A 1.5V battery is connected to a small light bulb with a resistance of 3.5 what is the current in the bulb?

1 answer:

5 0

Technically, we don't have the information needed to calculate the current,
because you haven't mentioned the units of the 3.5 .

Since the 3.5 is a resistance, we strongly suspect ... and we'll therefore
assume ... that the 3.5 has the units of ohms. Then . . .

Current = (voltage) / (resistance) = (1.5/3.5) = <em>3/7 of an Ampere</em>.

(429 mA, rounded)

When cars are equipped with flexible bumpers, they will bounce off each other during low-speed collisions, thus causing less dam

Len [333]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the heavier car m_1 = 1750 kg

Mass of the lighter car m_2 = 1350 kg

The speed of the lighter car just after collision can be represented as follows

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2\\\\v_2=\frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1}{m_2}$

$v_2=\frac{(1850)(1.4)+(1450)(-1.10)-(1850)(0.250)}{1450} \\\\=\frac{2590+(-1595)-(462.5)}{1450} \\\\=\frac{2590-1595-462.5}{1450} \\\\=\frac{532.5}{1450}\\\\=0.367m/s$

b) the change in the combined kinetic energy of the two-car system during this collision

$\Delta K.E=(\frac{1}{2} m_1v_1^2+\frac{1}{2} m_2v_2^2)-(\frac{1}{2} m_1u_1^2+\frac{1}{2} m_2u_2^2)\\\\=\frac{1}{2} (m_1(v_1^2-u_1^2)+m_2(v_2^2-u_2^2))$

substitute the value in the equation above

$=\frac{1}{2} (1850((0.250)^2-(1.4)^2)+(1450((0.3670)^2-(-1.10)^2)\\\\=\frac{1}{2}(11850(0.0625-1.96)+(1450(0.1347)-(1.21))\\\\= \frac{1}{2}(11850(-1.8975))+(1450(-1.0753))\\\\=\frac{1}{2} (-3510.375+(-1559.185)\\\\=\frac{1}{2} (-5069.56)\\\\=-2534.78J$

Hence, the change in combine kinetic energy is -2534.78J

A hollow metal sphere is electrically neutral (no excess charge). A small amount of negative charge is suddenly placed at one po

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The excess charge has distributed itself evenly over the outside surface of the sphere.

Explanation:

Since the hollow sphere is a conductor, it has free electrons that can move about within the sphere. In this light, an excess charge, the like charges repels each other, therefore ensuring that charges are spread as far apart as possible. There is therefore an evenly distributed charge on the outside surface of the sphere.
