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

Two coaxial conducting cylindrical shells have equal and opposite charges. The inner shell has charge +q and an outer radius a,

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

$\Delta V = \frac{q ln(\frac{b}{a})}{2\pi \epsilon_0 L}$

Explanation:

As we know that the charge per unit length of the long cylinder is given as

$\lambda = \frac{q}{L}$

here we know that the electric field between two cylinders is given by

$E = \frac{2k\lambda}{r}$

now we know that electric potential and electric field is related to each other as

$\Delta V = - \int E.dr$

$\Delta V = -\int_a^b (\frac{2k\lambda}{r})dr$

$\Delta V = -2k \lambda ln(\frac{b}{a})$

$\Delta V = \frac{\lambda ln(\frac{b}{a})}{2\pi \epsilon_0}$

$\Delta V = \frac{q ln(\frac{b}{a})}{2\pi \epsilon_0 L}$

A tennis racket strikes a tennis ball with a force of 100 N. With what force

viva [34]

Answer:

-100N

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that to every force exerted on one body, there is an equal and opposite force. This means that if object A exerts an ACTION force on B, there is a force called REACTION FORCE, which is equal and opposite, exerted on A by B.

The action and reaction forces are equal in size/magnitude but opposite in direction. In this case where a tennis racket strikes a tennis ball with a force (action force) of 100N, the ball will strike the racket with a reaction force of -100N.
