Answer:

The resistance of the motor is 8.91 ohms.

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of the socket, V = 120 V

Current, I = 2.4 A

Back emf generated by the electric motor is, E = 98.6 V

We need to find the coil resistance of the motor. The new emf on the vacuum cleaner is

V'=V-E

V'=120\ V-98.6\ V\\\\V'=21.4\ volts

The resistance of the motor is given by :

V'=IR\\\\R=\dfrac{V'}{I}\\\\R=\dfrac{21.4\ V}{2.4\ A}\\\\R= 8.91\ \Omega

So, the resistance of the motor is 8.91 ohms. Hence, this is the required solution.

A 1.2 kg block of wood hangs motionless from strings. A 50 gram bullet, traveling horzontally, strikes the block and becomes emb
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

speed of the bullet before it hit the block is 200 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass of block m1 = 1.2 kg

mass of bullet m2 = 50 gram = 0.05 kg

combine speed V= 8.0 m/s

to find out

speed of the bullet before it hit the block

solution

we will apply here conservation of momentum that is

m1 × v1 + m2 × v2 = M × V    .............1

here m1 is mass of block and m2 is mass of bullet and v1 is initial speed of block i.e 0 and v2 is initial speed of bullet and M is combine mass of block and bullet and V is combine speed of block and bullet

put all value in equation 1

m1 × v1 + m2 × v2 = M × V

1.2 × 0 + 0.05 × v2 = ( 1.2 + 0.05 ) × 8

solve it we get

v2 = 200 m/s

so speed of the bullet before it hit the block is 200 m/s

Which type of wave results from a moderately sloping coastal region?
Naddik [55]

Hey there!

Your answer: Spilling breaker

Spilling breaker usually occurs when a beach or ocean is flat, and as the waves of the wind continues to happen, slowly the region would eventually become a slope.

It's almost like play-dough. Let's say that we set a perfect flat surface of play-dough on the table. As we continue slide our hands one direction, doesn't the play dough have more on one side than the other? It eventually contains a slope if you add enough from the first place.

Your answer: Spilling breaker

11. A plow pushes 100 kg of snow with 300 N of force. How much is the pile of snow<br> accelerated?
Fed [463]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is an application of Newton's second Law.

Formula

F = m * a

F = 300 N

m = 100 kg

a = ?

F = m * a

300N = 100 kg * a            Divide by 100

300N/100kg = a

a = 3 m/sec^2

If a diver displace water with a weight of 500N what is the upthrust on the diver?​
ki77a [65]

Answer:

500 N

Explanation:

Natural bouyency will keep the diver in the same place, no matter what the mass of gfs. This means if the diver is displacing with a weight of 500 N, the upthrust will also be 500 N.
