Answer:

The  resistance is  R  =  2.88 \ \Omega

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  voltage  rating of the headlamp is  V_1  =  12 \ V

     The  voltage of the power system is  p =  24 \  V

     The  power rating of the headlamp  is  P  =  50 W

Generally the power which the resistor dissipates is mathematically represented as

      P  =  V_L *  I

=>       50 =  12 *  I

=>   I  =  4.1667 \  A

Generally the resistance is

      R  =  \frac{V_1 }{I}

      R  =  \frac{12 }{4.1667}

      R  =  2.88 \ \Omega

A 1.50-mm-diameter glass sphere has a charge of + 1.60 nC. What speed does an electron need to orbit the sphere 1.60 mm above th
saveliy_v [14]

Answer :

Velocity will be 3.28\times 10^{-11}m/sec

Explanation:

We have given glass surface has a diameter of 1.5 mm

And charge q = 1.60 nC

Radius of electrons orbit r = height of electron above surface + radius of sphere  = =1.6+\frac{1.5}{2}=2.35mm = 0.00235m

Force on electron is given by F=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _0}\frac{qe}{r^2}, here q is charge on sphere and e is charge on electron

F=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _0}\frac{qe}{r^2}=\frac{kqe}{r^2}=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 1.6\times 10^{-9}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.00235^2}=4.172\times 10^{-13}N

This force work as centripetal force

So F=\frac{mv^2}{r}

4.172\times 10^{-13}=\frac{9.11\times 10^{-31}v^2}{0.00235}

v = =0.0328\times 10^{-9}=3.28\times 10^{-11}m/sec

In a two-body collision, if the momentum of the system is conserved, then which of the
lakkis [162]

Answer:

c) may also be conserved

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved  in both elastic and inelastic type of collisions.

But the differences is that:

In an ELASTIC type of collisions, KINETIC ENERGY IS ALSO CONSERVED.

whereas, In an INELASTIC type of collision, KINETIC ENERGY IS NOT CONSERVED.

So unless until type of collision is specified, we can not say anything about the conservation of kinetic energy after collision.

Hence, may also be conserved is the appropriate option here.
