Answer:

98.37 ohms.

Explanation:

Power, P = I × V

Using ohms law,

V = I × R

P = V^2/R

Given:

V = 110 V

P = 123 W

R =110^2/123

= 98.37 ohms.

Answer:

81.3ohms

Explanation:

Resistance is known to provide opposition to the flow of electric current in an electric circuit.

Power dissipated by the computer is expressed as;

Power = current (I) × Voltage(V)

P = IV... (1)

Note that from ohms law, V = IR

I = V/R ... (2)

Substituting equation 2 into 1, we will have;

P = (V/R)×V

P = V²/R.. (3)

Given source voltage = 100V, Power dissipated = 123W

To get resistance R of the computer, we will substitute the given value into equation 3 to have

123 = 100²/R

R = 100²/123

R = 10,000/123

R = 81.3ohms

The resistance of the computer is 81.3ohms

A 21 g ball is shot from a spring gun whose spring has a force constant of 579 N/m. The spring can be compressed 1 cm. How high
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The answer  to the question is

The ball will go 0.14 meters high if the gun is aimed vertically

Explanation:

The energy in the spring → Energy, E = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

Where E = energy in the spring

k = Spring constant

x = Spring compression or stretch

Therefore E = \frac{1}{2} 579*0.01^2 = 0.02895 J

The spring energy is transferred  to the ball as kinetic energy based on the first law of thermodynamics which states that energy is neither created nor destroyed

Kinetic energy = KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

From which v = \sqrt{\frac{2*KE}{m} } = \sqrt{\frac{2*0.02895}{0.021} } = 1.66 m/s

from v² =u² - 2·a·S

Where v = final velocity = 0 m/s

u = initial velocity = 1.66 m/s

a = g = Acceleration due to gravity

S = height

Therefore 0 = 1.66² - 2×9.81×S

or S = 1.66² ÷ (2×9.81) = 0.14 m

Resonances of the ear canal lead to increased sensitivity of hearing, as we’ve seen. Dogs have a much longer ear canal—5.2 cm—th
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

B. 1700 Hz, 5100 Hz

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Length of ear canal = 5.2cm = 0.052 m

Speed of sound in warm air = 350 m/s

The ear canal is analogous to a tube that has one open end and one closed end. The frequency of standing wave modes in such a tube is given as:

f(m) = m * (v/4L)

Where m is an odd integer;

v = velocity

L = length of the tube

Hence, the two lowest frequencies at which a dog will have increased sensitivity are f(1) and f(3).

f(1) = 1 * [350/(4*0.052)]

f(1) = 1682.69 Hz

Approximately, f(1) = 1700 Hz

f(3) = 3 * [350/(4*0.052)]

f(3) = 5048 Hz

Approximately, f(3) = 5100 Hz

When stated as a percentage, the useful energy transferred by a device divided by the total energy supplied to the device is kno
Verdich [7]

Efficiency

Explanation:

Efficiency is a ratio/percentage that is useful in comparing the energy transferred by a device to the total energy supplied to it.

  Percentage efficiency = \frac{energy input}{total energy supplied} x 100

  • As with most system, none is 100% efficient.
  • During energy is transferred some are lost and only a little portion is used in doing actual work by the machine.
  • This validates the third law of thermodynamics which proposes that no system is 100% efficient.
  • A 100% efficiency implies total energy input is used doing all the work.
  • This is impossible. The bulk of the energy goes into heating the system.
