Answer: The correct answer is-15 Volts.

Explanation-

Voltage of a battery can be defined as the difference in electric potential that lies between the positive and negative terminals of a battery.

It can be calculated using Ohm's law, which states that the electric potential difference between two points on a circuit is equal to the product of the current that flows between the two points (I) and the total resistance that sis present between the two points. It can be mathematically depicted as-

ΔV = I • R

Putting the value of 'I' and 'R', we get-

ΔV = 5 X 3

= 15 V

The orbital radius of an electron in a hydrogen atom is 0.846 nm. What is its de Broglie wavelength?

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

The value is $\lambda = 1.329 *10^{-9} \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The orbital radius is $r = 0.846nm = 0.846 *10^{-9} \ m$

Generally the de Broglie wavelength is mathematically represented as

$\lambda = \frac{2 * \pi r}{4}$

substituting values

$\lambda = \frac{ 2 * 3.142 * 0.846 *10^{-9}}{4}$

$\lambda = 1.329 *10^{-9} \ m$

What is the magnitude of the velocity when the elastic potential energy is equal to the kinetic energy? (Assume that U=0 at equi

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

General Equation of SHM is given by

$x=A\cos \omega t$

$v=-A\omega \sin \omega t$

where x=position of particle

A=maximum Amplitude

$\omega =$ angular frequency

t=time

At any time Total Energy is the sum of kinetic Energy and Elastic potential Energy i.e. $\frac{1}{2}kA^2$

where k=spring constant

Potential Energy is given by $U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

also it is given that Potential Energy(U) is equal to Kinetic Energy(K)

Total Energy $=K+U$

Total $=2U=2\times \frac{1}{2}kx^2$

$\frac{1}{2}kA^2=2\times \frac{1}{2}kx^2$

$x=\pm \frac{A}{\sqrt{2}}$

at $x=\frac{A}{\sqrt{2}}$

velocity is $v=\frac{A\omega}{\sqrt{2}}$

At what temperature (degrees Fahrenheit) is the Fahrenheit scale reading equal to (a) 2 times that of the Celsius and (b) 1/4 ti

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

(a) F = 320

(b) = F = -5.1625

Explanation:

The formula that converts degree Celsius (C) to degree Fahrenheit (F) is:

F = 1.8C + 32

Solving (a): F = 2C

Substitute 2C for F in the above equation

F = 1.8C + 32

2C = 1.8C + 32

Collect like terms

2C - 1.8C = 32

0.2C = 32

Multiply both sides by 5

5 * 0.2C = 32 * 5

C = 160

Recall that F = 2C

F = 2 * 160

F = 320

Solving (b): F = ¼C

Substitute ¼C for F in the above formula

F = 1.8C + 32

¼C = 1.8C + 32

Convert fraction to decimal

0.25C = 1.8C + 32

Collect like terms

0.25C - 1.8C = 32

-1.55C = 32

Divide both sides by -1.55

C = 32/(-1.55)

C = -32/1.55

C = -20.65

Recall that: F = ¼C

F = -¼ * 20.65

F = -5.1625

A 1640 kg merry-go-round with a radius of 7.50 m accelerates from rest to a rate of 1.00 revolution per 8.00 s. Estimate the mer

son4ous [18]

Solution :

Given data :

Mass of the merry-go-round, m= 1640 kg

Radius of the merry-go-round, r = 7.50 m

Angular speed, $\omega = \frac{1}{8}$ rev/sec

$=\frac{2 \pi \times 7.5}{8}$ rad/sec

= 5.89 rad/sec

Therefore, force required,

$F=m.\omega^2.r$

$$$=1640 \times (5.89)^2 \times 7.5$

= 427126.9 N

Thus, the net work done for the acceleration is given by :

W = F x r

= 427126.9 x 7.5

= 3,203,451.75 J
