What would be the relative difference between the currents required by a 60W lightbulb and a

Physics
1 answer:

4 0

The current required by the 60W bulb is three-fifths that required by the 110W bulb

<h3>Electrical Power</h3>
  • Electrical power is defined as the amount of electrical work done per second
  • Power = electrical work done in joules/time taken in seconds

The formula for calculating power is as follows:

  • P = IV = V²/R = I²R

Assuming the voltage across the light bulbs is the same

From the formula, P = IV;

I = P/V

For the 60 W bulb

I₁ = 60/V

For the 100W bulb

I₂ = 100/V

Taking ratios of the currents:

I₁/I₂ = {60/V}/{`100/V}

I₁/I₂ = 3/5

Therefore, the current required by the 60W bulb is three-fifths that required by the 110W bulb

You are raising up a big bucket of water from a 25.9 m deep well. The combined mass of the water and the bucket is 13.9 kg. The
Mars2501 [29]

The total work done is  5980 Joules and the power expended is 57 Watts.

<h3>What is work done?</h3>

The work done is the work done in the gravitational field as the bucket is raised up Thus work required to remove the bucket Wb;

Wb = 13.9 kg * 25.9 m * 9.8 m/s^2 = 3530 Joules

Height of the center of mass of chain = 25.9 / 2 = 12.95 m  

Work done by the chain Wc;

Wc = 12.95 * 19.3 * 9.8 = 2450 Joules  

Total work = 3530 + 2450 = 5980 Joules

Power expended = W / t = 5980 J / 105 sec = 57 J/s = 57 Watts

What are the differences between the practical and the ideal pendulum​
ankoles [38]

lf a heavy point mass is suspended by a weightless, inextensible and perfectly flexible string from a rigid support, then this arrangement is called simple pendulum.

In practice, however, these requirements cannot be fulfilled. So we use a practical pendulum.

A practical pendulum consists of a small metallic solid sphere suspended by a fine silk thread from a rigid support. This is the practical simple pendulum which is nearest to the ideal simple pendulum.

Note :

The metallic sphere is called the bob.

When the bob is displaced slightly to one side from its mean position and released, it oscillates about its mean position in a vertical plane.
