Answer:

Explanation:

Capacitor of 0.75μF, charged to 70V and connect in series with 55Ω and 140 Ω to discharge.

Energy dissipates in 55Ω resistor is given by V²/R

Since the 55ohms and 140ohms l discharge the capacitor fully, the voltage will be zero volts and this voltage will be shared by the resistor in ratio.

So for 55ohms, using voltage divider rule

V=R1/(R1+R2) ×Vt

V=55/(55+140) ×70

V=19.74Volts is across the 55ohms resistor.

Then, energy loss will be

E=V²/R

E=19.74²/55

E=7.09J

7.09J of heat is dissipated by the 55ohms resistor

A worker uses a cart to move a load of bricks weighing 680 N a distance of 10 m across a parking lot.
NNADVOKAT [17]
When you are finding work, the easiest way is to use the formula.

W = F*D

Where F is the force and D is the distance. Simply take the constant force of 209N and multiply it by the distance of 10m. Which will give you 2090J

As long as they're both on the same planet, the greater mass always has the greater weight.  In this question, Object-A has the greater mass, so it weighs more that Object-B does.

When light travels from a medium it moves faster in (such as air) to a medium it moves slower in (such as glass) its velocity de
shutvik [7]

Answer:

c) The wavelength decreases but the frequency remains the same.

Explanation:

Light travels at different speed in different mediums.

Refractive index is equal to velocity of the light 'c' in empty space divided by the velocity 'v' in the substance.

Or ,

n = c/v.

<u>The frequency of the light does not change but the wavelength of the light changes with change in the speed.</u>

c = frequency × Wavelength

Frequency is constant,

The formula can be written as:

n = λ / λn.

Where,  

λn is the wavelength in the medium

λ is the wavelength in vacuum

<u>When the light travels to glass, it speed slows down and also the wavelength decreases as both are directly proportional. There will be no effect on frequency.</u>
