Answer: current I = 0.96 Ampere

Explanation:

Given that the

Resistance R = 60 Ω 

Power = 55 W

Power is the product of current and voltage. That is

P = IV ...... (1)

But voltage V = IR. From ohms law.

Substitutes V in equation (1) power is now

P = I^2R

Substitute the above parameters into the formula to get current I

55 = 60 × I^2

Make I^2 the subject of formula

I^2 = 55/60

I^2 = 0.92

I = sqr(0.92)

I = 0.957 A

Therefore, 0.96 A current must be applied.

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

a= 92. 13 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that

Amplitude ,A= 0.165 m

The maximum speed ,V(max) = 3.9 m/s

We know that maximum velocity in the SHM  given as

V(max)  = ω A

ω=Angular speed

A=Amplitude

\omega =\dfrac{3.9}{0.165}\ rad/s

ω=23.63 rad/s

The maximum acceleration given as

a = ω² A

a= (23.63)² x 0.165 m/s²

a= 92. 13 m/s²

Therefore the maximum magnitude of the acceleration will be 92. 13 m/s².

A typical atomic polarizability is 1 × 10-40 (C·m)/(N/C). If the q in p = qs is equal to the proton charge e, what charge separa
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

s = 6.25 10⁻²² m

Explanation:

Polarizability is the separation of electric charges in a structure, in the case of the atom it is the result of the separation of positive charges in the nucleus and the electrons in their orbits, macroscopically it is approximated by

                p = q s

               s = p / q

let's calculate

              s = 1 10⁻⁴⁰ / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹

              s = 0.625 10⁻²¹ m

              s = 6.25 10⁻²² m

We see that the result is much smaller than the size of the atom, therefore this simplistic model cannot be taken to an atomic scale.

An explorer is caught in a whiteout (in which the snowfall is so thick that the ground cannot be distinguished from the sky) whi
alexdok [17]

Actual displacement that he required to move

d_1 = 5.4 km towards North

Displacement that he moved due to snow is

d_2 = 8.1 km at 47 degree North of East

now in vector component form we can say

d_1 = 5.4 \hat j

d_2 = 8.1 cos47 \hat i + 8.1 sin47 \hat j

d_2 = 5.52 \hat i + 5.92 \hat j

now the displacement that is more required to reach the destination is given as

d = d_1 - d_2

d = 5.4\hat j - (5.52 \hat i + 5.92\hat j)

d = -5.52 \hat i - 0.52 \hat j

so the magnitude of the displacement is given as

d = \sqrt{5.52^2 + 0.52^2}

d = 5.54 km

its direction is given as

\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{0.52}{5.52} = 5.38 degree

so it is 5.54 km towards 5.38 degree North of West.
