<u>Answer</u>: The potential difference across the resistor is 12 volts.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the potential difference cross the resistor, we use Ohm's Law. This law states that the potential difference across two wires is directly proportional to the current flowing through that wire.

Mathematically,

V\propto I\\V=IR

Where,

V = potential difference = ?V

I = Current flowing = 1.2 A

R = Resistor = 10\Omega

Putting values in above equation, we get:

V=1.2\times 10=12V

Hence, the potential difference across the resistor is 12 volts

juin [17]

Answer:

The maximum temperature is 90.06° C

Explanation:

Given that

t= 0.1 mm

Heat generation

q_g=0.3\ MW/m^3

Heat transfer coefficient

h=500\ W/m^2K

Here one side(left side) of the wall is insulated so the all heat will goes in to right side .

The maximum temperature will at the left side.

Lets take maximum temperature is T

Total heat flux ,q

q=q_g\times t

q=0.3\times 1000000\times 0.1 \times 10^{-3}\ W/m^2

q=30\ W/m^2

So the total thermal resistance per unit area

R=\dfrac{t}{K}+\dfrac{1}{h}

R=\dfrac{0.1\times 10^{-3}}{25}+\dfrac{1}{500}

R=0.002 K/W

We know that

q=ΔT/R

30=(T-90)/0.002

T=90.06° C

The maximum temperature is 90.06° C

A block rests on a ?at plate that executes vertical simple harmonic motion with a period of 0.58s.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

maximum amplitude  = 0.08 m

Explanation:

Given that

Time period T= 0.58 s

acceleration of gravity g= 9.8 m/s²

We know that time period of simple harmonic motion given as

T = 2π/ω

0.58 = 2π/ω

ω = 10.83rad/s

ω=angular frequency

Lets take amplitude = A

The maximum acceleration given as

a= ω² A

The maximum acceleration should be equal to g ,then block does not separate

a= ω² A

9.8 =  10.83² A

A = 0.08m

maximum amplitude  = 0.08 m
