A falling object (directly downward) is slowed down by air resistance. In turn it would take longer to fall.

Answer:

P = 0.25 W

Explanation:

Given that,

The emf of the battry, E = 2 V

The resistance of a bulb, R = 16 ohms

We need to find the power delivered to the bulb. We know that, the formula for the power delivered is given by :

$P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}\\\\P=\dfrac{2^2}{16}\\\\=0.25\ W$

So, 0.25 W power is delivered to the bulb.

A bungee jumper of mass m = 65 kg jumps from a bridge.

yawa3891 [41]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply energy conservation.

By definition we know that kinetic energy is equal to potential energy, therefore

PE = KE

$mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Where,

m = mass

g = gravitaty constat

v = velocity

h = height

Re-arrange to find h,

$h=\frac{v^2}{2g}$

Replacing with our values

$h=\frac{26^2}{2*9.8}$

$h = 34.498\approx 34.5m$

Therefore the correct answer is C.

Is the force of gravity stronger on a piece of paper when it is crumpled? is the force of gravity stronger on a piece of iron th

Kipish [7]

No, gravity pulls every object with the same force irrespective of its shape, size place etc.

Therefore the force of gravity on the iron and wooden piece of same mass is same. Also the force of gravity is same on the crumpled piece of paper as that of plain paper.

Force of gravity is always same.
