A light bulb dissipates 100 Watts of power when it is supplied a voltage of 220 volts.
a) What is the current flowing through this light bulb?
b) What is the resistance of the light bulb?
Given Information:
Power = P = 100 Watts
Voltage = V = 220 Volts
Required Information:
a) Current = I = ?
b) Resistance = R = ?
Answer:
a) Current = I = 0.4545 A
b) Resistance = R = 484 Ω
Explanation:
According to the Ohm’s law, the power dissipated in the light bulb is given by
[tex]P = VI[/tex]
Where V is the voltage across the light bulb, I is the current flowing through the light bulb and P is the power dissipated in the light bulb.
Re-arranging the above equation for current I yields,
[tex]I = \frac{P}{V} \\\\I = \frac{100}{220} \\\\I = 0.4545 \: A \\\\[/tex]
Therefore, 0.4545 A current is flowing through the light bulb.
According to the Ohm’s law, the voltage across the light bulb is given by
[tex]V = IR[/tex]
Where V is the voltage across the light bulb, I is the current flowing through the light bulb and R is the resistance of the light bulb.
Re-arranging the above equation for resistance R yields,
[tex]R = \frac{V}{I} \\\\R = \frac{220}{0.4545} \\\\R = 484 \: \Omega[/tex]
Therefore, the resistance of the bulb is 484 Ω

Explanation:
Arm OA rotates counterclockwise with a constant angular velocity of ω = 5 rad/s. As the arm passes the horizontal position, a 6 kg ball is placed at the end of the arm. As the arm moves upward, the ball begins to roll, with negligible rolling resistance, towards the pivot O. It is noted that at θ = 30 ◦ , the ball is 0.9 meters from the pivot and moving towards O along the length of the arm. The ball moves with a speed of 0.4 m/s along the bar. What is the normal force that the arm applies to the ball at this instant? Please, indicate which principle you are applying and explain why.
Answer:
26.92 N
Explanation:
The normal reaction of the ball is due to two force component acting on it.
The normal reaction as a result of the weight of the ballThe normal reaction due to the component of the acceleration of the ball with the rod.However ; the acceleration is in polar coordinate which is given by the relation:
[tex]a^ { ^ \to} = (r- r \omega^2) \hat {e_r} + ( r \theta + 2 r \omega ) \hat {e_ \theta}[/tex]
[tex]a_{\theta} = r \theta + 2 r \omega[/tex]
Given that :
ω = 5 rad/s
mass m = 6 kg
θ = 30 ◦
r = 0.9 m
speed v = 0.4 m/s
[tex]a_{\theta} = 0 + 2(-0.4)*5[/tex]
[tex]a_{\theta}= -4 \ m/s[/tex]
The normal force reaction (N) that the arm applies to the ball at this instant is :
N = mg cos θ + [tex]ma_{\theta}[/tex]
N = (6 × 9.8× cos 30) + (6 ×(-4))
N = 26.92 N
Consider a circular vertical loop-the-loop on a roller coaster. A car coasts without power around the loop. Determine the difference between the normal force exerted by the car on a passenger with a mass of mm at the top of the loop and the normal force exerted by the car on her at the bottom of the loop. Express your answer in terms of mmm and the acceleration due to gravity ggg.
Answer:
Explanation:
Let v₁ and v₂ be velocities at lowest and topmost position . Let r be the radius of the circle .
Let N₁ and N₂ be the normal reaction force .
At the top position
centripetal force = N₂ + mg ; so
N₂ + mg = m v₂² / r
At the bottom position
centripetal force = N₁ - mg ; so
N₁ - mg = m v₁² / r
subtracting these two equations
N₁ - mg - N₂ - mg = m v₁² / r - m v₂² / r
N₁ - N₂ - 2mg = 1/r (m v₁² - m v₂² )
N₁ - N₂ - 2mg = 1/r x mg x 2r ( loss of potential energy = gain of kinetic energy )
N₁ - N₂ = 2mg + 2mg
= 4 mg .
How are the elements in the same row similar
Answer:
All elements in a row have the same number of electron shells. Each next element in a period has one more proton and is less metallic than its predecessor. Arranged this way, groups of elements in the same column have similar chemical and physical properties, reflecting the periodic law.
To understand thermal linear expansion in solid materials. Most materials expand when their temperatures increase. Such thermal expansion, which is explained by the increase in the average distance between the constituent molecules, plays an important role in engineering. In fact, as the temperature increases or decreases, the changes in the dimensions of various parts of bridges, machines, etc., may be significant enough to cause trouble if not taken into account. That is why power lines are always sagging and parts of metal bridges fit loosely together, allowing for some movement. It turns out that for relatively small changes in temperature, the linear dimensions change in direct proportion to the temperature.
For instance, if a rod has length L0 at a certain temperature T0 and length L at a higher temperature T, then the change in length of the rod is proportional to the change in temperature and to the initial length of the rod: L - L0 = αL0(T - T0),
or
ΔL = αL0ΔT.
Here, α is a constant called the coefficient of linear expansion; its value depends on the material. A large value of α means that the material expands substantially as the temperature increases; smaller values of α indicate that the material tends to retain its dimensions. For instance, quartz does not expand much; aluminum expands a lot. The value of α for aluminum is about 60 times that of quartz!
Questions:
A) Compared to its length in the spring, by what amount ΔLwinter does the length of the bridge decrease during the Teharian winter when the temperature hovers around -150°C?
B) Compared to its length in the spring, by what amount ΔLsummer does the length of the bridge increase during the Teharian summer when the temperature hovers around 700°C?

