A current of 0.2A flows through a component with a resistance of 40ohms calculate the potential difference

Physics
1 answer:
erastova [34]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

8V

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Current = 0.2A

Resistance  = 40ohms

Unknown:

Potential difference = ?

Solution:

Potential difference is force that drives current in an electric circuit.

According to Ohms law, it is given as;

   V = IR

V is the potential difference

I is the current

R is the resistance

 Now, insert the parameters and solve;

    V = 0.2 x 40  = 8V

allsm [11]

Answer:

v = 2.94 m/s

Explanation:

When the spring is compressed, its potential energy is equal to (1/2)kx^2, where k is the spring constant and x is the distance compressed. At this point there is no kinetic energy due to there being no movement, meaning the net energy in the system is (1/2)kx^2.

Once the spring leaves the system, it will be moving at a constant velocity v, if friction is ignored. At this time, its kinetic energy will be (1/2)mv^2. It won't have any spring potential energy, making the net energy (1/2)mv^2.

Because of the conservation of energy, these two values can be set equal to each other, since energy will not be gained or lost while the spring is decompressing. That means

(1/2)kx^2 = (1/2)mv^2

kx^2 = mv^2

v^2 = (kx^2)/m

v = sqrt((kx^2)/m)

v = x * sqrt(k/m)

v = 0.122 * sqrt(125/0.215)        <--- units converted to m and kg

v = 2.94 m/s

A quarterback throws a football toward a receiver with an initial speed of 20 m/s at an angle of 30∘ above the horizontal. At th
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

a) In order to catch the ball at the level at which it is thrown in the direction of motion.

b)Speed of the receiver will be 7.52m/s

Explanation:

Calculating range,R= Vo^2Sin2theta/g

R= (20^2×Sin(2×30)/9.8 = 35.35m

Let receiver be(R-20) = 35.35-20= 15.35m

The horizontal component of the ball is:

Vox= Vocostheta= 20× cos30°

Vox= 17.32m/s

Time taken to coverR=35.35m with 17.32m/s will be:

t=R/Vox= 35.35/17.32

t= 2.04seconds

b)Speed required to cover 15.35m at 2.04seconds

Vxreciever= d/t = 15.35/2.04 = 7.52m/s

Tom [10]

This question is a very good one indeed! I am very happy you asked it. I would first like to say that, although energy is important, our planet is more so. That is why I feel like we should always try to explore ideas that are both useful to the human race but also useful in protecting our environment because what is the use in having energy if we will not be able to use it. That is why I feel that we should try at types of energy like solar and wind. The problem is finding ways that are less expensive and more efficient. For example, creating a wind energy system that creates a sizeable about of energy and also is not too expensive and hard to make like the wind turbines of nowadays. Also what comes into question is the effect of these ideas and I feel that although some of these may have harmful effects, they must be used. One thing though is that I do not agree in expanding on our oil and gas exploration because it has so many bad effects to our environment that it is hardly worth it. If we can find alternatives in these other sources, like many states in the USA are trying to do, then we will be able to move much faster in technology and also help protect our lovely planet.
