Answer:

a = 3 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

mass of crate = 20 Kg

horizontal force on crate = 70 N

frictional force on the crate = 10 N

acceleration of crate = ?

now, calculating net force acting on the crate.

 F = horizontal force - frictional force

 F = 70 - 10

 F = 60 N

net force on the crate is equal to 60 N.

We also know that

F = m a

60 = 20 x a

a = 3 m/s²

Hence, the acceleration of the crate is equal to 3 m/s²

A proton moves from left to right across the screen at speed v0. Then a uniform magnetic field of strength 0.80 T is directed in
Anton [14]

Answer: The force is  directed upward

Explanation: Considering the Lorentz force, given by:

F= qv×B

using the right hand rule and considering the direction of electron velocity and the magnetic field from the figure, the vectorial product gives a  force vector upwards .

Contact lenses are designed to be gas permeable in order to allow oxygen to diffuse to the eye. If the edge of a contact lens is
guapka [62]

Answer: A

The diffusion time through the edge is double the diffusion time through the center.

Explanation:

Only the diffusion coefficient, thickness, surface area, distance affects the time it takes a gas such as oxygen to diffuse a given in a medium. The Diffusion time increases with the square of diffusion distance  Also, the Increased surface area increases the rate of diffusion or the diffusion time, whereas a thicker membrane reduces the rate of diffusion or time it takes the gas to be permeable. Also, The greater the distance that a substance must travel, the slower the rate of diffusion The diffusion coefficient determines the time it takes a gas to diffuse. Also the Diffusion time is inversely proportional to the diffusion coefficient.

Now, If the edge of a contact lens is double the thickness of the central portion of the lens, then it will take more time for the gas to diffuse through the thicker portion. since its edge is double the central position, then the diffusion time will also be doubled. So Option A is the best answer-

The diffusion time through the edge is double the diffusion time through the center.

How many times Father is Proxima Centauri from the sun then is earth from the sun answer choices about 269,000 times or about 0.
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

269,000

Explanation:

The distance between Proxima Centauri and the Sun, d₁₁ = 4.246 light years

The distance between Earth and the Sun, d₂ = 1.58 × 10⁻⁵ light years

The ratio of the distances are;

d₁/d₂ = 4.246/(1.58 × 10⁻⁵) = 268734.177215 ≈ 269,000 times

Therefore, Proxima Centauri is approximately 269,000 times further from the Sun than the Earth is from the Sun

¿Cuál será la potencia o consumo en watt de una ampolleta conectada a una red de energía eléctrica doméstica monofásica de 220 v
g100num [7]

Answer:

La potencia o consumo en watt de una ampolleta conectada a una red de energía eléctrica doméstica monofásica de 220 volt, si la corriente que circula por el circuito de la ampolleta es de 0.45 ampere, es 99 Watts.

Explanation:

Potencia es la velocidad o rapidez con la que se consume la energía. Siendo la energía la capacidad que tiene un mecanismo o dispositivo eléctrico cualquiera para realizar un trabajo, también se puede definir potencia como la energía desarrollada o consumida en una unidad de tiempo. Su unidad de medida es el Watt.

La ley de Watt establece que la potencia eléctrica P suministrada por un elemento de circuito, es directamente proporcional al producto entre la tensión de la alimentación V del circuito y la intensidad de corriente I que circula por él.  

Matemáticamente, la ley de Watt se expresa:

P = V.I

donde V es medida en Volt e I es medida en Ampere.

En este caso:

  • V=220 volt
  • I= 0.45 ampere

Reemplazando:

P= 220 volt* 0.45 ampere

P= 99 Watts

<u><em>La potencia o consumo en watt de una ampolleta conectada a una red de energía eléctrica doméstica monofásica de 220 volt, si la corriente que circula por el circuito de la ampolleta es de 0.45 ampere, es 99 Watts.</em></u>
