Answer:

I = 0.2 A

Explanation:

Lamp is rated at 300 mA

I_lamp = 0.3 A

Voltage is; V = 3V

Thus; Resistance is given by;

R = V/I

R = 3/0.3

R = 10 ohms

Now, since the ammeter of 5 ohms is connected in series with the lamp. Thus equivalent resistance;

R_eq = 10 + 5

R_eq = 15 ohms

Ammeter current will be;

I = V/R_eq

I = 3/15

I = 0.2 A

The power of a lens is 4. 0 diopters and its diameter is 5. 0 cm. what is the focal length of this lens?
fenix001 [56]

The focal length of the lens is 25cm

given:

power,p=4 diopters

what is focal length?

Focal length is the distance between the point of convergence of your lens and the sensor or film recording the image.

what is diopter?

The unit of optical power of lens is called diopter.It is the optical power of the lens.

we know,

p=1/f

where,

p= power

f= focal length

f=1/p

f=1/4

=0.25m

=25cm

Thus,the focal length of the lens is 25cm

Why polarization does not occur in dry cell?​
Arisa [49]

Answer:

Manganese oxide prevents polarisation in dry cells. - Polarization is a defect that occurs in simple electric cells due to the accumulation of hydrogen gas around the positive electrode. ... - MnO2 reacts with H2 and forms water as byproduct, so depolarization doesn't occur.

How does the force affect the rocks during collisions? *
Jet001 [13]

In a collision, there is a force on both objects that causes an acceleration of both objects; the forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. For collisions between equal-mass objects, each object experiences the same acceleration.
