D = distance between th two trains at the start of the motion = 100 miles
V = speed of the faster train towards slower train = 60 mph
v = speed of the slower train towards faster train = 40 mph
t = time taken by the two trains to collide = ?
time taken by the two trains to collide is given as
t = D/(V + v)
t = 100/(60 + 40) = 1 h
v' = speed of the bird = 90 mph
d = distance traveled by the bird
distance traveled by the bird is given as
d = v' t
d = 90 x 1
d = 90 miles
Two physical systems are in thermal equilibrium if no heat flows between them when they are connected by a path permeable to heat. Thermal equilibrium obeys the zeroth law of thermodynamics. A system is said to be in thermal equilibrium with itself if the temperature within the system is spatially and temporally uniform.
Systems in thermodynamic equilibrium are always in thermal equilibrium, but the converse is not always true. If the connection between the systems allows transfer of energy as heat but does not allow transfer of matter or transfer of energy as work, the two systems may reach thermal equilibrium without reaching thermodynamic equilibrium.
where are the answer choises
Given Information:
Current = I = 20 A
Diameter = d = 0.205 cm = 0.00205 m
Length of wire = L = 1 m
Required Information:
Energy produced = P = ?
Answer:
P = 2.03 J/s
Explanation:
We know that power required in a wire is
P = I²R
and R = ρL/A
Where ρ is the resistivity of the copper wire 1.68x10⁻⁸ Ω.m
L is the length of the wire and A is the area of the cross-section and is given by
A = πr²
A = π(d/2)²
A = π(0.00205/2)²
A = 3.3x10⁻⁶ m²
R = ρL/A
R = 1.68x10⁻⁸*(1)/3.3x10⁻⁶
R = 5.09x10⁻³ Ω
P = I²R
P = (20)²*5.09x10⁻³
P = 2.03 Watts or P = 2.03 J/s
Therefore, 2.03 J/s of energy is produced in 1.00 m of 12-gauge copper wire carrying a current of 20 A
