Recall this equation for a device in a direct current circuit:
P = IV
P is the power dissipated by the device, I is the current through the device, and V is the voltage drop of the device.

If we choose to use the ampere as the unit of current and the volt as the unit of voltage, then the product of the current and the voltage will give the power with watts as the unit.

Olivia wants to find out whether a substance will fluoresce. She says she should put it in a microwave oven. Do you agree with h
Luda [366]

Disagree

Explanation:

Fluoresce objects will glow when put under Ultraviolet light as the molecules are excited by the ultraviolet radiation.

Microwaves give micro-waves that are present in another spectrum of wave length and will not be able to fluoresce the molecules

PolarNik [594]

-- From the point of view of an observer on Earth, the moon's orbit is an ellipse
with the Earth's center at one focus.

-- From the point of view of an observer on the sun, or on any other planet,
the moon's orbit is an ellipse with the sun at one focus, and perturbed by being
near the Earth.

Henri draws a wave that has a 4 cm distance between the midpoint and the trough. Geri draws a wave that has an 8 cm vertical dis
andre [41]

Answer:

Henri’s wave and Geri’s wave have the same amplitude and the same energy

Explanation:

The amplitude of a wave is the distance between the midpoint and the trough (or the crest). This is equivalent to half the distance between the trough and the crest. Therefore:

  • amplitude of Henri's wave: 4 cm
  • amplitude of Geri's wave: 8/2 = 4 cm

The energy of a wave is directly proportional to its amplitude.

A 7.25-kg bowling ball is being swung horizontally in a clockwise direction (as viewed from above) at a constant speed in a circ
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

a_c=9.66\frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration is given by:

a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}(1)

Here v is the linear speed and r is the radius of the circular motion. v is defined as the distance traveled to make one revolution (2\pi r) divided into the time takes to make one revolution, that is, the period (T).

v=\frac{2\pi r}{T}(2)

Replacing (2) in (1) and replacing the given values:

a_c=\frac{(\frac{2\pi r}{T})^2}{r}\\a_c=\frac{4\pi^2 r}{T^2}\\a_c=\frac{4\pi^2 (1.85m)}{(2.75s)^2}\\a_c=9.66\frac{m}{s^2}
