Answer:

We can also prove the conservation of mechanical energy of a freely falling body by the work-energy theorem, which states that change in kinetic energy of a body is equal to work done on it. i.e. W=ΔK. And ΔE=ΔK+ΔU. Hence the mechanical energy of the body is conserved

A light bulb dissipates 100 Watts of power when it is supplied a voltage of 220 volts.

ycow [4]

Given Information:

Power = P = 100 Watts

Voltage = V = 220 Volts

Required Information:

a) Current = I = ?

b) Resistance = R = ?

Answer:

a) Current = I = 0.4545 A

b) Resistance = R = 484 Ω

Explanation:

According to the Ohm’s law, the power dissipated in the light bulb is given by

$P = VI$

Where V is the voltage across the light bulb, I is the current flowing through the light bulb and P is the power dissipated in the light bulb.

Re-arranging the above equation for current I yields,

$I = \frac{P}{V} \\\\I = \frac{100}{220} \\\\I = 0.4545 \: A \\\\$

Therefore, 0.4545 A current is flowing through the light bulb.

According to the Ohm’s law, the voltage across the light bulb is given by

$V = IR$

Where V is the voltage across the light bulb, I is the current flowing through the light bulb and R is the resistance of the light bulb.

Re-arranging the above equation for resistance R yields,

$R = \frac{V}{I} \\\\R = \frac{220}{0.4545} \\\\R = 484 \: \Omega$

Therefore, the resistance of the bulb is 484 Ω

Newton's third law can be summarized as "every action has an equal and opposite reaction". In this problem, consider the action

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Action force: Would be the force of your feet against the Earth given by the weight defined as:

$W = mg$

Where g is a constat who represent the gravity $g =9.8 m/s^2$ in Earth

Reaction force: Would be the force of the Earth pushing against your feet. And on this case is represented by the normal force defined as:

$N = \mu f_f$

Where $\mu$ represent the friction coefficient between the ground and the object.

And $f_f$ the friction force.

If we don't have any other forces involved in the y axis we can conclude that:

$W=N= mg$

And as we can see we have that Action force = Reaction force

So then the third Law of Newton is satisfied.

Explanation:

For this case we have this:

Action force: Would be the force of your feet against the Earth given by the weight defined as:

$W = mg$

Where g is a constat who represent the gravity $g =9.8 m/s^2$ in Earth

Reaction force: Would be the force of the Earth pushing against your feet. And on this case is represented by the normal force defined as:

$N = \mu f_f$

Where $\mu$ represent the friction coefficient between the ground and the object.

And $f_f$ the friction force.

If we don't have any other forces involved in the y axis we can conclude that:

$W=N= mg$

And as we can see we have that Action force = Reaction force

So then the third Law of Newton is satisfied.

If the PLATE SEPARATION of an isolated charged parallel-plate capacitor is doubled: A. the electric field is doubled

mash [69]

Explanation:

The electric field of an isolated charged parallel-plate capacitor is given by :

$E=\dfrac{q}{A\epsilon_o}$ ........(1)

Where

q is the electric charge

A is the area of cross section of parallel plate

It is clear from equation (1) that the electric field of a parallel plate capacitor is directly proportional to the charge on the plate and inversely proportional to the area of cross section of a plate.

So, the correct option is (E) i.e. "none of the above".
