An operating electric circuit consists of a lamp and a length of nichrome wire connected in series to a 12- volt battery. As the

temperature of the nichrome is decreased, what happens to the equivalent resistance of the circuit and the power developed by the lamp?

The resistance of the wire will decrease as its temperature is decreased due to reduced hindrance in the flow of electrons. This means the current will increase. Electric power:
P = I²/R
The power produced will thus increase since the current is increasing and the resistance decreasing.

Near the center of our galaxy, hydrogen gas is moving directly away from us in its orbit about a black hole. The electromagnetic
klemol [59]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concept related to wavelength, specifically when the wavelength is observed from a source that is in motion to the observer.

By definition the wavelength is given defined by,

\lambda_{obs} = \lambda_s \sqrt{\frac{1+u/c}{1-u/c}}

Where

\lambda_{obs} = Observed wavelength

\lambda_s = Wavelength of the source

c = Speed of light in vacuum

u = Relative velocity of the source to the observer

According to our data we have that the wavelength emitted from the galaxy is 1875nm which is equal to the wavelength from the source, while the wavelength from the observer is \lambda_{obs}=1945nm

Therefore replacing in the previous equation we have,

1945 = 1875 \sqrt{\frac{1+\frac{u}{c} }{1-\frac{u}{c} }}

\sqrt{\frac{1+u/c}{1-u/c}} = 1.03733

\frac{1+\frac{u}{c} }{1-\frac{u}{c} }=1.03733^2

1+\frac{u}{c} =1.03733^2*(1-\frac{u}{c} )

Solving for u,

1+\frac{u}{c} =1.03733^2*(1-\frac{u}{c} )

1+\frac{u}{c} =1.03733^2-1.03733^2(\frac{u}{c} )

\frac{u}{c} +1.03733^2\frac{u}{c} =1.03733^2-1

2.88595\frac{u}{c}=1.03733^2-1

\frac{u}{c} = \frac{1.03733^2-1}{2.88595}

u = \frac{1.03733^2-1}{2.88595}*c

u = 0.02635c

Therefore the speed of the gas relative to earth is 0.02635 times the speed of light.

A solid cylinder of mass 12.0 kgkg and radius 0.250 mm is free to rotate without friction around its central axis. If you do 75.
dybincka [34]

Answer:

The final angular velocity is 20rad/s

Explanation:

We are given;

mass, m = 12 kg

radius, r = 0.25 m

Work done;W = 75 J

Moment of inertia of cylinder, I = (1/2) mr²

Thus,

I = (1/2) x 12 x 0.25² = 0.375 kg.m²

Now, from work energy theorem,

Work done = Change in kinetic energy

So, W = KE_f - KE_i

Now, Initial Kinetic Energy (KE_i) = 0

Final Kinetic Energy; KE_f = (1/2)Iω²

So, KE_f = (1/2) x 0.375 x ω²

KE_f = 0.1875 ω²

Now, W = 75 J

Thus,

From, W = KE_f - KE_i, we have;

75 = 0.1875 ω² - 0

75 = 0.1875 ω²

ω² = 75/0.1875

ω² = 400

ω = √400

ω = 20 rad/s

James Bond is trying to escape his enemy on a speedboat but
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

100 m/s

Explanation:

Mass the mass of Bond's boat is m₁. His enemy's boat is twice the mass of Bond's i.e. m₂ = 2 m₁

Initial speed of Bond's boat is 0 as it won't start and remains stationary in the water. The initial speed of enemy's boat is 50 m/s. After the collision, enemy boat is  completely stationary. Let v₁ is speed of bond's boat.

It is the concept of the conservation of momentum. It remains conserved. So,

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

Putting all the values, we get :

0+(2m_1)50=m_1v_1+(2m_2)(0)\\\\100m_1=m_1v_1\\\\v_1=100\ m/s

So, Bond's boat is moving with a speed of 100 m/s after the collision.

A car on a freeway speeds up to get around another car. The car speeds up from 20 m/s to 35 m/s in 5 seconds.
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Initial speed = 20 m/s

Final speed = 35 m/s

Time to speed up = 5 seconds

Explanation:

Directly from the information given:

Initial speed = 20 m/s

Final speed = 35 m/s

Time to speed up = 5 seconds

A dolphin in an aquatic show jumps straight up out of the water at a velocity of 15.0 m/s. (a) List the knowns in this problem.
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

a)

Y0 = 0 m

Vy0 = 15 m/s

ay = -9.81 m/s^2

b) 7.71 m

c) 3.06 s

Explanation:

The knowns are that the initial vertical speed (at t = 0 s) is 15 m/s upwards. Also at that time the dolphin is coming out of the water, so its initial position is 0 m. And since we can safely assume this happens in Earth, the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity, which is 9.81 m/s^2 pointing downwards

Y(0) = 0 m

Vy(0) = 15 m/s

ay = -9.81 m/s^2 (negative because it points down)

Since acceleration is constant we can use the equation for uniformly accelerated movement:

Y(t) = Y0 + Vy0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2

To find the highest point we do the first time derivative (this is the speed:

V(t) = Vy0 + a * t

We equate this to zero

0 = Vy0 + a * t

0 = 15 - 9.81 * t

15 = 9.81 * t

t = 0.654 s

At this time it will have a height of:

Y(0.654) = 0 + 15 * 0.654 - 1/2 * 9.81 * 0.654^2 = 7.71 m

The doplhin jumps and falls back into the water, when it falls again it position will be 0 again. So we can equate the position to zero to find how long it was in the air knowing that it started the jump at t = 0s.

0 = Y0 + Vy0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2

0 = 0 + 15 * t - 1/2 * 9.81 t^2

0 = 15 * t - 4.9 * t^2

0 = t * (15 - 4.9 * t)

t1 = 0 This is the moment it jumped into the air

0 = 15 - 4.9 * t2

15 = 4.9 * t2

t2 = 3.06 s This is the moment when it falls again.

3.06 - 0 = 3.06 s
