Answer:

No.

Explanation:

A great circle is the circle that passes through the center point of the sphere. This means that it is the largest circle to be drawn in a sphere. So, the great circle of Earth would be the equation.

The nearest marked latitude to my location is the tropic of cancer. Any latitude that is not the equator is not the great circle of Earth. So, it is not an example of the great circle of Earth.

A medium-sized jet has a 3.8-m-diameter fuselage and a loaded mass of 85,000 kg. The drag on an airplane is primarily due to the
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

2.4\times 10^{5} N

Explanation:

The force of drag is given by

F= 0.5 C\rho Av^{2}

C is coefficient of drag

\rhois density of air

A is area which is given by \frac {\pi d^{2}}{4}

V is the velocity

F= 0.5*0.37*1.7\times \frac {\pi 3.8^{2}}{4}\times 260^{2}=2.4\times 10^{5} N

1. 50 W and 100 W lamps are designed for the same voltage. Which lamp has the higher filament resistance and why?
KiRa [710]

Answer:

Look below.

Explanation:

1.) The resistance of a light bulb filament is effected by both length and cross-sectional area. Thicker wires have less resistance. A 120-Watt bulb has a greater current and a smaller resistance. Thus, a 120-Watt bulb must have a thicker filament than a 60-Watt bulb (assuming the lengths of the filaments are identical). We also think of lightbulbs in terms of their power ratings in watts. Let us compare a 25-W bulb with a 60-W bulb. Since both operate on the same voltage, the 60-W bulb must draw more current to have a greater power rating. Thus the 60-W bulb’s resistance must be lower than that of a 25-W bulb. If we increase voltage, we also increase power. For example, when a 25-W bulb that is designed to operate on 120 V is connected to 240 V, it briefly glows very brightly and then burns out. Precisely how are voltage, current, and resistance related to electric power?

2.) Energy transferred = 120 × 2 = 240 J. This equation can be rearranged to V = E ÷ Q. So voltage is energy transferred divided by charge.

3.) Power= Voltage × Current

4.) W=Pt