If Jim could drive a Jetson's flying car at a constant speed of 440 km/hr across oceans and space, approximately how long (in millions of years, in 106 years) would he take to drive to a nearby star that is 12.0 light-years away? Use 9.461 × 1012 km/light-year and 8766 hours per year (365.25 days).
Answer:
t = 2.94 x 10⁶ years
Explanation:
The equation used in the case of constant speed is:
s = vt
t = s/v
where,
s = distance = 12 light years
s = (12 light years)(9.461 x 10¹² km/light year) = 113.532 x 10¹² km
v = speed = 440 km/hr
t = time passed = ?
Therefore,
t = (113.532 x 10¹² km)/(440 km/hr)
t = 2.58 x 10¹¹ hr
Now, converting it to years:
t = (2.58 x 10¹¹ hr)(1 year/8766 hr)
t = 2.94 x 10⁶ years

What must x be so that the handle end of the bat remains at rest as the bat begins to move? (Hint: Consider the motion of the center of mass and the rotation about the center of mass. Find x so that these two motions combine to give v=0 for the end of the bat just after the collision. Also, note that integration of equation ∑τ⃗ =dL⃗ dt gives ΔL=∫t1t2(∑τ)dt. )
Complete Question
The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image
Answer:
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the bat is [tex]m_b = 0.800 \ kg[/tex]
The bat length is [tex]L_b = 0.900 \ m[/tex]
The distance of the bat's center of mass to the handle end is [tex]z_c = 0.600 \ m[/tex]
The moment of inertia of the bat is [tex]I = 0.0530 \ kg \cdot m^2[/tex]
The objective of the solution is to find x which is the distance from the handle of the bat to the point where the baseball hit the bat
Generally the velocity change at the end of the bat is mathematically represented as
[tex]\Delta v_e = \Delta v_c - \Delta w* z_c[/tex]
Where [tex]\Delta v_c[/tex] is the velocity change at the center of the bat which is mathematically represented as
[tex]\Delta v_c = \frac{Impulse}{m_b }[/tex]
We are told that the impulse is J so
[tex]\Delta v_c = \frac{J}{m_b }[/tex]
And [tex]\Delta w[/tex] is the change in angular velocity which is mathematically represented as
[tex]\Delta w = \frac{J (z -z_c)}{I}[/tex]
Now we have that
[tex]\Delta v_e = \frac{J}{m_b } - [\frac{J (x- z_c)}{I} ] * z_c[/tex]
Before a swing when the bat is at rest the velocity change a the end of the bat handle is zero and the impulse will be 1
So
[tex]0 = \frac{1}{m_b } - [\frac{J (x- z_c)}{I} ] * z_c[/tex]
=> [tex]x = \frac{I}{m_b z_c} + m_b[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]x = \frac{0.530}{0.800 * 0.600} + 0.600[/tex]
[tex]x = 0.710 \ m[/tex]
A steam engine takes in superheated steam at 270 °C and discharges condensed steam from its cylinder at 50 °C. The engine has an efficiency of 30%, and taken in 50 kJ from the hot steam per cycle. If a Carnot engine takes in the same amount of heat per cycle and operates at these temperatures, the work it can turn into is most likely to be:a) 15 kJ. b) 20 kJ. c) 10 kJ. d) 50 kJ.
Answer:
b) 20 kJ
Explanation:
Efficiency of carnot engine = (T₁ - T₂ ) / T₁ Where T₁ is temperature of hot source and T₂ is temperature of sink .
T₁ = 270 + 273 = 543K
T₂ = 50 + 273 = 323 K
Putting the given values of temperatures
efficiency = (543 - 323) / 543
= .405
heat input = 50 KJ
efficiency = output work / input heat energy
.405 = output work / 50
output work = 20.25 KJ.
= 20 KJ .

