Answer is 240 ohms

Use the equation V=IR, rearranging it to make R (resistance) the subject.

R = V/I

Substitute the values:
V = 120
I = 0.5

Resistance = 120 / 0.5

Resistance = 240 ohms

The drawing shows a tire of radius R on a moving car
masha68 [24]

Answer:

 H / R = 2/3

Explanation:

Let's work this problem with the concepts of energy conservation. Let's start with point P, which we work as a particle.

Initial. Lowest point

          Em₀ = K = 1/2 m v²

Final. In the sought height

         Em_{f} = U = mg h

Energy is conserved

        Em₀ =  Em_{f}

        ½ m v² = m g h

        v² = 2 gh

Now let's work with the tire that is a cylinder with the axis of rotation in its center of mass

Initial. Lower

        Em₀ = K = ½ I w²

Final. Heights sought

        Emf = U = m g R

        Em₀ =  Em_{f}

       ½ I w² = m g R

The moment of inertial of a cylinder is

       I = I_{cm} + ½ m R²

      I= ½ I_{cm}  + ½ m R²

Linear and rotational speed are related

       v = w / R

       w = v / R

We replace

      ½ I_{cm}  w² + ½ m R² w²  = m g R

moment of inertia of the center of mass      

      I_{cm}  = ½ m R²

     ½ ½ m R² (v²/R²) + ½ m v² = m gR

    m v² ( ¼ + ½ ) = m g R

   

       v² = 4/3 g R

As they indicate that the linear velocity of the two points is equal, we equate the two equations

        2 g H = 4/3 g R

         H / R = 2/3

Why is there a difference between potential and kinetic energy?
inn [45]

Potential energy is stored energy because it has the potential to do something which laters turns into kinetic energy which is the moving energy.

A 5.00 g object moving to the right at 20.0 cm/s makes an elastic head-on collision with a 10.0 g object that is initially at re
marusya05 [52]

Answer: a) 6.67cm/s b) 1/2

Explanation:

According to law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the bodies before collision is equal to the momentum of the bodies after collision. Since the second body was initially at rest this means the initial velocity of the body is "zero".

Let m1 and m2 be the masses of the bodies

u1 and u2 be their velocities respectively

m1 = 5.0g m2 = 10.0g u1 = 20.0cm/s u2 = 0cm/s

Since momentum = mass × velocity

The conservation of momentum of the body will be

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

Note that the body will move with a common velocity (v) after collision which will serve as the velocity of each object after collision.

5(20) + 10(0) = (5+10)v

100 + 0 = 15v

v = 100/15

v = 6.67cm/s

Therefore the velocity of each object after the collision is 6.67cm/s

b) kinectic energy of the 10.0g object will be 1/2MV²

= 1/2×10×6.67²

= 222.44Joules

kinectic energy of the 5.0g object will be 1/2MV²

= 1/2×5×6.67²

= 222.44Joules

= 111.22Joules

Fraction of the initial kinetic transferred to the 10g object will be

111.22/222.44

= 1/2

A football is thrown vertically with an initial velocity of 33m/s. Calculate the velocity of the ball when it’s height increased
tatyana61 [14]

The final velocity becomes 31.48 m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Initial velocity, u = 33 m/s

Height, h = 5m

Final velocity, v = ?

According to Newton's law:

v² - u² = 2gh

where,

g is the acceleration due to gravity and

g = 9.8 m/s²

On substituting the values we get:

v^2 - (33)^2 = 2 X -9.8 X 5\\\\v^2 - 1089 = -98\\\\v^2 = 991\\\\v = 31.48 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity becomes 31.48 m/s
