Answer:

$R\approx12.43 \,\, \Omega$

Explanation:

We can use Ohm's Law to find the resistance R of a wire that carries a current I under a given potential difference:

$V=I\,\,R\\R = \frac{V}{I} \\R=\frac{87}{7} \\R\approx12.43 \,\, \Omega$

Answer:

Ohm's law states that I=V/R (Current=volts divided by resistance). Since we're looking for resistance, we'll rewrite it as R=V/I. Then just plug in the numbers; R=84/9, R= 9 1/3 or 28/3. The resistance of the wire is 9.33... or 9 1/3 ohm's, depending on how you wanna write it.

Hope it helped u if yes mark me BRAINLIEST!

Tysm!

I would appreciate it!

a lorry travels 3600m on a test track accelerating constantly at 3m/s squared from standstill. what is the final velocity (3 sig

suter [353]

The final velocity of the truck is found as 146.969 m/s.

Explanation:

As it is stated that the lorry was in standstill position before travelling a distance or covering a distance of 3600 m, the initial velocity is considered as zero. Then, it is stated that the lorry travels with constant acceleration. So we can use the equations of motion to determine the final velocity of the lorry when it reaches 3600 m distance.

Thus, a initial velocity (u) = 0, acceleration a = 3 m/s² and the displacement s is 3600 m. The third equation of motion should be used to determine the final velocity as below.

$2as =v^{2} - u^{2} \\\\v^{2} = 2as + u^{2}$
