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

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

680 J

Explanation:

Mechanical energy = potential energy + kinetic energy

ME = PE + KE

ME = mgh + ½ mv²

ME = (77.1 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (0.90 m) + ½ (77.1 kg) (0 m/s)²

ME = 680 J

What is the mass of a 735-N weight on Earth?
Allisa [31]
W = mg,      Assuming g ≈ 9.8 m/s² on the earth surface.

735 N =  m* 9.8

735/9.8 =  m

75 = m

Mass , m = 75 kg.  B.

Speed is velocity in a given direction<br> O True<br> O False
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

Velocity = speed with direction.

Think of speed and direction like rockets and missiles. Rockets are not smart. Missiles are smart. Rockets go in one direction. Missiles can track their targets, they have a specific destination, a specific direction.

Velocity is often used in physics, because its almost useless to know how fast an object is going if you don't know which direction it is going.

Think of it like this. If the Weather man told you a hurricane was traveling at 30 miles an hour, but didn't tell you which direction it was going, you would have no idea where to run, or if it was going to hit you at all. However, if he told you it was going 30 miles an hour to the North, and you were West of it, you would be fine, and wouldn't have to worry.
