Answer:

24.7 ohms

Explanation:

Given in the question,

electric current = 3 A

potential difference = 74 V

Using ohm's law

R = V/I

<em>R = resistance of wire</em>

<em>V = potential difference</em>

<em>I = electric current</em>

<em />

plug value in the formula

R = 74/3

R = 24.7 ohms

Therefore, the resistance of the wire is, 24.7 ohms

In a Broadway performance, an 84.5-kg actor swings from a R = 4.30-m-long cable that is horizontal when he starts. At the bottom

Arada [10]

Answer:

1.57772 m

Explanation:

M = Mass of actor = 84.5 kg

m = Mass of costar = 55 kg

v = Velocity of costar

V = Velocity of actor

$h_i$ = Intial height of actor = 4.3 m

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

As the energy of the system is conserved

$\frac{1}{2}MV^2=Mgh_i\\\Rightarrow V=\sqrt{2gh_i}\\\Rightarrow V=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 4.3}\\\Rightarrow V=9.18509\ m/s$

As the linear momentum is conserved

$MV=(m+M)v\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{MV}{m+M}\\\Rightarrow V=\frac{84.5\times 9.18509}{84.5+55}\\\Rightarrow v=5.56372\ m/s$

Applying conservation of energy again

$\frac{1}{2}(m+M)v^2=(m+M)gh_f\\\Rightarrow h_f=\frac{v^2}{2g}\\\Rightarrow h_f=\frac{5.56372^2}{2\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h_f=1.57772\ m$

The maximum height they reach is 1.57772 m

A ball is dropped from a tower that is 206 m high, How long does it take to reach the ground?

Slav-nsk [51]

It will take 6.42 s for the ball that is dropped from a height of 206 m to reach the ground.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (H) = 206 m

NOTE: Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

The time taken for the ball to get to the ground can be obtained as follow:

H = ½gt²

206 = ½ × 10 × t²

206 = 5 × t²

Divide both side by 5

$t^{2} = \frac{206}{5}\\\\ t^{2} = 41.2$

Take the square root of both side

$t = \sqrt{41.2}$

Therefore, it will take 6.42 s for the ball to get to the ground.
