Answer:

Advantage:  

Apparent solar time gives the exact location of sun in the sky according to your precise location.

Disadvantage:  

As the apparent solar time changes with the change in longitude. It is very difficult to track these changes in longitude. Hence, it is almost impossible to make plan for events.

Improvement in situation:

Situation can be improved using mean solar time because due to this people living in the longitude band agree upon a standard time. In this way, it is easy to plan for events.

A 1050 kg sports car is moving westbound at 13.0 m/s on a level road when it collides with a 6320 kg truck driving east on the s
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

(A) V = 9.89m/s

(B) U = -2.50m/s

(C) ΔK.E = –377047J

(D) ΔK.E = –257750J

Explanation:

The full solution can be found in the attachment below. The east has been chosen as the direction for positivity.

This problem involves the principle of momentum conservation. This principle states that the total momentum before collision is equal to the total momentum after collision. This problem is an inelastic kind of collision for which the momentum is conserved but the kinetic energy is not. The kinetic energy after collision is always lesser than that before collision. The balance is converted into heat by friction, and also sound energy.

See attachment below for full solution.

A copper wire and a tungsten wire of the same length have the same resistance. What is the ratio of the diameter of the copper w
spayn [35]

Answer:

Therefore the ratio of diameter of the copper to that of the tungsten is

\sqrt{3} :\sqrt{10}

Explanation:

Resistance: Resistance is defined to the ratio of voltage to the electricity.

The resistance of a wire is

  1. directly proportional to its length i.eR\propto l
  2. inversely proportional to its cross section area i.eR\propto \frac{1}{A}

Therefore

R=\rho\frac{l}{A}

ρ is the resistivity.

The unit of resistance is ohm (Ω).

The resistivity of copper(ρ₁) is 1.68×10⁻⁸ ohm-m

The resistivity of tungsten(ρ₂) is 5.6×10⁻⁸ ohm-m

For copper:

A=\pi r_1^2 =\pi (\frac{d_1}{2} )^2

R_1=\rho_1\frac{l_1}{\pi(\frac{d_1}{2})^2 }

\Rightarrow (\frac{d_1}{2})^2=\rho_1\frac{l_1}{\pi R_1 }......(1)

Again for tungsten:

R_2=\rho_2\frac{l_2}{\pi(\frac{d_2}{2})^2 }

\Rightarrow (\frac{d_2}{2})^2=\rho_2\frac{l_2}{\pi R_2 }........(2)

Given that R_1=R_2   and    l_1=l_2

Dividing the equation (1) and (2)

\Rightarrow\frac{ (\frac{d_1}{2})^2}{ (\frac{d_2}{2})^2}=\frac{\rho_1\frac{l_1}{\pi R_1 }}{\rho_2\frac{l_2}{\pi R_2 }}

\Rightarrow( \frac{d_1}{d_2} )^2=\frac{1.68\times 10^{-8}}{5.6\times 10^{-8}}   [since R_1=R_2   and    l_1=l_2]

\Rightarrow( \frac{d_1}{d_2} )=\sqrt{\frac{1.68\times 10^{-8}}{5.6\times 10^{-8}}}

\Rightarrow( \frac{d_1}{d_2} )=\sqrt{\frac{3}{10}}

\Rightarrow d_1:d_2=\sqrt{3} :\sqrt{10}

Therefore the ratio of diameter of the copper to that of the tungsten is

\sqrt{3} :\sqrt{10}
