Answer:
Part A
Newton's 3rd law states that action and reaction are equal and opposite, mathematically, we have;
= -
Where;
= The action force
= The reaction force
Part B
The law indicates that the force with which a rocket ship uses in taking off from the Earth, is equal in magnitude, and opposite in direction to the reaction force of the Earth to the motion of the rocket, (-)
Part C
The law is a universal law, and it will also affect the rocket ship in space, as the force of the jet from the exhaust is directed towards Earth while in space, the rocket is propelled deeper into space
Explanation:
A. 0.77 A
Using the relationship:
where P is the power, V is the voltage, and R the resistance, we can find the resistance of each bulb.
For the first light bulb, P = 60 W and V = 120 V, so the resistance is
For the second light bulb, P = 200 W and V = 120 V, so the resistance is
The two light bulbs are connected in series, so their equivalent resistance is
The two light bulbs are connected to a voltage of
V = 240 V
So we can find the current through the two bulbs by using Ohm's law:
B. 142.3 W
The power dissipated in the first bulb is given by:
where
I = 0.77 A is the current
is the resistance of the bulb
Substituting numbers, we get
C. 42.7 W
The power dissipated in the second bulb is given by:
where
I = 0.77 A is the current
is the resistance of the bulb
Substituting numbers, we get
D. The 60-W bulb burns out very quickly
The power dissipated by the resistance of each light bulb is equal to:
where
E is the amount of energy dissipated
t is the time interval
From part B and C we see that the 60 W bulb dissipates more power (142.3 W) than the 200-W bulb (42.7 W). This means that the first bulb dissipates energy faster than the second bulb, so it also burns out faster.
