<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

The generation of a magnetic field by an electric current is___ .
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

Electromagnetic induction

Explanation:

The process of generating electric current with a magnetic field. It occurs whenever a magnetic field and an electric conductor move relative to one another so the conductor crosses lines of force in the magnetic field.

Una prenda de 320gramos de ropa gira en el interior de una lavadora si dicha lavadora tiene 40 cm y gira con una frecuencia de 4
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Período del tambor: T = 0.25\,s, fuerza sobre la prenda: F \approx 80.852\,N, velocidad lineal del tambor: v \approx 10.053\,\frac{m}{s}, velocidad angular del tambor: \omega \approx 25.133\,\frac{rad}{s}.

Explanation:

La expresión tiene un error por omisión, su forma correcta queda descrita a continuación:

<em>"Una prenda de 320 gramos de ropa gira en el interior de una lavadora si dicha lavadora tiene un radio de 40 centímetros y gira con una frecuencia de 4 hertz. Halle </em><em>a)</em><em> el período, </em><em>b) </em><em>la velocidad angular, </em><em>c) </em><em>la fuerza con la que gira la prenda y </em><em>d) </em><em>la velocidad lineal de la lavadora."</em>

El tambor gira a velocidad angular constante (\omega), en radianes por segundo, lo cual significa que la prenda experimenta una aceleración centrífuga (a), en metros por segundo al cuadrado. En primer lugar, calculamos el período de rotación del tambor (T), en segundos:

T = \frac{1}{f} (1)

Donde f es la frecuencia, en hertz.

(f = 4\,hz)

T = \frac{1}{4\,hz}

T = 0.25\,s

Ahora determinamos la fuerza aplicada sobre la prenda (F), en newtons:

F = m\cdot a (2)

F = \frac{4\pi^{2}\cdot m \cdot r}{T^{2}} (2b)

Donde:

m - Masa de la prenda, en kilogramos.

r - Radio interior del tambor, en metros.

(m = 0.32\,kg, r = 0.4\,m, T = 0.25\,s)

F = \frac{4\pi^{2}\cdot (0.32\,kg)\cdot (0.4\,m)}{(0.25\,s)^{2}}

F \approx 80.852\,N

La velocidad lineal de la lavadora es:

v = \frac{2\pi\cdot r}{T} (3)

(r = 0.4\,m, T = 0.25\,s)

v = \frac{2\pi\cdot (0.4\,m)}{0.25\,s}

v \approx 10.053\,\frac{m}{s}

Y la velocidad angular del tambor de la lavadora:

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T}

(T = 0.25\,s)

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{0.25\,s}

\omega \approx 25.133\,\frac{rad}{s}
