An 8.00- W resistor is dissipating 100 watts. What are the current through it and the difference of potential across it?

Physics
1 answer:
hjlf3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

I= 3.5 amps

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

rating of resistor R= 8 ohms

power P= 100W

Required

The current I

Step two

Yet this power is also given by

P = I^2R

make I subject of the formula we have

I= \sqrt{\frac{P}{R} }

substitute

I= \sqrt{\frac{100}{8} }\\\\I=\sqrt{12.5}\\\\I= 3.5 amps

just olya [345]

Answer:

1.99 parsecs.

Explanation:

We have been given that the most recently discovered system close to Earth is a pair of brown dwarfs known as Luhman 16. It has a distance of 6.5 light-years.

We know that one light year equals to 0.306601 parsecs. To convert 6.5 light-years to parsecs, we will multiply 0.306601 by 6.5.

6.5\text{ Light-years}=6.5\times 0.306601\text{ Parsecs}

6.5\text{ Light-years}=1.9929065\text{ Parsecs}

6.5\text{ Light-years}\approx 1.99\text{ Parsecs}

Therefore, Luhman 16 is approximately 1.99 parsecs away from the Earth.

Will give you brainliest pls help
ExtremeBDS [4]

1. All the relevant resistors are in series, so the total (or equivalent) resistance is the sum of the resistances of the resistors: 20 Ω + 80 Ω + 50 Ω = 150 Ω [choice A].

2. The ammeter will read the current flowing through this circuit. We can find the ammeter reading using Ohm's law in terms of the electromotive force provided by the battery: I = ℰ/R = (30 V)(150 Ω) = 0.20 A [choice C].

3. The voltmeter will measure the potential drop across the 50 Ω resistor, i.e., the voltage at that resistor. We know from question 2 that the current flowing through the resistor is 0.20 A. So, from Ohm's law, V = IR = (0.20 A)(50 Ω) = 10. V, which will be the voltmeter reading [choice F].

4. Trick question? If the circuit becomes open, then no current will flow. Moreover, even if the voltmeter were kept as element of the circuit, voltmeters generally have a very high resistance (an ideal voltmeter has infinite resistance), so the current moving through the circuit will be negligible if not nil. In any case, the ammeter reading would be 0 A [choice B].

In 0.60 seconds, a projectile goes from 0 to 610 m/s. What is the acceleration of the projectile?
IceJOKER [234]

Answer: a=1016.66 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Acceleration a is expressed in the following formula:

a=\frac{V_{f}-V_{o}}{t}

Where:

V_{f}=610 m/s is the final velocity of the projectile

V_{o}=0 m/s  is the initial velocity of the projectile

t=0.6 s is the time

Solving:

a=\frac{610 m/s-0 m/s}{0.6 s}

a=1016.66 m/s^{2} This is the acceleration of the projectile

How do you do this question?
umka2103 [35]

Explanation:

The moment of inertia of each disk is:

Idisk = 1/2 MR²

Using parallel axis theorem, the moment of inertia of each rod is:

Irod = 1/2 mr² + m (R − r)²

The total moment of inertia is:

I = 2Idisk + 5Irod

I = 2 (1/2 MR²) + 5 [1/2 mr² + m (R − r)²]

I = MR² + 5/2 mr² + 5m (R − r)²

Plugging in values:

I = (125 g) (5 cm)² + 5/2 (250 g) (1 cm)² + 5 (250 g) (5 cm − 1 cm)²

I = 23,750 g cm²
