How much power is required to light a lightbulb at 100V of voltage when the lightbulb has a resistance of 500 Ohms?

Physics
1 answer:
salantis [7]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Power = 20 Watts

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Voltage = 100 V

Resistance = 500 Ohms

To find the power that is required to light a lightbulb;

Mathematically, power can be calculated using the formula;

Power = \frac {Voltage^{2}}{resistance}

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Power = \frac {100^{2}}{500}

Power = \frac {10000}{500}

Power = 20 Watts

As the distance between 2 objects increases, what happens to gravitational force?
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

the force decreases

Explanation:

Gravitational force is depending on it's mass and the distance between two object

The attachment shows us to understand relationship of it's

F ∝ 1/ (r)2

there for gravitational force is inversely proportional to it's distance . when distance between two object is increased, Then force will be decreased

The product of 2 x 104 cm and 4 x 10–12 cm, expressed in scientific notation is ____.
sdas [7]
Answer:    8 * 10⁻⁸  cm²  .
______________________________________________________
Explanation:
______________________________________________

(2 * 10⁴ cm) * (4 * 10⁻¹² cm)  =

2 *4 * 10⁴ * 10⁻¹² = 8 * 10⁽⁴⁺⁽⁻¹²⁾⁾ =  8 * 10⁻⁸  cm² .
_________________________________________

Note the follow property of exponents:
_____________________________________________________
 
xᵃ * xᵇ = x⁽ᵃ ⁺ ᵇ⁾  ;  as such:  " 10⁴ * 10⁻¹² = 10⁽⁴⁺⁽⁻¹²⁾⁾ = 10⁻⁸ " .

A satellite that weighs 4900 N on the launchpad travels around the earth's equator in a circular orbit with a period of 1.667 h.
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

(a)F= 3.83 * 10^3 N

(b)Altitude=8.20 * 10^5 m

Explanation:

On the launchpad weight = gravitational force between earth and satellite.

W = GMm/R²

where R is the earth radius.

Re-arranging:

WR² / GM = m

m = 4900 * (6.3 * 10^6)² / (6.67 * 10^-11 * 5.97 * 10^24) = 488 kg

The centripetal force (Fc) needed to keep the satellite moving in a circular orbit of radius (r) is:

Fc = mω²r

where ω is the angular velocity in radians/second. The satellite completes 1 revolution, which is 2π radians, in 1.667 hours.

ω = 2π / (1.667 * 60 * 60) = 1.05 * 10^-3 rad/s

When the satellite is in orbit at a distance (r) from the CENTRE of the earth, Fc is provided by the gravitational force  between the earth and the satellite:

Fc = GMm/r²

mω²r = GMm / r²

ω²r = GM / r²

r³ = GM/ω² = (6.67 * 10^-11 * 5.97 * 10^24) / (1.05 * 10^-3)²  

r³ = 3.612 * 10^20

r = 7.12 * 10^6 m

(a) F = GMm/r²  

F=(6.67 * 10^-11 * 5.97 * 10^24 * 488) / (7.12 * 10^6 )²

F= 3.83 * 10^3 N

(b) Altitude = r - R = (7.12 * 10^6) - (6.3 * 10^6) = 8.20 * 10^5 m
