The ohms law states that  he potential difference of a current carrying conductor is proportional to the current and the resistance is constant.
therefore; mathematically; V = IR where V is the voltage , I is the current and R is the resistance in the conductor.
Making I the subject we get I=V/R
Therefore to get current we divide voltage by the resistance
 I = 120 ÷ 60 = 2 Ampheres
Therefore the current is 2 Ampheres

What is the moment of inertia of a 2.0 kg, 20-cm-diameter disk for rotation about an axis (a) through the center, and (b) throug
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

(a) I=0.01 kg.m²

(b) I=0.03 kg.m²

Explanation:

Given data

Mass of disk M=2.0 kg

Diameter of disk d=20 cm=0.20 m

To Find

(a) Moment of inertia through the center of disk

(b) Moment of inertia through the edge of disk

Solution

For (a) Moment of inertia through the center of disk

Using the equation of moment  of Inertia

I=\frac{1}{2}MR^{2}\\  I=\frac{1}{2}(2.0kg)(0.20m/2)^{2}\\  I=0.01 kg m^{2}

For (b) Moment of inertia through the edge of disk

We can apply parallel axis theorem for calculating moment of inertia

I=(1/2)MR^{2}+MD\\ Here\\D=R\\I=(1/2)(2.0kg)(0.20m/2)^{2}+(2.0kg)(0.20m/2)^{2}\\  I=0.03kgm^{2}

In a race, you run 3000 meters east in 21 minutes. What is your velocity in km/min?
STALIN [3.7K]

velocity = distance / time      v= d/t          firstly you change 3000 m into km     distance  D = 3000/1000  = 3 km             secondly   time t = 21 min      using velocity formula v = d/t       = 3 km/21min       =0.142km/min

A kayakeris paddling 2.50 m/s at an angle of 45° (northeast) and the current is moving 1.25 m/s at an angle of 315° (southeast).
PIT_PIT [208]

The kayaker has velocity vector

<em>v</em> = (2.50 m/s) (cos(45º) <em>i</em> + sin(45º) <em>j</em> )

<em>v</em> ≈ (1.77 m/s) (<em>i</em> + <em>j</em> )

and the current has velocity vector

<em>w</em> = (1.25 m/s) (cos(315º) <em>i</em> + sin(315º) <em>j</em> )

<em>w</em> ≈ (0.884 m/s) (<em>i</em> - <em>j</em> )

The kayaker's total velocity is the sum of these:

<em>v</em> + <em>w</em> ≈ (2.65 m/s) <em>i</em> + (0.884 m/s) <em>j</em>

That is, the kayaker has a velocity of about ||<em>v</em> + <em>w</em>|| ≈ 2.80 m/s in a direction <em>θ</em> such that

tan(<em>θ</em>) = (0.884 m/s) / (2.65 m/s)   →   <em>θ</em> ≈ 18.4º

or about 18.4º north of east.
