current drawn;
resistance of the hheater.I want to know how to go about it

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Current drawn = 0.417 A (rounded to 3 significant figures)

Resistance = 576Ω (rounded to 3 significant figures)

Explanation:

Current = Power ÷ Voltage

Current = 100W / 240V

∴ Current = 0.416666666.... = 0.417A

Resistance = Voltage ÷ Current

Resistance = 240 ÷ 0.417

∴ Resistance = 575.539 = 576Ω

(Note: You must include the force of gravity to solve the problem.)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a=4.19 m/s^{2}[/tex]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must first draw a free body diagram of the situation. (See attached picture)

from this diagram, we can do the following sum of forces:

[tex]\sum F=ma[/tex]

where m is the mass of the rocket and a is its acceleration.

[tex]F_{e}-mg=ma[/tex]

where [tex]F_{e}[/tex] is the force of exhaust. We can solve this for the acceleration, so we get:

[tex]a=\frac{F_{e}-mg}{m}[/tex]

we can find the force of exhaust by using the momentum formula:

Ft=mv

so we can solve this for the force:

[tex]F_{e}=\frac{mv}{t}[/tex]

the problem already tells us what m/t is equal to, so we can directly substitute:

[tex]F_{e}=(1.75x10^{4}kg/s)(2.40x10^3m/s)[/tex]

which yields:

[tex]F_{e}=42x10^6 N[/tex]

So we can now substitute:

[tex]a=\frac{42x10^6N-(3x10^6kg)(9.81m/s^{2})}{3x10^6kg}[/tex]

so:

[tex]a=4.19 m/s^{2}[/tex]

A ball starts from rest, it rolls down a ramp and reaches the ground after 4 seconds. The final velocity when it reaches the ground is 7.0 meters/second. What is initial velocity and its acceleration?

Answers

If it starts at rest the initial velocity is 0.

For an acceleration, a, and time, t, the velocity is v=at. Since at t=4, v=7, then a=7/4=1.75m/s^2

The initial velocity and the acceleration of the ball start from rest, it rolls down a ramp and reaches the ground after 4 seconds are 0 m/s and 3.5 m / s² respectively.

What is velocity?

The rate of change of an object's location when viewed from a particular angle and measured in a particular unit of time is known as its velocity.

The average speed of a point for a set period of time while it travels a predetermined distance along its path is equal to the distance traveled divided by the travel time. A train, for instance, moves at an average speed of 50 km/h when it travels 100 km in two hours.

Given:

A ball starts from rest, it rolls down a ramp and reaches the ground after 4 seconds. The final velocity when it reaches the ground is 7.0 m/s,

Calculate the acceleration as shown below,

[tex]v = u + at[/tex]

7 = u + a  × 4

7 = u + 4a

As it starts from rest, then the initial velocity is 0 m/s

a = 7/4 or 3.5  m / s²

Thus, the acceleration is 3.5 m / s² and the initial velocity is 0 m/s.

Why does the sun predictably hold the asteroid and the Earth in orbit?

Answers

Answer:

The force of gravity

Explanation:

The sun is able to predictably hold the asteroid and the earth in orbit by the force of gravity is possesses.

During the earth formation of the solar system, the sun captured the earth and other planetary bodies within its region of influence.

Based on Newton's law of universal gravitation, the force of gravity between two bodies is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The sun is a very massive body and due to the mass of the earth and other bodies, they are captured by the attractive gravitational force into its orbit.

O C. The particle model, because the metal is emitting packets of light

O D. The pticle model, because the metal is only absorbing radiation
of specific frequencies

Answers

Answer:

The particle model, because the metal is only absorbing radiation

of specific frequencies

Explanation:

The heating of a metal is an example of blackbody radiation. Blackbody radiation refers to the spectrum of light emitted by any heated object; common examples include the heating element of a toaster and the filament of a light bulb. The spectral intensity of blackbody radiation peaks at a frequency that increases with the temperature of the emitting body(Encyclopedia Britianica).

Max Plank proffered explanation to black body radiation by assuming that the oscillators in the heated body emit or absorb energy in discrete frequencies given by E=hf. Hence the energy was directly proportional to the frequency of the oscillator.

