If a 60 W light bulb and a 75 W light bulb operate from 150 V source, which bulb has a greater current in it?
Monica [59]

Answer:

Since it us the resistance that causes the power output, it might be intuitive to think that more resistance produces more power but as P=I^2 * R one actually needs high current and low resistqnce. That means 75 W has lower resistance and higher current.

Now you may think that making the resistance very low, one gets the most power. Not so, as the circuit has wires, power source etc. All the have their resistance. In theory one gets the maximum power over a resistor when the resistor is half of the total resistance of the circuit. This in practice would be inefficient as one would lose half of the total power elsewhere. In practice circuits have fuses that limit the current and one gets the maximum power at the current the fuse is rated to. So if there is 20 A fuse, the maximum power is 2400 W and the corresponding resistance 6 ohm.

Answer:To understand the regional and local climates of Colorado, you must begin with a basic knowledge of Colorado's topography. Colorado lies astride the highest mountains of the Continental Divide. Nearly rectangular, its north and south boundaries are the 41° and 37° N. parallels, and the east and went boundaries are the 102° and 109° W. meridians. It is eighth in size among the 50 states, with an area of over 104,000 square miles. Although known for its mountains, nearly 40 percent of its area is taken up by the eastern high plains.

Of particular importance to the climate are Colorado's interior continental location in the middle latitudes, the high elevation of the entire region, and the mountains and ranges extending north and south approximately through the middle of the State. With an average altitude of about 6,800 feet above sea level, Colorado is the highest contiguous State in the Union. Roughly three-quarters of the Nation's land above 10,000 feet altitude lies within its borders. The State has 59 mountains 14,000 feet or higher, and about 830 mountains between 11,000 and 14,000 feet in elevation.

A person hits a tennis ball with a mass of 0.058 kg against a wall.
Alla [95]

Explanation:

Mass of the ball, m = 0.058 kg

Initial speed of the ball, u = 11 m/s

Final speed of the ball, v = -11 m/s (negative as it rebounds)

Time, t = 2.1 s

(a) Let F is the average force exerted on the wall. It is given by :

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}

F=\dfrac{0.058\times (11-(-11))}{2.1}

F = 0.607 N

(b) Area of wall, A=3\ m^2

Let P is the average pressure on that area. It is given by :

P=\dfrac{F}{A}

P=\dfrac{0.607\ N}{3\ m^2}

P = 0.202 Pa

Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the magnitude of g at a height above Earth's surface where free-fall acceleration equals 6.5m/s^2?
prohojiy [21]

You've given the answer, right there in your question.

The "magnitude of gravity" is described in terms of the acceleration
due to it, and you just told us what that is.

We can also notice that the figure you gave is about 0.66 of the
acceleration due to gravity on the Earth's surface. That tells us that
the distance from the Earth's center at that height is about 

                     (1 / √0.66) = 1.23 times

the Earth's radius, so the height is about  910 miles above the surface.

The arrival time of an elevator in a 12-story dormitory is equally likely at any time range during the next 5.5 minutes. (a) Cal
Bumek [7]

Answer:

(a). 2.8 minutes.

(b). 0.4732

Explanation:

Without mincing words, let's dive straight into the solution to the question.

So, for the part (a), the expected arrival time can be calculated as given below.

The distribution falls between the ranges of 0(lower boundary) to 5.5minutes(upper boundary).

Therefore, the expected time = (0 + 5.5)÷ 2 = 2.75 minutes = 2.8 minutes(to 2 decimal places).

(b). The probability that an elevator arrives in less than 2.6 minutes can be calculated as given below;

Recall: We have that the upper boundary = 0 and the lower boundary = 5.5 minutes for the distribution. Also, the upper limit is equal to 2.6 minutes and the lower limits = 0 minutes.

Therefore, 1/ (5.5 - 0) = 1/5.5 = 0.182.

Therefore, the probability that an elevator arrives in less than 2.6 minutes = 0.182 ( 2.6 - 0).

The probability that an elevator arrives in less than 2.6 minutes = ( 0.182 × 2.6).

The probability that an elevator arrives in less than 2.6 minutes = 0.4732.
