Answer:
a)3000ohm
b)4.44mA
Explanation:
a) we were given a Nine tree lights connected inparallel across 120-V potential difference, since the resistor are in parallel we use the expresion below
1/R(total)= 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + 1/R₃ + 1/R₃ +.... 1/R₉
But according to ohm'law which can be expressed below
V=IR
R=V/I
R(total)= 120/0.36
= 333.33ohm
1/R(total)= 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + 1/R₃ + 1/R₃ +.... 1/R₉
R₁=R₂ =R₃ =R₄= R₅=R₆=R₇=R₈=R₉
1/R(total)=9/R
1/333.33= 9/R
R= 3000ohm
Therefore, the resistance is 3000ohm
b)the bulbs were connected in series here, then for series connection we use below expression
R₁=R₂ =R₃ =R₄= R₅=R₆=R₇=R₈=R₉
R(total)=9R
= 9*3000
=27000ohm
I=VR
I=V/R
I= 120/27000
= 4.44*10⁻³A
4.44mA
Therefore, the current is 4.4mA

Two football teams, the Raiders and the 49ers are engaged in a tug-of-war. The Raiders are pulling with a force of 5000N. Which of the following is an accurate statement?
A. The tension in the rope depends on whether or not the teams are in equilibrium.
B. The 49ers are pulling with a force of more than 5000N because of course they’d be winning.
C. The 49ers are pulling with a force of 5000N.
D. The tension in the rope is 10,000N.
E. None of these statements are true.
Answer:
E. None of these statements are true.
Explanation:
We can't say the exact or approximate amount of tension on the rope, since we do know for sure from the statement who is winning.
for A, the tension on the rope does not depend on if both teams pull are in equilibrium.
for B, the 49ers would be pulling with a force more than 5000 N, if they were winning. The problem is that we can't say with all confidence that they'd be winning.
for C, we don't know how much tension exists on the rope, and its direction, so we can't work out how much tension the 49ers are pulling the rope with.
for D, just as for C above, we can't work out how much tension there is on the rope, since we do not know how much force the 49ers are pulling with.
we go with option E.
A fireworks rocket is launched vertically upward at 40 m/s. At the peak of its trajectory, it explodes into two equal-mass fragments. One reaches the ground t1 = 2.71s after the explosion.When does the second reach the ground?t=?
Answer:
6.13 seconds
Explanation:
At the peak of the fireworks trajectory, the velocity of the firework would be zero. Using equation of motion, we have:
v² = u² + 2gh
0 = 40² - (2)(9.81)(h)
0 = 1600 - 19.62h
19.62h = 1600
h = 1600/19.62
h = 81.55 m
Now during the process of explosion, the two parts gained equal vertical momentum but in opposite directions.
We are told the first piece lands in a time of 2.71 s,
Using 3rd equation of motion, we have;
h = ut + ½gt²
81.55 = u(2.71) + ½(9.81 × 2.71²)
81.55 = 2.71u + 36.0228
2.71u = 81.55 - 36.0228
2.71u = 45.5272
u = 45.5272/2.71
u = 16.8 m/s
The time it takes a projectile to return back to its original launch point assuming the projectile was launched
vertically with speed u = 16.8 m/s is;
t = 2u/g
t = (2 × 16.8)/9.81
t = 3.43 s
Thus total time it takes the second mass to reach the ground = 3.43 + 2.71 = 6.13 seconds

Astronomers discover an exoplanet (a planet of a star other than the Sun) that has an orbital period of 3.75
Earth years in its circular orbit around its sun, which is a star with a measured mass of 3.23×1030kg
. Find the radius of the exoplanet's orbit.
Answer:
[tex]r=4.24\times 10^{11}\ m[/tex]
Explanation:
Given that,
Orbital time period, T = 3.75 earth years
Mass of star, [tex]m=3.23\times 10^{30}\ kg[/tex]
We need to find the radius of the exoplanet's orbit. It is a concept of Kepler's third law of motion i.e.
[tex]T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2}{GM}r^3[/tex]
r is the radius of the exoplanet's orbit.
