Answer:

4 volts

Explanation:

The diagram to the question is attached below.

Given that:

the battery voltage is = 12 volts

and the lights bulbs are identical; we can see that there are 3 light bulbs shown in the diagram below:

We can also see that the circuits are connected in series: if one light bulb happens to be removed from the circuit, the remaining light bulb will go out.

Thus; the voltage on each bulb since they are identical = V/3

= 12/3

= 4 volts

An ideal refrigerator does 240 J of work to remove 610 J as heat from its cold compartment. (a) What is the refrigerator's coeff
Anastaziya [24]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Work done, W = 240 J

Heat removed, Q = 610 J

(a) The refrigerator's coefficient of performance is given by :

COF=\dfrac{Q}{W}

COF=\dfrac{610}{240}

COF = 2.54

(b) Let Q' is the heat per cycle is exhausted to the kitchen. It is given by :

Q' = Q + W

Q' = 610 + 240

Q' = 850 J

Hence, this is the required solution.

A solenoid is built with 870 turns uniformly distributed over a length of 0.390 m to produce a magnetic field of magnitude 1.00
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

35.7 mA

Explanation:

The magnetic field inside a solenoid is given by:

B=\mu_0 I n (1)

where

\mu_0 = 4\pi \cdot 10^{-7} H/m is the vacuum permeability

I is the current

n is the number of turns per unit length

Since we have

N = 870 turns

L = 0.390 (length of the solenoid)

we can calculate n

n=\frac{N}{L}=\frac{870}{0.390}=2230.8

And now we can re-arrange eq.(1) to find the current, I:

I=\frac{B}{\mu_0 n}=\frac{1.00\cdot 10^{-4} T}{(4\pi\cdot 10^{-7} H/m)(2230.8m^{-1})}=0.0357 A = 35.7 mA

The sides of a square increase in length at a rate of 3 ​m/sec. a. At what rate is the area of the square changing when the side
maks197457 [2]

The area of a square is given by:

A = s²

A is the square's area

s is the length of one of the square's sides

Let us take the derivative of both sides of the equation with respect to time t in order to determine a formula for finding the rate of change of the square's area over time:

d[A]/dt = d[s²]/dt

The chain rule says to take the derivative of s² with respect to s then multiply the result by ds/dt

dA/dt = 2s(ds/dt)

A) Given values:

s = 14m

ds/dt = 3m/s

Plug in these values and solve for dA/dt:

dA/dt = 2(14)(3)

dA/dt = 84m²/s

B) Given values:

s = 25m

ds/dt = 3m/s

Plug in these values and solve for dA/dt:

dA/dt = 2(25)(3)

dA/dt = 150m²/s
