In a circuit, a variable resistor is to be connected across a potential difference of 60 volts to allow the current to be adjust

ed in the range from 40 milliamperes to 100 milliamperes.
A variable resistor is a device in which the resistance can be varied.
mA = milliamperes, or 10-3 amperes
Over what range must the resistance vary?

plz help :')

Answer:

600 and 1500 [ohm

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use ohm's law, which tells us that the voltage is the product of the current by the resistance, so we have:

V = I*R

where:

V = voltage [V]

I = current [amp]

R = resistance [ohm]

<u>Therefore:</u>

R = V/I

R1 = 60/(40*10^-3) = 1500 [ohm]

R2 = 60/(100*10^-3) = 600 [ohm]

So the resistance should be among 600 and 1500 [ohm]

Explanation :

(1) Involuntary muscles are the muscles that are not controlled by our will.

(2) Tendons are the connective tissues that join the muscle to bones. Tendons are tissues that have fibers.

(3) Cardiac muscle is also involuntary muscles. For example heart muscle. It shows contraction and relaxation throughout life.

(4) Voluntary muscle is the muscles that are not controlled by our will.  

(5) Biceps are the arm muscles.

Hence, this the required explanation as per options.

Lesechka [4]
No, he did not perform any work. Work is when you’re using energy which results in a force. Even though he was tired and sweaty, he did not move the boulder. So therefore he did not perform any work.

An object is placed at a far distance in front of a thin converging lens. Then the object (1 point) moves gradually toward the l
xeze [42]

Answer:

real, and then virtual

Explanation:

A converging lens is known as convex lens. This lens is called converging lens because it converges all light rays incident on the lens and parallel to the principal axis at the focus.

The nature of image formed by objects placed in front of this lens as mostly REAL IMAGES. The image formed becomes virtual only when the object is almost in close contact with the lens.

Based on the explanation, it can be deduced that an object placed far from a convex lens forms real images but as we move closer to the lens (almost touching the lens), the image formed overtime tends to be virtual.

Compared to visible light, the wavelength of X-rays is and the frequency is .
rosijanka [135]
The only difference between the two is that the frequency of X-rays is very much higher than radio waves. If, on the other hand, the radio waves or X-rays are propagating through a medium other than the vacuum, their speed will generally be less than c and will depend upon the specific properties of the medium.
