Answer:

2 amperes

Explanation:

According to Ohms law

v = ir

v = voltage

I = current

r = resistance

From the question

v = 120volts

r = 60 ohms

I = ?

Using ohms law ,

v = ir

120 = I x 60

Divide both sides by 60

120/60 = I x 60/60

2 = I

I = 2 amperes

A horizontal force of 400 N is exerted on a 2.0-kg ball as it rotates (at

frutty [35]

Answer:

the speed of the ball is 10 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

magnitude of exerted force, F = 400 N

mass of the ball, m = 2 kg

radius of the circle, r = 0.5

The speed of the ball is calculated by applying centripetal force formula;

$F = \frac{mv^2}{r} \\\\v^2 = \frac{Fr}{m}\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{Fr}{m}}\\\\ v = \sqrt{\frac{400*0.5}{2}}\\\\v = 10 \ m/s$

Therefore, the speed of the ball is 10 m/s