Solving for r we get :
[tex]r=(\dfrac{T^2GM}{4\pi^2})^{1/3}[/tex]
We know that, [tex]1\ \text{earth year}=3.154\times 10^7\ \text{s}[/tex]
So,
[tex]r=(\dfrac{(3.75\times 3.154\times 10^7)^2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 3.23\times 10^{30}}{4\pi^2})^{1/3}\\\\r=4.24\times 10^{11}\ m[/tex]
So, the radius of the exoplanet's orbit is [tex]4.24\times 10^{11}\ m[/tex].
If you wanted to make your own lenses for a telescope, what features of a lens do you think would affect the images that you can see
Answer:
Therefore the characteristics to be found are:
* the focal length must be large and the focal length of the eyepiece must be small
* The diameter of the objective lens should be as large as possible, to be able to collect small without need from light
* The system must be configured to the far sight tip,
Explanation:
The length of the telescope is
L = f_ocular + f_objetive
the magnification of the telescope is
m = - f_objective / f_ocular
These are the two equations that describe the behavior of the telescope. Therefore the characteristics to be found are:
* the focal length must be large and the focal length of the eyepiece must be small
* The diameter of the objective lens should be as large as possible, to be able to collect small without need from light
* The system must be configured to the far sight tip,
Two wires carry current I1 = 73 A and I2 = 31 A in the opposite directions parallel to the x-axis at y1 = 3 cm and y2 = 13 cm. Where on the y-axis (in cm) is the magnetic field zero?
Answer:
The position on the y-axis where the magnetic field is zero is at y = 10 cm
Explanation:
The magnetic field B due to a long straight wire carrying a current, i at a distance R from the wire is given by
B = μ₀i/2πR
Now, let y be the point where the magnetic fields of both wires are equal.
So, the magnetic field due to wire 1 carrying current i₁ = 73 A is
B₁ = μ₀i₁/2π(y - 3) and
the magnetic field due to wire 2 carrying current i₂ = 31 A is
B₂ = μ₀i₂/2π(13 - y)
At the point where the magnetic field is zero, B₁ = B₂. So,
μ₀i₁/2π(y - 3) = μ₀i₂/2π(13 - y)
cancelling out μ₀ and 2π, we have
i₁/(x - y) = i₂/(13 - y)
cross-multiplying, we have
(13 - y)i₁ = (y - 3)i₂
Substituting the values of i₁ and i₂, we have
(13 - y)73 = (y - 3)31
949 - 73y = 31y - 93
Collecting like terms, we have
949 + 93 = 73y + 31y
1042 = 104y
dividing through by 104, we have
y = 1042/104
y = 10.02 cm
y ≅ 10 cm
So, the position on the y-axis where the magnetic field is zero is at y = 10 cm
The main purpose of a written report may be to _____. A. revise a hypothesis B. summarize other scientists' results C. design a procedure for an experiment D. analyze data without drawing conclusions
PLZZZ HURRY TIMED MARK BRAINLIEST
Answer:
analyze data without drawing conclusions
Explanation:
Research reports are written in order to communicate clearly, information obtained primarily from research and analysis of data.
Typical reports of scientific research endeavours are written in such a way that they convey the research process succinctly without excessive extraneous information. A report is typically made up of; summary of the contents, introduction/ background, methods, results, discussion, conclusion and recommendations.
Hence a report does not really make inferences from the research findings.
Equipotential lines are lines with equal electric potential (for example, all the points with an electric potential of 5.0 V). Using the plot tool that comes with voltmeter (pencil icon) make two equipotential lines at r = 0.5 m and r = 1.5 m. Enable electric field vectors in the simulation. Put an electric field sensor at different points on the equipotential line and note the direction of the electric field vector. What can you conclude about the direction of the electric field vector in relation to the equipotential lines?
The direction for each field vector is perpendicular to equipotential lines.
Take a snapshot of the simulation showing equipotential lines and paste to a word document.

The target variable is the speed of light v in the glass, which you can determine from the index of refraction n of the glass. Which equations will you use to find n and v?
Answer:
n= speed of light in vacuum/ speed of light in the other medium.
Explanation:
If light is moving from medium 1 into medium 2 where medium 1 is vacuum (approximated to mean air) and we are required to find the velocity of light; then we can confidently write;
n= speed of light in vacuum/ speed of light in the other medium.
