An ac generator with peak voltage 100 volts is placed across a 10-? resistor. What is the average power dissipated?

1 answer:

3 0

The correct answer is: Average Power = 500 W

Explanation:
Root-mean square voltage = Vrms = Vpeak /√2 = 100 / √2 volts
Resistance = R = 10 Ω
Average power = Pavg = (Vrms)^2<span> / R </span>= (100 * 100) / (2 * 10) = <span>500 W</span>

Car B has the same mass as Car A but is going twice as fast. If the same constant force brings both cars to a stop, how far will

evablogger [386]

Answer:four times

Explanation:

Given

mass of both cars A and B are same suppose m

but velocity of car B is same as of car A

Suppose velocity of car A is u

Velocity of car B is 2 u

A constant force is applied on both the cars such that they come to rest by travelling certain distance

using to find the distance traveled

where, v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration(offered by force)

s=displacement

final velocity is zero

For car A

$0-(u)^2=2\times a\times s$

$s_a=\frac{u^2}{2a}------1$

For car B

$0-(2u)^2=2\times a\times s_b$

$s_b=\frac{4u^2}{2a}----2$

divide 1 and 2 we get

$\frac{s_a}{s_b}=\frac{1}{4}$

thus $s_b=4\cdot s_a$

distance traveled by car B is four time of car A

You leave on a 450 miles trip in order to attend a meeting that will start 10.8 hours after you begin your trip. Along the way y

Lorico [155]

Answer:2.6 h

Explanation:

Given

Total Trip distance=450 miles

Meeting starts after 10.8 hours

safe Fastest speed is 55 mi/h

so if he drives all the to the meeting with max speed then it takes $=\frac{450}{55}=8.181 h$

and total allowable time is 10.8

Therefore longest time he can spend over dinner is $10.8-8.181 \approx 2.6 hours$

makkiz [27]

Answer:

0 N

Explanation:

suppose, you push a box with 5 N, and another person pushes the box on the opposite side of the box with 5 N, the net force (resultant ) is 0 N, the box will not move if it wasn't moving

hope this helps
