What does the measurement 6.5 V represent?

WITCHER [35]3 years ago

I'm not sure.
Where did you see it ?

If you saw it on a voltmeter, then it stands for "6.5 volts".
It tells you that the 'potential difference' or 'electromotive force'
between the two points connected to the meter is 6.5 volts.

-- If a 1-ohm resistor were connected between those two points,
then 6.5 coulombs of charge would move through the resistor every
second.  We would say that the "current" through the resistor is
6.5 Amperes, or "six'na half amps".

-- Each coulomb of charge (6.25 x 10¹⁸ electrons) that moves from
one of those points to the other one either gains or loses 6.5 joules
of energy, depending on which direction it moves.

-- So the resistor would need to shed heat somehow, at the rate of
6.5 watts (6.5 joules per second).  If it couldn't do that, then it would
go through an interesting series of changes.  It would get warm, then
get hot, then glow cherry red, then glow bright red, then glow orange,
then glow bright yellow, then make a sound like a "POP".  Then it would
break in the middle, and a little wisp of smoke would come out of it.
The two halves of the resistor would sink, sag from their wires, and
the current between the two points would stop. 

We would say that the resistor had "fused", "failed", "melted", "burned out",
or "bought the farm" ... all because it couldn't get rid of heat fast enough.

Which statements describe elliptical galaxies? *Select the two correct answers.*
Alecsey [184]

Elliptical galaxies are galaxies that are shaped like an ellipse. An ellipse is oval in shape, which means elliptical galaxies are oval in shape.

The <u>two correct statements</u> that describe elliptical galaxies are:

B. They are the most common galaxy type.

C. They typically contain very little gas and dust.

  • Elliptical galaxies are galaxies where you will find little or no gas and dust. The galaxies that are numerous in number are the elliptical galaxies.

  • In the elliptical galaxy, you can't find any <u>spiral component </u>in it.

Therefore, from the above explanation, we can see that <u>option B and C is the correct option.</u>

Daisy walks across a force platform, and forces exerted by her foot during a step are recorded. The peak velocity reaction force
Len [333]

Answer:

(a). The resultant of these forces is 1216.55 N.

(b).  The direction of the resultant forces is 80.53°.

Explanation:

Given that,

First force = 1200 N

Second force = 200 N

(a). We need to calculate the resultant of these forces

Using cosine law

F=\sqrt{F_{1}^2+F_{2}^2+2F_{1}F_{2}\cos\theta}

Put the value into the formula

F=\sqrt{1200^2+200^2+2\times1200\times200\cos90}

F=\sqrt{1200^2+200^2}

F= 1216.55\ N

The resultant of these forces is 1216.55 N.

(b). We need to calculate the direction of the resultant forces

Using formula of direction

\tan\alpha=\dfrac{F_{1}}{F_{2}}

Put the value into the formula

\alpha=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{1200}{200})

\alpha=80.53^{\circ}

Hence, (a). The resultant of these forces is 1216.55 N.

(b).  The direction of the resultant forces is 80.53°.

How many neutrons does an element have of its atomic number is 50 and its mass number is 156?
pshichka [43]

Ok so I think you would first subtract


156 - 50 = 106


Since atomic number is based on the number of protons, you should subtract the 50 from 156


106 should be your answer


Hope this helps!
