The seatbelt across your chest should have about ________ fist width of slack.

1 answer:

7 0

It should have 1 or even less. Modern seat-belts have almost no slack when the sensors detect that the seat-belt has been rapidly expanded. This is done so to hold you in place and prevent you from slamming against the seat-belt if you have a collision at high speeds.

Q.Solve the following circuit find total resistance RT. Also find value of voltage across resister RC.

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

R_total = 14.57 Ω , V_C = 1.176 V

Explanation:

To solve this circuit we are going to find the equivalent resistance of each branch, let's remember

* Serial resistance

$R_{eq}$ = ∑ $R_{i}$

* For resistance in parallel

1 / R_{eq} = ∑ 1/R_{i}

We solve the two branches of the wheatstone bridge

Series resistors

Branch B

R_B = Rb + R4

R_B = 2 + 18

R_B = 20 Ω

Branch C

R_C5 = Rc + R5

R_C5 = 3 + 12

R_C5 = 15 Ω

Resistance in parallel R_B and R_C5

1 / R_BC = 1 / R_B + 1 / R_C5

1 / R_BC = 1/20 + 1/15 = 0.116666

R_BC = 8.57 Ω

Now we have a single branch, we solve the series resistance

R_total = R_A + R_BC

R_total = 6 + 8.57

R_total = 14.57 Ω

b) they ask us for the voltage in the resistance R_C

Let's remember that the voltage in a series circuit is the sum of the voltages

10 = V_a + V_BC

10 = i R_a + i R_BC = i (R_a + R_BC)

i = 10 / (R_a + R_BC)

i = 10 / (14.57)

i = 0.6863 A

The current in the series circuit is constant

V_BC = i R_BC

V_BC = 0.6863 8.57

V_BC = 5.8819 V

This voltage is divided in the bridge, for the two branches in parallel it is the same, but the resistance is different in each branch.

Branch C

V_BC = i R_C5

i = V_BC / R_C5

i = 5.8819 / 15

i = 0.39213 A

In this branch we have two resistors in series, let's remember that the current in a series circuit is constant

V_C = i R_C

V_C = 0.39213 3

V_C = 1.176 V

A ball is thrown vertically down from the edge of a cliff with a speed of 4 m/s, how high is the cliff, if it took 12 s for the

Vesna [10]

Answer:

The height of the cliff from which the ball was dropped from is 224.4m.

\overline{v}={\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}}

Given the data in the question;

Initial velocity of the ball;

Time taken by the ball to reach the ground;

Distance or Height of the cliff from which the ball was thrown from;

To get the height of the Cliff, we use the Second Equation of Motion:

Where s is the distance or height, is the initial velocity, t is the time and a is the acceleration. Since the ball was thrown down from a certain height (cliff), its is now under the influence of gravity. acceleration due to gravity;

Hence, the equation becomes

We substitute the given values into the equation

Therefore, the height of the cliff from which the ball was dropped from is 224.4m

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

5.88×10⁸ W

Explanation:

Power = change in energy / time

P = mgh / t

P = (m/t) gh

P = (1.2×10⁶ kg/s) (9.8 m/s²) (50.0 m)

P = 5.88×10⁸ W

The High Speed Industrial Drill With Diameter Of 98 Cm Develops 5.85hp At 1900 Rpm. What Torque And Force Is Applied To The Dril

STatiana [176]

Answer:

The torque applied by the drill bit is T = 16.2 Nm and the cutting force of the drill bit is F = 33 N.

Explanation:

Given:-

- The diameter of the drill bit, d = 98 cm

- The power at which drill works, P = 5.85 hp

- The rotational speed of drill, N = 1900 rpm

Find:-

What Torque And Force Is Applied To The Drill Bit?

Solution:-

- The amount of torque (T) generated at the periphery of the cutting edges of the drilling bit when it is driven at a power of (P) horsepower at some rotational speed (N).

- The relation between these quantities is given:

T = 5252*P / N

T = 5252*5.85 / 1900

T = 16.171 Nm

- The force (F) applied at the periphery of the drill bit cutting edge at a distance of radius from the center of drill bit can be determined from the definition of Torque (T) being a cross product of the Force (F) and a moment arm (r):

T = F*r

Where, r = d / 2

F = 2T / d

F = 2*16.171 / 0.98

F = 33 N

Answer: The torque applied by the drill bit is T = 16.2 Nm and the cutting force of the drill bit is F = 33 N.
