Two different electrical devices have the same power consumption, but one is meant to be operated on 120-V AC and the other on 2

40-V AC. What is the ratio of the resistance of 240V device to the resistance of the 120V device i.e. \frac{R_{240}}{R_{120}} R 120 R 240 ?

Answer:4

Explanation:

For same Power one device is operated at $V_1=120 V$ and another at $V_2=240\ V$

Suppose $R_1$ and $R_2$ is the resistance of first and second device respectively

using $P=\frac{V^}{R}$

For first device

$P=\frac{(120)^2}{R_1}$

$R_1=\frac{120^2}{P}$

For second Device

$R_2=\frac{240^}{P}$

Ratio of resistances are

$\frac{R_2}{R_1}=\frac{240^2}{120^2}$

$\frac{R_2}{R_1}=(2)^2$

$\frac{R_2}{R_1}=4$

How do modern scientist describe the make up of matter

lbvjy [14]

The matter is a collection or composition of extremely small particles called "Atoms".

<u>Explanation</u>:

The matter is anything that has mass and which utilizes space by having volume.
Modern scientists describe the makeup of matter as a collection of tiny substances called atoms.
Matter can either be in solid, liquid, or gaseous state and even appear in plasma form.
Matter can neither be created nor be destroyed but only transferred from one form to the other.
Atoms are composed protons, neutrons and electrons. The protons and neutrons are contained in the nucleus, while the electrons orbit around the nucleus of the atom.
Protons are positively charged, neutrons are neutral and electrons are negative.

Point A of the circular disk is at the angular position θ = 0 at time t = 0. The disk has angular velocity ω0 = 0.17 rad/s at t

statuscvo [17]

Given that,

Angular velocity = 0.17 rad/s

Angular acceleration = 1.3 rad/s²

Time = 1.7 s

We need to calculate the angular velocity

Using angular equation of motion

$\omega=\omega_{0}+\alpha t$

Put the value in the equation

$\omega=0.17+1.3\times1.7$

$\omega=2.38(k)\ m/s$

We need to calculate the angular displacement

Using angular equation of motion

$\theta=\theta_{0}+\omega_{0}t+\dfrac{\alpha t^2}{2}$

Put the value in the equation

$\theta=0+0.17\times1.7+\dfrac{1.3\times1.7^2}{2}$

$\theta=2.1675\times\dfrac{180}{\pi}$

$\theta= 124.18^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the velocity at point A

Using equation of motion

$v_{A}=v_{0}+\omega\times r$

Put the value into the formula

$v_{A}=0+2.38(k) \times0.2(\cos(124.18)i+\sin(124.18)j))$

$v_{A}=0.476\cos(124.18)j+0.476\sin(124.18)i$

$v_{A}=(-0.267j-0.393i)\ m/s$

We need to calculate the acceleration at point A

Using equation of motion

$a_{A}=a_{0}+\alpha\times r+\omega\times(\omega\times r)$

Put the value in the equation

$a_{A}=0+1.3(k)\times0.2(\cos(124.18)i+\sin(124.18)j)+2.38\times2.38\times0.2(\cos(124.18)i+\sin(124.18)j)$

$a_{A}=0.26\cos(124.18)i+0.26\sin(124.18)j+(2.38)^2\times0.2(\cos(124.18)i+\sin(124.18)j)$

$a_{A}=-0.146j-0.215i−0.636i+0.937j$

$a_{A}=0.791j-0.851i$

$a_{A}=-0.851i+0.791j\ m/s^2$

Hence, (a). The velocity at point A is $(-0.267j-0.393i)\ m/s$

(b). The acceleration at point A is $(-0.851i+0.791j)\ m/s^2$
