Power =Force * Velocity

Velocity = Distance/Time = 2/0.5 = 4 m/s

Therefore,

P = 1000*4 = 4000 W = 4 kW

A series AC circuit contains a resistor, an inductor of 150 mH, a capacitor of 5.00 mF, and a generator with DVmax 5 240 V opera

yanalaym [24]

Given:

Inductance, L = 150 mH

Capacitance, C = 5.00 mF

$\Delta V_{max}$ = 240 V

frequency, f = 50Hz

$I_{max}$ = 100 mA

Solution:

To calculate the parameters of the given circuit series RLC circuit:

angular frequency, $\omega$ = $2\pi f = 2\pi \times50 = 100\pi$

a). Inductive reactance, $X_{L}$ is given by:

$\X_{L} = \omega L = 100\pi \times 150\times 10^{-3} = 47.12\Omega$

$X_{L} = 47.12\Omega$

b). The capacitive reactance, $X_{C}$ is given by:

$\X_{C} = \frac{1}{\omega C} = \frac{1}{2\pi fC} = \frac{1}{2\pi \times 50\times 5.00\times 10^{-3}} = 0.636\Omega$

$X_{C} = 0.636\Omega$

c). Impedance, Z = $\frac{\Delta V_{max}}{I_{max}} = \frac{240}{100\times 10^{-3}} = 2400\Omega$

$Z = 2400\Omega$

d). Resistance, R is given by:

$Z = \sqrt {R^{2} + (X_{L} - X_{C})}$

$2400^{2} = R^{2} + (47.12 - 0.636)^{2}$

$R = \sqrt {5757839.238}$

$R = 2399.5\Omega$

e). Phase angle between current and the generator voltage is given by:

$tan\phi = \frac{X_{L} - X_{C}}{R}$

$\phi =tan^{-1}( \frac{X_{L} - X_{C}}{R})$

$\phi =tan^{-1}( \frac{47.12 - 0.636}{2399.5}) = tan^{-1}{0.0.01937}$

$\phi = 1.11^{\circ}$

When a 5.0-kilogram cart moving with a speed of 2.8 meters per second on a horizontal surface collides with a 2.0 kilogram cart

mixer [17]

Here in all such collision type question we can use momentum conservation as we can see that there is no external force on this system

$m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}$

as we know that

$m_1 = 5 kg$

$m_2 = 2 kg$

$v_{1i} = 2.8 m/s$

$v_{2i} = 0 m/s$

now from above equation we have

$5(2.8) + 2(0) = m_1v+ m_2v$

$14 = (5+ 2) v$

$v = 2 m/s$

so the speed of combined system is 2 m/s

Which is true regarding the penetrating power of radiation? (2 points) Select one:

Monica [59]

Answer:d

Explanation:

Alpha particles are heaviest among alpha, beta and gamma so they have least amount of Penetration compared to both.

Gamma Particles are lightest among three so they can Penetrate most .

The order of Penetration is given by

Alpha< Beta < Gamma
