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

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

32 ms

Explanation:

v=32ms.

Explanation:

I will assume that you mean that the acceleration is 8.0 ms2, as 8.0ms is a value for velocity, not acceleration.

Here, we use the formula v=u+at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is time. Let's substitute values, then:

v=u+at,

v=0+8.0⋅4.0

v=32,

v=32ms.

Hope it Helps! :D .

A cardboard box sits on top of a concrete sidewalk where the coefficient of friction between the surfaces is 0.4. The mass of th

Sloan [31]

Answer:

Fg = 98.1 [N]; N = 98.1 [N]; Ff = 39.24 [N]; a = 2.076[m/^2]

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must make a free body diagram and interpret each of the forces acting on the box. In the attached diagram we can find the free body diagram.

The gravitational force is equal to:

Fg = (10 * 9.81) = 98.1 [N]

Now by summing forces on the Y axis equal to zero, we can find the normal force exerted by the surface.

N - Fg = 0

N = Fg

N = 98.1 [N]

The friction force is defined as the product of normal force by the coefficient of friction.

Ff = N * μ

Ff = 98.1 * 0.4

Ff = 39.24 [N]

By the sum forces on the x-axis equal to the product of mass by acceleration (newton's second law), we can find the value of acceleration.

60 - Ff = m * a

60 - 39.24 = 10 * a

a = 2.076[m/^2]

There is no such thing as an AC Generator, if its a generator, its DC. I think you are talking about an AC Alternator, in which case the answer would be -wrong answer, deleted-

vichka [17]

Answer:

Angle is 55.52°

and Initial Speed is v=26.48 m/s

Explanation:

Given data

$x_{o}=0m\\ y_{o}=1.23m\\a_{oy}=a_{1y}=g=-9.8m/s^{2} \\x_{1}=67.0m\\y_{1}=0m\\t_{o}=0\\a_{ox}=m/s^{2} \\t_{1}=4.50s$

Applying the kinematics equations for motion with uniform acceleration in x and y direction

$x_{1}=x_{o}+v_{ox}t_{1}=67.0m\\0+4.50v_{o}Cos\alpha =67.0m\\v_{o}Cos\alpha =14.99\\v_{o}=14.99/Cos\alpha.....(1) \\and\\y_{1}=y_{o}+v_{oy}t_{1}+(1/2)a_{oy}t_{1}^{2} =0m\\ 1+4.50v_{o}Sin\alpha+(-9.8/2)(4.5)^{2}=0\\ v_{o}Sin\alpha=21.828.....(2)$

Put the value of v₀ from equation (1) to equation (2)

$\frac{14.99}{Cos\alpha }(Sin\alpha ) =21.828\\as\\tan\alpha =Sin\alpha /Cos\alpha \\So\\14.99tan\alpha =21.828\\tan\alpha =21.828/14.99\\\alpha =tan^{-1}(21.828/14.99) \\\alpha =55.52^{o}$

Put that angle in equation (1) or equation (2) to find the initial velocity

So from equation (1)

$v_{o}=(\frac{14.99}{Cos\alpha } ) \\v_{o}=(\frac{14.99}{Cos(55.52) } ) \\v_{o}=26.48m/s$
