Answer:

Part A

The power to turn on the lamp, ∑P = 3.36 W

Part B

The Resistor required is approximately 8.04 Ohms

Part C

The time for all the lights to go out is approximately 21.43 hours

Explanation:

The input voltage of the motor battery , V = 12 V

The capacity of the battery, Q = 6 Ah

The number of lamps in parallel = 8 lamps

The maximum voltage of each lamp, = 3 V

The electric current in each lamp = 140 mA

The energy available in a battery, E = Q × V

For the battery, we have;

E = 6 Ah × 12 V = 72 Wh

The energy available in a battery, E = 72 Wh

Part A

The power used by the lamps, $P_i$ = $I_i$ × $V_i$

∴ The total power used by the lamp, ∑P = 8 × 0.14 A × 3 V = 3.36 W

The power to turn on the lamp, ∑P = 3.36 W

Part B

The resistance required, is given as follows;

Resistor required = (Battery voltage - Lamp voltage)/(The sum of bulb current)

∴ Resistor required = (12 V - 3 V)/(8 × 0.14 A)

The Resistor required = 8.03571429 Ohms

The Resistor required ≈ 8.04 Ohms

Part C

The time for all the lights to go out = The time for the lamps to use all the power available in the battery

The time for all the lights to go out, t = E/∑P

∴ t = 72 Wh/(3.36 W) = 21.4285714 h

∴ The time for all the lights to go out, t ≈ 21.43 h

The time for all the lights to go out = The time for the lamps to use all the power available in the battery = t ≈ 21.43 h

∴ The time for all the lights to go out ≈ 21.43 hours.

A force is applied to an ideal spring (initially in its equilibrium position) and does 1.9 JJ of work stretching it 2.2 cmcm . H

Verdich [7]

Answer:

W=16.58J

Explanation:

initial information we have

work: $W=1.9J$

stretched distance: $x=2.2cm=0.022m$

from this, we can find the value of the constant of the spring k, with the equation for work in a spring:

$W=\frac{1}{2} kx^2$

substituting known values:

$1.9J=\frac{1}{2}k(0.022)^2\\$

and clearing for k:

$k=\frac{2(1.9J)}{0.022^2} \\k=7,851.24$

and now we want to know how much work is done when we stretch the spring a distance of 6.5cm from equilibrium, so now x is:

$x=6.5cm=0.065m$

and using the same formula for work, with the value of k that we just found:

$W=\frac{1}{2} kx^2$

$W=\frac{1}{2}(7851.24)(0.065)^2\\W=16.58J$

De manera individual subraya la respuesta correcta: A) El Método Científico de la física experimental y su búsqueda de respuesta

alexira [117]

Answer:

a. La ciencia.

Explicación:

El método científico de la física experimental y su búsqueda de respuestas tiene un principio básico que es la ciencia. La ciencia es la aplicación del conocimiento del mundo natural y social siguiendo una metodología sistemática basada en evidencias. Sin evidencias no hay aceptación de la observación ni se debe hacer teoría porque la evidencia es el principal criterio para aceptar o rechazar una hipótesis.

A rock is attached to the left end of a uniform meter stick that has the same mass as the rock. How far from the left end of the

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

M₂ = M then L₂ = L

M₂> M then L₂ = \frac{M}{M_{2}} L

Explanation:

This is a static equilibrium exercise, to solve it we must fix a reference system at the turning point, generally in the center of the rod. By convention counterclockwise turns are considered positive

∑ τ = 0

The mass of the rock is M and placed at a distance, L the mass of the rod M₁, is considered to be placed in its center of mass, which by uniform e is in its geometric center (x = 0) and the triangular mass M₂, with a distance L₂

The triangular shape of the second object determines that its mass can be considered concentrated in its geometric center (median) that tapers with a vertical line if the triangle is equilateral, the most used shape in measurements.

M L + M₁ 0 - m₂ L₂ = 0

M L - m₂ L₂ = 0

L₂ = $\frac{M}{M_{2}}$ L

From this answer we have several possibilities

* if the two masses are equal then L₂ = L

* If the masses are different, with M₂> M then L₂ = \frac{M}{M_{2}} L

The wavelength of violet light is about 425 nm (1 nanometer = 1 × 10−9 m). what are the frequency and period of the light waves?

BigorU [14]

1. Frequency: $7.06\cdot 10^{14} Hz$

The frequency of a light wave is given by:

$f=\frac{c}{\lambda}$

where

$c=3\cdot 10^{-8} m/s$ is the speed of light

$\lambda$ is the wavelength of the wave

In this problem, we have light with wavelength

$\lambda=425 nm=425\cdot 10^{-9} m$

Substituting into the equation, we find the frequency:

$f=\frac{c}{\lambda}=\frac{3\cdot 10^{-8} m/s}{425\cdot 10^{-9} m}=7.06\cdot 10^{14} Hz$

2. Period: $1.42 \cdot 10^{-15}s$

The period of a wave is equal to the reciprocal of the frequency:

$T=\frac{1}{f}$

The frequency of this light wave is $7.06\cdot 10^{14} Hz$ (found in the previous exercise), so the period is:

$T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{7.06\cdot 10^{14} Hz}=1.42\cdot 10^{-15} s$
