When a light bulb is connected to a 4.5 V battery, a current of 0.16 A passes through the bulb filament. What is the resistance

of the filament
Physics

Answer:

R = 28.125 ohms

Explanation:

Given that,

The voltage of a bulb, V = 4.5 V

Current, I = 0.16 A

We need to find the resistance of the filament. Using Ohm's law,

V = IR

Where

R is the resistance of the filament

So,

R=\dfrac{V}{I}\\\\R=\dfrac{4.5}{0.16}\\\\R=28.125\ \Omega

So, the resistance of the filament is equal to 28.125 ohms.

A long copper rod of diameter 2.0 cm is initially at a uniform temperature of 100°C. It is now exposed to an air stream at 20°C
Lisa [10]

Answer:

t = 4.0 min

Explanation:

given data:

diameter of rod = 2 cm

T_1 = 100 degree celcius

Air stream temperature =  20 degree celcius

heat transfer coefficient = 200 W/m2. K

WE KNOW THAT

copper thermal conductivity = k = 401 W/m °C

copper specific heat Cp = 385 J/kg.°C

density of copper = 8933 kg/m3

charateristic length is given as Lc

Lc = \frac{V}{A_s}

Lc = \frac{\frac{\pi D^2}{4} L}{\pi DL}

Lc = \frac{D}{4}

Lc = \frac{0.02}{6} = 0.005 m

Biot number is given as Bi = \frac{hLc}{k}

Bi = \frac{200*0.005}{401}

Bi = 0.0025

As Bi is greater than 0.1 therefore lumped system analysis is applicable

so we have

\frac{T(t) - T_∞}{Ti - T_∞} = e^{-bt} ............1

where b is given as

b = \frac{ hA}{\rho Cp V}

b = \frac{ h}{\rho Cp Lc}

b = \frac{200}{8933*385*0.005}

b = 0.01163 s^{-1}

putting value in equation 1

\frac{25-20}{100-20} = e^{-0.01163t}

solving for t we get

t = 4.0 min

What magnification would be obtained if an eyepiece with a focal length of 0.38 m was placed on telescope?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete because the telescope's focal length was not provided. The formula to be used here is

Magnification = telescope's focal length/eyepiece's focal length

The eyepiece's focal length was provided in the question as 0.38 m.

NOTE: Magnification can be described as the power of an instrument (in this case telescope) to enlarge an object. It has no unit and thus the two focal lengths mentioned in the formula above must be in the same unit (preferably meters since one of them is in meters already).

Pascal has 96 miles remaining to complete his cycling trip. If he reduced his current speed by 4 miles per hour, the remainder o
Verdich [7]

Answer:

V = 20 miles /sec

Explanation:

We have remaining distance   =  d  = 96 miles

Lets call  Pascal velocity  V in miles per hour

Now if he increases his velocity by  50 % (equivalent to multiply by 1.5 ) he will need a time t₁ to arrive then as V = d/t

1.5* V  = d/ t₁      ⇒   1.5 * V  =  96 /t₁

And in the case of reducing his velocity

(V / 4) = d/ (t₁ + 16 )     ⇒  V * (t₁ + 16 ) = 4*d     ⇒ V*t₁ + 16*V = 384

So we a 2 equation system with two uknown variables

1.5*V = 96/t₁      (1)

V*t₁  + 16*V = 384     (2)

We solve  from equation    (1)      t₁  = 64/V

And by substitution   in equation (2)

V * (64/V) + 16* V = 384

64  + 16 *V  = 384         ⇒   16*V = 320      ⇒  V= 320/16

V = 20 miles /sec
