A free-falling object has an acceleration of 9.8 m/s/s, downward (on Earth). ... It is known as the acceleration of gravity - the acceleration for any object moving under the sole influence of gravity.

Power Rating of a Resistor. The power rating of a resistor is the maximum power the resistor can safely dissipate without too gr

IgorLugansk [536]

(a) 273.9 V

The power rating of the resistor is given by

$P=\frac{V^2}{R}$

where

P is the power rating

V is the potential difference across the resistor

R is the resistance

If the maximum power rating is $P=5.0 W$ , and the resistance of the resistor is $R=15 k\Omega = 15000 \Omega$ , then we can find the maximum potential difference across the resistor by re-arranging the previous equation for V:

$V=\sqrt{PR}=\sqrt{(5.0 W)(15000 \Omega)}=273.9 V$

(b) 1.6 W

In this case, we have:

$R=9.0 k\Omega = 9000 \Omega$ is the resistance of the resistor

$V=120 V$ is the potential difference across the resistor

So we can find the power rating by using the same formula of part (a):

$P=\frac{V^2}{R}=\frac{(120 V)^2}{9000 \Omega}=1.6 W$

(c) Maximum voltage: 14.1 V; Rate of heat: 2.00 W and 3.00 W

Here we have two resistors of

$R_1 = 100 \Omega\\R_2 = 150 \Omega$

and each resistor has a power rating of

P = 2.00 W

So the greatest potential difference allowed in the first resistor is

$V=\sqrt{PR_1}=\sqrt{(2.00 W)(100 \Omega)}=14.1 V$

While the greatest potential difference allowed in the second resistor is

$V=\sqrt{PR_2}=\sqrt{(2.00 W)(150 \Omega)}=17.3 V$

So the greatest potential difference allowed not to overheat either of the resistor is 14.1 V.

In this condition, the power dissipated on the first resistor is 2.00 W, while the power dissipated on the second resistor is

$P_2 = \frac{V^2}{R_2}=\frac{(14.1 V)^2}{150 \Omega}=1.33 W$

And this corresponds to the rate of heat generated in the first resistor (2.00 W) and in the second resistor (1.33 W).

Do rolling down a grassy hill has kinetic energy or potential energy

Ann [662]

If you're moving, then you have kinetic energy.

If you're not at the bottom yet, then you still have
some potential energy left.

A block of mass 0.221 kg is placed on top of a light, vertical spring of force constant 5365 N/m and pushed downward so that the

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The maximum height above the point of release is 11.653 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block = 0.221 kg

Spring constant k = 5365 N/m

Distance x = 0.097 m

We need to calculate the height

Using stored energy in spring

$U=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2$ ...(I)

Using gravitational potential energy

$U' =mgh$ ....(II)

Using energy of conservation

$E_{i}=E_{f}$

$U_{i}+U'_{i}=U_{f}+U'_{f}$

$\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2+0=0+mgh$

$h=\dfrac{kx^2}{2mg}$

Where, k = spring constant

m = mass of the block

x = distance

g = acceleration due to gravity

Put the value in the equation

$h=\dfrac{5365\times(0.097)^2}{2\times0.221\times9.8}$

$h=11.653\ m$

Hence, The maximum height above the point of release is 11.653 m.

Describe each class of lever and explain to characteristics of each

Nataly [62]

-- Class I lever

The fulcrum is between the effort and the load.

The Mechanical Advantage can be anything, more or less than 1 .

Example: a see-saw

-- Class II lever

The load is between the fulcrum and the effort.

The Mechanical Advantage is always greater than 1 .

Example: a nut-cracker, a garlic press

-- Class III lever

The effort is between the fulcrum and the load.

The Mechanical Advantage is always less than 1 .

I can't think of an example right now.
