Answer:

180,000

Explanation:

Frequency is a quantity that is measured in Hertz [Hz] and it represents the number of rotations per second.

A motor with a frequency of 50 Hz will rotate 50 times per second.

Since we don't want to know how many times it rotates per second, but per hour. The first step is to find how many seconds there are in an hour and then multiply that amount by 50.

Seconds in an hour:

there are 60 seconds per minute, and 60 minutes per hour, thus there are

60*60 = <u>3,600 seconds in an hour</u>

We know that the motor will rotate 50 times per second so to find the number of rotations in 1 hour =  3,600 seconds we multiply:

50*3,600 = 180,000 rotations

Based on Archimedes' principle, we know that if an object displaces a given weight of water, then the object is being buoyed up

True. If the amount displaced is more than the mass, it floats. If the amount is less than the mass, it will sink.

A 3" diameter germanium wafer that is 0.020" thick at 300K has 1.015 x 10^17 As atoms added to it. What is the resistivity of th
Ber [7]

Answer:

0.546 ohm / μm

Explanation:

Given that :

N = 1.015 * 10^17

Electron mobility, u = 3900

Hole mobility, h = 1900

Ng = 4.42 x10^22

q = 1.6*10^-19

Resistivity = 1/qNu

Resistivsity (R) = 1/(1.6*10^-19 * 1.015 * 10^17 * 3900)

= 0.01578880889 ohm /cm

Resistivity of germanium :

R = 1 / 2q * sqrt(Ng) * sqrt(u*h)

R = 1 / 2 * 1.6*10^-19 * sqrt(4.42 x10^22) * sqrt(3900*1900)

R = 1 /0.0001831

R = 5461.4964 ohm /cm

5461.4964 / 10000

0.546 ohm / μm

Lostsunrise [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>Metals are both good heat conductors and good electrical conductors because of the </em><em>looseness of outer electrons in metal atoms</em>

_________________________

Unlike nonmetals that are insulators, most metals are both good heat conductors and good electrical conductors. This is because within a solid metal there is one or more outer electrons in each atom that become detached and can move freely through the solid metal, but <em>what about the other electrons?</em>  Well, the y remain bound to the positively charged nuclei, and bound within the material in almost fixed positions. On the other hand, insulators are material having few, very few or no electrons that are allowed to move freely through  the material.

Let’s look at a radio-controlled model car. Suppose that at time t1=2.0st1=2.0s the car has components of velocity vx=1.0m/svx=1
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

a_x=6\ \text{m/s}^2 and a_y=0\ \text{m/s}^2

Magnitude of accleration is 6\ \text{m/s}^2 and the direction is 0^{\circ}

Explanation:

t_1=2\ \text{s}

v_x=1\ \text{m/s}

v_y=3\ \text{m/s}

t_2=2.5\ \text{s}

v_x=4\ \text{m/s}

v_y=3\ \text{m/s}

Average acceleration in the different axes

a_x=\dfrac{\Delta v_x}{\Delta t}\\\Rightarrow a_x=\dfrac{4-1}{2.5-2}\\\Rightarrow a_x=6\ \text{m/s}^2

a_y=\dfrac{\Delta v_y}{\Delta t}\\\Rightarrow a_y=\dfrac{3-3}{2.5-2}\\\Rightarrow a_y=0\ \text{m/s}^2

The components of the acceleration is a_x=6\ \text{m/s}^2 and a_y=0\ \text{m/s}^2

The magnitude of acceleration

a=\sqrt{a_x^2+a_y^2}\\\Rightarrow a=\sqrt{6^2+0^2}\\\Rightarrow a=6\ \text{m/s}^2

Direction

\theta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{a_y}{a_x}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{0}{6}\\\Rightarrow \theta=0^{\circ}

The magnitude of accleration is 6\ \text{m/s}^2 and the direction is 0^{\circ}.
