Ohm's law<span> states that the </span>current<span> through a </span>conductor<span> between two points is directly </span>proportional<span> to the </span>voltage<span> across the two points. Mathematically given by, R = V/I = 120/10 = 12 ohms or </span>Ω.

The formula is V= I x R

I being the current and R being the resistance. V being the voltage. 

So 120= 10xR

120/10 = R

R= 12

Hope this helped!

a lead block drops its temperature by 5.90 degrees celsius when 427 J of heat are removed from it. what is the mass of the block
Airida [17]

Answer:

577g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Temperature change = 5.9°C

Amount of heat lost = 427J

Unknown:

Mass of the block = ?

Solution:

The heat capacity of a body is the amount of heat required to change the temperature of that body by 1°C.

                H =  m c Ф

  H is the heat capacity

 m  is the mass of the block

  c is the specific heat capacity

   Ф is the temperature change

Specific heat capacity of lead is 0.126J/g°C

   m = H / m Ф

   m = \frac{427}{0.126 x 5.9}  = 577g

Mass of the lead block is 577g

What kind of image is formed when an object is placed at the focal point of a convex lens? Explain WHY this is the image that oc
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Since light does not actually pass through this point, the image is referred to as a virtual image. Observe that when the object in located in front of the focal point of the converging lens, its image is an upright and enlarged image that is located on the object's side of the lens.

Light travels at 300,000 km per second. Mars is 56 million km away from Earth. How many seconds does it take light to travel fro
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

<em> It takes 186.67 second for the light to travel from Mars to earth.</em>

Explanation:

Light: Light is a visible form of energy which is radiated outward from a source. Light travels in a straight line, and this phenomenon is called rectilinear propagation of light.

S = d/t .......................... Equation 1

making t the subject of the equation

t = d/S ......................... Equation 2

Where S = speed of light, d = distance between the earth and Mars, t = time

<em>Given: d = 56000000 km, S = 300000 km per seconds.</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 2</em>

<em>t = 56000000/300000</em>

<em>t = 186.67 seconds.</em>

<em>Thus it takes 186.67 second for the light to travel from Mars to earth.</em>

A wave along a guitar string has a frequency of 540 Hz and a wavelength of 4.3 m. Calculate the velocity of the wave.
Virty [35]

Answer:

Velocity of wave =  2322 m /sec

Explanation:

We know that, Velocity of wave v = n  λ

Given, n = 540 Hz,  λ=4.3 m , v = ?

Putting the value of n and λ

Velocity of wave = 540 x 4.3 = 2322 m /sec
