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

Answer:

The total amount of energy that would have been released if the asteroid hit earth = The kinetic energy of the asteroid = 1.29 × 10¹⁵ J = 1.29 PetaJoules = 1.29 PJ

1 PJ = 10¹⁵ J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy = mv²/2

velocity of the asteroid is given as 7.8 km/s = 7800 m/s

To obtain the mass, we get it from the specific gravity and diameter information given.

Density = specific gravity × 1000 = 3 × 1000 = 3000 kg/m³

But density = mass/volume

So, mass = density × volume.

Taking the informed assumption that the asteroid is a sphere,

Volume = 4πr³/3

Diameter = 30 m, r = D/2 = 15 m

Volume = 4π(15)³/3 = 14137.2 m³

Mass of the asteroid = density × volume = 3000 × 14137.2 = 42411501 kg = 4.24 × 10⁷ kg

Kinetic energy of the asteroid = mv²/2 = (4.24 × 10⁷)(7800²)/2 = 1.29 × 10¹⁵ J

A piece of metal has a mass of 9.00 kg. If it displaces water that fills a container 10.0 cm x 10.0 cm x 10.0 cm, what is the ma

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

9000 kg/m³

Explanation:

Density is mass per volume.

D = M / V

D = (9.00 kg) / (0.100 m × 0.100 m × 0.100 m)

D = 9000 kg/m³

Why don't we feel pressure exerted by atmosphere?

ozzi

Crushing pressure. Human bodies are used to air pressure. The air pressure in our lungs, ears and stomachs is the same as the air pressure outside of our bodies, which ensures that we don't get crushed. Our bodies are also flexible enough to cope when the internal and external pressures aren't exactly the same.
