Answer:

0.4 A

Explanation:

From the question,

Electric power = Voltage×current

P = VI.......................... Equation 1

Make I the subject of the equation

I = P/V..................... Equation 2

Given: P = 96 J/s, V = 230 V.

Substitute into equation 2

I = 96/230

I = 0.4 A.

Hence the current is 0.4 A

By wave particle  duality.

Wavelength , λ = h / mv

where h = Planck's constant = 6.63 * 10⁻³⁴ Js,  m = mass in kg,  v = velocity in m/s.
m = 1kg,  v = 4.5 m/s

λ = h / mv

λ = (6.63 * 10⁻³⁴) /(1*4.5)

λ ≈  1.473 * 10⁻³⁴  m

A star orbiting a black hole in a clockwise direction at a radial distance of 1.0 × 106 km is acted upon by a counterclockwise f
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

2.5 \times 10^{11} N-m upwards        

Explanation:

Torque is the vector cross product of the force and radial distance.

\tau = rF sin \theta

\tau = (1.0\times 10^6 \times 10^3) m \times 250 N\times sin 90^o \\\Rightarrow \tau= 2.5 \times 10^{11} N-m

The direction of the torque would be perpendicular to the direction of the force and radial distance. The direction of the force is counter-clockwise. The direction of the torque would be upwards.

MrRa [10]
Convection can best be observed as she blows the warm steam air that rises.

As the warm steam rises,  she forces displaces it with cool air from her mouth. Because the warm steam is less dense it rises and because the cool air is more dense, it displaces the warm air.

This scenario is an example of convection.

A 10-kilogram box is at static equilibrium, and the downward pull of gravity acting on the box is 98 newtons. What is the minimu
Nikolay [14]
The box is at equilibrium, so the net force on the box is zero (the force of gravity on the box is equal to the force exerted up on the box by the surface on which it rests.)
To pick up the box, our upward force must be greater than the force of gravity on the box (the weight). So, we must lift up the box with a force greater than 98 newtons. :)
