Answer: $-4.5 m/s^2$

Explanation:

The average acceleration of the car is given by:

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

where

u = 45 m/s is the initial velocity

v = 0 m/s is the final velocity

t = 10 s is the time taken

Substituting the numbers into the equation, we find

$a=\frac{0 -45 m/s}{10 s}=-4.5 m/s^2$

A certain 20-A circuit breaker trips when the current in it equals 20 A. What is the maximum number of 100-W light bulbs you can

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer: 28

Explanation:

Given

Circuit breaker current is $I=20\ A$

Power of the light bulb is $P=100\ W$

Voltage of the DC-circuit is $V=120\ V$

If the resistance are connected in parallel, they must have same voltage i.e. 120 V

So, Resistance is given by

$\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\\\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{120^2}{100}\\\\\Rightarrow R=144\ \Omega$

For the 20 A current and 120 V battery, net resistance is

$\Rightarrow R_{net}=\dfrac{120}{20}\\\\\Rightarrow R_{net}=6\ \Omega$

Suppose there are n resistance in the circuit connected in parallel.

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{144}{n}=R_{net}\\\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{144}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow n=28.8\approx 28\ \text{for current to be less than 20A}$

Thus, there can maximum of 28 bulbs.

(1).....opaque -object that not allow light to pass through it

we can't look through opaque objects

ex..wall

translucent... objects that all some light to pass through it

we can partially see through it

ex...coloured glass window

transparent... objects that wholly allow light to pass through it

we can clearly see through it

ex...glass of specs

(2)..the bouncing back of light from a smooth polished surface is called reflection of light

(3)/.....there must be a solid ,opaque to block light

there must be a source of light

there must be a surface to have shadow on it..

(6)...reflected images r formed by light reflection from a smooth polished surface while shadows are formed by blockage of light by an solid,opaque object...

Please help ASAP will mark brainliest How do we find the amount of uncertainty we should expect in our measurement of the period

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

The relative uncertainty gives the uncertainty as a percentage of the original value. Work this out with: Relative uncertainty = (absolute uncertainty ÷ best estimate) × 100%. So in the example above: Relative uncertainty = (0.2 cm ÷ 3.4 cm) × 100% = 5.9%. The value can therefore be quoted as 3.4 cm ± 5.9%.