A rocket for use in deep space is to have the capability of boosting a total load (payload plus the rocket frame and engine) of 3.25 metric tons to a speed of 10,000 m/s. It has an engine and fuel designed to produce an exhaust speed of 2400 m/s. How much fuel plus oxidizer is required (in metric tons)

Answers

Answer:

13.54 tons

Explanation:

Let f be the amount of fuel oxidizer needed

v be the speed

The relationship between them is inverse in nature i.e

f ∝ 1/v

f = k/v

If a rocket for use in deep space is to have the capability of boosting a total load (payload plus the rocket frame and engine) of 3.25 metric tons to a speed of 10,000 m/s, then f = 3.25 when v  = 10,000

Substitute and get k

k = fv

k = 3.25 * 10,000

k = 32500

To get the amount of fuel oxidizer required to produce a speed of 2400m/s, we will find f when v = 2400m/s

Recall that f = k/v

f = 32500/2400

f = 13.54 metric tons

Hence the fuel plus oxidizer that will be required is 13.54 tons

Planet 1 orbits Star 1 and Planet 2 orbits Star 2 in circular orbits of the same radius. However, the orbital period of Planet 1 is longer than the orbital period of Planet 2. What could explain this

Answers

Answer:

The mass of Star 2 is Greater than the mass of Start 1. (This, if we suppose the masses of the planets are much smaller than the masses of the stars)

Explanation:

First of all, let's draw a free body diagram of a planet orbiting a star. (See attached picture).

From the free body diagram we can build an equation with the sum of forces between the start and the planet.

[tex]\sum F=ma[/tex]

We know that the force between two bodies due to gravity is given by the following equation:

[tex]F_{g} = G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}}[/tex]

in this case we will call:

M= mass of the star

m= mass of the planet

r = distance between the star and the planet

G= constant of gravitation.

so:

[tex]F_{g} =G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}}[/tex]

Also, if the planet describes a circular orbit, the centripetal force is given by the following equation:

[tex]F_{c}=ma_{c}[/tex]

where the centripetal acceleration is given by:

[tex]a_{c}=\omega ^{2}r[/tex]

where

[tex]\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T}[/tex]

Where T is the period, and [tex]\omega[/tex] is the angular speed of the planet, so:

[tex]a_{c} = ( \frac{2\pi}{T})^{2}r[/tex]

or:

[tex]a_{c}=\frac{4\pi^{2}r}{T^{2}}[/tex]

so:

[tex]F_{c}=m(\frac{4\pi^{2}r}{T^{2}})[/tex]

so now we can do the sum of forces:

[tex]\sum F=ma[/tex]

[tex]F_{g}=ma_{c}[/tex]

[tex]G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}}=m(\frac{4\pi^{2}r}{T^{2}})[/tex]

in this case we can get rid of the mass of the planet, so we get:

[tex]G\frac{M}{r^{2}}=(\frac{4\pi^{2}r}{T^{2}})[/tex]

we can now solve this for [tex]T^{2}[/tex] so we get:

[tex]T^{2} = \frac{4\pi ^{2}r^{3}}{GM}[/tex]

We could take the square root to both sides of the equation but that would not be necessary. Now, the problem tells us that the period of planet 1 is longer than the period of planet 2, so we can build the following inequality:

[tex]T_{1}^{2}>T_{2}^{2}[/tex]

So let's see what's going on there, we'll call:

[tex]M_{1}[/tex]= mass of Star 1

[tex]M_{2}[/tex]= mass of Star 2

So:

[tex]\frac{4\pi^{2}r^{3}}{GM_{1}}>\frac{4\pi^{2}r^{3}}{GM_{2}}[/tex]

we can get rid of all the constants so we end up with:

[tex]\frac{1}{M_{1}}>\frac{1}{M_{2}}[/tex]

and let's flip the inequality, so we get:

[tex]M_{2}>M_{1}[/tex]

This means that for the period of planet 1 to be longer than the period of planet 2, we need the mass of star 2 to be greater than the mass of star 1. This makes sense because the greater the mass of the star is, the greater the force it applies on the planet is. The greater the force, the faster the planet should go so it stays in orbit. The faster the planet moves, the smaller the period is. In this case, planet 2 is moving faster, therefore it's period is shorter.

