It takes at least 4 people to push a refrigerator up a 10-meter ramp. How many people would be needed to push the same refrigera

tor to the same height using a 20-meter ramp? (Assume no friction for both ramps. )

Double the amount of people because the ramp went from 10-meter to 20-meter, so times by 2. 4 times 2 is 8.
The answer is 8 people.
Hope this helps!

Traveling waves propagate with a fixed speed usually denoted as v (but sometimes c). The waves are called __________ if their wa
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Periodic.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves is a propagating medium used in all communications device to transmit data (messages) from the device of the sender to the device of the receiver.

Generally, the most commonly used electromagnetic wave technology in telecommunications is radio waves.

Radio waves can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that has its frequency ranging from 30 GHz to 300 GHz and its wavelength between 1mm and 3000m. Therefore, radio waves are a series of repetitive valleys and peaks that are typically characterized of having the longest wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum.

Basically, as a result of radio waves having long wavelengths, they are mainly used in long-distance communications such as the carriage and transmission of data.

Generally, a fixed speed is used for the propagation of traveling waves and this speed is usually denoted with the variable "v" or sometimes "c."

Furthermore, if the waveform of a traveling wave is repeated every time at specific intervals T, it is referred to as periodic wave.

Mathematically, the period of a traveling wave is given by the formula;

Period = \frac {1}{T}

Where;

T is the time measured in seconds.

Suppose you have a total charge qtot that you can split in any manner. Once split, the separation distance is fixed. How do you
dybincka [34]

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Solution:

We know from the Coulomb's Law that, Coulomb's force is directly proportional to the product of two charges q1 and q2 and inversely proportional to the square of the radius between them.

So,

F = \frac{Kq1q2}{r^{2} }

Now, we are asked to get the greatest force. So, in order to do that, product of the charges must be greatest because the force and product of charges are directly proportional.

Let's suppose, q1 = q

So,

if q1 = q

then

q2 = Q-q

Product of Charges = q1 x q2

Now, it is:

Product of Charges = q x (Q-q)

So,

Product of Charges = qQ - q^{2}

And the expression qQ - q^{2} is clearly a quadratic expression. And clearly its roots are 0 and Q.

So, the highest value of the quadratic equation will be surely at mid-point between the two roots 0 and Q.

So, the midpoint is:

q = \frac{Q + 0}{2}

q = Q/2 and it is the highest value of each charge in order to get the greatest force.

A 40.0-mH inductor is connected to a North American electrical outlet (ΔVrms = 120 V, f = 60.0 Hz). Assuming the energy stored i
trasher [3.6K]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Inductance, L=40\ mH=40\times 10^{-3}\ H  

RMS value of voltage, v_{rms}=120\ V

Frequency, f = 60 Hz

We need to find the energy stored at t = (1 /185) s. It is assumed that energy stored in the inductor is zero at t = 0. So,  

The current flowing through the inductor is given by :

I_t=\dfrac{V_o}{X_L}\ (sin\ \omega t-\dfrac{\pi}{2})

I_t=\dfrac{\sqrt{2} V_{rms}}{X_L}\ (sin\ \omega t-\dfrac{\pi}{2})

I_t=\dfrac{120\sqrt{2}}{2\pi f L}\ sin(2\pi f t-\dfrac{\pi}{2})

I_t=\dfrac{120\sqrt{2}}{2\pi\times 60\times 40\times 10^{-3}}\ sin(2\pi \times 60\times \dfrac{1}{185})-\dfrac{\pi}{2})    

I_t=\dfrac{120\sqrt2}{15.07}\ sin(2\pi \times 60\times \dfrac{1}{185}-\dfrac{\pi}{2})

I = 0.091 A

Energy stored in the inductor is, U=\dfrac{1}{2}LI^2

U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 40\times 10^{-3}\times (0.091)^2

U = 0.000165 Joules

Hence, this is the required solution.

In being served, a tennis ball is accelerated from rest to a speed of 31.6 m/s. The average power generated during the serve is
joja [24]

Answer:

The force acting on the ball is 92.4 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the ball, u = 0

Final speed of the ball, v = 31.6 m/s

The average power generated during the serve is 2920 W. Power generated by an object is given by :

P=\dfrac{W}{t}

W is the work done, W = Fd

P=\dfrac{Fd}{t}

Since, v=\dfrac{d}{t}

So,

P=F\times v

F is the force acting on the ball

F=\dfrac{P}{v}\\\\F=\dfrac{2920\ W}{31.6\ m/s}\\\\F = 92.4\ N

So, the force acting on the ball is 92.4 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
