Answer:

a) 390J

b) 322J

c) 68J

Explanation:

We need to calculate the power given by the battery. the power is given by:

P=V*I\\I=\frac{V}{R}\\I=\frac{4}{5.9+1.2}\\I=0.56A\\P=2.24W

Watts is J/s so:

E=P*t\\E=2.24\frac{J}{s}*2.9min*(60\frac{s}{min})=390J

The thermal energy in the wire is given by:

E_w=P_w*t\\P_w=I^2*R_w=0.56^2*5.9=1.85W\\E_w=1.85\frac{J}{s}*2.9min*(60\frac{s}{min})=322J

And the the dissipated thermal energy in the battery will be the remainig energy:

E_b=E-E_w\\E_b=390-322=68J

A police officer is called to the scene of a car accident in his accident he sketches the scene and describes it according to hi
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The driver was not telling the truth because it is not possible for a car to hit another car from behind and generate a force to the sides that deflects it from its path.

Explanation:

First, we analyze the driver's statement.

The driver when arriving at the curve, is collided from behind by another car and deviates from his path and crashes into a tree. For the car to go to the tree there must be a force towards the tree.

The net force that causes the car to deviate must be formed by the sum of the motion vector of the first car plus the force that is directed towards the tree.

Here we verify that a car hitting from behind will not generate a force to the sides, but will generate a force in the same direction that the car moves, forward.

The equation for electrical power is<span>P=VI</span>where V is the voltage and I is the current. This can be rearranged to solve for I in 6(a). 6(b) can be solved with Ohm's Law<span>V=IR</span>or if you'd like, from power, after substituting Ohm's law in for I<span>P=<span><span>V2</span>R</span></span> For 7, realize that because they are in parallel, their voltages are the same. We can find the resistance of each lamp from<span>P=<span><span>V2</span>R</span></span>Then the equivalent resistance as<span><span>1<span>R∗</span></span>=<span>1<span>R1</span></span>+<span>1<span>R2</span></span></span>Then the total power as<span><span>Pt</span>=<span><span>V2</span><span>R∗</span></span></span>However, this will reveal that (with a bit of algebra)<span><span>Pt</span>=<span>P1</span>+<span>P2</span></span> For 8, again the resistance can be found as<span>P=<span><span>V2</span>R</span></span>The energy usage is simply<span><span>E=P⋅t</span></span>

Neutron stars consist only of neutrons and have unbelievably high densities. a typical mass and radius for a neutron star might
Tanya [424]
<span>Density is 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 Dime weighs 1.5x10^12 pounds The definition of density is simply mass per volume. So let's divide the mass of the neutron star by its volume. First, we need to determine the volume. Assuming the neutron star is a sphere, the volume will be 4/3 pi r^3, so 4/3 pi 1.9x10^3 = 4/3 pi 6.859x10^3 m^3 = 2.873x10^10 m^3 Now divide the mass by the volume 9.9x10^28 kg / 2.873x10^10 m^3 = 3.44588x10^18 kg/m^3 Since we only have 2 significant digits in our data, round to 2 significant digits, giving 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 Now to figure out how much the dime weighs, just multiply by the volume of the dime. 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 * 2.0x10^-7 m^3 = 6.8x10^11 kg And to convert from kg to lbs, multiply by 2.20462, so 6.8x10^11 kg * 2.20462 lb/kg = 1.5x10^12 lb</span>

A jet plane comes in for a downward dive as shown in the figure below.
xxTIMURxx [149]

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

<span>5.5 g = g + v^2/r </span><span>
<span>4.5 g = v^2/r </span>
<span>v^2 = 4.5 g * r </span>
<span>v = sqrt ( 4.5 *9.81m/s^2 * 350 m) </span>
v = 124 m/s</span>

So the pilot will black out for this dive at 124 m/s. I am hoping that these answers have satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavors, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.
