = 24 ohms

A 0.400-kg ice puck, moving east with a speed of 5.86 m/s , has a head-on collision with a 0.900-kg puck initially at rest.

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

a) The final speed of the 0.400-kg puck after the collision is 2.254 meters per second, b) The negative sign of the solution found in part a) indicates that 0.400-kg puck is moving westwards, c) The speed of the 0.900-kg puck after the collision is 3.606 meters per second eastwards.

Explanation:

a) Since collision is perfectly elastic and there are no external forces exerted on pucks system, the phenomenon must be modelled after the Principles of Momentum and Energy Conservation. Changes in gravitational potential energy can be neglected. That is:

Momentum

$m_{1}\cdot v_{1,o} + m_{2}\cdot v_{2,o} = m_{1}\cdot v_{1,f} + m_{2}\cdot v_{2,f}$

Energy

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot (m_{1}\cdot v_{1,o}^{2}+ m_{2}\cdot v_{2,o}^{2})=\frac{1}{2}\cdot (m_{1}\cdot v_{1,f}^{2}+ m_{2}\cdot v_{2,f}^{2})$

$m_{1}\cdot v_{1,o}^{2} + m_{2}\cdot v_{2,o}^{2} = m_{1}\cdot v_{1,f}^{2} + m_{2}\cdot v_{2,f}^{2}$

Where:

$m_{1}$ , $m_{2}$ - Masses of the 0.400-kg and 0.900-kg pucks, measured in kilograms.

$v_{1,o}$ , $v_{2,o}$ - Initial speeds of the 0.400-kg and 0.900-kg pucks, measured in meters per second.

$v_{1}$ , $v_{2}$ - Final speeds of the 0.400-kg and 0.900-kg pucks, measured in meters per second.

If $m_{1} = 0.400\,kg$ , $m_{2} = 0.900\,kg$ , $v_{1,o} = +5.86\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $v_{2,o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ , the system of equation is simplified as follows:

$2.344\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s} = 0.4\cdot v_{1,f} + 0.9\cdot v_{2,f}$

$13.736\,J = 0.4\cdot v_{1,f}^{2}+0.9\cdot v_{2,f}^{2}$

Let is clear $v_{1,f}$ in first equation:

$0.4\cdot v_{1,f} = 2.344 - 0.9\cdot v_{2,f}$

$v_{1,f} = 5.86-2.25\cdot v_{2,f}$

Now, the same variable is substituted in second equation and resulting expression is simplified and solved afterwards:

$13.736 = 0.4\cdot (5.86-2.25\cdot v_{2,f})^{2}+0.9\cdot v_{2,f}^{2}$

$13.736 = 0.4\cdot (34.340-26.37\cdot v_{2,f}+5.063\cdot v_{2,f}^{2})+0.9\cdot v_{2,f}^{2}$

$13.736 = 13.736-10.548\cdot v_{2,f} +2.925\cdot v_{2,f}^{2}$

$2.925\cdot v_{2,f}^{2}-10.548\cdot v_{2,f} = 0$

$2.925\cdot v_{2,f}\cdot (v_{2,f}-3.606) = 0$

There are two solutions:

$v_{2,f} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ or $v_{2,f} = 3.606\,\frac{m}{s}$

The first root coincides with the conditions before collision and the second one represents a physically reasonable solution.

Now, the final speed of the 0.400-kg puck is: ( $v_{2,f} = 3.606\,\frac{m}{s}$ )

$v_{1,f} = 5.86-2.25\cdot (3.606)$

$v_{1,f} = -2.254\,\frac{m}{s}$

The final speed of the 0.400-kg puck after the collision is 2.254 meters per second.

b) The negative sign of the solution found in part a) indicates that 0.400-kg puck is moving westwards.

c) The speed of the 0.900-kg puck after the collision is 3.606 meters per second eastwards.

It takes at least 4 people to push a refrigerator up a 10-meter ramp. How many people would be needed to push the same refrigera

vaieri [72.5K]

Double the amount of people because the ramp went from 10-meter to 20-meter, so times by 2. 4 times 2 is 8.
The answer is 8 people.

If the given wave has a frequency of 100 Hz, what frequency will the sixth harmonic have?

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

600Hz

Explanation:

In electrical systems of alternating current, the harmonics are, as in acoustics, frequencies multiples of the fundamental working frequency of the system and whose amplitude decreases as the multiple increases. For example, if we have systems fed by the 50 Hz network, harmonics of 100, 150, 200, etc. may appear.

In our case having a fundamental wave of 100Hz, I can have harmonics of 200,300,400, ..., 600Hz
