Answer: 0.4 Amps

Explanation:

Voltage of battery = 24 Volts

Current I = ?

Resistance of searchlight (R)= 60ohms (Ω is the symbol for ohms)

Then, apply the formula for ohms law

Voltage = Current x resistance

i.e V = I x R

24V = I x 60Ω

I = 24V / 60Ω

I = 0.4 Amps (Amps is the unit of current)

Thus, the current in the circuit is 0.4 Amps

dusya [7]

Answer:

28 degree C

Explanation:

We are given that

T_1=4.00^{\circ}

R_1=217.7 \Ohm

R_2=215.1\Ohm

\alpha=-5.00\times 10^{-4}C^{-1}

We have to find the temperature on a spring day when resistance is 215.1 ohm.

We know that

\alpha(T_2-T_1)=\frac{R_2}{R_2}-1

Using the formula

-5.00\times 10^{-4}(T_2-4)=\frac{215.1}{217.7}-1

-5\times 10^{-4}(T_2-4)=0.988-1=-0.012

T_2-4=\frac{0.012}{5\times 10^{-4}}=24

T_2=24+4=28^{\circ}C

Hence, the temperature  on a spring day 28 degree C.

À A car moves with an initial velocity of 18 m/s due north. Find the velocity of the car after 7 Os if
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

(a) v_f=28.5m/s

(b) v_f=7.5m/s

Explanation:

Hello.

(a) In this case since the car is moving at an initial velocity of 18 m/s due north, the final velocity is computed considering the acceleration as positive since it is due north as well:

v_f=v_0+at=18m/s+1.5m/s^2*7s\\\\v_f=28.5m/s

(b) In this case, since the car is moving due north by the acceleration is due south it is undergoing a slowing down process, thereby the acceleration is negative therefore the final velocity turns out:

v_f=v_0+at=18m/s-1.5m/s^2*7s\\\\v_f=7.5m/s

Best regards.
