What units are used to measure force

In the metric system, the most common unit used is a Newton, which is a (kg x m)/sec^2 and in the English system, the most common unit is a Pound, which is a (slug x ft)/sec^2.

But really, any unit that conforms to a the diagram of a mass times a length divided by a time squared can be used to measure force. A microgram x kilometer divided by decade^2 is also a unit to measure force, albeit a very ugly one. I hope this helps :)

What happens to its surface temperature as a star changes color from red to blue

MAVERICK [17]

The surface temperature of the star increases when it changes its colour changes from red to blue.
Blue>white>yellow>orange>red
The given series is the temperature decreasing order of stars. Now our sun is considered as a yellow star.

An L-R-C series circuit, R = 160 Ω , L = 0.790 H , and C = 1.30×10−2 μF . The source has a voltage amplitude of 140 V and a freq

Answer: a) 1 b) 61 W c) 61 W

Explanation:

a) The Power Factor (also known as cos φ), is defined by the difference in phase between current and voltage, in a RLC series circuit, and is expressed as follows:

cos φ = R / Z = R / $\sqrt{(R)^{2} + (Xl -Xc)^{2} }$

In resonance, XL =XC, so the circuit behaves like it were purely resistive, so Z=R.

Replacing in the expression for power factor, we have:

cos φ = R/Z = R/R = 1

This means that in resonance, current and voltage are in phase each other.

b) The average power delivered by the source, in resonance, is simply the power dissipated at the resistance R, as follows:

Pavg = V² rms / R = V₀² / √2 / R = 61 W

c) If the circuit remains in resonance, the average power , which does not depends on frequency provided this condition remains, keeps the same, i.e. , 61 W.