Explanation:
IMPORTANT: The solution to the question (a) and (b) that is (a) Draw a neat snapshot mode labeled vector picture of the wave. (b) Draw a neat movie mode labeled vector picture of the wave is there in the ATTACHED FILE/PICTURE.
It is also worthy of note to know that in anything Electromagnetic wave, the magnetic field, the Electric Field and their direction of propagation are perpendicular to each other.
Therefore, knowing the fact above we can say that in yellow light, the magnetic field is in the y-direction and the Electric Field is in the z-direction.
Hence, the solution to option C is given below;
(C).If the wave were to represent blue light instead of yellow light, picture (a) will remain the same because both light are Electromagnetic wave, although the wavelength will have to change. Picture (b) will also remain the same because they are both Electromagnetic waves and possess similar properties.
6. The two ends of an iron rod are maintained at different temperatures. The amount of heat thatflows through the rod by conduction during a given time interval does notdepend uponA) the length of the iron rod.B) the thermal conductivity of iron.C) the temperature difference between the ends of the rod.D) the mass of the iron rod.E) the duration of the time interval.Ans: DDifficulty: MediumSectionDef: Section 13-27. The ends of a cylindrical steel rod are maintained at two different temperatures. The rod conducts heat from one end to the other at a rate of 10 cal/s. At what rate would a steel rod twiceas long and twice the diameter conduct heat between the same two temperatures
Answer:
20cal/s
Explanation:
Question:
There are two questions. The first one has been answered:
From the formular, Power = Q/t = (kA∆T)/l
the amount heat depends on the duration of time interval, length of the iron rod, the thermal conductivity of iron and the temperature difference between the ends of the rod.
The amount of heat that flows through the rod by conduction during a given time interval does not depend upon the mass of the iron rod (D).
Second question:
The ends of a cylindrical steel rod are maintained at two different temperatures. The rod conducts heat from one end to the other at a rate of 10 cal/s. At what rate would a steel rod twice as long and twice the diameter conduct heat between the same two temperatures?
Solution:
Power = 10cal/s
Power = energy per unit time = Q/t
Where Q = energy
Power = (kA∆T)/l
k = thermal conductivity of iron
A = area
Area = πr^2
r = radius
Diameter = d = 2r
r = d/2
Area = (πd^2)/4
Length = l
∆T = change in temperature
10 = (kA∆T)/l
For a steel rod with length doubled and diameter doubled:
Let Length (L) = 2l
Diameter (D)= 2d
Area = π [(2d)^2]/4 = (π4d^2)/4
Area = 4(πd^2)/4
Using the formula Power = (kA∆T)/l, insert the new values for A and l
Power = [k × 4(πd^2)/4 × ∆T]/2l
Power = [4k((πd^2)/4) ∆T]/2l
Power = [(4/2)×k((πd^2)/4) ∆T]/l
Power = [2k(A) ×∆T]/l = 2(kA∆T)/l
Power of a steel that has its length doubled and diameter doubled = 2(kA∆T)/l
Recall initial Power = (kA∆T)/l = 10cal/s
And ∆T is the same
2[(kA∆T)/l] = 2 × 10
Power of a steel that has its length doubled and diameter doubled = 20cal/s