Hence;
n= c/v
Where;
n= refractive index of the material
c= speed of light in vacuum
v = speed of light in another medium.
Note that the refractive index is the amount by which a transparent medium decreases the speed of light.
A semi-circular loop consisting of one turn of wire is place in the x-y plane. A constant magnetic field B=1.7T points along the negative z-axis(into the page), and a current I=0.7A flows counterclockwisefrom the positive z-axis. The net magnetic force on the circular section of the loop points in what direction? What is the net magnetice force on the circular section of the loop?
Answer:
The direction of net magnetic force on the circular section of the loop is in the positive y-axis
The net magnetic force on the circular section of the loop is 3.74 N
Explanation:
The magnetic field strength [tex]B[/tex] = 1.7 T
the current [tex]I[/tex] = 0.7 A
The diameter of the loop = 2 m
the length of the circular section of the semi-circular loop [tex]l[/tex] = πd/2
==> [tex]l[/tex] = (3.142 x 2)/2 = 3.142 m
The force on the semi-circular is given as
F = [tex]BIl[/tex] sin ∅
but the loop is perpendicular to the field, therefore
sin ∅ = sin 90° = 1
F = 1.7 x 0.7 x 3.142 x 1 = 3.74 N
The right hand rule states that "if the fingers of the right hand are held parallel to each other in the direction of the magnetic field, and the thumb is held at right angle to the other fingers in the direction of the flow of current. The palm will push in the direction of the magnetic force on the conductor".
According to the right hand rule, the direction of net magnetic force on the circular section of the loop is in the positive y-axis
As the frequency of the ac voltage across a capacitor approaches zero, the capacitive reactance of that capacitor:_______.
a. approaches zero.
b. approaches infinity.
c. approaches unity.
d. none of the above.
Answer:
b. approaches infinity
Explanation:
Because Capacitive reactance is given as Xc = 1/ωC
So we can see that the value of capacitive reactance and therefore its overall impedance (in Ohms) decreases to zero as the frequency increases acting like a short circuit.
Same as the frequency approaches zero or DC, the capacitors reactance increases to infinity, acting like an open circuit which is why capacitors block DC
A car moving at 36 m/s passes a stationary police car whose siren has a frequency of 500 Hz. What is the change in the frequency (in Hz) heard by an observer in the moving car as he passes the police car? (The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s.)
Answer:
Change in the frequency (in Hz) = 104.96 Hz
Explanation:
Given:
Speed of sound in air (v) = 343 m/s
Speed of car (v1) 36 m/s
Frequency(f) = 500 Hz
Find:
Change in the frequency (in Hz)
Computation:
Frequency hear by the observer(before)(f1) = [f(v+v1)] / v
Frequency hear by the observer(f1) = [500(343+36)] / 343
Frequency hear by the observer(f1) = 552.48 Hz
Frequency hear by the observer(after)(f2) = [f(v-v1)] / v
Frequency hear by the observer(f2) = [500(343-36)] / 343
Frequency hear by the observer(f2) = 447.52 Hz
Change in the frequency (in Hz) = f1 - f2
Change in the frequency (in Hz) = 552.48 Hz - 447.52 Hz
Change in the frequency (in Hz) = 104.96 Hz
A city of Punjab has a 15 percent chance of wet weather on any given day. What is the probability that it will take a week for it three wet weather on 3 separate days? Also find its Standard Deviation
Answer:
so the probability will be = 0.062
Standard deviation = 0.8925
Explanation:
The probability of rain = 15% = 15/100= 0.15
and the probability of no rain=q = 1-p= 1-0.15= 0.85
The number of trials = 7
so the probability will be
7C3 * ( 0.15)^3 (0.85)^4= 35* 0.003375 * 0.52200 =0.06166= 0.062
Taking this as binomial as the p and q are constant and also the trials are independent .
For a binomial distribution
Standard deviation = npq= 0.15 *0.85 *7= 0.8925
The advantage of a hydraulic lever is A : it transforms a small force acting over a large distance into a large force acting over a small distance. B : it transforms a small force acting over a small distance into a large force acting over a large distance. C : it allows you to exert a larger force with less work. D : it transforms a large force acting over a large distance into a small force acting over a small distance. E : it transforms a large force acting over a small distance into a small force acting over a large distance.
