A table lamp draws a current of 200 mA when it is connected to a 120-V source. What is the resistance of the table lamp?

Physics
1 answer:
Nitella [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: 600Ω

Explanation:

Voltage of source (V) = 120 Volts

Current drawn by table lamp (I) = 200mA

(Since 1 mA = 1 x 10^-3A

200mA = 200 x 10^-3A)

Resistance of table lamp (R)= ?

Then, apply the formula for ohms law

Voltage = Current x resistance

i.e V = I x R

120V = 200 x 10^-3A x R

R = 120V / 200 x 10^-3A

R = 600Ω (Ω is the symbol for ohms)

Thus, the resistance of the table lamp is 600Ω

What is CGS unit of weight ​
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

<h3>\boxed{dyne}</h3>

Explanation:

The weight of a body is defined as the force with which it is attracted towards the centre of a planet. A spring balance measures it. It's unit is Newton ( N ) in the SI system and dyne in the CGS system.

A 1 kg particle moves upward from the origin to (23) m. Wit is work done by the force of gravity which is in - y direction s B.
sveta [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass, m = 1 kg

Position (2, 3 ) m

height, h = 2 m

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

Here, no force is acting in horizontal direction, the force of gravity is acting in vertical direction, so the work done by the gravitational force is to be calculated.

Force  mass x acceleration due to gravity

F = 1 x 9.8 = 9.8 N

Work = force x displacement x CosФ

Where, Ф be the angle between force vector and the displacement vector.

Here the value of Ф is 180° as the force acting vertically downward and the displacement is upward

So, W = 9.8 x 2 x Cos 180°

W = - 19.6 J

Thus, option (A) is correct.

Suppose you want to to double a copper wire's resistance. To what temperature, in degrees Celsius, must you raise it if it is or
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

T=280.41 °C

Explanation:

Given that

At T= 24°C Resistance =Ro

Lets take at temperature T resistance is 2Ro

We know that resistance R given as

R= Ro(1+αΔT)

R-Ro=Ro αΔT

For copper wire

α(coefficient of Resistance) = 3.9 x 10⁻³ /°C

Given that at temperature T

R= 2Ro

Now by putting the values

R-Ro=Ro αΔT

2Ro-Ro=Ro αΔT

1 = αΔT

1 = 3.9 x 10⁻³ x ΔT

ΔT = 256.41 °C

T- 24 = 256.41 °C

T=280.41 °C

So the final temperature is 280.41 °C.
