Answer:

(a) When the resistance R is doubled, I = 1 A

(b) When the peak emf εo is doubled, I = 4 A

(c)  When the frequency ω is doubled, I = 2 A

Explanation:

Given;

peak current through the resistor, I = 2.0 A

According to ohms law the peak current through the circuit is given by;

I = \frac{V}{R}

(a) When the resistance R is doubled;

I = \frac{V_R}{R} \\\\I_1R_1 = I_2R_2\\\\I_2 = \frac{I_1R_1}{R_2} \\\\I_2 =  \frac{2*R_1}{2R_1} \\\\I_2 = 1 \ A

(b)When the peak emf εo is doubled

I = \frac{V}{R} = \frac{\epsilon_o}{R} \\\\R = \frac{\epsilon_ o}{I} \\\\\frac{\epsilon_ o_1}{I_1}  = \frac{\epsilon_ o_2}{I_2} \\\\I_2 = \frac{\epsilon_ o_2 *I_1}{\epsilon _o_1} \\\\I_2 = \frac{2 \epsilon_ o_1 *2}{\epsilon _o_1} \\\\I_2 = 4 \ A

(c) When the frequency ω is doubled

Peak current through resistor is independent of frequency

I₂ = 2.0 A

Answer:

Energy due to air resistance = 31.8 Joules

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another

Kinetic Energy + Energy due to air resistance = Potential energy..........(1)

If there is no energy loss due to air resistance, potential energy = kinetic energy

mass, m = 1.5 kg

height, h = 4.0 m

speed, v = 6 m/s

Kinetic energy = 0.5 mv²

Kinetic energy = 0.5 * 1.5 * 6²

Kinetic energy = 27 Joules

Potential Energy = mgh

Potential energy = 1.5 * 9.8 * 4

Potential energy = 58.8 Joules

From equation (1)

27 + Energy due to air resistance = 58.8

Energy due to air resistance = 58.8 - 27

Energy due to air resistance = 31.8 Joules

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

the reason for the acceleration month that the coefficient of kinetic friction is less than the coefficient of satic frictionExplanation:

This exercise uses Newton's second law with the condition that the acceleration is zero, by the time the body begins to slide. At this point the balance of forces is

    fr- w || = 0

The expression for friction force is that it is proportional to the coefficient of friction by normal.

    fr = μ N

When the system is immobile, the coefficient of friction is called static coefficient and has a value, this is due to the union between  the surface, when the movement begins some joints are broken giving rise to coefficient of kinetic friction less than static.  

In consequence a lower friction force, which is why the system comes out of balance and begins to accelerate.

      μ kinetic <μ static

  In all this movement the normal with changed that the angle of the table remains fixed.

Consequently, the reason for the acceleration month that the coefficient of kinetic friction is less than the coefficient of satic friction

A _______ is a repeating disturbance or vibration that transfers or moves energy from place to place without transporting mass.
Harman [31]

Answer: wave

Explanation:

These are the basic definitions and characteristic of the terms given, which show tha the only rigth answer is the second option: wave.

1) Force is an interaction. There are four natural forces: electrostatic, gravity, strong nuclear force and weak nuclear force.

2) Wave: is a sequence of pulses or vibrations that cause the continuous transportation of energy (propagation). There is not transport of mass, only energy.

Some examples of waves are sound waves, electromagnetic waves (light, radio waves, micro waves, infrarred waves, ultraviolet waves).

3) Vacuum: is the absence of matter; empty space. Only electromagnetic waves can travel through vacuum; other waves need a medium to travel.

4) Medium: any matter is a medium: a solid, the air, a liquid, all of them are media through which waves can transport its energy, depending of the wavelength.
