Answer:

The potential difference between the ends of a wire is 60 volts.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Resistance, R = 5 ohms

Charge, q = 720 C

Time, t = 1 min = 60 s

We know that the charge flowing per unit charge is called current in the circuit. It is given by :

I = 12 A

Let V is the potential difference between the ends of a wire. It can be calculated using Ohm's law as :

V = IR

V = 60 Volts

So, the potential difference between the ends of a wire is 60 volts. Hence, this is the required solution.

A wheel of radius 0.23 m, which is moving initially at 25.0 m/s, rolls to a stop in 246.0 m. The wheel's rotational inertia is 0

Digiron [165]

Answer: -1.27 m/s^2

Explanation:

a = - V^2 / 2x

a = -(25^2) / 2 x (246) = 1.27 m/ s^2

Therefore the linear acceleration of the wheel is - 1.27 m/s^2

An unstable particle at rest spontaneously breaks into two fragments of unequal mass. The mass of the first fragment is 3.00 10-

kirill [66]

Answer:0.478 c

Explanation:

Given

mass of lighter Particle $(m_1)=3\times 10^{-28} kg$

mass of heavier Particle $(m_2)=1.51\times 10^{-27} kg$

speed of lighter particle $(v_1)=0.834 c$

Let speed of heavier particle $=v_2$

and Momentum of the particle is given by

$P=\frac{mv}{\sqrt{1-(\frac{v}{c})^2}}$

$P_1=\frac{m_1v_1}{\sqrt{1-(\frac{v_1}{c})^2}}$

$P_1=\frac{3\times 10^{-28}\times 0.834 c}{\sqrt{1-(\frac{0.834 c}{c})^2}}$

$P_1=8.219\times 10^{-28} kg c$

$P_2=\frac{m_2v_2}{\sqrt{1-(\frac{v_2}{c})^2}}$

as momentum is conserved therefore $P_1=P_2$

$8.219\times 10^{-28} kg c=\frac{1.51\times 10^{-27}\times v_2}{\sqrt{1-(\frac{v_2}{c})^2}}$

$v_2=0.478 c$

If a wave has a frequency of 2 HZ what would it be in seconds?

gavmur [86]

Frequency is not a length of time. It's exactly the opposite.
Frequency tells you how often something happens. In fact,
the unit 'Hz' means 'per second'.

Frequency of 2 Hz means "It happens at 2 per second."

The time it takes for the thing to happen once is exactly the
'reciprocal' of the frequency ... ' 1 ' divided by the frequency.

If the frequency is 2 Hz, then the thing happens every 1/2 second.

If the frequency is 74 Hz, then it happens every 1/74 of a second.

If the frequency is 1 KiloHz, then it happens every 1/1000 second.
