What is the voltage drop across a 3 kω resistor connected to a 9v power source?

1 answer:

8 0

We connect a 3 $k\Omega$ resistor in series to a power source. With the series connection one end of the resistor is connected to the positive terminal of the power source while the other the other end of the resistor is connected to the negative terminal of the power source. Hence the current through the resistor is given bythe Ohm's law
$I=U/R$ and the voltage drop on the resistor is given equal to the power source voltage.
$U=9 V$

A spacecraft travels at 1.5 X 108 m/s relative to Earth. A process onboard the

kvasek [131]

Answer:

73.6 minutes

Explanation:

relative time = time interval / √(1 - observer velocity² / speed of light²)

we have relative time. we want time interval.

rearrange

time interval = relative time x √(1 - observer velocity² / speed of light²)

convert 85 mins into seconds

85 x 60 = 5100

1.5 x 10⁸ as a number is 150000000

for c = 299 792 458

time interval = 5100 x √(1 - 150 000 000² / 299 792 458²)

for c = 3 x 10⁸

time interval = 5100 x √(1 - 150 000 000² / 300 000 000²)

time interval = 5100 x 0.866

time interval = 4415.71

divide by 60 for back into minutes

time = 73.6 minutes

The river narrows at a rapids from a width of 12 m to a width of only 5.8 m. The depth of the river before the rapids is 2.7 m;

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

7.89 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

Width of the river, b1 = 12 m

Width of the river, b2 = 5.8 m

Depth of the river, d1 = 2.7 m

Depth of the river, d2 = 0.85 m

Speed of the river, v1 = 1.2 m/s

Speed of the river, v2 = ?

Area of the river before the rapid, a1 = 12 * 2.7 = 32.4 m²

Area of the river after the rapid, a2 = 5.8 * 0.85 = 4.93 m²

To solve this question, we use a relation between the speed of the river and the volume of the river. We say,

Area1 * velocity1 = Area2 * velocity2, and when we substitute the values for each other we have

32.4 * 1.2 = 4.93 * v2

38.88 = 4.93v2

v2 = 38.88 / 4.93

v2 = 7.89 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the river after the rapid is 7.89 m/s

A meter stick is held vertically with one end on the floor and is then allowed to fall. Find the speed of the other end when it

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

5.4 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

Here we have to use conservation of energy. Initially when the stick is held vertical, its center of mass is at some height above the ground, hence the stick has some gravitational potential energy. As the stick is allowed to fall, its rotates about one. gravitational potential energy of the stick gets converted into rotational kinetic energy.

$L$ = length of the meter stick = 1 m

$m$ = mass of the meter stick

$w$ = angular speed of the meter stick as it hits the floor

$v$ = speed of the other end of the stick

we know that, linear speed and angular speed are related as

$v = r w\\w = \frac{v}{r}$

$h$ = height of center of mass of meter stick above the floor = $\frac{L}{2} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5 m$

$I$ = Moment of inertia of the stick about one end

For a stick, momentof inertia about one end has the formula as

$I = \frac{mL^{2} }{3}$

Using conservation of energy

Rotational kinetic energy of the stick = gravitational potential energy

$(0.5) I w^{2} = mgh\\(0.5)(\frac{mL^{2} }{3}) (\frac{v}{L} )^{2} = mgh\\(0.5)(\frac{v^{2} }{3}) = gh\\(0.5)(\frac{v^{2} }{3}) = (9.8)(0.5)\\v = 5.4 ms^{-1}$

Which describes the greenhouse effect? 1. Earth continues to get warmer over time because it is slowly moving closer to the sun.

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: The green house effect is best described by option 4 (Energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface).

Explanation:

The green house effect can be described as the energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface.

When energy from the sun passes through the atmosphere, some are absorbed which keeps the earth surface warm. While the rest is reflected back largely by cloud.

The energy which is emitted from the earth surface is called the infrared radiation. Some of the infrared radiation passess through the atmosphere but most is absorbed and re- emitted in all directions by the greenhouse gas molecules and clouds. This effect warms the earth surface and the lower atmosphere. Therefore this statement (Energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface) is correct about greenhouse effect.

For the greenhouse effect to occur, greenhouse gas molecules are mostly needed. Examples of these gases include:

--> Carbon dioxide (CO2),

--> Water vapor (H2O), and

--> Methane (CH4)

Over the years, the excessive human activities has lead to increase in the greenhouse gas molecules which has negatively affected the greenhouse effects.
