A 20 ohm lamp and a 5 ohm lamp are connected in series and placed across a potential difference of 50 V.
iogann1982 [59]

Hi there!

1.

Since the two resistors are in series, we can simply add:
R_T = R_1 + R_2 + ... R_n

R_T = 20 + 5 = \boxed{25 \Omega}

2.

In series, the potential difference of each resistor (lamp) ADDS UP. We can begin by finding the current through the circuit using Ohm's law:
V = IR\\\\I = \frac{V}{R_T}

Plug in the values:
I = \frac{50}{25} = 2 A

Now,

we can use Ohm's law to find the individual voltage for each lamp.

20 Ohm lamp:
V = 2 * 20 = \boxed{40 V}

5 Ohm lamp:
V = 2 * 5 = \boxed{10 V}

3.

To solve, we can use the power equation.

P (\text{Watts})= IV

Plug in the values for each.

20 Ohm lamp:
P = 2 * 40 = \boxed{80 W}

5 Ohm lamp:
P = 2 * 10 = \boxed{100 W}

An earth satellite travels in a circular orbit at 20,000 mph if the radius of the orbit is 4,300 mi what angular velocity is gen
Bumek [7]

Answer:

0.00129rad/s

Explanation:

The angular velocity is expressed as;

v = wr

w is the angular velocity

r is the radius

Given

v =  20,000 mph

r = 4300mi

Get w;

w = v/r

w = 20000* 0.44704/4300*1609.34

w = 8940.8/6,920,162

w = 0.00129rad/s

Hence the angular velocity generated is 0.00129rad/s

) determine the density of a 32.5 g metal sample that displaces 8.39 ml of water.
sweet-ann [11.9K]
Density is the ratio of a substance's mass to its volume. On the other hand, according to Archimedes' principle, the volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of the object placed on the water. Thus, the density of the metal is equal to 8.39 mL. So, the density would be

Density = 32.5 g/8.39 mL = 3.87 g/mL
