The new fuse will not blow up when a higher current is flowing and the circuit wont be broken and high current can heat up the object and cause a fire boom

You are trying to climb a castle wall so, from the ground, you throw a hook with a rope attached to it at 24.1 m/s at an angle o
Serhud [2]

Answer:

The value is  h  =  13.2 \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The speed of the rope with hook is u =  24 .1 \  m/s

     The angle is  \theta = 65.0^o

      The speed at which it hits top of the wall is  v  =  16.3 m/s

Generally from kinematic equation we have that

      v_y^2  =  u_y ^2 + *  2 (-g)* h

Here h is the height of the wall so

      [16.3 sin (65)]^2 =  [24.1 sin (65)] ^2+   2 (-9.8)* h

=>    h  =  13.2 \  m

On a cloudless day, the sunlight that reaches the surface of the earth has an intensity of about W/m². What is the electromagnet
Otrada [13]

Answer:

1.907 x 10⁻⁵ J.

Explanation:

Given,

Volume of space, V = 5.20 m³

Assuming the intensity of sunlight(S) be equal to 1.1 x 10³ W/m².

Electromagnetic energy = ?

E = \mu V

E = (\dfrac{S}{c})\times V

where c is the speed of light.

E = (\dfrac{1.1\times 10^3}{3\times 10^8})\times 5.20

E = 1.907\times 10^{-5}\ J

Hence, Electromagnetic energy is equal to 1.907 x 10⁻⁵ J.

A 50.6 g ball of copper has a net charge of 1.6 µc. what fraction of the copper's electrons have been removed? (each copper atom
Fynjy0 [20]
First figure out how many atoms you have with Avogadro's number.  Since there are 63.5 grams/mol and you have 50.6 grams, you have (50.6/63.5)6.022E23=4.7986E23 atoms.  Since there are 29 protons per atom, there are also 29 electrons per atom, so you should have a total of
29*4.7986E23=1.3916E25 electrons.
Since there is a positive charge you know some of these electrons are missing.  How many are missing can be found by dividing the charge you have by the charge on the electron:  1.6E-6/1.6022E-19 = 9.98627E12 electrons are missing.  
Now take the ratio of what is missing to what there should be:
9.98627E12/1.3916E25 = 7.1760873E-13

A test car starts from rest on a horizontal circular track of 115-m radius and increases its speed at a uniform rate to reach 90
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

a= 3.49 m/s^2

Explanation:

magnitude of total acceleration = sqrt{radial acceleration^2+tangential acceleration^2}.

we know that tangential acceleration a_t= change in velocity /time taken

now 90 km/h = 25 m/s

a_t = 25/17 = 1.47 m/s^2.

radial acceleration a_r = v^2/r

v= a_t×t = 1.47×13 = 19.11 m/s

a_r = 19.11^2/115=  3.175

now,

a= \sqrt{a_t^2+a_r^2}

a= \sqrt{1.47^2+3.175^2}

a= 3.49 m/s^2
