Answer:

0.5 A

Explanation:

Applying,

V = IR.................. Equation 1

Where V = Voltage, I = current, R = Resistance.

make I the subject of the equation

I = V/R............... Equation 2

From the question,

Given: V = 75 V, R = 150 Ω

Substitute these values into equation 2

I = 75/150

I = 0.5 A.

Hence the cuurent through the resistor is 0.5 A

The goalkeeper at his goal cannot kick a soccer ball into the opponent’s goal without the ball touching the ground

Explanation:

Consider the vertical motion of ball,

We have equation of motion v = u + at

Initial velocity, u = u sin θ

Final velocity, v = 0 m/s

Acceleration = -g

Substituting

v = u + at

0 = u sin θ - g t

$t=\frac{usin\theta }{g}$

This is the time of flight.

Consider the horizontal motion of ball,

Initial velocity, u = u cos θ

Acceleration, a =0 m/s²

Time, $t=\frac{usin\theta }{g}$

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

$s=ucos\theta \times \frac{usin\theta }{g}+0.5\times 0\times (\frac{usin\theta }{g})^2\\\\s=\frac{u^2sin\theta cos\theta}{g}\\\\s=\frac{u^2sin2\theta}{2g}$

This is the range.

In this problem

u = 30 m/s

g = 9.81 m/s²

θ = 45° - For maximum range

Substituting

$s=\frac{30^2\times sin(2\times 45)}{2\times 9.81}=45.87m$

Maximum horizontal distance traveled by ball without touching ground is 45.87 m, which is less than 95 m.

So the goalkeeper at his goal cannot kick a soccer ball into the opponent’s goal without the ball touching the ground

A piston–cylinder assembly contains 5.0 kg of air, initially at 2.0 bar, 30 oC. The air undergoes a process to a state where th

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

Explanation:

The process is isothermic, as P V = constant .

work done = 2.303 n RT log P₁ / P₂

= 2.303 x 5 / 29 x 8.3 x 303 log 2 / 1 kJ

= 300.5k J

This energy in work done by the gas will come fro heat supplied as internal energy is constant due to constant temperature.

heat supplied = 300.5k J

specific volume is volume per unit mass

v / m

pv = n RT

pv = m / M RT

v / m = RT / p M

specific volume = RT / p M

option B is correct.

love history [14]

The question is incomplete. Here is the entire question.

A jetboat is drifting with a speed of 5.0m/s when the driver turns on the motor. The motor runs for 6.0s causing a constant leftward acceleration of magnitude 4.0m/s². What is the displacement of the boat over the 6.0 seconds time interval?

Answer: Δx = - 42m

Explanation: The jetboat is moving with an acceleration during the time interval, so it is a linear motion with constant acceleration.

For this "type" of motion, displacement (Δx) can be determined by:

$\Delta x = v_{i}.t + \frac{a}{2}.t^{2}$