Answer:
A) it transforms a small force acting over a large distance into a large force acting over a small distance.
Explanation:
The hydraulic lever works based on Pascal's law of transmission of pressure through a fluid. In the hydraulic lever, the pressure transmitted is the same.
Pressure transmitted P = F/A
where F is the force applied
and A is the area over which the force is applied.
This pressure can be manipulated on the input end as a small force applied over a small area, and then be transmitted to the output end as a large force over a large area.
F/A = f/a
where the left side of the equation is for the output, and the right side is for the input.
The volume of the displaced fluid will be the same on both ends of the hydraulic lever. Since we know that
volume V = (area A) x (distance d)
this means that the the piston on the input smaller area of the hydraulic lever will travel a greater distance, while the piston on the larger output area of the lever will travel a small distance.
From all these, we can see that the advantage of a hydraulic lever is that it transforms a small force acting over a large distance into a large force acting over a small distance.
An electrostatic paint sprayer contains a metal sphere at an electric potential of 25.0 kV with respect to an electrically grounded object. Positively charged paint droplets are repelled away from the paint sprayer's positively charged sphere and towards the grounded object. What charge must a 0.168-mg drop of paint have so that it will arrive at the object with a speed of 18.8 m/s
Answer:
The charge is [tex]Q = 2.177 *10^{-9} \ C[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The electric potential is [tex]V = 25.0 \ kV = 25.0 *10^{3}\ V[/tex]
The mass of the drop is [tex]m = 0.168 \ m g = 0.168 *10^{-3} \ g = 0.168 *10^{-6}\ kg[/tex]
The speed is [tex]v = 18.8 \ m/s[/tex]
Generally the charge on the paint drop due to the electric potential which will give it the speed stated in the question is mathematically represented as
[tex]Q = \frac{m v^2 }{ 2 * V }[/tex]
Substituting values
[tex]Q = \frac{0.168 *10^{-6} (18)^2 }{ 2 * 25*10^3 }[/tex]
[tex]Q = 2.177 *10^{-9} \ C[/tex]
Consider a wire of a circular cross-section with a radius of R = 3.17 mm. The magnitude of the current density is modeled as J = cr2 = 9.00 ✕ 106 A/m4 r2. What is the current (in A) through the inner section of the wire from the center to r = 0.5R?
Answer:
The current is [tex]I = 8.9 *10^{-5} \ A[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The radius is [tex]r = 3.17 \ mm = 3.17 *10^{-3} \ m[/tex]
The current density is [tex]J = c\cdot r^2 = 9.00*10^{6} \ A/m^4 \cdot r^2[/tex]
The distance we are considering is [tex]r = 0.5 R = 0.001585[/tex]
Generally current density is mathematically represented as
[tex]J = \frac{I}{A }[/tex]
Where A is the cross-sectional area represented as
[tex]A = \pi r^2[/tex]
=> [tex]J = \frac{I}{\pi r^2 }[/tex]
=> [tex]I = J * (\pi r^2 )[/tex]
Now the change in current per unit length is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]dI = 2 J * \pi r dr[/tex]
Now to obtain the current (in A) through the inner section of the wire from the center to r = 0.5R we integrate dI from the 0 (center) to point 0.5R as follows
[tex]I = 2\pi \int\limits^{0.5 R}_{0} {( 9.0*10^6A/m^4) * r^2 * r} \, dr[/tex]
[tex]I = 2\pi * 9.0*10^{6} \int\limits^{0.001585}_{0} {r^3} \, dr[/tex]
[tex]I = 2\pi *(9.0*10^{6}) [\frac{r^4}{4} ] | \left 0.001585} \atop 0}} \right.[/tex]
[tex]I = 2\pi *(9.0*10^{6}) [ \frac{0.001585^4}{4} ][/tex]
substituting values
[tex]I = 2 * 3.142 * 9.00 *10^6 * [ \frac{0.001585^4}{4} ][/tex]
[tex]I = 8.9 *10^{-5} \ A[/tex]
Light passes from a material with index of refraction 1.3 into one with index of refraction 1.2. Compared to the incident ray, what happens to the refracted ray?
