The maximum voltage which can be applied before the bulb will break is 50 Volts.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Resistance of light bulb = 5 Ohms
  • Current = 10 Amps.

To find how much voltage can be applied before the bulb will break, we would apply Ohm's law:

Ohm's law states that at constant temperature, the current flowing through an electrical circuit is directly proportional to the voltage applied across the two terminals of the circuit and it's inversely proportional to the resistance in the electrical circuit.

Mathematically, Ohm's law is given by the formula;

V = IR

<u>Where;</u>

  • V is voltage measured in voltage.
  • I is current measured in amperes.
  • R is resistance measured in ohms.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

Voltage = 10 × 5

<em>Voltage </em><em>=</em><em> 50 Volts.</em>

Therefore, the maximum voltage which can be applied before the bulb will break is 50 Volts.

How long (in seconds) does it take a car accelerating at 3.1 m/s2 to go from rest<br> to 51 m/s?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

 t  = 16.5s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Acceleration = 3.1m/s²

Initial velocity  = 0m/s

Final velocity  = 51m/s

Unknown:

Time taken  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem we need to reiterate that acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

So;

        Acceleration  = \frac{v  - u }{t}  

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

  So;

       3.1  = \frac{51 - 0}{t}  

    3.1t  = 51

       t  = 16.5s

A total charge of 4.70 is distributed on two metal spheres. When the spheres are 10 cm apart, they each feel a repulsive force o
Anna35 [415]

Answer:0.114 C

Explanation:

Given

Total 4.7 C is distributed in two spheres

Let q_1 and q_2 be the charges such that

q_1+q_2=4.7

and Force between charge particles is given by

F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

4.7\times 10^11=\frac{9\times 10^9\times q_1\cdot q_2}{0.1^2}

q_1\cdot q_2=0.522

put the value of q_1

q_2\left ( 4.7-q_2\right )=0.522

q_2^2-4.7q_2+0.522=0

q_2=\frac{4.7\pm \sqrt{4.7^2-4\times 1\times 0.522}}{2}

q_2=0.114 C

thus q_1=4.586 C

Water flows through a 2.5cm diameter pipe at a rate of
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

From the Bernoulli energy principle,

ΔP + 1/2ρΔv² = 0 -------------------------- eqn 1

where

ΔP = pressure drop = P2 - P1 = (1 - 0.25)x10⁵ N/m =7.5 x 10⁴N/m

Δv²= velocity change = v₂² - v₁²

ρ = water density = 1kg/m3

Recall volumetric flow rate, Q=A v = constant

A = cross sectional area = πr²=πd²/4

d=pipe diameter at point 2 = 2.5cm = 0.025m and Q =0.20m³/min = 0.00333m³/s

So A= 0.000491m²

we can get v2 = Q/A = 6.79m/s

From eqn 1, v₁² = 2(P2 - P1)/ρ + v₂²

v₁² =  (2 x 7.5 x 10⁴)/1000 + 6.79²

v₁² = 196

v₁ = 14m/s

we can now get the area of the constriction point 2, A₁ = Q/v₁

A₁ = 0.000238m² and the diameter now will be d₁

d₁² = 4 x A₁ / π

     = 4 x 0.000238/3.14 = 0.000303m²

d₁ = √0.000303 = 0.0174m

Therefore, the diameter of  a constriction in the pipe  at the new pressure = 0.0174m = 1.74cm
