1 answer:

5 0

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.

Nerve cells transmit electric signals through their long tubular axons. These signals propagate due to a sudden rush of Na+ ions

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

$I = \frac{9.12x10^{-8} C}{0.007 s}= 1.30285 x10^{-5} \frac{C}{s}=1.30285 x10^{-5} A = 13.02 \mu A$

Explanation:

For this case we have the following info given:

Number of Na+ ions $5.7 x10^{11} ions$

Each ion have a charge of +e and the crage of the electron is $1.6 x10^{-19}C$

The time is given $t = 7 ms$ if we convert this into seconds we got:

$t = 7ms * \frac{1s}{1000 ms}= 0.007s$

Now we can use the following formula given from the current passing thourhg a meter of nerve axon given by:

$Q = Ne$

Where N represent the number of ions, e the charge of the electron and Q the total charge

If we replace on this case we have this:

$Q= 5.7x10^{11} * (1.6 x10^{-19}C) = 9.12x10^{-8} C$

And from the general definition of current we know that:

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

And since we know the total charge Q and the time we can replace:

$I = \frac{9.12x10^{-8} C}{0.007 s}= 1.30285 x10^{-5} \frac{C}{s}=1.30285 x10^{-5} A = 13.02 \mu A$

The current during the inflow charge in the meter axon for this case is $13.02 \mu A$

Suppose a plane accelerates from rest for 30 s, achieving a takeoff speed of 80 m/s after traveling a distance of 1200 m down th

Margaret [11]

Answer:

300 m

Explanation:

The train accelerate from the rest so u = 0 m/sec

Final speed that is v = 80 m/sec

Time t = 30 sec

The distance traveled by first plane = 1200 m

We know the equation of motion $S=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$ where s is distance a is acceleration and u is initial velocity

Using this equation for first plane $1200=0\times 30+\frac{1}{2}a30^2$

$a=2.67\frac{m}{sec^2}$

As the acceleration is same for both the plane so a for second plane will be 2.67 $\frac{m}{sec^2}$

The another equation of motion is $v^2=u^2+2as$ using this equation for second plane $40^2=0+2\times 2.67\times s$

s = 300 m

[TRUE/FALSE] If an object is moving at constant velocity it must be in equilibrium.

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

objects with constant velocity also have zero net external force. this means the forces on the object are balanced. this mean they are in equilibrium

Three observers watch a train pull away from a station toward the right of the platform. Observer A is in one of the train’s car

juin [17]

Observer A is moving inside the train

so here observer A will not be able to see the change in position of train as he is standing in the same reference frame

So here as per observer A the train will remain at rest and its not moving at all

Observer B is standing on the platform so here it is a stationary reference frame which is outside the moving body

So here observer B will see the actual motion of train which is moving in forward direction away from the platform

Observer C is inside other train which is moving in opposite direction on parallel track. So as per observer C the train is coming nearer to him at faster speed then the actual speed because they are moving in opposite direction

So the distance between them will decrease at faster rate

Now as per Newton's II law

F = ma

Now if train apply the brakes the net force on it will be opposite to its motion

So we can say

- F = ma

$a = \frac{-F}{m}$

so here acceleration negative will show that train will get slower and its distance with respect to us is now increasing with less rate

It is not affected by the gravity because the gravity will cause the weight of train and this weight is always counterbalanced by normal force on the train

So there is no effect on train motion
