Light bulb is connected to a 110-V source. What is the resistance of this bulb if it is a 100-W bulb

masya89 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Formula used for calculating power P = current * voltage

P = IV

From ohms law, V = IR where R is the resistance. Substituting V = IR into the formula for calculating power, we will have;

P = IV

P =(V/R)V

P = V²/R

Given parameters

Power rating of the bulb P = 100 Watts

Source voltage V = 110V

Required

Resistance of the bulb R

Substituting the given parameters into the formula for calculating power to get Resistance R;

P = V²/R

100 = 110²/R

R = 110²/100

R = 110 * 110/100

R = 12100/100

R = 121 ohms

<em>Hence, the resistance of this bulb is 121 ohms</em>

How much force does it take to bring a 1,375 N car from rest to a velocity of 26 m/s in 6 seconds?

V125BC [204]

Explanation:

<u>Mass of car</u> = 137.5 kg

<u>Acceleration</u> = v - u / t = 26 - 0 / 6 = 4.33 m/sec^2

Force = m * a = 137.5 * 4.33 = 595.3 N

Estimate the monthly cost of using a 700 W refrigerator that runs for 10 hours a day if the cost per kilowatt hours is cents $.2

Mrac [35]

Answer:

$4.2

Explanation:

Given data

Power= 700W

time= 10 hours

Cost per kilowatt hours is cents $0.20

Let us find the number of hours in a month

=24*30

=720 hours

Energ= power*time

Energy= 700/1000*30

Energy= 7*3

Enery= 21 kwh

1 kwh= 0.2

21kwh= x

cross multiply

x=21*0.2

x= $4.2

At a circus, a human cannonball is shot from a cannon at 15m/s at an angle of 40° above horizontal. She

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

The height is $H = 6.74 \ m$

The horizontal distance is $D = 23.74 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The speed is $v = 15 \ m/s$

The angle is $\theta = 40^o$

The height of the cannon from the ground is h = 2 m

The distance of the net from the ground is k = 1 m

Generally the maximum height she reaches is mathematically represented as

$H = \frac{v^2 sin^2 \theta }{2 * g } + h$

=> $H = \frac{(15)^2 [sin (40)]^2 }{2 * 9.8} + 2$

=> $H = 6.74 \ m$

Generally from kinematic equation

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2$

Here s is the displacement which is mathematically represented as

s = [-(h-k)]

=> s = -(2-1)

=> s = -1 m

There reason why s = -1 m is because upward motion canceled the downward motion remaining only the distance of the net from the ground which was covered during the first half but not covered during the second half

a = -g = -9.8

$u = v sin (\theta)$
