A fire truck has a searchlight with a resistance of 60 (ohm) which is placed across a 24-V battery. What is the current in this

1 answer:
Mariulka [41]3 years ago
3 0

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

A kid is on a stationary sled, on
gregori [183]

The mass of the kid and the sled is 50.0 kg

Explanation:

The sled starts to move when the force applied becomes larger than the maximum force of static friction, which is given by

F_{max} = \mu_s mg

where

\mu_s is the coefficient of static friction

m is the mass of the kid + the sled

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Here the sled starts moving when the force applied is 61.2 N, so

F_{max}=61.2 N

And we also know

\mu_s = 0.125

Therefore, we can find the mass of the kid and the sled by re-arranging the equation:

m=\frac{F_{max}}{\mu_s g}=\frac{61.2}{(0.125)(9.8)}=50.0 kg

1. If you were the organizer of this dance event, are you favor in moving the date on May? Why
topjm [15]

Answer:

I am in favor of the dance event being in may. Because it is nice weather outside, more people will decide to come and spend their time there. It is also light in the evening in may, meaning that you could have the dance event at any time, and younger people will still feel safe at night, meaning their parents will be more open to lwtting kids go.

Dez pours water (n 1.333) into a container made of crown glass (n 1.52). The light ray in ner made of crown glass (n = 1.52). Th
siniylev [52]

Answer:

The angle of the corresponding refracted ray is 34.84°

Explanation:

Given that,

Refractive index of water n= 1.33

Refractive index of glass n= 1.52

Incident angle = 30.0°

We need to calculate the refracted angle

Using formula of Snell's law

n_{i}\sin i=n_{r}\sin r

Put the value into the formula

\sin r=\dfrac{n_{i}\sin i}{n_{r}}

\sin r=\dfrac{1.52\times\sin30}{1.33}

\sin r=0.5714

r=sin^{-1}0.5714

r = 34.84^{\circ}

Hence, The angle of the corresponding refracted ray is 34.84°

GaryK [48]

Answer:

The results of the experiment indicated a shift consistent with zero, and certainly less than a twentieth of the shift expected if the Earth's velocity in orbit around the sun was the same as its velocity through the ether.

A horizontal spring with spring constant 85 N/m extends outward from a wall just above floor level. A 2.5 kg box sliding across
Nikolay [14]

As the box compresses the spring, the spring performs

-1/2 (85 N/m) (0.065 m)² ≈ -0.18 J

of work on the box. By the work energy theorem, the total work performed on the box (which is done only by the spring since there's no friction) is equal to the change in the box's kinetic energy. At full compression, the box has zero instantaneous speed, so

<em>W</em> = ∆<em>K</em>   ==>   -0.18 J = 0 - 1/2 (2.5 kg) <em>v</em> ²

where <em>v</em> is the box's speed when it first comes into contact with the spring. Solve for <em>v</em> :

<em>v</em> ² ≈ 0.14 m²/s²   ==>   <em>v</em> ≈ 0.38 m/s
