The speed of the snail is given by:

$v=\frac{S}{t}$

where S is the distance covered by the snail and t the time taken.

The snail in the problem moves by S=18 mm in t=24 s, therefore its speed is

$v=\frac{S}{t}=\frac{18 mm}{24 s}=0.75 mm/s$

Determine the length of the tungsten filament in a 100 watt lightbulb given: (i) the resistivity of tungsten is 5.6 × 10−8 Ω · m

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

0.34148 m

Explanation:

$\rho$ = Resistivity of tungsten = $5.6\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega m$

d = Diameter = 0.0018 inch

r = Radius = $\dfrac{r}{2}=\dfrac{0.0018}{2}=0.0009\ in$

$r=0.0009\times 0.0254=0.00002286\ m$

$\alpha$ = Temperature coefficient of tungsten = $0.0045 /^{\circ}C$

Power is given by

$P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}\\\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{120^2}{100}\\\Rightarrow R=144\ \Omega$

We have the equation

$R_2=R_1[1+\alpha(T_2-T_1)]\\\Rightarrow R_1=\dfrac{R_2}{1+\alpha(T_2-T_1)}\\\Rightarrow R_1=\dfrac{144}{1+0.0045(2550-25)}\\\Rightarrow R_1=11.64812\ \Omega$

Resistance is given by

$R=\rho\dfrac{l}{A}\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{RA}{\rho}\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{11.64812\times \pi (0.00002286)^2}{5.6\times 10^{-8}}\\\Rightarrow l=0.34148\ m$

The length of the filament is 0.34148 m

1. A runner has an initial speed of 2 [m/s] and slowly speeds up with a constant acceleration of

zvonat [6]

Answer:

Final Velocity = 4.9 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;. Initial velocity; u = 2 m/s

Constant Acceleration; a = 0.1 m/s²

Distance; s = 100 m

To find the final velocity(v), we will use one of Newton's equations of motion;

v² = u² + 2as

Plugging in the relevant values to give;

v² = 2² + 2(0.1 × 100)

v² = 4 + 20

v² = 24

v = √24

v = 4.9 m/s
