Answer:

ΔV=0.484mV

Explanation:

The potential difference across the end of conductor that obeys Ohms law:

ΔV=IR

Where I is current

R is resistance

The resistance of a cylindrical conductor is related to its resistivity p,Length L and cross section area A

R=(pL)/A

Given data

Length L=3.87 cm =0.0387m

Diameter d=2.11 cm =0.0211 m

Current I=165 A

Resistivity of aluminum p=2.65×10⁻⁸ ohms

So

ΔV=IR

=I(\frac{pL}{A})\\ =I(\frac{pL}{\pi r^{2} } )\\=I(\frac{pL}{\pi (d/2)^{2} } )\\=165A((\frac{(2.65*10^{-8})(0.0387m)}{\pi (0.0211m/2)^{2} } ))\\=4.84*10^{-4}V

ΔV=0.484mV

Block A, with mass mA, is initially at rest on a horizontal floor. Block B, with mass mB, is initially at rest on the horizontal
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

(E) μs(mA +mB)g

Explanation:

We can apply for mB:

∑ Fx = mB*a   (→)

⇒  Ffriction = mB*a   ⇒  a = Ffriction / mB = μs*N / mB

⇒ a = μs*(mB*g) / mB  ⇒   a = μs*g    (acceleration of the system)

Now, for mA we have

∑ Fx = mA*a   (→)

F - Ffriction = mA*a      ⇒  F = mA*a + Ffriction  

⇒     F = mA*(μs*g) + μs*(mB*g)   ⇒   F = μs*g*(mA + mB)

We must know that the friction acts only between the two blocks

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
