House current is 120 volts. If a light bulb runs a current of 10 amps, what is the resistance?
nlexa [21]

Answer:

12 ohms

Explanation:

Ohm's Law tells the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance.

It can be written in three different ways, depending on which ones you know,

and which one you want to find.

Here's the one we need:        

                          Resistance  =  (voltage) divided by (current)

                                              =  (120 V)  /  (10 Amp)

                                              =          12 ohms .

A sound wave traveling downward with a speed of about 4000 m per 2nd suddenly slows to 1500 m per 2nd not far below the Earth's
Helga [31]

Answer: the waves probably hits an open cavity

Explanation:

Sound waves transfers energy in form of vibration through water,the speed of sound is greatest in solids followed by liquids and gases,for we to observe such a reduction from 4000m/s to 1500m/s that means it sound had been transmitted through air like open cavity seen in intrusive rock beneath the earth.

I have a question regarding friction in rolling without slipping.
Solnce55 [7]

Explanation:

They probably put "rolls without slipping" in there to indicate that there is no loss in friction; or that the friction is constant throughout the movement of the disk. So it's more of a contingency part of the explanation of the problem.

(Remember how earlier on in Physics lessons, we see "ignore friction" written into problems; it just removes the "What about [ ]?" question for anyone who might ask.)

In this case, you can't ignore friction because the disk wouldn't roll without it.

As far as friction producing a torque... I would say that friction is a result of the torque in this case. And because the point of contact is, presumably, the ground, the friction is tangential to the disk. Meaning the friction is linear and has no angular component.

(You could probably argue that by Newton's 3rd Law there should be some opposing torque, but I think that's outside of the scope of this problem.)

Hopefully this helps clear up the misunderstanding for you.

A light spectrum is formed on the screen using a diffraction grating. The entire apparatus made up of laser, grating and the scr
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

the points are closer to each other

Explanation:

The expression for the diffraction of a grating is

         d sin θ = m λ

         sin θ = m λ / d            (1)

where d is the distance between slits and m is the order of diffraction, the most general is to work in the order m = 1, the angle te is the angle of diffraction

When we immerse the apparatus in a medium with refractive index n = 1.33, the light emitted by the laser must comply

         v = λ f

where v is the speed of light in the medium, the frequency remains constant

velocity and refractive index are related

          n = c / v

          v = c / n

we substitute

          c / n = λf

          λ = \frac{c}{f}  \ \frac{1}{n}

          λ = λ₀ / m

where λ₀ is the wavelength in vacuum

we substitute is equation 1

         d sin θ = m λ₀ / n

         sin θ =  λ₀/ n d

         sin θ = \frac{1}{n}  sin θ₀

we can see that the value of the sine is redueced since the refractive index is greater than 1,

consequently the points are closer to each other
