Answer:

Current in the circuit, I = 2.25 A

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of the battery, V = 9 V

Resistance of the bulb, R = 4 ohms

We need to find the current in the circuit. It can be calculated using Ohm's law. Ohm's law gives the relationship between the current, resistance and the voltage as :

$V=IR$

$I=\dfrac{V}{R}$

$I=\dfrac{9\ V}{4\ \Omega}$

I = 2.25 A

So, the current flowing in the circuit is 2.25 amperes. Hence, this is the required solution.

According to Ohm's law for a portion of the circuit we have:

U=RI=>I=U/R=9/4=2.25 A

Coulomb's law states<span> that: The magnitude of the electrostatic force of interaction between two point charges is directly proportional to the scalar multiplication of the magnitudes of charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Imagine that you are working as a roller coaster designer. You want to build a record breaking coaster that goes 70.0 m/s at the

Rzqust [24]

Wow ! This is not simple. At first, it looks like there's not enough information, because we don't know the mass of the cars. But I"m pretty sure it turns out that we don't need to know it.

At the top of the first hill, the car's potential energy is

PE = (mass) x (gravity) x (height) .

At the bottom, the car's kinetic energy is

   KE = (1/2) (mass) (speed²) .

You said that the car's speed is 70 m/s at the bottom of the hill,
and you also said that 10% of the energy will be lost on the way
down. So now, here comes the big jump. Put a comment under
my answer if you don't see where I got this equation:

   KE = 0.9 PE

(1/2) (mass) (70 m/s)² = (0.9) (mass) (gravity) (height)

Divide each side by (mass):

   (0.5) (4900 m²/s²) = (0.9) (9.8 m/s²) (height)

(There goes the mass. As long as the whole thing is 90% efficient,
the solution will be the same for any number of cars, loaded with
any number of passengers.)

Divide each side by (0.9):

   (0.5/0.9) (4900 m²/s²) = (9.8 m/s²) (height)

Divide each side by (9.8 m/s²):

   Height = (5/9)(4900 m²/s²) / (9.8 m/s²)

      = (5 x 4900 m²/s²) / (9 x 9.8 m/s²)

      = (24,500 / 88.2) (m²/s²) / (m/s²)

      = 277-7/9 meters
      (about 911 feet)

38.4 mol of krypton is in a rigid box of volume 64 cm^3 and is initially at temperature 512.88°C. The gas then undergoes isobari

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Final volumen first process $V_{2} = 98,44 cm^{3}$

Final Pressure second process $P_{3} = 1,317 * 10^{10} Pa$

Explanation:

Using the Ideal Gases Law yoy have for pressure:

$P_{1} = \frac{n_{1} R T_{1} }{V_{1} }$

where:

P is the pressure, in Pa

n is the nuber of moles of gas

R is the universal gas constant: 8,314 J/mol K

T is the temperature in Kelvin

V is the volumen in cubic meters

Given that the amount of material is constant in the process:

$n_{1} = n_{2} = n$

In an isobaric process the pressure is constant so:

$P_{1} = P_{2}$

$\frac{n R T_{1} }{V_{1} } = \frac{n R T_{2} }{V_{2} }$

$\frac{T_{1} }{V_{1} } = \frac{T_{2} }{V_{2} }$

$V_{2} = \frac{T_{2} V_{1} }{T_{1} }$

Replacing : $T_{1} =786 K, T_{2} =1209 K, V_{1} = 64 cm^{3}$

$V_{2} = 98,44 cm^{3}$

Replacing on the ideal gases formula the pressure at this piont is:

$P_{2} = 3,92 * 10^{9} Pa$

For Temperature the ideal gases formula is:

$T = \frac{P V }{n R }$

For the second process you have that $T_{2} = T_{3}$ So:

$\frac{P_{2} V_{2} }{n R } = \frac{P_{3} V_{3} }{n R }$

$P_{2} V_{2} = P_{3} V_{3}$

$P_{3} = \frac{P_{2} V_{2}}{V_{3}}$

$P_{3} = 1,317 * 10^{10} Pa$

If Star A and Star B have the same absolute magnitude, but Star A is brighter, what does that tell us?

Hatshy [7]

We can conclude that star A is closer to us than star B.

In fact, the absolute magnitude gives a measure of the brightness of the star, if all the stars are placed at the same distance from Earth. So, it's a measure of the absolute luminosity of the star, indipendently from its distance from us: since the two stars have same absolute magnitude, it means that if they were at same distance from Earth, they would appear with same luminosity. Instead, we see star A brighter than star B, and the only explanation is that star A is closer to Earth than star B (the closer the star A, the brigther it is)