Answer:
It bends away from the normal
Explanation:
From Snell's law of Refraction, when a ray passes from a medium of lower Refractive index to a medium with higher Refractive index, the Refractive ray will bend towards the normal. However, when the ray passes from a medium of higher Refractive index to a medium of lower Refractive index, the Refractive ray will bend away from the normal.
Now, from the question we are told that Light passes from a material with index of refraction 1.3 into one with index of refraction 1.2.
This means from a higher Refractive index to a lower one and from Snell's law as earlier said, the refracted ray will bend away from the normal
The refracted ray is seen to bend away from the normal.
Let us recall that an optically denser medium will have a higher refractive index. This means that the medium with a refractive index of 1.3 is the denser medium and the medium with a refractive index of 1.2 is the less dense medium.
From the statement in the question, we can boldly say that light is travelling from a denser to less dense medium given the values of the refractive index given. When light is travelling from a denser to a less dense medium, the refracted ray bends away from the normal.

Charge of uniform linear density (6.7 nC/m) is distributed along the entire x axis. Determine the magnitude of the electric field on the y axis at y
Thw question is not complete. The complete question is;
Charge of uniform linear density (6.7 nCim) is distributed along the entire x axis. Determine the magnitude of the electric field on the y axis at y = 1.6 m. a. 32 N/C b. 150 NC c 75 N/C d. 49 N/C e. 63 NC
Answer:
Option C: E = 75 N/C
Explanation:
We are given;
Uniform linear density; λ = 6.7 nC/m = 6.7 × 10^(-9) C/m
Distance on the y-axis; d = 1.6 m
Now, the formula for electric field with uniform linear density is given as;
E = λ/(2•π•r•ε_o)
Where;
E is electric field
λ is uniform linear density = 6.7 × 10^(-9) C/m
r is distance = 1.6m
ε_o is a constant = 8.85 × 10^(-12) C²/N.m²
Thus;
E = (6.7 × 10^(-9))/(2π × 1.6 × 8.85 × 10^(-12))
E = 75.31 N/C ≈ 75 N/C

¿Qué resistencia debe ser conectada en paralelo con una de 20 Ω para hacer una
resistencia combinada de 15 Ω?
Answer:
60 Ω
Explanation:
R(com) = 15 Ω
1/R(com) = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 ..... + 1/Rn
1/15 = 1/20 + 1/R2
1/R2 = 1/15 - 1/20
1/R2 = (4 - 3) / 60
1/R2 = 1/60
R2 = 60 Ω
así, la combinada de resistencia necesaria es 60 Ω

The difference between a DC and an AC generator is that
a. the DC generator has one unbroken slip ring.
b. the AC generator has one unbroken slip ring
c. the DC generator has one slip ring splitin two halves.
d. the AC generator has one slip ring split in two halves.
e The DC generator has twounbroken sip rings
Answer:
The AC generator has one unbroken slip ring
Explanation:
In physics, the application of electromagnetic induction can be seen in generators and dynamos. Electromagnetic induction is the process of generating electricity using magnets. It found applications in generators and the types of generator they found application is in AC and DC generator.
An AC generator is also called a Dynamo. A DC generator contains what is called a SPLIT RING fixed to the end of the coil which can be separated and coupled back according to the name "split". An AC generator also called a Dynamo makes use of a SLIP ring which cannot be divided into two. It comes as an entity. The presence of this rings is what differentiates a DC generator from an AC generator.
We can replace split rings with slip rings when converting a DC generator to an AC generator and vice versa.
It can therefore be concluded that the difference between a DC and an AC generator is that the AC generator has one unbroken slip ring.
A 3200-lb car is moving at 64 ft/s down a 30-degree grade when it runs out of fuel. Find its velocity after that if friction exerts a resistive force with magnitude proportional to the square of the speed with k
Answer:
The velocity is 40 ft/sec.