53. When you turn on your CD player, the turntable accelerates from zero to 41.8 rad/s in
3.0 s. What is the angular acceleration?
or
Answer:
The angular acceleration of CD player is [tex]13.93\ rad/s^2[/tex].
Explanation:
Initial angular speed of a CD player is 0 and final angular speed is 41.8 rad/s. Time to change the angular speed is 3 s.
It is required to find the angular acceleration. The change in angular speed of the CD player divided by time taken is called its angular acceleration. It can be given by :
[tex]a=\dfrac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{41.8-0}{3}\\\\a=13.94\ rad/s^2[/tex]
So, the angular acceleration of CD player is [tex]13.93\ rad/s^2[/tex].
A Texas cockroach of mass 0.157 kg runs counterclockwise around the rim of a lazy Susan (a circular disk mounted on a vertical axle) that has a radius 14.9 cm, rotational inertia 5.92 x 10-3 kg·m2, and frictionless bearings. The cockroach's speed (relative to the ground) is 2.92 m/s, and the lazy Susan turns clockwise with angular velocity ω0 = 3.89 rad/s. The cockroach finds a bread crumb on the rim and, of course, stops. (a) What is the angular speed of the lazy Susan after the cockroach stops? (b) Is mechanical energy conserved as it stops?
Answer:
-7.23 rad/s
Explanation:
Given that
Mass of the cockroach, m = 0.157 kg
Radius of the disk, r = 14.9 cm = 0.149 m
Rotational Inertia, I = 5.92*10^-3 kgm²
Speed of the cockroach, v = 2.92 m/s
Angular velocity of the rim, w = 3.89 rad/s
The initial angular momentum of rim is
Iw = 5.92*10^-3 * 3.89
Iw = 2.3*10^-2 kgm²/s
The initial angular momentum of cockroach about the axle of the disk is
L = -mvr
L = -0.157 * 2.92 * 0.149
L = -0.068 kgm²/s
This means that we can get the initial angular momentum of the system by summing both together
2.3*10^-2 + -0.068
L' = -0.045 kgm²/s
After the cockroach stops, the total inertia of the spinning disk is
I(f) = I + mr²
I(f) = 5.92*10^-3 + 0.157 * 0.149²
I(f) = 5.92*10^-3 + 3.49*10^-3
I(f) = 9.41*10^-3 kgm²
Final angular momentum of the disk is
L'' = I(f).w(f)
L''= 9.41*10^-3w(f)
Using the conservation of total angular momentum, we have
-0.068 = 9.41*10^-3w(f) + 0
w(f) = -0.068 / 9.41*10^-3
w(f) = -7.23 rad/s
Therefore, the speed of the lazy Susan after the cockroach stops is -7.23 and is directed in the opposite direction of the initial lazy Susan angular speed
b)
The mechanical energy of the cockroach is not converted as it stops

The center of mass of the two block system is moving with a velocity of ____ m/s. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. Assume Block A is moving in the positive direction.
Answer:
The center of mass move with the velocity of -3.487 m/s.
Explanation:
Given values of block A.
Mass of block A, (M1) = 4 kg
Speed of block A, (V1) = 2 m/s
Given values of block B.
Mass of block B, (M2) = 8.4 kg
Speed of block B, (V2) = -6.1 m/s
Below is the formula to find the velocity of center of mass.
[tex]Velocity = \frac{M1V1 + M2V2}{M1 + M2} \\[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{4 \times 2 + 8.4 \times (-6.1) }{4 + 8.4} \\[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{- 43.24}{12.4}\\[/tex]
[tex]= - 3.487 m/s[/tex]

