Answer:

R = 441 ohms

Explanation :

It is given that,

Power of the lamp, P = 100 watts

Voltage, V = 210 volts

The power of an electrical appliance can be written as :

$P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}$

$R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}$

$R=\dfrac{(210\ V)^2}{100\ W}$

R = 441 ohms

So, the resistance of the lamp is 441 ohms

Hence, this is the required solution.

Resistance = Voltage/Current
Wattage = Voltage * Current

 That means the current drawn by the lamp is equal to 100 watts divided by 210 volts.

Resistance = $\frac{210}{ \frac{100}{210} }$

A net force of -1,000 Newtons is delivered to the object over a time of .02 seconds. Calculate the new velocity of the object.

MariettaO [177]

The change in velocity (v₂ - v₁) is

 (-20) / (the object's mass).

Call it a crazy hunch, but I can't shake the feeling that there was more
to the question before the part you copied, that mentioned the object's
mass, and its velocity before this force came along.

A force of 6600 N is exerted on a piston that has an area of 0.010 m2

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Choice A: approximately $0.015\; \rm m^2$ , assuming that the two pistons are connected via some confined liquid to form a simple machine.

Explanation:

Assume that the two pistons are connected via some liquid that is confined. Pressure from the first piston:

$\displaystyle P_1 = \frac{F_1}{A_1} = \frac{6.600\times 10^3\; \rm N}{1.0\times 10^{-2}\; \rm m^{2}} = 6.6\times 10^{5}\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}$ .

By Pascal's Principle, because the first piston exerted a pressure of $6.6\times 10^{5}\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}$ on the liquid, the liquid will now exert the same amount of pressure on the walls of the container.

Assume that the second piston is part of that wall. The pressure on the second piston will also be $6.6\times 10^{5}\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}$ . In other words:

$P_2 = P_1 = 6.6\times 10^{5}\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}$ .

To achieve a force of $9.900 \times 10^3\; \rm N$ , the surface area of the second piston should be:

$\displaystyle A_2 = \frac{F_2}{P_2} = \frac{9.900\times 10^{3}\; \rm N}{6.6\times 10^5\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}} \approx 0.015\; \rm m^{2}$ .

Which of the following types of light microscopy improves the resolution of thick specimens by illuminating one plane of the spe

Vilka [71]

Answer:

confocal microscopy

Explanation:

According to my research on different types of microscopes, I can say that based on the information provided within the question the tool being mentioned in this situation is a confocal microscopy. This is an extremely powerful microscope used to develop extremely sharp images of cells and tissues by viewing one plane of the specimen at a given time.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.
