The moon has a greater effect, because it has a gravitational pull also known as gravity.

spin [16.1K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to Ohm's law and Electric Power. By Ohm's law we know that resistance is equivalent to,

$R_{eq}= \frac{V}{I}$

Here,

V = Voltage

I = Current

While the power is equivalent to the product between the current and the voltage, thus solving for the current we have,

$P=VI \rightarrow I = \frac{P}{V}$

$I =0.608 A$

Applying Ohm's law

$R_{eq} = \frac{120V}{0.608A}$

$R_{eq} = 197.4\Omega$

Therefore the equivalent resistance of the light string is $197.4\Omega$

An LR circuit contains an ideal 60-V battery, a 42-H inductor having no resistance, a 24-ΩΩ resistor, and a switch S, all in ser

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

1.6 s

Explanation:

To find the time in which the potential difference of the inductor reaches 24V you use the following formula:

$V_L=V_oe^{-\frac{Rt}{L}}$

V_o: initial voltage = 60V

R: resistance = 24-Ω

L: inductance = 42H

V_L: final voltage = 24 V

You first use properties of the logarithms to get time t, next, replace the values of the parameter:

$\frac{V_L}{V_o}=e^{-\frac{Rt}{L}}\\\\ln(\frac{V_L}{V_o})=-\frac{Rt}{L}\\\\t=-\frac{L}{R}ln(\frac{V_L}{V_o})\\\\t=-\frac{42H}{24\Omega}ln(\frac{24V}{60V})=1.6s$

hence, after 1.6s the inductor will have a potential difference of 24V
