Why do planets revolve around the sun?​

Physics
1 answer:
stepladder [879]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The gravity of the Sun keeps the planets in their orbits. They stay in their orbits because there is no other force in the Solar System which can stop them.

A lamp can work on 50V mains taking 2 amps. What value of resistance must be connected in series with it, so that it can be oper
wolverine [178]
The resistance of the lamp is apparently  50V/2A  =  25 ohms.

When the circuit is fed with more than 50V, we want to add
another resistor in series with the 25-ohm lamp so that the
current through the combination will be 2A.

In order for 200V to cause 2A of current, the total resistance
must be      200V/2A = 100 ohms.

The lamp provides 25 ohms, so we want to add another 75 ohms 
in series with the lamp.  Then the total resistance of the circuit is
(75 + 25) = 100 ohms, and the current is 200V/100 ohms = 2 Amps.

The power delivered by the 200V mains is (200V) x (2A) = 400 watts.

The lamp dissipates ( I² · R ) = (2² · 25 ohms) = 100 watts.

The extra resistor dissipates  ( I² · R) = (2² · 75 ohms) = 300 watts.

Together, they add up to the 400 watts delivered by the mains.

CAUTION:
300 watts is an awful lot of power for a resistor to dissipate !
Those little striped jobbies can't do it. 
It has to be a special 'power resistor'. 
300 watts is even an unusually big power resistor.
If this story actually happened, it would be cheaper, easier,
and safer to get three more of the same kind of lamp, and
connect THOSE in series for 100 ohms.  Then at least the
power would all be going to provide some light, and not just
wasted to heat the room with a big moose resistor that's too
hot to touch.

Explain the difference between what Isaac Newton and Louis de Broglie would have to say about the momentum of a particle that is
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Newton would resort to the classical mechanics and say that the momentum of the particle that is moving with a constant velocity will be given by: momentum = mass x velocity

this approach will highlight the particle nature and will not be relativistic.

De-Broglie will say that the momentum of the particle is related to its associated matter wave and the relation between them is given by:

p = \frac{h}{\lambda}

where \lambda = wavelength of the matter wave associated to the particle, h = planck's constant

andp = \gamma\times mv

thus, this highlights the wave nature of the particle and is also relativistic.

The metal ions in iron are held together by
Sidana [21]
Metals are giant structures of atoms held together by metallic bonds. “Giant” implies that large but variable numbers of Atoms are involved - depending on the size of the bits of metal. most metals are close packed - that is, they fit as many items as possible into the available volume.
