A solid wooden cube, 30cm on each side can be totally submerged in water if it is pushed downward with a force of 54N. What is t

Stels [109]

Answer:

the density of the wooden cube is 204.1 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given;

applied force, F = 54 N

length of each side of the solid wooden cube, L = 30 cm = 0.3 m

mass of the wooden cube is calculated as;

F = mg

m = F/g

m = 54/9.8

m = 5.51 kg

The volume of the wooden cube is calculated as;

V = L³

V = (0.3)³

V = 0.027 m³

The density of the wooden cube is calculated as;

ρ = m/V

ρ = (5.51 kg) / (0.027 m³)

ρ = 204.1 kg/m³

Therefore, the density of the wooden cube is 204.1 kg/m³

If a hammer has a resistance arm of 3 inches and the effort arm is 15 inches. What is the mechanical advantage?

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Option D

MA=5

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage is the the ratio of the output force to the input force hence

$MA=\frac {Effort arm length}{Load arm length}$

Substituting 15 inches for the effort arm length and 3 inches for the load arm length then we obtain the mechanical advantage as

$MA=\frac {15}{3}=5$

A car traveling in a straight line at an initial speed of 8.0 meters per second accelerates uniformly to a speed of 14 meters pe

Whitepunk [10]

The equation we can use here is:

v^2 = v0^2 + 2 a d

where v is final velocity, v0 is intial velocity, a is acceleration and d is distance

14^2 = 8^2 + 2 a (44)

Two insulated copper wires of similar overall diameter have very different interiors. One wire possesses a solid core of copper,

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

Solid Wire $I = 0.01237 \ A$

Stranded Wire $I_2 = 0.00978 \ A$

Solid Wire $R = 0.0149 \ \Omega$

Stranded Wire $R_1 = 0.0189 \ \Omega$

Explanation:

Considering the first question

From the question we are told that

The radius of the first wire is $r_1 = 1.53 mm = 0.0015 \ m$

The radius of each strand is $r_0 = 0.306 \ mm = 0.000306 \ m$

The current density in both wires is $J = 1750 \ A/m^2$

Considering the first wire

The cross-sectional area of the first wire is

$A = \pi r^2$

= > $A = 3.142 * (0.0015)^2$

= > $A = 7.0695 *10^{-6} \ m^2$

Generally the current in the first wire is

$I = J*A$

=> $I = 1750*7.0695 *10^{-6}$

=> $I = 0.01237 \ A$

Considering the second wire wire

The cross-sectional area of the second wire is

$A_1 = 19 * \pi r^2$

=> $A_1 = 19 *3.142 * (0.000306)^2$

=> $A_1 = 5.5899 *10^{-6} \ m^2$

Generally the current is

$I_2 = J * A_1$

=> $I_2 = 1750 * 5.5899 *10^{-6}$

=> $I_2 = 0.00978 \ A$

Considering question two

From the question we are told that

Resistivity is $\rho = 1.69* 10^{-8} \Omega \cdot m$

The length of each wire is $l = 6.25 \ m$

Generally the resistance of the first wire is mathematically represented as

$R = \frac{\rho * l }{A}$

=> $R = \frac{ 1.69* 10^{-8} * 6.25 }{ 7.0695 *10^{-6} }$

=> $R = 0.0149 \ \Omega$

Generally the resistance of the first wire is mathematically represented as

$R_1 = \frac{\rho * l }{A_1}$

=> $R_1 = \frac{ 1.69* 10^{-8} * 6.25 }{5.5899 *10^{-6} }$

=> $R_1 = 0.0189 \ \Omega$
