Answer:

Resistance in pencil sharpener = 12 ohms

Explanation:

Given:

Voltage in pencil sharpener = 6 volts

Current in pencil sharpener = 0.5 amps

Find:

Resistance in pencil sharpener

Computation:

Resistance = Voltage / Current

Resistance in pencil sharpener = Voltage in pencil sharpener / Current in pencil sharpener

Resistance in pencil sharpener = 6 / 0.5

Resistance in pencil sharpener = 12 ohms

What voltage would be measured across the 15 ohm resistor?
Alona [7]

Answer: That depends on what other components are in the same circuit

along with the 15-ohm resistor.

If there's nothing else, and the battery is connected across the 15-ohm

resistor, then when you measure the voltage across the 15-ohm resistor,

your voltmeter is also connected straight across the battery, and you read

10 volts.

INT Raindrops acquire an electric charge as they fall. Suppose a 2.0-mm-diameter drop has a charge of 12 pC; these are both very
horsena [70]

Answer:

W = 2.3 10² F_{e}

Explanation:

The force of the weight is

         W = m g

         

let's use the concept of density

         ρ= m / v

the volume of a sphere is

         V = \frac{4}{3} π r³

         V = \frac{4}{3} π (1.0 10⁻³)³

         V = 4.1887 10⁻⁹ m³

the density of water ρ = 1000 kg / m³

          m = ρ V

          m = 1000 4.1887 10⁻⁹

          m = 4.1887 10⁻⁶ kg

therefore the out of gravity is

          W = 4.1887 10⁻⁶ 9.8

          W = 41.05 10⁻⁶ N

now let's look for the electric force

           F_e = q E

           F_e = 12 10⁻¹² 15000

           F_e = 1.8 10⁻⁷ N

         

the relationship between these two quantities is

          \frac{W}{F_e} = 41.05 10⁻⁶ / 1.8 10⁻⁷

           \frac{W}{F_e} = 2,281 10²

             

             W = 2.3 10² F_{e}

therefore the weight of the drop is much greater than the electric force
