Answer:

=72000 Newtons

Explanation:

Pressure=Force/Area

Thus, Force= Pressure×Area

In this scenario, the weight of the car is the force.

The total absolute pressure in the tires is :2×10⁵Pa×4=8×10⁵ Pa

The total area in contact with the ground is:0.024m²×4=0.096m²

Thus the weight of the car=(8×10⁵Pa)×0.096m²

=72000 Newtons

You are on the roof of the physics building, 46.0 above the ground . Your physics professor, who is 1.80 tall, is walking alongs
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

3.6m

Explanation:

if you are at a building that is 46m above the ground, and the professor is 1.80m, the egg must fall:

46m - 1.80m = 44.2m

the egg must fall for 44.2m to land on the head of the professor.

Now, how many time this takes?

we have to use the following free fall equation:

h=v_{0}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where h is the height, v_{0} is the initial velocity, in this case v_{0}=0. g is the acceleration of gravity: g=9.81m/s and t is time, thus:

h=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

clearing for time:

2h=gt^2\\\frac{2h}{g}=t^2\\\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} =t

we know that the egg has to fall for 44.2m, so h=44.2, and g=9.81m/s, so we the time is:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2(44.2m)}{9.8m/s^2} }=\sqrt{\frac{88.4m}{9.81m/s^2} } =\sqrt{9.011s^2}= 3.002s

Finally, if the professor has a speed of v=1.2m/s, it has to be at a distance:

d=vt

and t=3.002s:

d=(1.2m/s)(3.002s)=3.6m

so the answer is the professor has to be 3.6m far from the building when you release the egg

A certain electric furnace consumes 24 kw when it is connected to a 240-v line. what is the resistance of the furnace?
weeeeeb [17]

One very handy electrical formula is

Power dissipated by a resistance = (Voltage)²/(resistance) .

24 kilowatts = (240 v)² / Resistance

Multiply each side by (Resistance):

(Resistance) x (24 kilowatts) = (240 v)²

Divide each side by (24 kilowatts):

Resistance = (240 v)² / (24,000 watts)

Resistance = (57,600 / 24,000) (volt² / volt · Amp)

Resistance = 2.4 (volt/Amp)

Resistance = 2.4 Ohms

An electric dipole consisting of charges of magnitude 2.00 nC separated by 8.40 μm is in an electric field of strength 1390 N/C.
amid [387]

Answer:

(a) The magnitude of the electric dipole moment is 1.68 x 10⁻¹⁴ C.m

(b) The difference between the potential energies ΔU, is 4.6704 x 10⁻¹¹ J

Explanation:

Given;

magnitude of charge, q = 2 nC = 2 x 10⁻⁹ C

distance of separation, d = 8.4 μm = 8.4 x 10⁻⁶ m

strength of electric field, E = 1390 N/C

(a) the magnitude of the electric dipole moment

p = qd

p = (2 x 10⁻⁹ C)(8.4 x 10⁻⁶ m)

p = 1.68 x 10⁻¹⁴ C.m

(b) the difference between the potential energies for dipole orientations parallel and anti-parallel to E

ΔU = U(180) - U(0)

ΔU = 2pE

ΔU = 2(1.68 x 10⁻¹⁴ )(1390)

ΔU = 4.6704 x 10⁻¹¹ J
