The key formula ===> Voltage = (current) x (resistance)

Plug in the numbers given ===> Voltage = (3.6 A) x (5.0 ohms)

Dooda multiplication ===> Voltage = 18 volts

Answer: The correct answer is 18 V.

Explanation:

The mathematical expression from Ohm's law is as follows:

V=IR

Here, V is the voltage, R is the resistance and I is the current.

It is given in the problem that A circuit has a current of 3.6 A and a resistance of 5.0 Ω.

Put R= 5 ohm and I= 3.6 A in the above expression.

V= (3.6)(5)

V=18 V.

Therefore, the value of voltage is 18 V.

Suppose that a wind is blowing in the direction S45°E at a speed of 30 km/h. A pilot is steering a plane in the direction N60°E

Kay [80]

Answer:

The true course: $40.29^\circ$ north of east

The ground speed of the plane: 96.68 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

$V_w$ = velocity of wind = $30\ km/h\ S45^\circ E = (30\cos 45^\circ\ \hat{i}-30\sin 45^\circ\ \hat{j})\ km/h = (21.21\ \hat{i}-21.21\ \hat{j})\ km/h$

$V_p$ = velocity of plane in still air = $100\ km/h\ N60^\circ E = (100\cos 60^\circ\ \hat{i}+100\sin 60^\circ\ \hat{j})\ km/h = (50\ \hat{i}+86.60\ \hat{j})\ km/h$

Assume:

$V_r$ = resultant velocity of the plane

$\theta$ = direction of the plane with the east

Since the resultant is the vector addition of all the vectors. So, the resultant velocity of the plane will be the vector sum of the wind velocity and the plane velocity in still air.

$\therefore V_r = V_p+V_w\\\Rightarrow V_r = (50\ \hat{i}+86.60\ \hat{j})\ km/h+(21.21\ \hat{i}-21.21\ \hat{j})\ km/h\\\Rightarrow V_r = (71.21\ \hat{i}+65.39\ \hat{j})\ km/h$

Let us find the direction of this resultant velocity with respect to east direction:

$\theta = \tan^{-1}(\dfrac{65.39}{71.21})\\\Rightarrow \theta = 40.29^\circ$

This means the the true course of the plane is in the direction of $40.29^\circ$ north of east.

The ground speed will be the magnitude of the resultant velocity of the plane.

$\therefore Magnitude = \sqrt{71.21^2+65.39^2} = 96.68\ km/h$

Hence, the ground speed of the plane is 96.68 km/h.

Answer:

Photoelectric-type alarms aim a light source into a sensing chamber at an angle away from the sensor. Smoke enters the chamber, reflecting light onto the light sensor; triggering the alarm.

A car engine has power than a horse because a car engine does the same amount of work in time. Yasmin and Raj each had 10 boxes

labwork [276]

Answer:

A car engine has more power than a horse because a car engine does the same amount of work in time. Yasmin and Raj each had 10 boxes of equal weight to stack next to each other on the same shelf, at the same height and in the same arrangement. Yasmin completed the task in 2 minutes, while Raj took 3 minutes to stack his boxes. Raj applied less power than Yasmin because his stacking took more time to do the same amount of work.
