Answer:

The RMS voltage across the resistor = 28 V

Explanation:

Capacitor: A capacitor is an electrical device that has the ability to store electrical charges in an electrical circuit. It is expressed in Farad (F)

Resistor: A resistor is an electrical device that oppose the flow of electric current in a circuit. It is expressed in ohms (Ω)

RMS Voltage : RMS voltage  value of an alternating voltage is defined as that value of steady voltage which would dissipate heat at the same rate in a given resistance

Since the it is a series circuit, the total voltage is divided across the resistance and the capacitor.

Vt = V₁ + V₂...........................Equation 1

Where Vt = total Rms voltage = 120 V ,  V₁ = Rms voltage across the Capacitor = 92 V, V₂ = Rms voltage across the resistor.

Making V₂ the subject of the equation in equation 1 above,

V₂ = Vt - V₁  = 120 - 92

V₂ = 28 V.

The RMS voltage across the resistor = 28 V

The kinetic energy of a moving object is E=12mv2. A 61 kg runner is moving at 10kmh. However, her speedometer is only accurate t
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

e=3367.2J

%e=1.43%

Explanation:

From the exercise we know two information. The real speed and the experimental measured by the speedometer

v_{r}=10km/h=2.77m/s

Since the speedometer is only accurate to within 0.1km/h the experimental speed is

v_{e}=10km/h-0.1km/h=9.9km/h=2.75m/s

Knowing that we can calculate Kinetic energy for the real and experimental speed

E_{r}=\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}(61000g)(2.77m/s)^2=234023J

E_{e}=\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}(61000g)(2.75m/s)^2=230656J

Now, the potential error in her calculated kinetic energy is:

e=E_{r}-E_{e}=(234023-230656)J=3367.2J

%e=\frac{E_{r}-E_{e}}{E_{r}}x100=\frac{(234023-230656)J}{234023J}x100=1.43%

What is the wavelength of a 100 mhz radio signal?
Daniel [21]
100 MHz = 100,000,000 Hz = 10^8<span> Hz

And using basic conversions between frequencies, I've determined that the wavelength is roughly 3 meters.</span>

car is moving at 40 m/s. At 10 meters the driver spots a deer on the road and instantly steps on the brakes. If the car is 400 k
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

32000 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 40 m/s

Distance (s) = 10 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Mass (m) of car = 400 Kg

Force (F) =?

Next, we shall determine the acceleration of the the car. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 40 m/s

Distance (s) = 10 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Acceleration (a) =?

v² = u² + 2as

0² = 40² + (2 × a × 10)

0 = 1600 + 20a

Collect like terms

0 – 1600 = 20a

–1600 = 20a

Divide both side by –1600

a = –1600 / 20

a = –80 m/s²

The negative sign indicate that the car is decelerating i.e coming to rest.

Finally, we shall determine the force needed to stop the car. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) of car = 400 Kg

Acceleration (a) = –80 m/s²

Force (F) =?

F = ma

F = 400 × –80

F = – 32000 N

NOTE: The negative sign indicate that the force is in opposite direction to the motion of the car.
