<u>Rated </u>

A t-rated switch may be used to (its/a) <u>Rated</u> current capacity current capacity when controlling an incandescent lighting load.

<h3>What is "current rating"?</h3>
  • The greatest current that a fuse is rated to carry for an infinite duration without significantly degrading the fuse element is known as the current rating.
  • There is also a large selection of power switching transistors that have voltage ratings well over 1000V and current ratings up to several hundred amps.

<h3>What does the term "rated current" mean?</h3>
  • When an electrical device receives its rated voltage and outputs its rated power, it flows at its rated current.
  • So, when a device is designed for a certain amperage, that amperage is referred to as the equipment's rated current.

<h3>What does electrical "rated" mean?</h3>
  • An electrical appliance's rating reveals the voltage range at which it is intended to operate as well as the current consumption at that range.
  • These numbers are typically shown on a rating plate that is fastened to the device, such as 230 volts, 3 amps.

A rocket passes you at a speed of 0.85c, and you measure its length to be 35.0 m. What is its measured length when at rest?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

66.4 m

Explanation:

To solve the problem, we can use the length contraction formula, which states that the length observed in the reference frame moving with the object (the rocket) is given by

L=L_0 \sqrt{1-(\frac{v}{c})^2}

where

L_0 is the proper length (the length measured from an observer at rest)

v is the speed of the object (the rocket)

c is the speed of light

Here we know

v = 0.85c

L = 35.0 m

So we can re-arrange the equation to find the length of the rocket at rest:

L_0 = \frac{L}{\sqrt{1-(\frac{v}{c})^2}}=\frac{35.0}{\sqrt{1-(\frac{0.85c}{c})^2}}=66.4 m

An aluminum-alloy rod has a length of 10.0 cm at 20°C and a length of 10.015 cm at the boiling point of water (1000C). (a) What
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

a.  9.99625 cm b. 68 °C

Explanation:

(a) What is the length of the rod at the freezing point of water (0 0C)?

Before we find the length of the rod, we need to find the coefficient of linear expansion, α = (L - L₀)/[L₀(T - T₀)] where L₀ = length of rod at temperature T₀ = 10.0 cm, T₀ = 20 °C, L = length of rod at temperature T = 10.015 cm and T = 100 °C

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

α = (L - L₀)/[L₀(T - T₀)]

α = (10.015 cm - 10.0 cm)/[10.0 cm(100 °C - 20 °C)]

α = 0.015 cm/[10.0 cm × 80 °C]

α = 0.015 cm/[800.0 cm °C]

α = 0.00001875 /°C

We now find the length L₁ at T₁ = 0 °C from

L₁ = L₀(1 + α(T₁ - T₀))

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

L₁ = L₀(1 + α(T₁ - T₀))

L₁ = 10.0 cm[1 +  0.00001875 /°C(0° C - 20 °C)]

L₁ = 10.0 cm[1 +  0.00001875 /°C × -20° C]

L₁ = 10.0 cm[1 - 0.000375]

L₁ = 10.0 cm[0.999625]

L₁ = 9.99625 cm

(b) What is the temperature if the length of the rod is 10.009 cm?

With length L₃ = 10.009 cm at temperature T₃, using

L₃ = L₀(1 + α(T₃ - T₀))

making T₃ subject of the formula, we have

L₃/L₀ = 1 + α(T₃ - T₀)

L₃/L₀ - 1 = α(T₃ - T₀)

T₃ - T₀ = (L₃/L₀ - 1)/α

T₃ = T₀ + (L₃/L₀ - 1)/α

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

T₃ = 20 °C + (10.009 cm/10.0 cm - 1)/0.00001875 /°C

T₃ = 20 °C + (1.0009 - 1)/0.00001875 /°C

T₃ = 20 °C + 0.0009/0.00001875 /°C

T₃ = 20 °C + 48 °C

T₃ = 68 °C

A person is initially driving a car east down a straight road. the magnitude of the instantaneous acceleration is decreasing wit
Alexxandr [17]
By definition, acceleration is the change in velocity per change of time. As time passes by, the time increases in value. So, when the acceleration is decreasing while the time is increasing, then that means that the change of velocity is also decreasing with time. So, optimally, the initial velocity and the velocity at any time are very relatively close to each other,
