Planetary rings are ice crystals or particles. These particles are numerous and they are small. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune all have rings and are all Jovian planets.

Saturn has big and numerous rings and are visible from Earth. Jupiter's rings are almost invisible and are dusty. Uranus and Neptune have narrow rings but they are very bright and dense and have very thin dust rings in between. Neptune's rings however are more dense than Uranus' and they seem to make arcs rather than complete circles around the planet. 

Gap moons are small moons that orbit within the rings. They cause gaps in the rings because of the gravity of the moons. They push through the ring particles and move them away from each other.

Moons that are further away also affect the rings through resonances. Resonances can launch waves within the rings. Resonances also causes gaps in rings when the moons push on the ring particles repeatedly.

A current of 9 A flows through an electric device with a resistance of 43 Ω. What must be the applied voltage in this particular
lubasha [3.4K]

Voltage, V = IR

Where I is current in Ampere, R is Resistance in Ohms.

V = 9A * 43 Ω

V = 387 V

geniusboy [140]

Explanation:

Given that,

Current, I = 0.015 A

Voltage, V = 240 volts

We need to find the resistance. Using Ohm's law we can find it as follows :

V=IR\\\\R=\dfrac{V}{I}\\\\R=\dfrac{240}{0.015}\\\\R=16000\ \Omega

So, When a current of 0.015 A passes through human body at 240 volts p.d it  causes​  16000 ohms of resistance.
