Answer:

7,14545 mph and 3,1936 m/s

Explanation:

The average speed is calculated by dividing the displacement over time, then it is 26,2 miles/(3 2/3 hours), here 3 (2/3) hours is a mixed number, that represents 11/3 hours or 3,66 hours. Then the average speed is 7,14545 mph, now to turn this into meters per second, we notice as mentioned that 1 mile =1609 meters and 1 hour=3600 seconds. Then 7,14545 miles/hour* (1 hour/3600 seconds) * (1609 meters/1 mile)=3,1936 m/s

  • Resistance=R=210Ohm
  • Power=9.28W=P

Current=I

\boxed{\sf P=I^2R}

\\ \sf\longmapsto I^2=\dfrac{P}{R}

\\ \sf\longmapsto I^2=\dfrac{9.28}{210}

\\ \sf\longmapsto I^2\approx0.04

\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx\sqrt{0.04}

\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx\sqrt{\dfrac{4}{100}}

\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx\dfrac{\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{100}}

\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx\dfrac{2}{10}

\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx0.2A

If a battery is running down, a light bulb in the circuit will become dimmer because when voltage drops
lana [24]
A. There is less current flowing through the bulb.

Ohms law dictates that Electrical voltage = current x resistance. To understand current you would divide voltage by resistance. The less voltage the less current will run through the circuit.

Answer:

Velocity and speed both are continuously increasing.

Acceleration is constant.

Explanation:

Speed is defined as length of path covered by a body per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity that consist of magnitude only and not direction.

Velocity is defined as the displacement per unit times. Displacement is the shortest distance between the two points. It is a vector quantity and  hence has a direction in the direction of displacement along with its own magnitude.

  • Both velocity and speed have same unit of measure which is meter per second in S.I. During <em>free fall</em> in the absence of any air resistance the velocity and speed both will be having a vertical downward direction with continuously increasing magnitude. Tough we are not concerned about the direction when discussing about speed but here both are equal since the motion is linear.

Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity of a body which is a vector quantity. For speed we are concerned about instantaneous acceleration since for a short period of time it may have a specific direction.

  • During free fall the acceleration is of a body is equal to the acceleration due to gravity and constant when the height of fall is much lesser than the radius of the earth.

Two children are pulling on opposite sides of a blanket. The brother is pulling with a force of 3 N. The sister is pulling with
Citrus2011 [14]
Let F1=Force exerted by the brother (+F1)
F1= Force exerted by the sister (-F2)

Fnet=(+F1) + (-F2)
Fnet= (+F1) + (-F2)
Fnet=F1 - F2
Fnet= (+3N)+(-5N)
Fnet= -2N

-F

towards the sister (-F) (greater force applied)

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

D. 1×10⁻⁸ M

Explanation:

[H⁺] [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴

(1×10⁻⁶) [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴

[OH⁻] = 1×10⁻⁸
