Answer:

Newton's third law of motion.

Explanation:

An ice skater at rest pushes against a sled at rest,causing both the skater and sled to move away from each other with different acceleration. It is based on Newton's third law of motion.

Third law says that, for every action there is an equal; and opposite reaction. Here, action is force applied by ice skater and reaction is motion of skater and sled away from each other with different acceleration.

Analyzing the Light Bulb: You should have noticed that the light bulb doesn't have a single well-defined "resistance," since the
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Resistance increases with increase in temperature which depends on power supplied which also depends on voltage.

Thermal expansion will make resistance larger.

Explanation:

Light bulb is a good example of a filament lamp. If we plot the graph of voltage against current we will notice that resistance is constant at constant temperature.

The filament heats up when an electric current passes through it, and produces light as a result.

The resistance of a lamp increases as the temperature of its filament increases. The current flowing through a filament lamp is not directly proportional to the voltage across it.

tensile stress begins to appear in resistor as the temperature rises. Thus, the resistance value increases as the temperature rises. Resistance value can only decrease as the temperature rises in case of thin film resistor with aluminium substrate.

In case of a filament bulb, the resistance will increase as increase in length of the wire. The thermal expansion in this regard is linear expansivity in which resistance is proportional to length of the wire.

Resistance therefore get larger.

How do you convert seconds to minutes, seconds to hours , minutes to seconds and hours to seconds
Bess [88]

Answer:

You could memorize conversions, or use conversion charts, or do a quick internet search for help.

Explanation:

I'll do a few of the conversions for you

<u>Seconds to minutes: </u>

there are 60 seconds in one minute. So if you are wondering how many seconds are in 3 and 1/2 minutes, you would do this conversion:

60 sec/min <em>times </em>x sec/3.5 min

which can be written as 60 x 3.5 = 210. so "x" seconds would be 210 seconds in 3 1/2 minutes.

<u>you could do the same thing in the opposite direction for minutes to seconds:</u>

1 min has 60 seconds. So in 7.25 minutes, how many seconds are there?

1 min/60 sec <em>times </em>7.25 min/x sec

which can be written as 7.25 x 60 = 435. so "x" seconds would be 435 seconds in 7.25 minutes.

<u>hours to seconds:</u>

this one is slightly more complicated

In one hour there are 60 minutes, and in one minute there are 60 seconds.

so to convert from hours to seconds you would do this conversion:

1 hr/60 min times 1 min/60 sec. then the "min" would cancel out, and you would be left with the label "hr/sec". to do the math, it would be 1 hr / 60 x 60.

60x60 = 3600. so you would have 1 hr/3600 sec. So in one hour there are 3600 seconds.

so if you want to know how many seconds are in 6.75 hours:

6.75 hr/x sec <em>times </em>3600 sec/1 hr

6.75 x 3600 = 24,300 so there are 24,300 seconds in 6.75 hours.

I hope this helps :)

An electron is accelerated within a particle accelerator using a 100 MV electric potential. The 100 MeV electron moves along an
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The length of the tube is 3.92 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric potential = 100 MV

Length = 4 m

Energy = 100 MeV

We need to calculate the value of \gamma

Using formula of relativistic energy

E=m_{0}c^2(\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}-1)

Put the value into the formula

1.6\times10^{-15}= 9.1\times`10^{-31}\times9\times10^{16}(\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}-1)

(\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}-1)=\dfrac{1.6\times10^{-15}}{9.1\times10^{-31}\times9\times10^{16}}

Here, \gamma-1=(\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}-1)

\gamma-1=0.01953

\gamma=0.01953+1

\gamma=1.01953

We need to calculate the length

Using formula of length

L'=\dfrac{L}{\gamma}

Put the value into the formula

L'=\dfrac{4}{1.01953}

L'=3.92\ m

Hence, The length of the tube is 3.92 m.

A generator produces 60 A of current at 120 V. The voltage is usually stepped up to 4500 V by a transformer and transmitted thro
aalyn [17]

Answer:

The percentage power lost in the transmission line if the voltage not stepped up is 50%.

Explanation:

Given that,

Current = 60 A

Voltage = 120 V

Resistance = 1.0 ohm

We need to calculate the power

Using formula of power

P=I\times V

Where,I =current

V = voltage

Put the value into the formula

P=60\times120

P=7200\ W

We need to calculate the percentage power lost in the transmission line

If the voltage is not stepped up

Then, the power loss

P'=I^2\times R

Put the value into the formula

P'=(60)^2\times1

P'=3600\ W

The percentage power loss P''

P''=\dfrac{P'}{P}\times100=\dfrac{3600}{7200}\times100

P''=50\%

Hence, The percentage power lost in the transmission line if the voltage not stepped up is 50%.
