Answer:

$Power=V\, I$ which corresponds to the second option shown: "voltage times amperage"

Explanation:

The electric power is the work done to move a charge Q across a given difference of potential V per unit of time.

Since such electrical work is the product of the potential difference V times the charge that moves through that potential, and this work is to be calculated by the unit of time, we need to divide the product by time (t) which leads to the following final simple equation:

$Power=\frac{V\,Q}{t} =V\,\frac{Q}{t} = V\, I$

Notice that we replaced the quotient representing charge per unit of time (Q/t) by the actual current running through the circuit.

This corresponds to the second option shown in the question: "Voltage times amperage".

What is the objective lens?

Monica [59]

Answer:

The objective lens is an optical tool used to focus an image.

Explanation:

The objective lens is an optical tool that collects light emitted by an object under observation and focuses the rays of light in order to form a real and magnified image They are used in optical instruments like microscopes, cameras, telescopes, etc. and are also referred as objective or object glasses.

Select all that apply. There MIGHT be more than one.

I believe the answer to your question is “Lithosphere plate boundaries”

The planet Earth is covered by a layer formed by land and rocks called the earth's crust or lithosphere. This crust is not smooth and uniform, but rather irregular and composed of tectonic plates, also called lithosphere plates. These plates are not fixed as they are under the magma (high temperature molten rock).

Hope this helps!:)

Suppose your local apparent solar time is 11 am, and you have a clock that says it is noon in Greenwich. What is your longitude

jeyben [28]

The longitude based on the time difference is 15 degrees.

<h3>Longitude of complete rotation of the Earth</h3>

The longitude of a complete rotation of the earth in a 24 hours is calculated as follows;

$= \frac{360^0}{24} = 15^0 \ of \ longitude$

<h3>Time difference</h3>

The time difference between the local apparent solar time and the Greenwich time is calculated as follows;

$t = 12 pm \ - \ 11 am\\\\t = 1 \ hour$

Since it is one hour time difference, the longitude is 15 degrees.

An infant's toy has a 120 g wooden animal hanging from a spring. If pulled down gently, the animal oscillates up and down with a

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

0.37 m

Explanation:

The angular frequency, ω, of a loaded spring is related to the period, T, by

$\omega = \dfrac{2\pi}{T}$

The maximum velocity of the oscillation occurs at the equilibrium point and is given by

$v = \omega A$

A is the amplitude or maximum displacement from the equilibrium.

$v = \dfrac{2\pi A}{T}$

From the the question, T = 0.58 and A = 25 cm = 0.25 m. Taking π as 3.142,

$v = \dfrac{2\times3.142\times0.25\text{ m}}{0.58\text{ s}} = 2.71 \text{ m/s}$

To determine the height we reached, we consider the beginning of the vertical motion as the equilibrium point with velocity, v. Since it is against gravity, acceleration of gravity is negative. At maximum height, the final velocity is 0 m/s. We use the equation

$v_f^2 = v_i^2+2ah$

$v_f$ is the final velocity, $v_i$ is the initial velocity (same as v above), a is acceleration of gravity and h is the height.

$h = \dfrac{v_f^2 - v_i^2}{2a}$

$h = \dfrac{0^2 - 2.71^2}{2\times-9.81} = 0.37 \text{ m}$
