If the resistance of an electric circuit is 12 ohms and the voltage in the circuit is 60 v, the current flowing through the circuit is

a. 0.2 a.
b. 720 a.
c. 5 a.
d. 60 a.

Answer

The current of the circuit is 5 A.

Option (C) is correct .

Explanation :

The relationship between the current , voltage and resistance is given by .

Where I is current , V is voltage and R is resistance .

As given

If the resistance of an electric circuit is 12 ohms and the voltage in the circuit is 60 V .

R = 12 ohms

V = 60 V

Putting the values

I = 5 A

Therefore the current of the circuit is 5 A .

Option (C) is correct .

answer: the correct answer is 1.

explanation: there are various process in which a radioactive nuclei decays:

1) alpha decay: in this process, a heavier nuclei decays into lighter nuclei by releasing alpha particle. the mass number is reduced by 4 units.

2) electron capture: in this decay process, a parent nuclei absorbs an electron and gets converted into a neutron. simply, a proton and an electron combines together to form a neutron. mass number does not change in this process.

3) gamma ray emission: it is a decay process in which an unstable nuclei gives excess energy by a spontaneous electromagnetic process. this decay releases . this process does not change the mass number.

4) positron emission: it is a type of decay process, in which a proton gets converted to neutron and an electron neutrino. this is also known as -decay. in this the mass number remains same.

from the above information, we see that only alpha-decay is producing a change in the mass number of the nucleus.
