A computer is connected across a 110 V power supply. The computer dissipates 123 W of power in the form of electromagnetic radia
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

81.3ohms

Explanation:

Resistance is known to provide opposition to the flow of electric current in an electric circuit.

Power dissipated by the computer is expressed as;

Power = current (I) × Voltage(V)

P = IV... (1)

Note that from ohms law, V = IR

I = V/R ... (2)

Substituting equation 2 into 1, we will have;

P = (V/R)×V

P = V²/R.. (3)

Given source voltage = 100V, Power dissipated = 123W

To get resistance R of the computer, we will substitute the given value into equation 3 to have

123 = 100²/R

R = 100²/123

R = 10,000/123

R = 81.3ohms

The resistance of the computer is 81.3ohms

George is applying a downward force of 50N to and object that has a mass of 50kg. What is the normal force (FN) of the object wh
attashe74 [19]

The normal force acting on the object is 500 N in the upward direction

<u>Explanation:</u>

As George is applying a downward force, the normal force will be in the upward direction. The normal force will be exerted due to the acceleration due to gravity exerted on the object.

So, as per Newton's second law, the normal force acting on the object can be measured by the product of mass of the object and the acceleration due to gravity acting on the object.

But as the acceleration due to gravity is a downward acting acceleration and the normal force is a upward acting force, so the acceleration will be having a negative sign in the formula.

Normal\ force = Mass \times Acceleration\ due\ to\ gravity

Here, acceleration due to gravity g = -10 m/s² and mass is given as 50 kg, then

Normal force = 50 × (-10) = -500 N

So, the normal force acting on the object is 500 N in the upward direction.

When the displacement of a mass on a spring is 12 a the half of the amplitude, what fraction of the mechanical energy is kinetic
Sveta_85 [38]
You know that when the displacement is equal to the amplitude (A), the velocity is zero, which implies that the kinetic energy (KE) is zeero, so the total mechanical energy (ME) is the potential energy (PE).

And you know that the potential energy, PE, is [ 1/2 ] k (x^2)

Then, use x = A, to calculate the PE in the point where ME = PE.

ME = PE = [1/2] k (A)^2.

At half of the amplitude, x = A/2 => PE = [ 1/2] k (A/2)^2

=> PE = [1/4] { [1/2]k(A)^2 } = .[1/4] ME

So, if PE is 1/4 of ME, KE is 3/4 of ME.

And the answer is 3/4
