The buoyant force on any object acts in the direction opposite to the force of gravity. <em>(A)</em>
Answer:
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem we need to make a free body diagram of the book and the forces that interact on it. In the picture below you can see the free body diagram with these forces.
The person holding the book is compressing it with his hands, thus exerting a couple of forces of equal magnitude and opposite direction with value F.
Now the key to solving this problem is to analyze the equilibrium condition (Newton's third law) on the x & y axes.
To find the weight of the book we simply multiply the mass of the book by gravity.
W = m*g
W = 1.3[kg] * 9.81[m/s^2]
W = 12.75 [N]
I'm actually going ahead in the book (DC Circuits) so this isn't really homework but I figured the tag was appropriate....the name of the chapter is Ohm's Law and Watt's Law.
<span>Problem: Calculate the power dissipated in the load resistor, R, for each of the circuits.Circuit (a): V = 10V; I = 100mA; R = ?; Since I know
V and
I use formula
P = IV: P = IV = (100mA)(10V) = 1 W.</span>
The next question is what I'm not sure about:
Question: What is the power in the circuit (a) above if the voltage is doubled? (Hint: Consider the effect on current).
What I did initially was: P = IV = (100mA)(2V) = 2 W
But then I looked at the answer and it said 4 W, then I looked at the Hint again. Then I remembered in the book early on it said "If the voltage increases across a resistor, current will increase."
So question is: When solving problems I have to increase (or decrease) current (I) every time voltage (V) is increased (decreased) in a problem, right? How about the other way around, when increasing current (I), you need to increase voltage (V). I'm pretty sure that's how they got 4 W, but want to make sure before I head to the next section of the book.
P = IV = (200mA)(2V) = 4 W
Answer:
Three types of thermal expansion are linear expansion,s superficial expansion,cubical expansion
Answer:
<em>B) The disturbance of particles in an area.</em>
Explanation:
<em>A wave involves transmission of energy from one place to another by the actual disturbance of the particles of the medium.</em>
