Answer:

No I won't.

It will carry 6ohm load.

Explanation:

It obeys ohms law therefore V=IR

120=20R

R=120/20

R= 6 ohms

Answer:

$f=6.97\times 10^{14}\ Hz$

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength, $\lambda=430\ nm=430\times 10^{-9}\ m$

We need to find the frequency of the violet light.

We know that the relation between frequency and wavelength is given by :

$f=\dfrac{c}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{430\times 10^{-9}}\\\\f=6.97\times 10^{14}\ Hz$

So, the frequency of violet light is $6.97\times 10^{14}\ Hz$ .

a flag of mass 2.5 kg is supported by a single rope. A strong horizontal wind exerts a force of 12 N on the flag. Calculate the

tatuchka [14]

The free-body diagram of the forces acting on the flag is in the picture in attachment.

We have: the weight, downward, with magnitude
$W=mg = (2.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=24.5 N$
the force of the wind F, acting horizontally, with intensity
$F=12 N$
and the tension T of the rope. To write the conditions of equilibrium, we must decompose T on both x- and y-axis (x-axis is taken horizontally whil y-axis is taken vertically):
$T \cos \alpha -F=0$
$T \sin \alpha -W=$
By dividing the second equation by the first one, we get
$\tan \alpha = \frac{W}{F}= \frac{24.5 N}{12 N}=2.04$
From which we find
$\alpha = 63.8 ^{\circ}$
which is the angle of the rope with respect to the horizontal.

By replacing this value into the first equation, we can also find the tension of the rope:
$T= \frac{F}{\cos \alpha}= \frac{12 N}{\cos 63.8^{\circ}}=27.2 N$

Can you please answer these ASAP!

Answer:

Let's explain this briefly.

Suppose that we have a piece of ice (this is, solid water) now we give energy to the piece of ice, so the temperature of the ice increases. There is a point where the piece of ice will start a change of phase, at this point the temperature of the ice stops increasing because all the energy we give to the ice is used in the change of phase.

Once we have a complete change of phase, the temperature can increase again, and now we will have liquid water.

If we keep increasing the temperature we will see this happen again, when we have the transition from liquid to gas.

(and a similar thing happen when we have a material in a given phase and we remove heat from the material).

In the images we can see the different changes of phase of water.

1) In the first image we can see the circle in a part where the temperature is constant, so the temperature does not change in this part, which means that there is a change of phase happening.

2) Here we have the circle in a diagonal line, so here the temperature is changing, meaning that we have an increase of temperature in this region.

3) Here we want to know what the x-axis represents, this should rerpesent the energy that is being given to the material (so in some parts we see that the temperature increases and in other parts we see that the material changes of phase)

Then here the correct option is heat over time.

4) The freezing point is the temperature in which the change of phase from liquid to solid happens (or solid to liquid).

In the graph we can see that this change of phase happens at the temperature T = -210°C

Then the correct option is -210°C (The last option)
