A milliammeter has an internal resistance of 5ohms and

Physics
1 answer:
Vikentia [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Rs = 0.02008 Ω = 20.08 mΩ

Explanation:

The range of an ammeter can be increased by connecting a small shunt resistance to it in a series combination. This shunt resistance can be calculated by the following formula:

Rs = \frac{I_gR_g}{I - I_g}

where,

R_s = value of shunt resistance = ?

I_g = current range of ammeter = 20 mA = 0.02 A

I = Required range of ammeter = 5 A

R_g = Resistance of ammeter = 5 ohms

Therefore,

R_s = \frac{(0.02\ A)(5\ ohms)}{5\ A-0.02\ A}

<u>Rs = 0.02008 Ω = 20.08 mΩ</u>

Two vehicles approach an intersection: a truck moving eastbound at 16.0 m/s and an SUV moving southbound at 20.0 m/s. Suppose th
mario62 [17]

Answer:25.61 m/s

Explanation:

Given

truck is moving eastbound with a velocity of 16 m/s

Velocity of truck v_t=16\hat{i}

SUV is moving south with a velocity of 20 m/s

Velocity of SUV in vector form v_s=-20\hat{j}

Velocity of truck relative to the SUV

v_{ts}=v_{t}-v_s

v_{ts}=16\hat{i}-(-20\hat{j})

Magnitude of relative velocity is

|v_{ts}|=\sqrt{16^2+20^2}

|v_{ts}|=25.61\ m/s

Air conditioners sold in the United States are given a seasonal energy-efficiency ratio (SEER) rating that consumers can use to
amid [387]

Answer:

112.58

Explanation:

The Coefficient of Performance of any system is denoted by COP=Q/W, where Q is the useful heat supplied or removed and W is the work required by the system. According to the first law of thermoddynamics Qh= Qc + W, where Qh is the heat transfered to the hot reservoir and Qc is the heat collected from the cold reservoir. Substituting the values for W and apllying the limitation for maximum theoretical efficiency we end up with the eqution shown below.

The Coefficient of Performance of air conditioner or COP is denoted by

COP(cool) = Tc/(Th- Tc)

where Tc: the lowest temperature

           Th: the highest temperature

converting the values to Kelvin and adding them in the above equation

COP(cool) = (25+273)/((34+273)-(25+273))

                 = 298/(307-298)

                 = 298/9 = 33.11

From the question, it is stated that COP=SEER/3.4

hence, SEER= COP * 3.4

SEER= 33.11 * 3.4 = 112.58

A 20N net force acts upon an object with a mass of 4. 0kg. What is the object's acceleration?
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

5ms^-2

Explanation:

F = 20N, m = 4.0kg, a = ?

Using the formula for Force

F = ma

Then making acceleration the subject of the formula

a = F/m

a = 20N/4.0kg

a = 5ms^-2

Most of the mass of the Milky Way exists in the form of:<br> a.) starsb.) gasc.) dustd.) dark matter
Sveta_85 [38]
<h2>Answer: dark matter</h2>

It is believed that the Milky Way has 90% dark matter and only 10% ordinary matter (known matter). Because, like gravity, <u>dark matter can not be observed directly</u>, however its existence is inferred through the movement of the stars and the cosmic dust within the galaxy.

It is important to note that dark matter composition is unknown and corresponds to 80% of the matter in the universe. It does not emit or interact with any type of electromagnetic radiation, but it interacts with the known matter through gravity.
