A lamp draws a current of 0.50 A when it is connected to a 120 V source? What is the resistance of the lamp?
emmainna [20.7K]
Given,
Current (I) = 0.50A
Voltage (V) = 120 volts
Resistance (R) =?
We know that:-
Voltage (V) = Current (I) x Resistance (R)
→Resistance (R) = Voltage (V) / Current (I)
= 120/0.50
= 24Ω
∴ Resistance (R) = 24Ω

Coherent microwaves of wavelength 5.00 cm enter a tall, narrow window in a building otherwise essentially opaque to the microwav
zzz [600]
The solution for this problem is:

For 1st minimum, let m be equal to 1. 

d = slit width

D = screen distance. 

Θ = arcsin (m * lambda/ (d))


= 0.13934 rad, 7.9836 deg 

y = D*tan (Θ)

y = 6.50 * tan (7.9836)

= 0.91161 m is the distance from the central maximum to the first-order minimum

Each of the following diagrams shows a spaceship somewhere along the way between Earth and the Moon (not to scale); the midpoint
djyliett [7]

Answer:

F_5 >F_4>F_1 >F_2>F_3

Where F_i represent the force for each of the 5 cases i -1,2,3,4,5 presented on the figure attached.

Explanation:

For this case the figure attached shows the illustration for the problem

We have an inverse square law with distance for the force, so then the force of gravity between Earth and the spaceship is lower when the spaceship is far away from Earth.

Th formula is given by:

F = G \frac{m_{Earth} m_{Spaceship}}{r^2}

Where G is a constant G = 6.674 x10^{-11} m^2/ (ks s^2)

m_{Earth} represent the mass for the earth

m_{spaceship} represent the mass for the spaceship

r represent the radius between the earth and the spaceship

For this reason when the distance between the Earth and the Spaceship increases the Force of gravity needs to decrease since are inversely proportional the force and the radius, and for the other case when the Earth and the spaceship are near then the radius decrease and the Force increase.

Based on this case we can create the following rank:

F_5 >F_4>F_1 >F_2>F_3

Where F_i represent the force for each of the 5 cases i -1,2,3,4,5 presented on the figure attached.

The maximum Compton shift in wavelength occurs when a photon isscattered through 180^\circ .
vlabodo [156]

Answer: 90\°

Explanation:

The Compton Shift \Delta \lambda in wavelength when the photons are scattered is given by the following equation:

\Delta \lambda=\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)     (1)

Where:

\lambda_{c}=2.43(10)^{-12} m is a constant whose value is given by \frac{h}{m_{e}c}, being h the Planck constant, m_{e} the mass of the electron and c the speed of light in vacuum.

\theta) the angle between incident phhoton and the scatered photon.

We are told the maximum Compton shift in wavelength occurs when a photon isscattered through 180\°:

\Delta \lambda_{max}=\lambda_{c}(1-cos(180\°))     (2)

\Delta \lambda_{max}=\lambda_{c}(1-(-1))    

\Delta \lambda_{max}=2\lambda_{c}     (3)

Now, let's find the angle that will produce a fourth of this maximum value found in (3):

\frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{4}2\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)      (4)

\frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{2}\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)      (5)

If we want \frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{2}\lambda_{c}, 1-cos\theta   must be equal to 1:

1-cos\theta=1   (6)

Finding \theta:

1-1=cos\theta

0=cos\theta  

\theta=cos^{-1} (0)  

Finally:

\theta=90\°    This is the scattering angle that will produce \frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}