A 0.009 kg bullet fired through a door enters at 803 m/s and leaves at 617 m/s. If the door material is known to exert an average resistive force of 5620 N on bullets of this type at usual speeds, find the thickness of the door.
Answer:
The thickness of the door is 0.4230 m
Explanation:
Given;
mass of bullet, m = 0.009 kg
initial velocity of the bullet, u = 803 m/s
final velocity of the bullet, v = 617 m/s
average resistive force of the door on the bullet, F = 5620 N
Apply Newton's second law of motion;
Force exerted by the door on the bullet = Force of the moving bullet
F = ma
where;
F is applied force
m is mass
a is acceleration
Also, Force exerted by the door on the bullet = Force of the moving bullet
[tex]F =ma, \ But \ a =\frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{u-v}{t} \\\\F = \frac{m(u-v)}{t}[/tex]
where;
v is the final velocity of the bullet
u is initial velocity of the bullet
t is time
We need to calculate the time spent by the bullet before it passes through the door.
[tex]t = \frac{m(u-v)}{F} \\\\t = \frac{0.009(803-617)}{5620} = 0.0002979 \ s[/tex]
Distance traveled by the bullet within this time period = thickness of the door
This distance is equivalent to the product of average velocity and time
[tex]S = (\frac{u+v}{2}) t[/tex]
where;
s is the distance traveled
[tex]S = (\frac{u+v}{2}) t\\\\S = (\frac{803+617}{2}) 0.0002979\\\\S = 0.4230 \ m[/tex]
Therefore, the thickness of the door is 0.4230 m

Which term BEST describes the movement of air from the ocean toward the land in the daytime? (AKS 4b DOK 1) *
1 point
Sea breeze
Land Breeze
Valley Breeze
Current Breeze
Answer:
Option A, Sea Breeze
Explanation:
Ssea breeze is a wind that blows from the ocean or any water body to the nearby land mass. This breeze is cold as compared to the air on land. The water in water bodies has high specific heat capacity and hence takes longer time to cool as compared to the surrounding objects. The warmer air over the land rises upward thereby reducing the pressure on land and hence the sea breeze starts flowing from region of high pressure (i.e above the water body) towards the low pressure region that is the land.
Hence, option A is correct
Electric fields are MOST associated with ________.
A long solid conducting cylinder with radius a = 12 cm carries current I1 = 5 A going into the page. This current is distributed uniformly over the cross section of the cylinder. A cylindrical shell with radius b = 21 cm is concentric with the solid cylinder and carries a current I2 = 3 A coming out of the page. 1)Calculate the y component of the magnetic field By at point P, which lies on the x axis a distance r = 41 cm from the center of the cylinders.
Answer:
Explanation:
We shall use Ampere's circuital law to find magnetic field at required point.
The point is outside the circumference of two given wires so whole current will be accounted for .

A resistor and a capacitor are connected in series across an ideal battery having a constant voltage across its terminals. Long after contact is made with the battery (a) the voltage across the capacitor is A) equal to the battery's terminal voltage. B) less than the battery's terminal voltage, but greater than zero. C) zero. (b) the voltage across the resistor is A) equal to the battery's terminal voltage. B) less than the battery's terminal voltage, but greater than zero. C) zero.
Answer:
A) equal to the battery's terminal voltage.
Explanation:
When the capacitor is fully charged after long hours of charging , its potential becomes equal to the emf of the battery and its polarity is opposite to that of battery . Hence net emf becomes equal . The capacitor itself becomes a battery which is connected in the circuit with opposite polarity . This results in the net emf and current becoming zero . There is no charging current when the capacitor is fully charged .

