Explanation:

Given that,

Current, I = 0.015 A

Voltage, V = 240 volts

We need to find the resistance. Using Ohm's law we can find it as follows :

$V=IR\\\\R=\dfrac{V}{I}\\\\R=\dfrac{240}{0.015}\\\\R=16000\ \Omega$

So, When a current of 0.015 A passes through human body at 240 volts p.d it causes 16000 ohms of resistance.

A bug flies at a velocity of 0.75 m/s into an oncoming breeze blowing at 0.25 m/s. What is the resultant velocity of the bug?

MakcuM [25]

0.5m/s. Take the velocity of the bug and subtract from the velocity of the oncoming breeze because they are opposite. If the breeze was in the same direction that the bug was flying, then your answer would be the sum of the two.

Which statement is true of all matter?

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

D. It must have mass and volume

Explanation:

In science, matter is referred to as any substance that has weight and occupies space. This means that the substance must have a MASS of its own when weighed and also a VOLUME.

Matter include elements, molecules, humans, etc. In fact, almost every substance on Earth is considered MATTER. Therefore, the fact that a substance must "have mass and volume" is true for all matter.

NikAS [45]

Answer:

M = 0.730*m

V = 0.663*v

Explanation:

Data Given:

$v_{bullet, initial} = v\\v_{bullet, final} = 0.516*v\\v_{paper, initial} = 0\\v_{paper, final} = V\\mass_{bullet} = m\\mass_{paper} = M\\Loss Ek = 0.413 Ek$

Conservation of Momentum:

$P_{initial} = P_{final}\\m*v_{i} = m*0.516v_{i} + M*V\\0.484m*v_{i} = M*V .... Eq1$

Energy Balance:

$\frac{1}{2}*m*v^2_{i} = \frac{1}{2}*m*(0.516v_{i})^2 + \frac{1}{2}*M*V^2 + 0.413*\frac{1}{2}*m*v^2_{i}\\\\0.320744*m*v^2_{i} = M*V^2\\\\M = \frac{0.320744*m*v^2_{i} }{V^2} ....... Eq 2$
