Answer:

Option B

Solution:

As per the question:

Heat produced at the rate of 10 W  

The resistor R and 2R are in series.

Also, in series, same current, I' passes through each element in the circuit.

Therefore, current is constant in series.

Also,

Power,P' = I'^{2}R

When current, I' is constant, then

P' ∝ R

Thus

\frac{P'}{2R} = \frac{10}{R}

P' = 20 W

Football player A has a mass of 210 pounds and is running at a rate of 5.0 mi/hr. He collides with player B. Player B has a mass
Naddika [18.5K]

The equation for momentum is p = mv where p is the omentum, m is the mass and v is the velocity. Calculating the momentum for each football player, player A will have a momentum of 1050 lb-mi/h and player B will have a momentum of 570 lb-mi/h. Therefore, momentum of player A is greater than that of player B.

A hailstone traveling with a velocity of 43 meters/second comes to a virtual stop 0.28 seconds after hitting water. What is the
lisabon 2012 [21]

Magnitude of acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change) .

Change in speed = (ending speed) - (starting speed)

                            =       zero            - (43 m/s)

                            =          -43 m/s .

Magnitude of acceleration = (-43 m/sec) / (0.28 sec)

                                          =  (-43 / 0.28)  (m/sec) / sec

                                          =        153.57...  m/s²

                                          =        1.5...  x 10²  m/s²  .

Explain why a ball thrown in space could keep moving forever, while a ball thrown here on Earth will come to a stop.
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

In space there is no air resistance. on earth there is

in space there is no opposite forces acting on stopping the ball, so if you throw it it will go on forever.

on earth there is air resistance and gravity, this will pull the ball towards the ground and slow it down.
