To determine the centroid of the object first moment of area is used.
To predict the resistance of a shape to bending and deflection which are directly proportional, second moment of area is used.
Answer:
(a) = -0.16%
(b) = smaller
Explanation:
given
power = 460 W
potential difference = 120 V
(a) what percentage will its heat output drop if the applied potential difference drops to 110 V ?
we know
.....................(i)
we need to find change in power
..............(ii)
from equations we get



(b)
if we increase temperature resistance will increase and decrease with decrease in temperature and we know power is inversely proportional to resistance so if potential decrease and it would cause drop in power
and due to this increment of heating power resistance will decrease so actual drop in the power would be smaller
Answer:
Average speed = 0.35 m/s
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Distance = 1.3 Km
Time = 62 minutes
To find the average speed in m/s;
First of all, we would convert the quantities to their standard unit (S.I) of measurement;
Conversion:
1.3 kilometres to meters = 1.3 * 1000 = 1300 meters
For time;
1 minute = 60 seconds
62 minutes = X
Cross-multiplying, we have;
X = 62 * 60
X = 3720 seconds
Now, we can calculate the average speed in m/s using the formula;


Average speed = 0.35 m/s
Add them together with south being negative. (-350 + 25) to get 325 south
