Help How much current will flow when a 120 V power supply is connected to a 30 resistor ?

You pull two blocks connected by a lightweight string across a horizontal table. Block 1 has a mass of 1.00 kg, and block 2 has

Two light bulbs have resistances of 400 Ω and 800 ΩThe two light bulbs are connected in series across a 120- V line. Find the cu

Natasha2012 [34]

1) Current in each bulb: 0.1 A

The two light bulbs are connected in series, this means that their equivalent resistance is just the sum of the two resistances:

$R_{eq}=R_1 + R_2 = 400 \Omega + 800 \Omega=1200 \Omega$

And so, the current through the circuit is (using Ohm's law):

$I=\frac{V}{R_{eq}}=\frac{120 V}{1200 \Omega}=0.1 A$

And since the two bulbs are connected in series, the current through each bulb is the same.

2) 4 W and 8 W

The power dissipated by each bulb is given by the formula:

$P=I^2 R$

where I is the current and R is the resistance.

For the first bulb:

$P_1 = (0.1 A)^2 (400 \Omega)=4 W$

For the second bulb:

$P_1 = (0.1 A)^2 (800 \Omega)=8 W$

3) 12 W

The total power dissipated in both bulbs is simply the sum of the power dissipated by each bulb, so:

$P_{tot} = P_1 + P_2 = 4 W + 8 W=12 W$

The force exerted by the wind on the sails of a sailboat is Fsail = 330 N north. The water exerts a force of Fkeel = 210 N east.

Elena L [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration is $a_r = 1.50 \ m/s^2$

The direction is $\theta = 32.5 6^o$ north of east

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The force exerted by the wind is $F_{sail} = (330 ) \ N \ north$

The force exerted by water is $F_{keel} = (210 ) \ N \ east$

The mass of the boat(+ crew) is $m_b = 260 \ kg$

Now Force is mathematically represented as

$F = ma$

Now the acceleration towards the north is mathematically represented as

$a_n = \frac{F_{sail}}{m_b}$

substituting values

$a_n = \frac{330 }{260}$

$a_n = 1.269 \ m/s^2$

Now the acceleration towards the east is mathematically represented as

$a_e = \frac{F_{keel}}{m_b }$

substituting values

$a_e = \frac{210}{260}$

$a_e =0.808 \ m/s^2$

The resultant acceleration is

$a_r = \sqrt{a_e^2 + a_n^2}$

substituting values

$a_r = \sqrt{(0.808)^2 + (1.269)^2}$

$a_r = 1.50 \ m/s^2$

The direction with reference from the north is evaluated as

Apply SOHCAHTOA

$tan \theta = \frac{a_e}{a_n}$

$\theta = tan ^{-1} [\frac{a_e}{a_n } ]$

substituting values

$\theta = tan ^{-1} [\frac{0.808}{1.269 } ]$

$\theta = tan ^{-1} [0.636 ]$

$\theta = 32.5 6^o$

I have an astronomy question... Spinning up the solar nebula. The orbital speed of the material in the solar nebula at Pluto's a

attashe74 [19]

The angular momentum of a particle in orbit is

l = m v r

Assuming that no torques act and that angular momentum is conserved then if we compare two epochs "1" and "2"

m_1 v_1 r_1 = m_2 v_2 r_2

Assuming that the mass did not change, conservation of angular momentum demands that

v_1 r_1 = v_2 r_2

or

v1 = v_2 (r_2/r_1)

Setting r_1 = 40,000 AU and v_2 = 5 km/s and r_2 = 39 AU (appropriate for Pluto's orbit) we have

v_2 = 5 km/s (39 AU /40,000 AU) = 4.875E-3 km/s

Therefore, the orbital speed of this material when it was 40,000 AU from the sun is 4.875E-3 km/s.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

1. Which of the following transformations is an example of a β−-decay?

KatRina [158]

Answer:

1. C: 31/14 Si becomes 31/15 because a nuetron

2. A: 238 92U because the very long half-life means a very small rate of decay

3. D: Charge conservation is not satisfied

4. B: of the four nuclear decay processes only the α-decay changes the baryon number and does so in increments of four
