Q: An appliance with a 20 Ω resistor has a power rating of 15.0 W. Find the maximum current which can flow safely through the appliance g

Answer:

0.866 A

Explanation:

From the question,

P = I²R............................. Equation 1

Where P = power, I = maximum current, R = Resistance.

Make I the subject of the equation

I = √(P/R).................... Equation 2

Given: P = 15 W, R = 20 Ω

Substitute these values into equation 2

I = √(15/20)

I = √(0.75)

I = 0.866 A

Hence the maximum current that can flow safely through the appliance = 0.866 A

This solid layer of the earth is made of mostly iron and nickel.
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer

Explanation:

Yes, it's true that the solid layer of the earth is known as the most dense part as it is made up of the heavy metals like iron and nickel. Inner part is the hotter part due to the high pressure and temperature. It has the temperature of about 5,200°C and the pressure of 3.6 million atm but still the iron and nickel are present there in the solid form as they withstand such high temperature and pressure values.

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Complete question is;. A 73mH solenoid inductor is wound on a form that is 0.80m long and 0.10m in diameter a coil having a resistance of 7.7 ohms is tightly wound around the solenoid at its center the mutual inductance of the coil and solenoid is 19μH at a given instant the current in the solenoid is 820mA and is decreasing at the rate of 2.5A/s at the given instant what is the induced current in the coil

Answer:

6.169 μA

Explanation:

Formula for induced EMF is given by the equation;

EMF = M(di/dt). We are given;

di/dt = 2.5 A/s

M = 19μH = 19 × 10^(-6) H

Thus;

EMF = 19 × 10^(-6) × 2.5.

EMF = 47.5 × 10^(-6) V

Formula for current is;

i = EMF/R. R is resistance given as 7.7 ohms.

Thus; i = 47.5 × 10^(-6)/7.7

i = 6.169 μA

A ball is thrown straight down with a speed of Va2.00 from a building 40.00 meters high. How much S time passes before the ball
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Option C is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Considering vertical motion of ball:-

Initial velocity, u =  2 m/s

Acceleration , a = 9.81 m/s²

Displacement, s = 40 m

We have equation of motion s= ut + 0.5 at²

Substituting

   s= ut + 0.5 at²

    40 = 2 x t + 0.5 x 9.81 x t²

   4.9t²  + 2t - 40 = 0

   t = 2.66 s   or t = -3.06 s

So, time is 2.66 s.

Option C is the correct answer.

During the spin cycle of your clothes washer, the tub rotates at a steady angular velocity of 33.5 rad/s. Find the angular displ
zavuch27 [327]

Answer: angular displacement in rad = 3038.45 rad

angular displacement in rev = 483.589 rev

Explanation: mathematically

Angular velocity = angular displacement / time taken.

Angular velocity = 33.5 rad/s, time taken = 90.7s

33.5 = angular displacement /90.7

Angular displacement = 33.5 * 90.7 = 3038.45 rad

But 1 rev =2π

Hence 3038.45 rad to rev is

3038.45/2π = 483.599 rev
