A flashlight contains a battery of two cells in series, with a bulb of resistance 12 Ohms. The internal resistance of each cell

is 0.26 ohms. If the potential difference across the bulb is 2.88V, what is the emf of EACH cell?

Answer:

1.5024

Explanation:

Draw a diagram. Put the two cells in series. Now draw 3 resistors. Two of them equal 0.26 ohms each. The third one is the lightbulb which is 12 ohms.

R = 0.26 + 0.26 + 12 = 12.52

The bulb has a voltage of 2.88 volts across it. You can get the current from that.

i = E / R

i = 2.88 / 12 =

i = 0.24 amps.

Now you can get the voltage drop across the two cells.

E = ?

R = 0.26

i = 0.24 amps

E = 0.26 * 0.24

E = 0. 0624

Finally divide the 2.88 by 2 to get 1.44

Each cell has an emf of 1.44 + 0.0624 = 1.5024

Answer:

16.25^{\circ}

Explanation:

R = Horizontal range of projectile = 75 m

v = Velocity of projectile = 37 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81\ \text{m/s}^2

Horizontal range is given by

R=\dfrac{v^2\sin2\theta}{g}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{\sin^{-1}\dfrac{Rg}{v^2}}{2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{\sin^{-1}\dfrac{75\times 9.81}{37^2}}{2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=16.25^{\circ}

The angle at which the arrow is to be released is 16.25^{\circ}.

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

change in entropy is 1.44 kJ/ K

Explanation:

from steam tables

At 150 kPa

specific volume

Vf = 0.001053 m^3/kg

vg = 1.1594 m^3/kg

specific entropy values are

Sf = 1.4337 kJ/kg K

Sfg = 5.789 kJ/kg

initial specific volume is calculated as

v_1 = vf + x(vg - vf)

      = 0.001053 + 0.25(1.1594 - 0.001053)

v_1 = 0.20964  m^3/kg

s_1 = Sf + x(Sfg)

     = 1.4337 + 0.25 \times 5.7894 = 2.88 kJ/kg K

FROM STEAM Table

at 200 kPa

specific volume

Vf = 0.001061 m^3/kg

vg = 0.88578 m^3/kg

specific entropy values are

Sf = 1.5302 kJ/kg K

Sfg = 5.5698 kJ/kg

constant volume  sov_1 -  v_2  = 0.29064 m^3/kg

v_2 = v_1 = vf + x(vg - vf)

       =0.29064 = x_2(0.88578 - 0.001061)

x_2 = 0.327

s_2 = 1.5302 + 0.32 \times 5.5968 = 3.36035 kJ/kg K

Change in entropy \Delta s = m(s_2 - s_1)

              =3( 3.36035 - 2.88) =  1.44 kJ/kg
