I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option 1. As the temperature of the filament increases, the resistance of the filament and the current through the filament would be that the <span> resistance increases and the current decreases. Hope this answers the question.</span>

Answer: (1) The resistance increases and the current decreases.

Explanation:  

When the temperature of the filament increases, the vibrational energy of the constituent atoms increases which leads to increase in inter-atomic collision. Thus, the resistance would increase. The increases in resistance would obstruct the flow of charges more leading to decrease in the value of the current.

Hence, when the temperature of the filament increase, the resistance increases and current decreases.

When a test charge q0 = 2 nC is placed at the origin, it experiences a force of 8 times 10-4 N in the positive y direction. What
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Electric field, E=4\times 10^5\ N/C

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnitude of charge, q_o=2\ nC=2\times 10^{-9}\ C

Force experienced, F=8\times 10^{-4}\ N

We need to find the electric field at the origin. It is given by :

F=q_o\times E

E=\dfrac{F}{q_o}

E=\dfrac{8\times 10^{-4}}{2\times 10^{-9}}

E=4\times 10^5\ N/C

So, the electric field at the origin is 4\times 10^5\ N/C. Hence, this is the required solution.

An object that weighs 2.450 N is attached to an ideal massless spring and undergoes simple harmonic oscillations with a period o
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Spring constant, k = 24.1 N/m

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of the object, W = 2.45 N

Time period of oscillation of simple harmonic motion, T = 0.64 s

To find,

Spring constant of the spring.

Solution,

In case of simple harmonic motion, the time period of oscillation is given by :

T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}

m is the mass of object

m=\dfrac{W}{g}

m=\dfrac{2.45}{9.8}

m = 0.25 kg

k=\dfrac{4\pi^2m}{T^2}

k=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times 0.25}{(0.64)^2}

k = 24.09 N/m

or

k = 24.11 N/m

So, the spring constant of the spring is 24.1 N/m.

for a given initial projectile speed, you observe that the projectile has a certain range R at a launch angle of a = 30. For wha
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The other angle is 30 degrees.

Explanation:

The range of projectile is given by :

R=\dfrac{u^2\ \sin2\theta}{g}

Here,

u is the speed of launch of projectile

Here, \theta=30^{\circ}

We need to find the other launch angle when the projectile have the same range, such that,

\dfrac{u^2\ \sin(60)}{g}=\dfrac{u^2\ \sin2\alpha}{g}

\sin(60)=\sin2\alpha

\dfrac{\sqrt3}{2}=\sin2\alpha

\alpha =30^{\circ}

So, the other angle is 30 degrees. Hence, this is the required solution.

A 74.9 kg person sits at rest on an icy pond holding a 2.44 kg physics book. he throws the physics book west at 8.25 m/s. what i
never [62]

Answer:

The recoil velocity is 0.2687 m/s.

Explanation:

∵ The person is sitting on an icy surface , we can assume that the surface is frictionless.

∴ There is no force acting acting on the person and book as a system in horizontal direction.

Hence , momentum is conserved for this system in horizontal direction of motion.

If 'i' and 'f' be the initial and final states of this system , then by principle of conservation of momentum(p)  -

p_{i}=p_{f}

System initially is at rest

∴p_{i}=0

∴ From the above 2 equations

p_{f}=0

We know that ,

Momentum(p)=Mass of the body(m)×velocity of the body(v)

Let m_{1} and m_{2} be the mass of the person and the book respectively and v_{1} and v_{2} be the final velocities of the person and book respectively.

∴p_{f}=m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}=0

From the question ,

m_{1} = 74.9 kg

m_{2} = 2.44 kg

v_{2} = 8.25 m/s

Substituting these values in the above equation we get ,

(74.9 × v_{1} )+ (2.44×8.25) = 0

∴v_{1}  = - 0.2687 m/s (Negative sign suggests that the motion of  the person is opposite to that of the book)

∴ The recoil velocity is 0.2687 m/s.
