<span>D. sill

A sill forms when hot magma squeezes between layers of rock to form a hardened sheet of rock. A sill is basically a tabular sheet intrusion between old layers of sedimentary rock, volcanic beds, or in the direction of foliation inherent in metamorphic rock. The word sill means a concordant intrusive sheet.</span>

A thin rod of length 1.4 m and mass 140 g is suspended freely from one end. It is pulled to one side and then allowed to swing l

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

a The kinetic energy is $KE = 0.0543 J$

b The height of the center of mass above that position is $h = 1.372 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The length of the rod is $L = 1.4m$

The mass of the rod $m = 140 = \frac{140}{1000} = 0.140 \ kg$

The angular speed at the lowest point is $w = 1.09 \ rad/s$

Generally moment of inertia of the rod about an axis that passes through its one end is

$I = \frac{mL^2}{3}$

Substituting values

$I = \frac{(0.140) (1.4)^2}{3}$

$I = 0.0915 \ kg \cdot m^2$

Generally the kinetic energy rod is mathematically represented as

$KE = \frac{1}{2} Iw^2$

$KE = \frac{1}{2} (0.0915) (1.09)^2$

$KE = 0.0543 J$

From the law of conservation of energy

The kinetic energy of the rod during motion = The potential energy of the rod at the highest point

Therefore

$KE = PE = mgh$

$0.0543 = mgh$

$h = \frac{0.0543}{9.8 * 0.140}$

$h = 1.372 \ m$

10) The coil of transformer is coated by enamel why

diamong [38]

Answer:

Enamel is used to coat the wires, it is the thinnest possible insulator. The coils are made up of large number of turns and enamel makes it possible to cram a lot of wires (coils) in much smaller space.

A point charge q is located at the center of a spherical shell of radius a that has a charge −q uniformly distributed on its sur

muminat

Answer:

a) E = 0

b) $E = \dfrac{k_e \cdot q}{ r^2 }$

Explanation:

The electric field for all points outside the spherical shell is given as follows;

a) $\phi_E = \oint E \cdot dA = \dfrac{\Sigma q_{enclosed}}{\varepsilon _{0}}$

From which we have;

$E \cdot A = \dfrac{{\Sigma Q}}{\varepsilon _{0}} = \dfrac{+q + (-q)}{\varepsilon _{0}} = \dfrac{0}{\varepsilon _{0}} = 0$

E = 0/A = 0

E = 0

b) $\phi_E = \oint E \cdot dA = \dfrac{\Sigma q_{enclosed}}{\varepsilon _{0}}$

$E \cdot A = \dfrac{+q }{\varepsilon _{0}}$

$E = \dfrac{+q }{\varepsilon _{0} \cdot A} = \dfrac{+q }{\varepsilon _{0} \cdot 4 \cdot \pi \cdot r^2}$

By Gauss theorem, we have;

$E\oint dS = \dfrac{q}{\varepsilon _{0}}$

Therefore, we get;

$E \cdot (4 \cdot \pi \cdot r^2) = \dfrac{q}{\varepsilon _{0}}$

The electrical field outside the spherical shell

$E = \dfrac{q}{\varepsilon _{0} \cdot (4 \cdot \pi \cdot r^2) }= \dfrac{q}{4 \cdot \pi \cdot \varepsilon _{0} \cdot r^2 }= \dfrac{q}{(4 \cdot \pi \cdot \varepsilon _{0} )\cdot r^2 }$

$k_e= \dfrac{1}{(4 \cdot \pi \cdot \varepsilon _{0} ) }$

Therefore, we have;

$E = \dfrac{k_e \cdot q}{ r^2 }$