A brick of gold is 0.1 m wide, 0.1 m high, and 0.2 m long. The density of gold is 19,300 kg/m3. What pressure does the brick exert on the table if the brick is resting on its side?

Answers

Answer:

The pressure exerted by the brick on the table is 18,933.3 N/m².

Explanation:

Given;

height of the brick, h = 0.1 m

density of the brick, ρ = 19,300 kg/m³

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

The pressure exerted by the brick on the table is calculated as;

P = ρgh

P = (19,300)(9.81)(0.1)

P = 18,933.3 N/m²

Therefore, the pressure exerted by the brick on the table is 18,933.3 N/m².

Answers

Answer:

The North American tectonic plate.

Explanation:

recall the formula for momentum: p = m * v

the subatomic particles have very small masses while high speeds, so the product results in values with negative exponents in scientific notation.

Negative exponents also result for the house fly when converting mg into kg (10^-6).

The positive exponents in scientific notation for the momentum come for the gigantic mass of the continental plate which exceeds the negative exponents contributed by the small velocity.


Identify the mathematical proportion that relates electrostatic force and displacement for a pair of charged particles.
A. Direct linear
B. Inverse
C. Quadratic
D. Inverse square

Answers

Answer:

D. Inverse square

Explanation:

According to the information you are giving me, you must be referring to Coulomb's law because the electrostatic force in proportion to the displacement of charged particles is [tex] F =\frac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{r²} [/tex].

As you can see, there is a reason as to why this is also referred to as Coulomb's inverse square law because the r² represents the displacement or distance relative to the position of the particles which is squared, and it is inverse because the force and the product of the distance squared is equal to the product of the two charges particles multiplied by coulomb's constant (k) which is approximately 8.9875517923×10⁹ kg⋅m³⋅s⁻²⋅C⁻².

The mathematical proportion that relates electrostatic force and displacement for a pair of charged particles is Inverse square. Hence, option (D) is correct.

What is electrostatic force?

The electrostatic force is an attractive and repulsive force caused by the electric charges of particles. The electrostatic force is the electric force that exists between two stationary charged bodies. It is also known as Coulomb's force.

Hence,  electrostatic force inversely proportional to the distance between two charges. If two charges Q and q are separated by a distance r, the magnitude of electrostatic force between them is given by:

F = kQq/r²

So, the mathematical proportion that relates electrostatic force and displacement for a pair of charged particles is Inverse square. Hence, option (D) is correct.

If you tethered a space station to the earth by a long cable, you could get to space in an elevator that rides up the cable--much simpler and cheaper than riding to space on a rocket. There's one big problem, however: There is no way to create a cable that is long enough. The cable would need to reach 36,000 km upward, to the height where a satellite orbits at the same speed as the earth rotates; a cable this long made of ordinary materials couldn't even support its own weight. Consider a steel cable suspended from a point high above the earth. The stress in the cable is highest at the top; it must support the weight of cable below it.
What is the greatest length the cable could have without failing? For the purposes of this problem, you can ignore the variation in gravity near the surface of the earth. Hint: The mass of the cable is the volume of the cable multiplied by the density. The density of steel is 7900 kg/m3.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Stress=12903.3923m[/tex]

Cable length 36,000km

The density of steel is 7900 kg/m3.

Generally mass is mathematically given as

  [tex]m= \rho v[/tex]

  [tex]m= \rho Al[/tex]

Generally the weight of cable is mathematically give as

  [tex]W_c=mg[/tex]

  [tex]W_c=(\rho Al)g[/tex]

Generally the stress on a material is mathematically represented as

  [tex]Stress=\frac{Force}{Area}[/tex]

  [tex]Stress=\frac{\rho Al}{A}*g[/tex]

  [tex]Stress=\frac{\rho l}{1}*g[/tex]

Stress or tensile strength of steel is [tex]1000*10^6N/m^2[/tex]

Therefore

     [tex]l=\frac{Stress}{pg}[/tex]

     [tex]Stress=\frac{1000*10^6}{(7900)(9.81)}[/tex]

    [tex]Stress=12903.3923m[/tex]
