Gravitational potential energy = mass x height x gravity

So you would do 890 x 2.1 x gravity (which is 9.8 on earth)

Answer:

18,316.2

Explanation:

The formula for GPE is mgh, where

M = Mass of the object

G = Acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s^2 on Earth)

H = Height above ground

890 × 9.8 × 2.1 = 18,316.2

Show that the energy of a magnetic dipole m in a magnetic field B is U--m B

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

showm

Explanation:

Consider a dipole having magnetic moment 'm' is placed in magnetic field $\vec{B}$ then the torque exerted by the field on the dipole is

$\tau = m\times B$

$\tau=mBsin\alpha$

Now to rotate the dipole in the field to its final position the work required to be done is

$U=\int \tau d\alpha$

$U=\int mBsin\alpha d\alpha$

$U= -mBcos\alpha$

$U=-\vec{m\times \vec{B}}$

Minimum energy mB is for the case when m is anti parallel to B.

Minimum energy -mB is for the case when m is parallel to B.

A heater is being designed that uses a coil of 14-gauge nichrome wire to generate 300 W using a voltage of V = 110 V . How long

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

The length of the wire is 83.2 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Power of heater, P = 300 W

Voltage, V = 110 V

The resistivity of nichrome wire is, $\rho=100\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m$

The electric power of a wire is given by :

$P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}\\\\R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\\R=\dfrac{(110)^2}{300}\\\\R=40.34\ \Omega$

Area of cross section of the wire is :

$A=\pi r^2\\\\A=\pi (0.000815)^2\\\\A=2.08\times 10^{-6}\ m^2$

Resistance of a material is given by :

$R=\rho \dfrac{L}{A}\\\\L=\dfrac{RA}{\rho}\\\\L=\dfrac{40\times 2.08\times 10^{-6}}{10^{-6}}\\\\L=83.2\ m$

So, the length of the wire is 83.2 m. Hence, this is the required solution.
