Answer:

1.4A

Explanation:

Ohm's law states the the current flowing through a metallic conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference applied across it provided that the temperature and other necessary physical conditions remain constant.

This law is mathematically rendered as follows;

$V=IR.................(1)$

where V is the potential difference, I is the current and R is the resistance of the conductor.

The current I could be determined by making it the subject of formula provided other parameters are known.

$I=\frac{V}{R}.....................(2)$

Given;

V = 3.5V

R = 3.5Ohms.

We then substitute these into equation(2) to obtain I.

$I=\frac{3.5}{2.5}\\I=1.4A$

A mass MM uniform solid cylinder of radius RR and a mass MM thin uniform spherical shell of radius RR roll without slipping. If

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

vcyl / vsph = 1.05

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of a rolling object can be expressed as the sum of a translational kinetic energy plus a rotational kinetic energy.
The traslational part can be written as follows:

$K_{trans} = \frac{1}{2}* M* v_{cm} ^{2} (1)$

The rotational part can be expressed as follows:

$K_{rot} = \frac{1}{2}* I* \omega ^{2} (2)$

where I = moment of Inertia regarding the axis of rotation.
ω = angular speed of the rotating object.
If the object has a radius R, and it rolls without slipping, there is a fixed relationship between the linear and angular speed, as follows:

$v = \omega * R (3)$

For a solid cylinder, I = M*R²/2 (4)
Replacing (3) and (4) in (2), we get:

$K_{rot} = \frac{1}{2}* \frac{1}{2} M*R^{2} * \frac{v_{cmc} ^{2}}{R^{2}} = \frac{1}{4}* M* v_{cmc}^{2} (5)$

Adding (5) and (1), we get the total kinetic energy for the solid cylinder, as follows:

$K_{cyl} = \frac{1}{2}* M* v_{cmc} ^{2} +\frac{1}{4}* M* v_{cmc}^{2} = \frac{3}{4}* M* v_{cmc} ^{2} (6)$

Repeating the same steps for the spherical shell:

$I_{sph} = \frac{2}{3} * M* R^{2} (7)$

$K_{rot} = \frac{1}{2}* \frac{2}{3} M*R^{2} * \frac{v_{cms} ^{2}}{R^{2}} = \frac{1}{3}* M* v_{cms}^{2} (8)$

$K_{sph} = \frac{1}{2}* M* v_{cms} ^{2} +\frac{1}{3}* M* v_{cms}^{2} = \frac{5}{6}* M* v_{cms} ^{2} (9)$

Since we know that both masses are equal each other, we can simplify (6) and (9), cancelling both masses out.
And since we also know that both objects have the same kinetic energy, this means that (6) are (9) are equal each other.
Rearranging, and taking square roots on both sides, we get:

$\frac{v_{cmc}}{v_{cms}} =\sqrt{\frac{10}{9} } = 1.05 (10)$

This means that the solid cylinder is 5% faster than the spherical shell, which is due to the larger moment of inertia for the shell.

If the charge remains the same but the radius of the sphere is doubled, the electric flux coming out of it will be

il63 [147K]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply Gauss's theorem for electric flux to solve the problem . According to this theorem , total electric flux coming out of a charge q can be given by the following relation .

∫ E ds = q / ε

Here q is assumed to be enclosed in a closed surface , E is electric intensity on the surface so

∫ E ds represents total electric flux passing through the closed surface due to charge q enclosed in the surface .

This also represents total flux coming out of the charge q on all sides .

This is equal to q / ε where ε is a constant called permittivity which depends upon the medium enclosing the charge . For air , its value is 8.85 x 10⁻¹² .

If charge remains the same but radius of the sphere enclosing the charge is doubled , the flux coming out of charge will remain the same .

It is so because flux coming out of charge q is q / ε . It does not depend upon surface area enclosing the charge . It depends upon two factors

1 ) charge q and

2 ) the permittivity of medium ε around .
