When the lights of a car are switched on, an ammeter in series with them reads
7.29 A and a voltmeter connected across them reads 12.0 V (see the figure).
When the electric starting motor is turned on, the ammeter reading drops to
5.70 A and the lights dim somewhat. If the internal resistance of the battery is
0.0549 and that of the ammeter is negligible, what are (a) the emf of the
battery and (b) the current through the starting motor (in A) when the lights are
on?

(University Physics 1: Thermodynamics)arrow_forwardAn astronomer discovered two planets, X and Y, orbiting a star. From the perspective of the astronomer, the planets orbit the star as depicted in the figures. Five years ago, the planets were in the position shown in figure (a), with X, Y, and the star in a straight line. Today, planet X is in the position shown in figure (b), having made an angular displacement of 90.0°. If the radii of their orbits are in the ratio 5:4, what is the angular displacement of Y? (Give your answer in revolutions.) a b 1/5 × Equate Newton's law of universal gravitation with his second law, noting that the force in this case is a centripetal force, and use the relationship among angular velocity, radius, and linear velocity.