Explanation:
Given that,
Force = 3200 lb
Angle = 30°
Speed = 64 ft/s
The resistive force with magnitude proportional to the square of the speed,
[tex]F_{r}=kv^2[/tex]
Where, k = 1 lb s²/ft²
We need to calculate the velocity
Using balance equation
[tex]F\sin\theta-F_{r}=m\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}[/tex]
Put the value into the formula
[tex]3200\sin 30-kv^2=m\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}[/tex]
Put the value of k
[tex]3200\times\dfrac{1}{2}-v^2=m\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}[/tex]
[tex]1600-v^2=m\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}[/tex]
At terminal velocity [tex]\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}=0[/tex]
So, [tex]1600-v^2=0[/tex]
[tex]v=\sqrt{1600}[/tex]
[tex]v=40\ ft/sec[/tex]
Hence, The velocity is 40 ft/sec.

You stand 17.5 m from a wall holding a softball. You throw the softball at the wall at an angle of 38.5∘ from the ground with an initial speed of 27.5 m/s. At what height above its initial position does the softball hit the wall? Ignore any effects of air resistance.
The ball's horizontal position in the air is
[tex]x=\left(27.5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\cos38.5^\circ t[/tex]
It hits the wall when [tex]x=17.5\,\mathrm m[/tex], which happens at
[tex]17.5\,\mathrm m=\left(27.5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\cos38.5^\circ t\implies t\approx0.813\,\mathrm s[/tex]
Meanwhile, the ball's vertical position is
[tex]y=\left(27.5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin38.5^\circ t-\dfrac g2t^2[/tex]
where [tex]g[/tex] is the acceleration due to gravity, 9.80 m/s^2.
At the time the ball hits the wall, its vertical position (relative to its initial position) is
[tex]y=\left(27.5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin38.5^\circ(0.813\,\mathrm s)-\dfrac g2(0.813\,\mathrm s)^2\approx\boxed{10.7\,\mathrm m}[/tex]
An electron experiences a force of magnitude F when it is 5 cm from a very long, charged wire with linear charge density, lambda. If the charge density is doubled, at what distance from the wire will a proton experience a force of the same magnitude F?
Answer:
The distance of the proton is [tex]r_p =10 \ cm[/tex]
Explanation:
Generally the force experience by the electron is mathematically represented as
[tex]F_e = \frac{q * \lambda_e }{ 2 \pi * \epsilon_o * r_e}[/tex]
Where [tex]\lambda _e[/tex] is the charge density of the charge wire before it is doubled
Also the force experience by the proton is mathematically represented as
[tex]F_p = \frac{q * \lambda_p }{ 2 \pi * \epsilon_o * r_p}[/tex]
Given that the charge density is doubled i.e [tex]\lambda_p = 2 \lambda_e[/tex] and that the the force are equal then
[tex]\frac{q * \lambda_e }{ 2 \pi * \epsilon_o * r_e} = \frac{q * 2 \lambda_e }{ 2 \pi * \epsilon_o * r_p}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{ \lambda_e }{ r_e} = \frac{ 2 \lambda_e }{ r_p}[/tex]
[tex]r_p * \lambda_e =2 \lambda_e * r_e[/tex]
[tex]r_p =2 r_e[/tex]
Now given from the question that [tex]r_e[/tex] the distance of the electron from the charged wire is 5 cm
Then
[tex]r_p =2 (5)[/tex]
[tex]r_p =10 \ cm[/tex]
"A thin film with an index of refraction of 1.50 is placed in one of the beams of a Michelson interferometer. If this causes a shift of 8 bright fringes in the pattern produced by light of wavelength 540 nm, what is the thickness of the film?"
Answer:
The film thickness is 4.32 * 10^-6 m
Explanation:
Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the thickness of the film.
Mathematically;
The number of fringes shifted when we insert a film of refractive index n and thickness L in the Michelson Interferometer is given as;
ΔN = (2L/λ) (n-1)
where λ is the wavelength of the light used
Let’s make L the subject of the formula
(λ * ΔN)/2(n-1) = L
From the question ΔN = 8 , λ = 540 nm, n = 1.5
Plugging these values, we have
L = ((540 * 10^-9 * 8)/2(1.5-1) = (4320 * 10^-9)/1 = 4.32 * 10^-6 m
