A student constructed a series circuit consisting of a 12.0-volt battery, a 10.0-ohm lamp, and a

1 answer:

6 0

Considering the unknown resistence as R and using the Ohm's First Law, we have:

$i= \frac{V}{R_{eq}} \\ 0.5= \frac{12}{R+10} \\ R+10=24 \\ R=14-Ohm$

The equivalent resistence is given by the resistor series with the lamp resistence.

$R_{eq}=R+10 \\ R_{eq}=14+10 \\ \boxed {R_{eq}=24-Ohm}$

Work done(as a measure of energy)=force x distance. Use this equation to show that the SI base units of energy are kg m^2 s^-2

Arturiano [62]

Force [kgms^-2] = mass [kg] x acceleration [ms^-2]
Work = force x distance
Work = [kgms^-2] x [m]
Work = [kgm^2s^-2]

a rocket initially at rest on the ground lifts off vertically with a constant acceleration of 2.0 x 10^1 meters per second^2. Ho

Here's the formula for the distance covered by an accelerating body in some amount of time ' T '. This formula is incredibly simple but incredibly useful. It pops up so often in Physics that you really should memorize it:

D = 1/2 a T²

Distance = (1/2)·(acceleration)·(time²)

This question gives us the acceleration and the distance, and we want to find the time.

(9,000 m) = (1/2) (20 m/s²) (time²)

(9,000 m) = (10 m/s²) (time²)

Divide each side by 10 m/s²:

(9,000 m) / (10 m/s²) = (time²)

900 s² = time²

Square root each side:

<em>T = 30 seconds</em>

What should be done to protect forest ?

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Plant trees on places where forests have been chopped down to restore damaged ecosystems. Encourage individuals to live in a way that is environmentally friendly. Create parks to conserve the rainforests and animals. Companies that operate in environmentally friendly methods should be supported.
