One form of Ohm's Law says . . . . . Resistance = Voltage / Current .

R = V / I

R = (12 v) / (0.025 A)

R = (12 / 0.025) (V/I)

<em>R = 480 Ohms</em>

I don't know if the current in the bulb is steady, because I don't know what a car's "accumulator" is.  (Floogle isn't sure either.)

If you're referring to the car's battery, then the current is quite steady, because the battery is a purely DC storage container.

If you're referring to the car's "alternator" ... the thing that generates electrical energy in a car to keep the battery charged ... then the current is pulsating DC, because that's the form of the alternator's output.

When Ag(silver) reacts with CuCl2, Ag displaces Cu from CuCl2 and forms AgCl which is soluble and brownish red solid precipitate is left in the solution. 

Hence option D is correct.
Hope this helps!

An ideal gas at temperature t0 is slowly compressed at constant pressure of 2 atm from a volume of 10 liters to a volume of 2 li
Sati [7]
<span>Answer: 1600 J

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) ideal gas: ⇒ pV = nRT and work = ∫ pdV
b) slowly compressed ⇒ constant temperature and not heat exchange
c) pressure: p =  2 atm
d) intitial volume: Vi = 10 liters
e) final volumen: Vf = 2 liters.
f) then the volume of the gas is held constant ⇒ not work in this stage.
g) calculate the work done on the gas: W = ?

2) Equation

W = ∫pdV

3) Solution:

Since p = constant,  W = p ∫dV = p ΔV = p (Vf - Vi)

p = 2 atm × 1.0 ×10⁵ Pa / atm = 200.000 Pa

Vi = 10 liter ×  0.001 m³ ./ liter = 0.01 m³

Vf = 2 liter × 0.001 m³ / liter = 0.002 m³

W = 200.000 Pa × (0.002 m³ - 0.01m³) = - 1.600 J.

The negative sign means the work is done over the system.

That is all the work in the system because at the second stage the volume is held constant.

A resistor with resistance R and an air-gap capacitor of capacitance C are connected in series to a battery (whose strength is "
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

a) Q = C*emf

b)  Reduction in electric field strength and electric potential

c) Initial current through the resistor = emf/R

d) The final charge = K*C*emf

Explanation:

a) The resistors and capacitors are connected in series with the battery

Using Kirchoff's voltage law, sum of all voltages in the circuit is zero

Let V_{R} = Voltage dropped across the Resistor

V_{c} = Voltage dropped across the capacitor

Applying KVL;

emf - V_{R}  - V_{c} = 0\\.........................(1)

Since the connection is in series, the same current flow through the circuit

V_{R} = IR\\Q = CV_{c} \\V_{c} = Q/C

Putting V_{c} and V_{R} into equation (1)

emf - IR - Q/C = 0

At the final charge, the capacitor in fully charged, and current drops to zero due to equilibrium

I = 0A\\emf = Q/C\\Q = C* emf

b) Current starts running through the plate because as the sheet of plastic is inserted between the plates both the electric field intensity and the electric potential reduces. The charge also reduces, then current flows

c) The current through the resistor is the current through the entire circuit ( series connection)

I = I_{o} \exp(\frac{-t}{RC} )\\At time the initial time, t\\t = 0\\ I_{o} = \frac{emf}{R} \\

Putting the values of t and I₀ into the formula for I written above

I = \frac{emf}{R} \exp(0)\\I = \frac{emf}{R}

d) NB: The initial charge on the capacitor = C * emf

The final charge will be:

Q = K* Q_{initial} \\Q_{initial}  = C *emf\\Q_{final}  = KCemf

Materials have unique properties because each one is made up of different kinds of which particle?
inysia [295]

D. Atoms.

Explanation:

All the matter is made of elementary particles called "atoms".

Further, an atom is made of electrons, protons and neutrons. The electrons & protons are again made of the fundamental sub-particles, electrons (leptons) and the protons(quarks).

The classification of particles is shown in the figure attached
