Option D

The resistance in machine is 8.5 ohms

Solution:

Given that,

Power = 1700 W

Voltage = 120 V

We have to find the resistance in machine

The formula used is:

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

Where,

"P" is the electric power and "V" is the voltage and "R" is the resistance

Substituting the given values we get,

$1700 = \frac{120^2}{R}\\\\1700 = \frac{14400}{R}\\\\R = \frac{14400}{1700}\\\\R = \frac{144}{17}\\\\R = 8.47 \approx 8.5$

Thus resistance in machine is 8.5 ohms

Sholpan [36]

The net force on the student is A) -294 N

Explanation:

Neglecting air resistance, there is only one force acting on the student: the force of gravity, which is given by

$F=mg$

where

m is the mass of the student

g is the acceleration of gravity

In this problem, we have:

m = 30 kg is the mass of the student

$g=-9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity, where the negative sign means the direction is downward

Substituting, we find the force of gravity on the student:

$F=(30)(-9.8)=-294 N$

And since this is the only force acting on the student, it is also the net force on him.

What are the two factors that affect the period of a pendulum?

klemol [59]

The two factors that affect the period of a pendulum are the length of the string and the distance in which the pendulum falls.

Hope this helps! I would greatly appreciate a brainliest! :)

How much current will pass through a 12.5 ohm resistor when it is connected to ta 115 volt source of electrical potential?

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

9.2 amperes

Explanation:

Ohm's law states that the voltage V across a conductor of resistance R is given by $V = R I$

Here, voltage V is proportional to the current I.

For voltage, unit is volts (V)

For current, unit is amperes (A)

For resistance, unit is Ohms (Ω)

Put R = 12.5 and V = 115 in V=RI

$115=12.5I\\I=\frac{115}{12.5}\\ =9.2\,\,amperes$

cluponka [151]

final velocity = initial velocity + (acceleration x time) 
3.9 m/s = 0 m/s + (acceleration x 0.11 s)
3.9 m/s / 0.11 s = acceleration
30.45 m/s^2 = acceleration

distance = (initial velocity x time) + 1/2(acceleration)(time^2)
distance (0 m/s x 0.11 s) + 1/2(30.45 m/s^2)(0.11s ^2)
distance = 0.18 m
