Answer:

Resistance = 400000 Ohms

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Voltage = 1200 V

Current = 3 mA = 3/1000 = 0.003 A

To find the resistance;

Voltage = current * resistance

Resistance = 1200/0.003

Resistance = 400000 Ohms

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

54 Kobo

Explanation:

Units of <u>electricity</u> are measured in kilowatt hours (kWh).

Given information:

900 watt electric iron
Appliance usage = 4 hours a week for 5 weeks
Unit cost of electricity = 3 Kobo per kWh

Convert the wattage of the electric iron from watts to kilowatts.

1000 watts (W) = 1 kilowatt (kW)

⇒ 900 watts = 1 ÷ 1000 = 0.9 kilowatts

This means that the power consumption of the electric iron is 0.9 kW per hour of use.

Total hours spent pressing clothes:

= 4 hours per week for 5 weeks

= 4 × 5

= 20 hours

<u>Total power consumption</u>:

= number of kW × number of hours

= 0.9 × 20

= 18 kWh

To find the <u>total cost</u>, multiply the total kWh by the cost per kWh:

⇒ Cost = 18 × 3 = 54 Kobo

An electron with a speed of 0.95c is emitted by a supernova, where cc is the speed of light. What is the magnitude of the moment

krok68 [10]

Answer:

2.59×10¯²² Kgm/s

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Velocity of electron = 0.95c

Momentum =?

Next, we shall determine the velocity of the electron. This can be obtained as follow:

Velocity of electron = 0.95c

Velocity of Light (c) = 3×10⁸ m/s

Velocity of electron = 0.95c

Velocity of electron = 0.95 × 3×10⁸

Velocity of electron = 2.85×10⁸ m/s

Finally, we shall determine the mometum of the electron.

Momentum is simply defined as the product of mass and velocity. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Momentum = mass x Velocity

Thus, with the above formula, we calculate the momentum of the electron as follow:

Mass of electron = 9.1×10¯³¹ Kg

Velocity of electron = 2.85×10⁸ m/s

Momentum of electron =?

Momentum = mass x Velocity

Momentum = 9.1×10¯³¹ × 2.85×10⁸

Momentum = 2.59×10¯²² Kgm/s

Therefore, the momentum of the electron is 2.59×10¯²² Kgm/s

Monochromatic light of wavelength, lambda, is traveling in air. The light then strikes a thin film having an index of refraction

kumpel [21]

Answer:

The correct option is H

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The index of refraction of coating is $n_1$

The index of refraction of material is $n_2$

Generally the condition for constructive for a thin film interference is mathematically represented

$2 * t = [ m + \frac{1}{2}] \frac{\lambda}{n_1 }$

Here t represents the thickness

For minimum thickness m = 0

$2 * t =0 + \frac{1}{2}\frac{\lambda}{n_1 }$

=> $t =\frac{\lambda}{4n_1 }$
