Answer:

Current is in phase with voltage in a resistive circuit. Note that the wave form for power is always positive, never negative for this resistive circuit. This means that power is always being dissipated by the resistive load, and never returned to the source as it is with reactive loads.Explanation:

Two balls are thrown against a wall. Ball 1 has a much higher speed than ball 2.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Let both the balls have the same mass equals to m.

Let $v_1$ and $v_2$ be the speed of the ball1 and the ball2 respectively, such that

$v_1>v_2\;\cdots(i)$

Assuming that both the balls are at the same level with respect to the ground, so let h be the height from the ground.

The total energy of ball1= Kinetic energy of ball1 + Potential energy of ball1. The Kinetic energy of any object moving with speed, $v$ , is $\frac 12 m v^2$

and the potential energy is due to the change in height is $mgh$ [where $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity]

So, the total energy of ball1,

$=\frac 12 m v_1^2 + mgh\;\cdots(ii)$

and the total energy of ball1,

$=\frac 12 m v_2^2 + mgh\;\cdots(iii)$ .

Here, the potential energy for both the balls are the same, but the kinetic energy of the ball1 is higher the ball2 as the ball1 have the higher speed, refer equation (i)

So, $\frac 12 m v_1^2 >\frac 12 m v_2^2$

Now, from equations (ii) and (iii)

The total energy of ball1 hi higher than the total energy of ball2.

We divide the electromagnetic spectrum into six major categories of light, listed below. Rank these forms of light from left to

algol13

Answer:

gamma rays < X-ray < ultraviolet ray < visible light < infrared < radio wave

Explanation:

given light form,

A) radio waves,B) infrared,C) visible light,D) ultraviolet,E) X-rays,F) gamma rays

we know,

wavelength of radio wave = 10000 Km

wavelength of infrared = 700 nanometers (nm) to 1 millimeter (mm)

wavelength of visible light = 380 to 740 nm

wavelength of ultraviolet ray = 10 nm to 400 nm

wavelength of X-ray = 0.01 to 10 nm

wavelength of gamma rays = 100 picometer

so, the order of rays.

gamma rays < X-ray < ultraviolet ray < visible light < infrared < radio wave

If the half-life of tritium (hydrogen-3) is 12.3 years, how much of

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

0.0000076 grams

Explanation:

We're given the half life of Tritium to be 12.3 years. In order to find out the amount of substabce remaining:

Let's first find how many 'half lives' are in 250 years.

$n = \frac{250}{12.3} = 20.325$

Now what is half life? It means the time taken for a given quantity of an element to lose half it's mass.

So in 12.3 years we can find that The amount of 250 g of Tritium will be 250/2 = 125 g. In 24.6 years we'll have 125/2 = 62.5 g

So now we can devise a formula:

$m = \frac{original \: amount}{ {2}^{n} }$

Where m is the remaining amount and n is th number of half lives in the time given.

Using this formula we can calculate:

$m = \frac{10}{ {2}^{20.325} }$

Doing this calculation we get:

$m = 0.0000076 \: g$

As we can see a very small value remains.
