A wire from the power supply is carrying 120w of power and 24a of current. which color(s) of cable is the wire

There is no picture given so I can't be really sure what color of the cable you're referring to. However, the only relationship I can think of when the power and the current is given would be: P=IV or P = I²R, where P is power, I is current, V is voltage and R is resistance. Solving both equations:

120 W = (24 A)(Voltage)
Voltage = 5 V

120 W = (24 A)²(R)
R = 0.2083 Ω

So, i think the cable would have specification of 5 Volts and 0.2083 ohms.

Answer and explanation;

Power = voltage × current;

P = V/I

Thus;

V = P/I

= 120W/24A

= 5V

The voltage is therefore; 5 volts

The wire color is either Red or White.

which has a greater kinetic energy, a bowling ball that has a mass of 5kg travelling at 6m/s, or a ship that has a mass of 12000
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:bowling ball has greater kinetic energy

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of bowling ball:

mass=m=5kg

Velocity=v=6m/s

Kinetic energy =ke

Ke=0.5 x m x v x v

Ke=0.5 x 5 x 6 x 6

Ke=90J

Kinetic energy of ship:

mass=m=120000kg

velocity=v=0.02m/s

Ke=0.5 x m x v x v

Ke=0.5 x 120000 x 0.02 x 0.02

Ke=24J

If a 3-kg rabbit's leg muscles act as imperfectly elastic springs, how much energy will they hold if the rabbit lands from a hei
DiKsa [7]

Answer;

- 15 J

Explanation;

-Potential energy is defined as mechanical energy, stored energy, or energy caused by its position.

-For the gravitational force the formula is P.E. = mgh, where m is the mass in kilograms, g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m /s² at the surface of the earth) and h is the height in meters.

Potential energy of the rabbit at the peak of its height is

PE = (3)(10)(0.5) = 15 J

(around 14.7 but because energy is lost, it is less than that)

A 92-kg skier is sliding down a ski slope that makes an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal direction. The coefficient of k
9966 [12]

Answer:

a = 4.05 m/s²

Explanation:

Known data

m= 92 kg  : mass of the  skier

θ =30°  :angle θ of the ski slope  with respect to the horizontal direction

μk= 0.10 : coefficient of kinetic friction

g = 9.8 m/s² : acceleration due to gravity

Newton's second law:

∑F = m*a Formula (1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass s (kg)

a : acceleration  (m/s²)

We define the x-axis in the direction parallel to the movement of the block on the ramp and the y-axis in the direction perpendicular to it.

Forces acting on the skier

W: Weight of the skier : In vertical direction

N : Normal force : perpendicular to the ski slope

f : Friction force: parallel to the ski slope

Calculated of the W

W= m*g

W=  92kg* 9.8 m/s² = 901,6 N

x-y weight components

Wx= Wsin θ= 901,6 N *sin 30° = 450.8 N

Wy= Wcos θ = 901,6 N *cos 30° =780.8 N

Calculated of the N

We apply the formula (1)

∑Fy = m*ay    ay = 0

N - Wy = 0

N = Wy

N = 780.8 N

Calculated of the f

f = μk* N=  0.10*780.8 N  

f = 78.08 N

We apply the formula (1) to calculated acceleration of the skier:

∑Fx = m*ax  ,  ax= a  : acceleration of the block

Wx - f = m*a

450.8- 78.08 = ( 92)*a

372.72 =  (92)*a

a = (372.72)/ (92)

a = 4.05 m/s²

"For a first order instrument with a sensitivity of .4 mV/K and a time" constant of 25 ms, find the instrument’s response as a f
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

For a first order instrument with a sensitivity of .4 mV/K

constant c  = 25 ms = 25 × 10⁻³ s

The initial temperature T_1 = 273 K

The final temperature T_2 = 473 K

The initial volume = 0.4 mV/K × 273 K = 109.2 V

The final volume =  0.4 mV/K × 473 K =  189.2 V

the instrument’s response as a function of time for a sudden temperature increase can be computed as follows:

Let consider y to be the function of time i.e y(t).

So;

y(t) = 109.2  + (189.2 - 109.2)( 1 - \mathbf{e^{-t/c}})mV

y(t) = (109.2 +  80 ( 1 - \mathbf{e^{t/25\times 10^{-3}}})) mV

Plot the response y(t) as a function of time.

The plot of y(t) as a function of time can be seen in the diagram  attached below.

What are the units for y(t)?

The unit for y(t) is mV.

Find the 90% rise time for y(t90) and the error fraction,

The 90% rise time for y(t90) is as follows:

Initially 90% of 189.2 mV = 0.9 ×  189.2 mV

=  170.28 mV

170.28 mV = (109.2 +  80 ( 1 - \mathbf{e^{t/25\times 10^{-3}}})) mV

170.28 mV - 109.2 mV = 80 ( 1 - \mathbf{e^{t/25\times 10^{-3}}})) mV

61.08 mV =  80 ( 1 - \mathbf{e^{t/25\times 10^{-3}}})) mV

0.7635  mV = ( 1 - \mathbf{e^{t/25\times 10^{-3}}})) mV

t = 1.44 × 25  × 10⁻³ s

t = 0.036 s

t = 36 ms

The error fraction = \dfrac{189.2-170.28  }{189.2}

The error fraction = 0.1

The error fraction = 10%
