Answer:

0.41s

8.01m/s

Explanation:

Using the formula; v = u + at

Where;

u = initial velocity (m/s)

v = final velocity (m/s)

t = time (s)

a = acceleration (m/s²)

According to the provided information, u = 4m/s, s = 8m,

V = u + at

4 = 0 + 9.8t

4 = 9.8t

t = 0.41s

b) v = u + at

v = 4 + 9.8(0.41)

v = 4 + 4.018

v = 8.018m/s

A material that transmits nearly all the light in a ray because it offers little resistance to the light is ________.
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

D. transparent.

Explanation:

A material that transmits nearly all the light in a ray because it offers little resistance to the light is <u>transparent.</u>

A transparent material allows light to pass through them with little or no resistance enabling them see-through. A material that transmits nearly all the light rays that pass through it because it offers little resistance to the light is TRANSPARENT. Examples of transparent materials are water,  glass (flint and crown), air, and diamond.

A carbon resistor is 4 mm long and has a constant cross section of 0.2 mm2. The conductivity of carbon at room temperature is 3
tangare [24]

Answer:

The resistance is found to be 6Ω

The current is found to be 0.66 A

Explanation:

The resistance of a conductor in terms of its dimensions is given as:

R = ρL/A

where,

R = resistance = ?

ρ = resistivity = 3 x 10⁴ Ω.m

L = Length = 4 mm = 0.004 m

A = Cross-sectional area = 0.2 mm² = 0.2 x 10⁻⁶ m²

Therefore,

R = (3 x 10⁴ Ω.m)(0.004 m)/(0.2 x 10⁻⁶ m²)

<u>R = 6 Ω</u>

Now, the potential difference between both ends of the resistor is:

ΔV = 16 V - 12 V = 4 V

Now, from Ohm's Law:

V = IR

I = V/R

I = 4 V/ 6 Ω

<u>I = 0.66 A</u>
