Answer:

3 mA.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Resistor (R) = 500 Ω

Potential difference (V) = 1.5 V

Current (I) =.?

Using the ohm's law equation, we can obtain the current as follow:

V = IR

1.5 = I x 500

Divide both side by 500

I = 1.5 / 500

I = 3×10¯³ A.

Therefore, the current in the circuit is 3×10¯³ A.

Finally, we shall convert 3×10¯³ A to milliampere (mA).

This can be obtained as follow:

Recall:

1 A = 1000 mA

Therefore,

3×10¯³ A = 3×10¯³ × 1000 = 3 mA

Therefore, 3×10¯³ A is equivalent to 3 mA.

Thus, the current in mA flowing through the circuit is 3 mA.

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

λ = 451.7 nm

Explanation:

The expression for the constructive interference of the double diffraction experiment is

          d sin θ = m λ

let's use trigonometry

          tan θ = y / L

   

how the experiment occurs at very small angles

          tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ

          sin θ = y / L

we substitute

         d y / L = m λ  

         λ = \frac{d \ y}{m \ L}

let's calculate

          λ = \frac{0.342 \ 10^{-3} \ 2.80 \ 10^{-3} }{1 \ 2.12 }

          λ = 4.51699 10⁻⁷ m

          λ = 4.517 10⁻⁷ m (109 nm / 1m)

          λ = 451.7 nm

I need help in my physics class and show me how it’s done
Korolek [52]

If we have the angle and magnitude of a vector A we can find its Cartesian components using the following formula

A_x = |A|cos(\alpha)\\\\A_y = |A|sin(\alpha)

Where | A | is the magnitude of the vector and \alpha is the angle that it forms with the x axis in the opposite direction to the hands of the clock.

In this problem we know the value of Ax and Ay and we need the angle \alpha.

Vector A is in the 4th quadrant

So:

A_x = 6\\\\A_y = -6.5

So:

|A| = \sqrt{6^2 + (-6.5)^2}\\\\|A| = 8.846

So:

Ay = -6.5 = 8.846cos(\alpha)\\\\sin(\alpha) = \frac{-6.5}{8.846}\\\\sin(\alpha) = -0.7348\\\\\alpha = sin^{- 1}(- 0.7348)

\alpha = -47.28 ° +360° = 313 °

\alpha = 313 °

Option 4.

The relationship between an object's acceleration and its mass
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Newton's second law

Explanation:

The relationship between mass and acceleration is described in Newton's Second Law of Motion. His Second Law states that the more mass an object has, more force is necessary for it to accelerate.

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Here the source is moving away from the observer so frequency will be smaller than the actual frequency and since the speed is increasing so the frequency is decreasing with time so correct answer is

D) lower than the original pitch and decreasing as he falls.

Explanation:

As we know by the Doppler's effect of sound we have

so we will have

f = f_o(\frac{v}{v + v_s})

so here when source moves away from the observer with a some speed then the frequency of the sound observed by the observer is smaller than the actual frequency

Here we know that the speed of the source is increasing with time as the source is falling under gravity

So we can say that the pitch of the sound will decrease with time

A stuffed toy with a mass of 0.900 kilograms sits on the edge of a bed at a height of 0.830 if the toy falls off the bed what wi
Olenka [21]
Mechanical energy (ME) is the sum of potential energy (PE) and kinetic energy (KE). When the toy falls, energy is converted from PE to KE, but by conservation of energy, ME (and therefore PE+KE) will remain the same.

Therefore, ME at 0.500 m is the same as ME at 0.830 m (the starting point). It's easier to calculate ME at the starting point because its just PE we need to worry about (but if we wanted to we could calculate the instantaneous PE and KE at 0.500 m too and add them to get the same answer).

At the start:

ME = PE = mgh
ME = 0.900 (9.8) (0.830)
ME = 7.32 J
