Using the relationship:
where P is the power, V is the voltage, and R the resistance, we can find the resistance of each bulb.
For the first light bulb, P = 60 W and V = 120 V, so the resistance is
For the second light bulb, P = 200 W and V = 120 V, so the resistance is
The two light bulbs are connected in series, so their equivalent resistance is
The two light bulbs are connected to a voltage of
V = 240 V
So we can find the current through the two bulbs by using Ohm's law:
B. 142.3 W
The power dissipated in the first bulb is given by:
where
I = 0.77 A is the current
is the resistance of the bulb
Substituting numbers, we get
C. 42.7 W
The power dissipated in the second bulb is given by:
where
I = 0.77 A is the current
is the resistance of the bulb
Substituting numbers, we get
D. The 60-W bulb burns out very quickly
The power dissipated by the resistance of each light bulb is equal to:
where
E is the amount of energy dissipated
t is the time interval
From part B and C we see that the 60 W bulb dissipates more power (142.3 W) than the 200-W bulb (42.7 W). This means that the first bulb dissipates energy faster than the second bulb, so it also burns out faster.
Answer:
0.7 hours
Explanation:
From the way back, we can calculate the distance between Irina's work and Irina's home. In fact, we know that the car takes 0.4 hourse traveling at 27 mph, so the distance covered should be
When Irina rides to work with her bike, she travels at a speed of 16 mph. So we can find the time she takes by dividing the total distance (10.8 miles) by her speed:
Answer:
Explanation:
Regardless of the initial velocity of the pebble, the acceleration of the pebble is equal to the gravitational acceleration which is equal to 9.8 m/s2 towards downwards direction.
This can be shown by Newton's Second Law. According to the law, the net force applied on an object is equal to mass times acceleration of that object.
During the downward motion, the only force acting on the pebble is the gravitational force, hence its acceleration is equal to gravitational acceleration.
