Answer:

Damp Proofing:

Explanation:

The presence of damp proofing is very necessary to maintain the health of a structure. DPC plays an important role in all types of buildings and it should be necessary to know about the importance, requirements, and properties of DPC. In many of the buildings all over the world, the rising damp may be due to a damaged damp-proof course, or sometimes, there may be not any damp proof course in a building.

A body of mass 20kg initially at rest is subjected to a force of 40m for 15sec. Calculate the change in k.e
Ede4ka [16]

Explanation:

mass(m)=20kg

velocity(v)=d/t=2.67

k.e=?

now,

k.e=1/2mv^2

=1/2*20*(2.67)^2

=71J

An engine moves a motorboat through water at a constant velocity of 22 meters/second. If the force exerted by the motor on the b
trapecia [35]

Answer: Option B: 1.3×10⁵ W

Explanation:

Power = \frac{Work \hspace{1mm} done}{Time}

P=\frac{W}{t}

Work Done, W= F.s

Where s is displacement in the direction of force and F is force.

\Rightarrow P = \frac{F.s}{t} =F \times \frac{s}{t}=F.v

where, v is the velocity.

It is given that, F = 5.75 × 10³N

v = 22 m/s

P = 5.75 × 10³N×22 m/s = 126.5 × 10³ W ≈1.3×10⁵W

Thus, the correct option is B

A 14.0 gauge copper wire of diameter 1.628 mm carries a current of 12.0 mA . A) What is the potential difference across a 1.80 m
Serga [27]

Answer: a) 139.4 μV; b) 129.6 μV

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to use the Ohm law given by:

V=R*I whre R= ρ *L/A  where ρ;L and A are the resistivity, length and cross section of teh wire.

Then we have:

for cooper R=1.71 *10^-8* 1.8/(0.001628)^2= 11.61 * 10^-3Ω

and for silver R= 1.58 *10^-8* 1.8/(0.001628)^2=10.80 * 10^-3Ω

Finalle we calculate the potential difference (V) for both wires:

Vcooper=11.62* 10^-3* 12 * 10^-3=139.410^-6 V

V silver= 10.80 10^-3* 12 * 10^-3=129.6 10^-6 V
