Answer:

it will be d) 14.4W

Explanation:

potential difference (v) = 12 volts

resistance (r) = 10 ohms

now, we know

=》

$power = \frac{v {}^{2} }{r}$

=》

$power \: = \frac{12 {}^{2} }{10}$

=》

$power = \frac{144}{10}$

=》

$power = 14.4 \: watt$

a parent swings a 18.5 kg child in a circle of radius 1.05m, making 5 revolutions in 13.4s. what centripetal acceleration does t

Zolol [24]

Answer: $0.146 m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration $a_{c}$ of an object moving in a uniform circular path is given by the following equation:

$a_{c}=\frac{V^{2}}{r}$ (1)

Where:

$V$ is the tangential velocity

$r=1.05 m$ is the radius of the circle

On the other hand, the tangential velocity is expressed as:

$V=\omega r$ (2)

Where $\omega$ is the angular velocity, which can be found knowing the child makes 5 revolutions in 13.4s:

$\omega=\frac{5 rev}{13.4 s}=0.37 rev/s$ (3)

Substituting (3) in (2):

$V=(0.37 rev/s)(1.05 m)$ (4)

$V=0.39 m/s$ (5)

Substituting (5) in (1):

$a_{c}=\frac{(0.39 m/s)^{2}}{1.05 m}$ (6)

Finally:

$a_{c}=0.146 m/s^{2}$

We repeat the experiment from the video, but this time we connect the wires in parallel rather than in series. Which wire will n

Fed [463]

Answer: B. The copper wire (resistance 0.1)

Explanation: When resistance is in parallel, voltage (V) is the same but current is different for every resistance. Current (i) is related to voltage and resistance (R) by Ohm's Law

i = $\frac{V}{R}$

So, since both wires are in parallel, they have the same voltage but because the copper wire resistance is smaller than Nichrome wire, the first's current will be bigger.

Every resistor in a circuit dissipates electrical power (P) that is converted into heat energy. The dissipation can be found by:

P = $i^{2}*R$

As current for copper wire is bigger than nichrome, power will be bigger and it will dissipate more heat.

In conclusion, the copper wire will dissipate more heat when connected in parallel.

A particle leaves the origin with an initial velocity v = (3.00 i hat) m/s and a constant acceleration a = (-3.00 i hat - 1.400

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

a) —0.5 j m/s

b) 4.5 i + 2.25 j m

Explanation:

Givens:

v_0 =3.00 i m/s

a= (-3 i — 1.400 j ) m/s^2

The maximum x coordinate is reached when dx/dt = 0 or v_x = 0 ,thus :

v_x = v_0 + at = 0 

(3.00 i m/s) + (-3 i m/s^2)t=0

t = (3 m/s)/-3 i m/s^2

t = -1 s

Therefore the particle reaches the maximum x-coordinate at time t = 1 s.

Part a The velocity-of course- is all in the y-direction,therefore:

v_y =v_0+ at

We have that v_0 = 0 in the y-direction.

v_y = (-0.5 j m/s^2)(1 s)

= —0.5 j m/s

Part b: While the position of the particle at t = 1 s is given by:

r=r_0+v_0*t+1/2*a*t^2

Where r_0 = 0 since the particle started from the origin.

Its position at t = 1 s is then given by :

r =(3.00 i m/s)(1 s)+1/2(-3 i — 1.400 j )(1 s)^2

=4.5 i + 2.25 j m
