Answer:

1. Energy = 2880 Joules.

2. Energy = 60 Joules.

3. Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

1. Voltage = 12 Volts

Current = 0.5 Amps

Time, t = 8 mins to seconds = 8 * 60 = 480 seconds

To find the energy;

Power = current * voltage

Power = 12 * 0.5

Power = 6 Watts

Next, we find the energy transferred;

Energy = power * time

Energy = 6 * 480

Energy = 2880 Joules

2. Charge, Q = 4 coulombs

Potential difference, p.d = 15V

To find the total energy transferred;

Energy = Q * p.d

Energy = 4 * 15

Energy = 60 Joules

3. Voltage = 6 Volts

Current = 1 Amps

Time = 2 minutes to seconds = 2 * 60 = 120 seconds

To find the quantity of charge;

Quantity of charge = current * time

Quantity of charge = 1 * 120

Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs

What is the current when the voltage is 18 volts and the resistance is 6 ohms?

juin [17]

Voltage = current(I) * resistance (R)
V = 18
R = 6

18 = I * 6
I = 18/6 = 3 Amps or D

A concave mirror has a focal length of 13.5 cm. This mirror forms an image located 37.5 cm in front of the mirror. Find the magn

77julia77 [94]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Focal length of the concave mirror, f = -13.5 cm

Image distance, v = -37.5 cm (in front of mirror)

Let u is the object distance. It can be calculated using the mirror's formula as :

$\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}$

$\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{v}$

$\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{(-13.5)}-\dfrac{1}{(-37.5)}$

u = -21.09 cm

The magnification of the mirror is given by :

$m=\dfrac{-v}{u}$

$m=\dfrac{-(-37.5)}{(-21.09)}$

m = -1.77

So, the magnification produced by the mirror is (-1.77). Hence, this is the required solution.

A reaction in which x and y form products was found to be first order in x and zero order in y. by what factor will the rate of

Studentka2010 [4]

In zero order reactions the rate of reaction is independent of reactant concentrations. That is the rate of the reaction does not vary with increasing nor decreasing reactants concentrations. On the other hand, first order reaction are reactions in which the rate of reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reacting substance (reactants). In this case, i believe the rate of reaction will triple( increase by a factor of 3)

The second-order decomposition of hi has a rate constant of 1.80 x 10−3 m−1 s−1. How much hi remains after 45.6 s if the initial

zlopas [31]

Answer:

2.9 M

Explanation:

The concentration-time equation for a second order reaction is:

1/[A] = kt + 1/[A°]

Where,

A = concentration remaining at time, t

A° = initial concentration

k = rate constant

1/[A] = (1.80 x 10^-3) * (45.6) + 1/3.81

1/[A] = 0.345

= 1/0.345

= 2.9 M.
