Overcurrent protective devices are normally installed in a branch circuit from where the conductors receive their supply.

<h3>What is resistance?</h3>

Resistance is the obstruction of electrons in an electrically conducting material. The mathematical relation for resistance can be understood with the help of the empirical relation provided by Ohm's law.

V=IR

V is the voltage,I is the current and R is the resistance

The vercurrent protective devices are normally installed in a branch circuit from where the conductors receive their supply.

Thus, In a branch circuit, overcurrent safety devices are often located from where the conductors get their supply.

What is a travelling wave and a standing wave? What are the differences between both of them?
solniwko [45]
What is a travelling wave and a standing wave? What are the differences between both of them?

Answer: First of all we have to understand that a traveling wave is an organized disturbance traveling with a well defined wave speed. On the other hand standing waves are the combination of period waves with their reflected waves creating double sided waves. The differences between them is that standing waves have nodes and antinodes while a traveling wave does not.

I hope it helps, Regards.

Now she is out on a hike and comes to the left bank of a river. There is no bridge and the right bank is 10.0 mm away horizontal
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

a. 8.96 m/s b. 1.81 m

Explanation:

Here is the complete question.

a) A long jumper leaves the ground at 45° above the horizontal and lands 8.2 m away.

What is her "takeoff" speed  v 0 ?

b) Now she is out on a hike and comes to the left bank of a river. There is no bridge and the right bank is 10.0 m away horizontally and 2.5 m, vertically below.  

If she long jumps from the edge of the left bank at 45° with the speed calculated in part a), how long, or short, of the opposite bank will she land?

a. Since she lands 8.2 m away and leaves at an angle of 45 above the horizontal, this is a case of projectile motion. We calculate the takeoff speed v₀ from R = v₀²sin2θ/g. where R = range = 8.2 m.

So, v₀ = √gR/sin2θ = √9.8 × 8.2/sin(2×45) = √80.36/sin90 = √80.36 = 8.96 m/s.

b. We use R = v₀²sin2θ/g to calculate how long or short of the opposite bank she will land. With v₀ = 8.96 m/s and θ = 45

R = 8.96²sin(2 × 45)/9.8 = 80.2816/9.8 = 8.192 m.

So she land 8.192 m away from her bank. The distance away from the opposite bank she lands is 10 - 8.192 m = 1.808 m ≅ 1.81 m

A 60kg student traveling in a 1000kg car with a constant velocity has a kinetic energy of 1.2 x 10^4 J. What is the speedometer
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

17.64 km/h

Explanation:

mass of car, m = 1000 kg

Kinetic energy of car, K = 1.2 x 10^4 J

Let the speed of car is v.

Use the formula for kinetic energy.

K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

By substituting the values

1.2\times 10^{4} = \frac{1}{2}\times 1000\times v^{2}

v = 4.9 m/s

Now convert metre per second into km / h

We know that

1 km = 1000 m

1 h = 3600 second

So, v = \left (\frac{4.9}{1000}   \right )\times \left ( \frac{3600}{1} \right )

v = 17.64 km/h

Thus, the reading of speedometer is 17.64 km/h.

A uniform disk with mass 35.2 kg and radius 0.200 m is pivoted at its center about a horizontal, frictionless axle that is stati
Sergio [31]

Answer:

a) v = 1.01 m/s

b) a = 5.6 m/s²

Explanation:

a)

  • If the disk is initially at rest, and it is applied a constant force tangential to the rim, we can apply the following expression (that resembles Newton's 2nd law, applying to rigid bodies instead of point masses) as follows:

       \tau = I * \alpha  (1)

  • Where τ is the external torque applied to the body, I is the rotational inertia of the body regarding the axis of rotation, and α is the angular acceleration as a consequence of the torque.
  • Since the force is applied tangentially to the rim of the disk, it's perpendicular to the radius, so the torque can be calculated simply as follows:
  • τ = F*r (2)
  • For a solid uniform disk, the rotational inertia regarding an axle passing through its center  is just I = m*r²/2 (3).
  • Replacing (2) and (3) in (1), we can solve for α, as follows:

       \alpha = \frac{2*F}{m*r} = \frac{2*34.5N}{35.2kg*0.2m} = 9.8 rad/s2 (4)

  • Since the angular acceleration is constant, we can use the following kinematic equation:

        \omega_{f}^{2}  - \omega_{o}^{2} = 2*\Delta \theta * \alpha (5)

  • Prior to solve it, we need to convert the angle rotated from revs to radians, as follows:

       0.2 rev*\frac{2*\pi rad}{1 rev} = 1.3 rad (6)

  • Replacing (6) in (5), taking into account that ω₀ = 0 (due to the disk starts from rest), we can solve for ωf, as follows:

       \omega_{f} = \sqrt{2*\alpha *\Delta\theta} = \sqrt{2*1.3rad*9.8rad/s2} = 5.1 rad/sec (7)

  • Now, we know that there exists a fixed relationship the tangential speed and the angular speed, as follows:

        v = \omega * r (8)

  • where r is the radius of the circular movement. If we want to know the tangential speed of a point located on the rim of  the disk, r becomes the radius of the disk, 0.200 m.
  • Replacing this value and (7) in (8), we get:

       v= 5.1 rad/sec* 0.2 m = 1.01 m/s (9)

b)    

  • There exists a fixed relationship between the tangential and the angular acceleration in a circular movement, as follows:

       a_{t} = \alpha * r (9)

  • where r is the radius of the circular movement. In this case the point is located on the rim of the disk, so r becomes the radius of the disk.
  • Replacing this value and (4), in (9), we get:

       a_{t}  = 9.8 rad/s2 * 0.200 m = 1.96 m/s2 (10)

  • Now, the resultant acceleration of a point of the rim, in magnitude, is the vector sum of the tangential acceleration and the radial acceleration.
  • The radial acceleration is just the centripetal acceleration, that can be expressed as follows:

       a_{c} = \omega^{2} * r  (11)

  • Since we are asked to get the acceleration after the disk has rotated 0.2 rev, and we have just got the value of the angular speed after rotating this same angle, we can replace (7) in (11).
  • Since the point is located on the rim of the disk, r becomes simply the radius of the disk,, 0.200 m.
  • Replacing this value and (7) in (11) we get:

       a_{c} = \omega^{2} * r   = (5.1 rad/sec)^{2} * 0.200 m = 5.2 m/s2 (12)

  • The magnitude of the resultant acceleration will be simply the vector sum of the tangential and the radial acceleration.
  • Since both are perpendicular each other, we can find the resultant acceleration applying the Pythagorean Theorem to both perpendicular components, as follows:

       a = \sqrt{a_{t} ^{2} + a_{c} ^{2} } = \sqrt{(1.96m/s2)^{2} +(5.2m/s2)^{2} } = 5.6 m/s2 (13)
