In a simple electric circuit, a 110-volt electric heater

Physics
1 answer:
Readme [11.4K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: 55 ohms

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of heater (v) = 110-volt

Current drawn by heater (I) = 2.0 amperes

resistance of the heater (r) = ?

Since voltage, current and resistance are involved, apply the formula for ohms law.

Voltage = current x resistance

i.e v = ir

where r = v / i

r = 110 volts / 2.0 A

r = 55 ohms

Thus, the resistance of the heater is 55 ohms

A car approaches you at a constant speed, sounding its horn, and you hear a frequency of 76 Hz. After the car goes by, you hear
Talja [164]

Answer:

70.07 Hz

Explanation:

Since the sound is moving away from the observer then

f_o = f_s\frac {(v+vs)}{v} and f_o = f_s\frac {(v-vs)}{v} when moving towards observer

With f_o of 76 then taking speed in air as 343 m/s we have

76 = f_s\times\frac {(343-vs)}{343}

f_s=\frac {343\times 76}{343-v_s}

Similarly, with f_o of 65 we have

65 = f_s\times\frac {(343+vs)}{343}\\f_s=\frac {343\times 65}{343+v_s}

Now

f_s=\frac {343\times 65}{343+v_s}=\frac {343\times 76}{343-v_s}

v_s=27.76 m/s

Substituting the above into  any of the first two equations then we obtain

f_s=70.07 Hz

Which features on mars point to the possibility of liquid water on the planet?
Stells [14]
     In 2011 NASA researchers identified features on Mars known as Recuring Slope Lineae ( or RSL ). RSL are relatively dark and narrow features.They are thought to be a signs of salty liquid water on Mars. One hypothesis for RSL formation is that they form when underground bodies of salty water leak into the surface.
   Answer: Recuring Slope Lineae.

A package is dropped from an air balloon two times. In the first trial the distance between the balloon and the surface is Hand
enyata [817]

Answer:

<em>The final speed of the second package is twice as much as the final speed of the first package.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Free Fall Motion</u>

If an object is dropped in the air, it starts a vertical movement with an acceleration equal to g=9.8 m/s^2. The speed of the object after a time t is:

v=gt

And the distance traveled downwards is:

\displaystyle y=\frac{gt^2}{2}

If we know the height at which the object was dropped, we can calculate the time it takes to reach the ground by solving the last equation for t:

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2y}{g}}

Replacing into the first equation:

\displaystyle v=g\sqrt{\frac{2y}{g}}

Rationalizing:

\displaystyle v=\sqrt{2gy}

Let's call v1 the final speed of the package dropped from a height H. Thus:

\displaystyle v_1=\sqrt{2gH}

Let v2 be the final speed of the package dropped from a height 4H. Thus:

\displaystyle v_2=\sqrt{2g(4H)}

Taking out the square root of 4:

\displaystyle v_2=2\sqrt{2gH}

Dividing v2/v1 we can compare the final speeds:

\displaystyle v_2/v_1=\frac{2\sqrt{2gH}}{\sqrt{2gH}}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle v_2/v_1=2

The final speed of the second package is twice as much as the final speed of the first package.
