Answer:

35.6 N

Explanation:

We can consider only the forces acting along the horizontal direction to solve the problem.

There are two forces acting along the horizontal direction:

- The horizontal component of the pushing force, which is given by

F_x = F cos \theta

with \theta=41.9^{\circ}

- The frictional force, whose magnitude is

F_f = \mu mg

where \mu=0.33, m=8.2 kg and g=9.8 m/s^2.

The two forces have opposite directions (because the frictional force is always opposite to the motion), and their resultant must be zero, because the suitcase is moving with constant velocity (which means acceleration equals zero, so according to Newton's second law: F=ma, the net force is zero). So we can write:

F_x - F_f=0\\F_x = F_f\\F cos \theta = \mu mg\\F=\frac{\mu mg}{cos \theta}=\frac{(0.33)(8.2 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)}{cos(41.9^{\circ})}=35.6 N

Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of: a) A person running across the room (assume 180 kg at 1 m/s) b) A 5.0 MeV proton
solmaris [256]

Answer:

a

\lambda = 3.68 *10^{-36} \  m

b

\lambda_p = 1.28*10^{-14} \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the person is  m =  180 \  kg

    The speed of the person is  v  =  1 \  m/s

    The energy of the proton is  E_ p =  5 MeV = 5 *10^{6} eV  = 5.0 *10^6 * 1.60 *10^{-19} = 8.0 *10^{-13} \  J

Generally the de Broglie wavelength is mathematically represented as

      \lambda = \frac{h}{m * v }

Here  h is the Planck constant with the value

      h = 6.62607015 * 10^{-34} J \cdot s

So  

     \lambda = \frac{6.62607015 * 10^{-34}}{ 180  * 1  }

=> \lambda = 3.68 *10^{-36} \  m

Generally the energy of the proton is mathematically represented as

         E_p =  \frac{1}{2}  *   m_p  *  v^2_p

Here m_p  is the mass of proton with value  m_p  =  1.67 *10^{-27} \  kg

=>     8.0*10^{-13} =  \frac{1}{2}  *   1.67 *10^{-27}  *  v^2

=>   v _p= \sqrt{\frac{8.0 *10^{-13}}{ 0.5 * 1.67 *10^{-27}} }

=>   v = 3.09529 *10^{7} \  m/s

So

        \lambda_p = \frac{h}{m_p * v_p }

so    \lambda_p = \frac{6.62607015 * 10^{-34}}{1.67 *10^{-27} * 3.09529 *10^{7} }

=>     \lambda_p = 1.28*10^{-14} \ m

The current through a 10 ohm resistor connected to a 120 volt power supply is
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:I=12 A

Explanation:

Given

Resistance R=10 \Omega

Voltage V=120 V

According to ohm's law current through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage applied.

V\propto I

V=IR

where V=Voltage

I=Current

R=resistance

I=\frac{V}{R}

I=\frac{120}{10}

I=12 A

BRAINLIEST AND MAY DOUBLE POINTS!!!
raketka [301]

Given that:

 Energy of bulb  (Work ) = 30 J,

 Time (t) = 3 sec

The power consumption =  ?

 We know that, Power can be defined as rate of doing work

              Power (P) = Work(Energy supplied) ÷ time

                               = 30 ÷ 3

                              = 10 Watts

<em> The power consumption is 10 W.</em>
