What is the difference between the equilibrium vector and the resultant vector

Physics
1 answer:
Tresset [83]3 years ago
8 0

the difference between a resultant and equilibrant vector is that resultant vector is a direct quantity, one with both magnitude and direction, while the equilibrant vector is a force equal to, but opposite of, the resultant sum of vector forces, that force which balances other forces.

How many ohms of resistance must be present in a circuit that has 240 volts and a current of 15 amps?
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

16 ohms

Explanation:

V= I ⋅ R

where,  V  is the net potential difference in the circuit,  I  is the current in the circuit and  R  is the net resistance of the circuit.  

In this case,  V = 240  volts,  I = 15  amperes.

240 = 15 ⋅ R  

⇒ R = 240/ 15 = 16  ohms

The density of a block of wood is 694 kg/m3. Its mass is 689 g. We tie the block to the bottom of a swimming pool using a single
Serhud [2]

Answer:

<em>The tension in the string = 2.065 N</em>

Explanation:

From Archimedes principle,

R.d = density of the wood block/density of water = weight of the wood block/Upthrust of the wood block in water.

R.d = D₁/D₂ = W/U

W/U =D₁/D₂.................................. Equation 1

Where W = weight of the wood block, U = upthrust of the wood block in water, D₁ = Density of the wood block, D₂ = Density of water.

Making U the subject of the equation,

U = WD₂/D₁........................... Equation 2

Given: W =  mg = (689/1000)9.8 = 6.75 N,  D₁ = 694 kg/m³, D₂ = 1000 kg/m³.

Substituting these values into equation 2,

U = 6.75(694)/1000

U = 4684.5/1000

U = 4.685 N.

Note: Three forces act on the wood block in the pool. and they are

(i) The weight(W) acting downs

(ii) The upthrust (U) acting upwards,

(iii) The Tension (T) in the string, acting upwards.

Thus,

W = U+T

T = W - U ................................. Equation 3

Where W = 6.75 N, U = 4.685 N

T = 6.75 - 4.685

T = 2.065 N.

T = 2.065 N

<em>Thus the tension in the string = 2.065 N</em>

What is the speed of an object after falling (from rest) a distance of 9.80 meters near the surface of the Earth? Assume air
madam [21]

Hi there!

We can use the kinematic equation:

v_f^2 = v_i^2 + 2ad

vf = Final velocity (? m/s)

vi = initial velocity (0 m/s, dropped from rest)

a = acceleration (due to gravity, 9.8 m/s²)

d = distance (9.8 m)

Simplify the equation to solve for vf:

v_f^2 = 0 + 2ad\\\\v_f = \sqrt{2ad}

Substitute in the given values:

v_f = \sqrt{2(9.8)(9.8)} = \boxed{13.86 m/s}
