What happens to the pwc when the throttle is released?

1 answer:

5 0

PWC operators must keep in mind that a jet drive needs moving water through the drive nozzle for maneuverability. In other term, you must have power applied in order to uphold steering control. If the engine shuts off during operation or If you release the throttle to idle, you will lose all steering control. In either situation, the PWC will remain in the direction it was headed before the throttle was released or the engine was shut off. Action of the steering control will have no outcome. If you are approaching a dock, shore, or other vessel at a speed bigger than you can control and you release the throttle to idle or shut off the engine, you won’t have maneuvering capability and the PWC will stay its forward movement.

Through what potential difference should electrons be accelerated so that their speed is 1.0 % of the speed of light when they h

omeli [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Considering non - relativistic approach : ----

Speed of electron = 1 % of speed of light

= .01 x 3 x 10⁸ m /s

= 3 x 10⁶ m /s

Kinetic energy of electron = 1/2 m v²

= .5 x 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ x ( 3 x 10⁶ )²

= 40.95 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Kinetic energy in electron comes from lose of electrical energy equal to

Ve where V is potential difference under which electron is accelerated and e is electronic charge .

V x e = kinetic energy of electron

V x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ = 40.95 x 10⁻¹⁹

V = 25.6 Volt .

The complete question is

A merry-go-round spins freely when Diego moves quickly to the center along a radius of the merry-go-round. As he does this, It is true to say that

A) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed increases.

B) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed decreases.

C) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed remains the same.

D) the moment of inertia of the system increases and the angular speed increases.

E) the moment of inertia of the system increases and the angular speed decreases

In angular momentum conservation, the initial angular momentum of the system is conserved, and is equal to the final angular momentum of the system. The equation of this angular momentum conservation is given as

$I_{1} w_{1} = I_{2} w_{2}$ ....1

where $I_{1}$ and $I_{2}$ are the initial and final moment of inertia respectively.

and $w_{1}$ and $w_{2}$ are the initial and final angular speed respectively.

Also, we know that the moment of inertia of a rotating body is given as

$I = mr^{2}$ ....2

where $m$ is the mass of the rotating body,

and $r$ is the radius of the rotating body from its center.

We can see from equation 2 that decreasing the radius of rotation of the body will decrease the moment of inertia of the body.

From equation 1, we see that in order for the angular momentum to be conserved, the decrease from $I_{1}$ to $I_{2}$ will cause the angular speed of the system to increase from $w_{1}$ to $w_{2}$ .

From this we can clearly see that reducing the radius of rotation will decrease the moment of inertia, and increase the angular speed.

What is the frequency of a sound wave directly related to?

Mama L [17]

The frequency of a sound wave is the number of cycles of a sound wave per second or Hertz (Hz). The frequency can be calculated by dividing wavelength by time (Figure 1.3). A small wavelength will yield a higher frequency, whereas a larger wavelength will yield a smaller frequency.
