Stu wanted to calculate the resistance of a light bulb connected to a 4.0-V battery, with a resulting current of 0.5 A. He used
2 answers:
Answer: no, Stu's answer was incorrect.
Explanation:
The correct formula that relates current, resistance and voltage in a circuit is given by Ohm's law:
or
where
V is the voltage in the circuit
I is the current
R is the resistance
In this circuit, the voltage is V=4.0 V, and the current is I=0.5 A, therefore the resistance of the circuit is

We use the kinematic equations,
(A)
(B)
Here, u is initial velocity, v is final velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.
Given, ,
and
.
Substituting these values in equation (B), we get
.
Therefore from equation (A),
Thus, the magnitude of the boat's final velocity is 10.84 m/s and the time taken by boat to travel the distance 280 m is 51.63 s
Answer:
Answer:
1.1 x 10^9 ohm metre
Explanation:
diameter = 1.5 mm
length, l = 5 cm
Potential difference, V = 9 V
current, i = 230 micro Ampere = 230 x 10^-6 A
radius, r = diameter / 2 = 1.5 / 2 = 0.75 x 10^-3 m
Let the resistivity is ρ.
Area of crossection
A = πr² = 3.14 x 0.75 x 0.75 x 10^-6 = 1.766 x 10^-6 m^2
Use Ohm's law to find the value of resistance
V = i x R
9 = 230 x 10^-6 x R
R = 39130.4 ohm
Use the formula for the resistance
ρ = 1.1 x 10^9 ohm metre

Answer:
22.7 meters
Explanation:
Let's remind the difference between distance and displacement:
- distance: the total distance travelled by an object in all its paths
- displacement: the different between the final and initial position of the object
In this case, the problem asks to find the distance covered by the ball. This will be the sum of the distances covered by the ball in each part of its motion, therefore:
(instead, the displacement will be the difference between the final and initial position of the ball, therefore:
)