Explanation:
Given that :
mass of the block m = 200.0 g = 200 × 10⁻³ kg
the horizontal spring constant k = 4500.0 N/m
position of the block (distance x) = 4.00 cm = 0.04 m
To determine the speed the block will be traveling when it leaves the spring; we applying the work done on the spring as it is stretched (or compressed) with the kinetic energy.
i.e [tex]\frac{1}{2} kx^2 = \frac{1}{2} mv^2[/tex]
[tex]kx^2 = mv^2[/tex]
[tex]4500* 0.04^2 = 200*10^{-3} *v^2[/tex]
[tex]7.2 =200*10^{-3}*v^{2}[/tex]
[tex]v^{2} =\frac{7.2}{200*10^{-3}}[/tex]
[tex]v =\sqrt{\frac{7.2}{200*10^{-3}}}[/tex]
v = 6 m/s
Hence,the speed the block will be traveling when it leaves the spring is 6 m/s
A student performs an experiment that involves the motion of a pendulum. The student attaches one end of a string to an object of mass M and secures the other end of the string so that the object is at rest as it hangs from the string. When the student raises the object to a height above its lowest point and releases it from rest, the object undergoes simple harmonic motion. As the student collects data about the time it takes for the pendulum to undergo one oscillation, the student observes that the time for one swing significantly changes after each oscillation. The student wants to conduct the experiment a second time. Which two of the following procedures should the student consider when conducting the second experiment?
a) Make sure that the length of the string is not too long.
b) Make sure that the mass of the pendulum is not too large.
c) Make sure that the difference in height between the pendulum's release position and rest position is not too large.
d) Make sure that the experiment is conducted in an environment that has minimal wind resistance.
Answer:
the answers the correct one is cη
Explanation:
In this simple pendulum experiment the student observes a significant change in time between each period. This occurs since an approximation used is that the sine of the angle is small, so
sin θ = θ
with this approach the equation will be surveyed
d² θ / dt² = - g / L sin θ
It is reduced to
d² θ / dt² = - g / L θ
in which the time for each oscillation is constant, for this approximation the angle must be less than 10º so that the difference between the sine and the angles is less than 1%
The angle is related to the height of the pendulum
sin θ = h / L
h = L sin θ.
Therefore the student must be careful that the height is small.
When reviewing the answers the correct one is cη
Considering the approximation of simple harmonic motion, the correct option is:
(c) Make sure that the difference in height between the pendulum's release position and rest position is not too large.
Simple Harmonic MotionAccording to Newton's second law in case of rotational motion, we have;
[tex]\tau = I \alpha[/tex]
Applying this, in the case of a simple pendulum, we get;
[tex]-mg\,sin\,\theta =mL^2 \,\frac{d^2 \theta}{dt^2}[/tex]
On, rearranging the above equation, we get;
[tex]mL^2 \,\frac{d^2 \theta}{dt^2} + mg\,sin\,\theta=0\\\\\implies \frac{d^2 \theta}{dt^2} +\frac{g}{L} sin \,\theta=0[/tex]
Now, if angular displacement is very small, i.e.; the bob of the pendulum is only raised slightly.
Then, [tex]sin\, \theta \approx \theta[/tex]
[tex]\implies \frac{d^2 \theta}{dt^2} +\frac{g}{L} \,\theta=0[/tex]
This is now in the form of the equation of a simple harmonic motion.
[tex]\frac{d^2 \theta}{dt^2} +\omega^2 \,\theta=0[/tex]
Comparing both these equations, we can say that;
[tex]\omega = \sqrt{\frac{g}{L}}[/tex]
[tex]T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}[/tex]
This relation for the time period can only be obtained if the angular displacement is very less.
So, the correct option is;
Option (c): Make sure that the difference in height between the pendulum's release position and rest position is not too large.

what do hydroelectric plants use to generate electrical energy?
Answer:
A. falling water
Explanation:
I got it right on Edgenuity. Good luck on your quiz.
In hydroelectric plants, water falls on turbine and makes it rotate. In generator, this mechanical energy transforms into electrical energy.
What is hydroelectric power?Hydroelectric power is generated by turbines that turn the potential energy of falling or swiftly flowing water into mechanical energy, which is then used to power generators. The most popular renewable energy source in the early 21st century was hydroelectricity, which in 2019 accounted for more than 18% of the world's total power producing capacity.
Water is gathered or stored at a higher elevation during the production of hydroelectric power and then transported through substantial pipes or tunnels (penstocks) to a lower elevation; the difference between these two elevations is referred to as the head. The falling water turns turbines as it nears the bottom of the pipelines. In turn, the turbines power generators, which transfer the mechanical energy of the turbines into electricity.
