The given information is,

→ Power (P) = 400 W

→ Potential difference (V) = 240 V

→ Current (I) = ?

The amount of current drawn will be,

→ P = V × I

→ I = P/V

→ I = 400/240

→ I = 1.66666666667

→ [ I = 1.67 A ]

Hence, the current drawn 1.67 A.

At a given instant an object has an angular velocity. It also has an angular acceleration due to torques that are present. There

katen-ka-za [31]

a) Constant

b) Constant

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using the equivalent of Newton's second law of motion of rotational motion, which can be written as:

$\tau_{net} = I \alpha$ (1)

where

$\tau_{net}$ is the net torque acting on the object in rotation

I is the moment of inertia of the object

$\alpha$ is the angular acceleration

The angular acceleration is the rate of change of the angular velocity, so it can be written as

$\alpha = \frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t}$

where

$\Delta \omega$ is the change in angular velocity

$\Delta t$ is the time interval

So we can rewrite eq.(1) as

$\tau_{net}=I\frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t}$

In this problem, we are told that at a given instant, the object has an angular acceleration due to the presence of torques, so there is a non-zero change in angular velocity.

Then, additional torques are applied, so that the net torque suddenly equal to zero, so:

$\tau_{net}=0$

From the previous equation, this implies that

$\Delta \omega =0$

Which means that the angular velocity at that instant does not change anymore.

In this second case instead, all the torques are suddenly removed.

This also means that the net torque becomes zero as well:

$\tau_{net}=0$

Therefore, this means that

$\Delta \omega =0$

So also in this case, there is no change in angular velocity: this means that the angular velocity of the object will remain constant.

So cases (a) and (b) are basically the same situation, as the net torque is zero in both cases, so the object acts in the same way.

Cual sera el caudal que lleva un rio cuando se desplaza a 200 litros cada 40 segundos

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Q = 5 L/s

Explanation:

To find the flow you use the following formula (para calcular el caudal usted utiliza la siguiente formula):

$Q=\frac{V}{t}$

V: Volume (volumen) = 200L

t: time (tiempo) = 40 s

you replace the values of the parameters to calculate Q (usted reemplaza los valores de los parámteros V y t para calcular el caudal):

$Q=\frac{200L}{40s}=5\frac{L}{s}$

Hence, the flow is 5 L/s (por lo tanto, el caudal es de 5L/s)
