Both the answers from "Big D" and "N9KXF" are correct, but not complete. There is one aspect that needs to be remembered for AC power - the phase relationship between the voltage and current. 

<span>For AC power, the more complete equation for power is P = V * I * cosx, where x is the phase angle between voltage and current. </span>

<span>If the phase angle between voltage and current is 90 degrees, then even though current may be flowing, the total power over a cycle would be zero. Reactive elements like inductors and capacitors have a 90degree phase relationship between voltage and current. They do not "dissipate" energy. They store energy and give it back during different parts of the AC cycle. </span>

A 3kg horizontal disk of radius 0.2m rotates about its center with an angular velocity of 50rad/s. The edge of the horizontal di
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

From the information given:

The angular speed for the block \omega = 50 \ rad/s

Disk radius (r) = 0.2 m

The block Initial velocity is:

v = r \omega \\ \\  v = (0.2  \times 50) \\ \\  v= 10 \ m/s

Change in the block's angular speed is:

\Delta _{\omega} = \omega - 0 \\ \\ = 50 \ rad/s

However, on the disk, moment of inertIa is:

I= mr^2 \\ \\ I = (3 \times 0.2^2) \\ \\ I = 0.12 \ kgm^2

The time t = 10s

∴

Frictional torques by the wall on the disk is:

T = I \times (\dfrac{\Delta_{\omega}}{t}) \\ \\ = 0.12 \times (\dfrac{50}{10})  \\ \\ =0.6 \ N.m

Finally, the frictional force is calculated as:

F = \dfrac{T}r{}

F= \dfrac{0.6}{0.2} \\ \\ F = 3N

klemol [59]

Answer:

Sound wave types - longitudinal waves

Longitudinal waves - Vibrating string the creates sound in the way it moves.

Explanation:

Longitudinal waves have particles of the medium that are displaced in a parallel direction to energy transport.

A student pushes a 0.2 kg box against a spring causing the spring to compress 0.15 m. When the spring is released, it will launc
german

Answer:

The maximum height the box will reach is 1.72 m

Explanation:

F = k·x

Where

F = Force of the spring

k = The spring constant = 300 N/m

x  = Spring compression or stretch = 0.15 m

Therefore the force, F of the spring = 300 N/m×0.15 m = 45 N

Mass of box = 0.2 kg

Work, W, done by the spring = \frac{1}{2} kx^2 and the kinetic energy gained by the box is given by KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Since work done by the spring = kinetic energy gained by the box we have

\frac{1}{2} mv^2 =  \frac{1}{2} kx^2  therefore we have v = \sqrt{\frac{kx^2}{m} } = x\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } = 0.15\sqrt{\frac{300}{0.2} } = 5.81 m/s

Therefore the maximum height is given by

v² = 2·g·h or h = \frac{v^2}{2g} = \frac{5.81^{2} }{2*9.81} = 1.72 m
