Answer:

The resistance that will provide this potential drop is 388.89 ohms.

Explanation:

Given;

Voltage source, E = 12 V

Voltage rating of the lamp, V = 5 V

Current through the lamp, I = 18 mA

Extra voltage or potential drop = 12 V - 5 V = 7 V

The resistance that will provide this potential drop (7 V) is calculated as follows:

R = \frac{V}{I} = \frac{7 \ V}{18 \times 10^{-3} A} \ = 388.89 \ ohms

Therefore, the resistance that will provide this potential drop is 388.89 ohms.

B = 0.018 T Ans, 

Since, it is moving in a circular path, thus, centripetal force will act on it i.e.
F =  \frac{ mv^{2} }{r}
where, m is the mass of the object, v is the velocity and r is the radius of circular path.

And, since a positive charge is moving, it will create magnetic force which is equal to F = qvB
where q is the charge, v is the velocity of the particle and B is the magnetic field.
Now, the two forces will be equal,
i.e. \frac{ mv^{2} }{r} = qvB
⇒ \frac{ mv }{r} = qB
⇒B = \frac{ mv }{qr}

use q = 1.6 * 10^ -19

3) A driver in a 1000-kg car traveling at 24 m/s slams on the brakes and skids to a stop. If the coefticient of friction between
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

A) 37 m

Explanation:

The car is moving of uniformly accelerated motion, so the distance it covers can be calculated by using the following SUVAT equation:

v^2 -u^2 = 2ad (1)

where

v = 0 m/s is the final velocity of the car

u = 24 m/s is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

d is the length of the skid

We need to find the acceleration first. We know that the force responsible for the (de)celeration is the force of friction, so:

F=ma=-\mu mg

where

m = 1000 kg is the mass of the car

\mu = 0.80 is the coefficient of friction

a is the deceleration of the car

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

The negative sign is due to the fact that the force of friction is against the motion of the car, so the sign of the acceleration will be negative because the car is slowing down. From this equation, we find:

a=-\mu g

And we can substitute it into eq.(1) to find d:

v^2 -u^2 = 2(\-mu g) d\\d= \frac{v^2-u^2}{-2 \mu g}=\frac{0-(24 m/s)^2}{-2(0.80)(9.8 m/s^2)}=36.7 m \sim 37 m

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:The answer is B

Explanation:

A generator produces electricity. Energy enters the system (generator) as kinetic energy. It is converted into electrical energy, which can run electrical appliances. Some energy is always wasted as heat and sound. Therefore, Choice B is the best answer.
