Answer:8.2 Ω

Explanation:

I ASSUME you mean Ω (ohms) and not W(atts)

Re = 1/(1 / 27 + 1/56 + 1/15) = 8.2263329... ≈ 8.2 Ω

a lamp or bulb is marked 12 volt 240 Watts how many joules does it consume in one hour and what is the current that passes throu
valkas [14]

Answer:

1 watt is 1 Joule per second. 240 watt would then be 240 joules per second. How many seconds are there in an hour? Current formula is P= IV , P is 240(not the power in an hour because the current is calculated in seconds), and V is 12V. Then you will get I, the current.

Pretend you (80 kg) are making repairs on the outside of the International Space Station. You are floating 20 meters away from t
djyliett [7]

Answer:

32 seconds

Explanation:

m1 = 80 kg

m2 = 10 kg

v2 = 5m/s

According to the property of conservation of momentum, assuming that both you and the bag are stationary before the safety rope comes lose:

m_{1} v_{1} =m_{2} v_{2} \\80v_{1} =10*5 \\v_{1} = 0.625\ m/s

Since the space station is 20 meters away, the time taken to reach it is given by:

t = \frac{20}{0.625}\\t=32\ s

It takes you 32 seconds to reach the station.

An excited 92 kg football player celebrates a touchdown by carelessly running straight into the goalpost at 9.4 m/s. He bounces
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

i. 15.6 m/s

ii. I = 1.44 KNs

Explanation:

The impulse, I, on a body is the product of force applied on it and the time it acts.

i.e I = F x t

Impulse is sometimes expressed as the change in momentum of a body. It is measured in Ns.

i. mass, m, of the player = 92 kg

initial velocity of the player, u = 9.4 m/s

final velocity of the player, v = 6.2 m/s

Since he bounces back on hitting the pole, then the sign of initial and final velocities are of opposite sign.

So that,

change in velocity of the player = final velocity - initial velocity

                                          = 6.2 - (-9.4)

                                         = 6.2 + 9.4

                                         = 15.6 m/s

change in velocity of the player is 15.6 m/s

ii. Impulse, I = m(v - u)

                    = 92 x 15.6

                    = 1435.2

Impulse on the player is 1.44 KNs.

A firework is launched with a force of 700 N and a momentum of 200 kg-m/s. How much time before is explodes?
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

t = 0.28 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Force acting on a firework, F = 700 N

The momentum of the firework, p =200 kg-m/s

We need to find the time before it explodes. Ket the time be t. We know that, the rate of change of momentum is equal to external frce. So,

F=\dfrac{P}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{P}{F}\\\\t=\dfrac{200}{700}\\t=0.28\ s

So, the required time is equal to 0.28 seconds.
