She uses a voltmeter, that measures in volts, and an ammeter that measures in amps. Both were correctly placed in her circuit. I

n her notes she wrote x = 0.15 z = 0.3 but did not indicate volts or amps, or which meter was which. The resistor on the left is 5 ohms. (A) Which was the ammeter? explain. (B) What is the voltage difference across each resistor? Explain. (C) What is the voltage of the battery? Explain.

Answer:

A) the ammeter is x  

B)

  • voltage across R₁ (left resistor) =  0.75 V
  • voltage across the right one  = 0.3 V

C) 1.05 V

Explanation:

From the diagram attached below;

A) Assuming the homes were wired in series, and one of the homes face short circuit then all the houses would face power cut but it doesn't happen. So they must be connected in parallel.

Therefore; The ammeter is  connected in series, Hence, the ammeter is x  and the voltmeter must be z.

B)

Given that:

x = 0.15 A

z = 0.3 V

Resistor (R) on the left = 5 ohms

Then, voltage across R₁ (left resistor) = 5×(x)

= 5×0.15

= 0.75 V

voltage across the right one = z = 0.3 V

C)

The total voltage of battery = 0.75+0.3 = 1.05 V

<span>Match the basic components of a nuclear reactor with their descriptions. 1. slows down neutrons moderator - This is the substance that slows down fast neutrons and makes them slow neutrons which are easier to capture by the atomic nuclei so that the fission reaction can continue. 2. absorb emitted neutrons control rods - These are rods made up of a substance that easily absorbs neutrons. Their purpose is to slow down or shut down the reaction. 3. mass of unstable atoms nuclear fuel - The entire point of a nuclear reactor is the capture the energy released by the fission of unstable atoms. So this mass of unstable atoms is the fuel for the nuclear reactor. 4. concrete and lead enclosure shield - This is the enclosure that prevents radiation from escaping into the general environment. 5. energy transfer medium coolant - Since the purpose of a nuclear reactor is to generate usable energy, the coolant extracts heat from the fissioning core and that heat is generally used to boil water which in turn is used to operate turbines that power electrical generators.</span>

A light horizontal spring has a spring constant of 138 N/m. A 3.35 kg block is pressed against one end of the spring, compressin
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

U_k = 0.113

Explanation:

using the law of the conservation of energy:

E_i -E_f=W_f

\frac{1}{2}Kx^2=NU_kd

where K is the spring constant, x is the spring compression, N is the normal force of the block, U_k is the coefficiet of kinetic friction and d is the distance.

Also, by laws of newton, N is calculated by:

N = mg

N = 3.35 kg * 9.81 m/s

N = 32.8635

So, Replacing values on the first equation, we get:

\frac{1}{2}(138)(0.123)^2= (32.8635)U_k(0.281m)

solving for U_k:

U_k = 0.113
