BigorU [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

If you are using a machine that has a mechanical advantage of 2.5,you will have increased your EFFORT DISTANCE by 2.5 times. This allows you to REDUCE the EFFORT FORCE needed by 2.5 times.

A coil with an inductance of 2.3 H and a resistance of 14 Ω is suddenly connected to an ideal battery with ε = 100 V. At 0.13 s
klemol [59]

Given Information:

Resistance = R = 14 Ω

Inductance = L = 2.3 H

voltage = V = 100 V

time = t = 0.13 s

Required Information:

(a) energy is being stored in the magnetic field

(b) thermal energy is appearing in the resistance

(c) energy is being delivered by the battery?

Answer:

(a) energy is being stored in the magnetic field ≈ 219 watts

(b) thermal energy is appearing in the resistance ≈ 267 watts

(c) energy is being delivered by the battery ≈ 481 watts

Explanation:

The energy stored in the inductor is given by

U = \frac{1}{2} Li^{2}

The rate at which the energy is being stored in the inductor is given by

\frac{dU}{dt} = Li\frac{di}{dt} \: \: \: \: eq. 1

The current through the RL circuit is given by

i = \frac{V}{R} (1-e^{-\frac{t}{ \tau} })

Where τ is the the time constant and is given by

\tau = \frac{L}{R}\\ \tau = \frac{2.3}{14}\\ \tau = 0.16

i = \frac{110}{14} (1-e^{-\frac{t}{ 0.16} })\\i = 7.86(1-e^{-6.25t})\\\frac{di}{dt} = 49.125e^{-6.25t}

Therefore, eq. 1 becomes

\frac{dU}{dt} = (2.3)(7.86(1-e^{-6.25t}))(49.125e^{-6.25t})

At t = 0.13 seconds

\frac{dU}{dt} = (2.3) (4.37) (21.8)\\\frac{dU}{dt} = 219.11 \: watts

(b) thermal energy is appearing in the resistance

The thermal energy is given by

P = i^{2}R\\P = (7.86(1-e^{-6.25t}))^{2} \cdot 14\\P = (4.37)^{2}\cdot 14\\P = 267.35 \: watts

(c) energy is being delivered by the battery?

The energy delivered by battery is

P = Vi\\P = 110\cdot 4.37\\P = 481 \: watts

A 4.4 kg mess kit sliding on a frictionless surface explodes into two 2.2 kg parts, one moving at 2.9 m/s, due north, and the ot
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Original speed of the mess kit = 4.43 m/s at 50.67° north of east.

Explanation:

Let north represent positive y axis and east represent positive x axis.

Here momentum is conserved.

Let the initial velocity be v.

Initial momentum = 4.4 x v = 4.4v

Velocity of 2.2 kg moving at 2.9 m/s, due north = 2.9 j m/s

Velocity of 2.2 kg moving at 6.8 m/s, 35° north of east = 6.9 ( cos 35i + sin35 j ) = 5.62 i + 3.96 j m/s

Final momentum = 2.2 x 2.9 j + 2.2 x (5.62 i + 3.96 j) = 12.364 i + 15.092 j kgm/s

We have

         Initial momentum = Final momentum

         4.4v = 12.364 i + 15.092 j

         v =2.81 i + 3.43 j

Magnitude

        v=\sqrt{2.81^2+3.43^2}=4.43m/s

Direction

       \theta =tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{3.43}{2.81}\right )=50.67^0

       50.67° north of east.

Original speed of the mess kit = 4.43 m/s at 50.67° north of east.

For a spring oscillating in simple harmonic motion, at what point will the velocity of
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

equilibrium position.

Explanation:

In simple harmonic motion , velocity v(t) is given by,

v(t) = -ω A sin(ωt + φ)

where

ω = angular velocity of the corresponding circular motion

A = amplitude

t = time

φ = the initial angle of the corresponding circular motion when the motion begin.

v (t) get maximized when sin value is maximized , i.e. sin \alpha=1

The particle has maximum speed when it passes through the equilibrium position.

If an astronaut goes on a space walk outside the Space Station, she will quickly float away from the station unless she has a te
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

d. This statement is false. She and the Space Station share the same orbit and will stay together unless they are pushed apart.

Explanation:

In astronomy, orbit is simply a path of an object around another object in a space. That is, orbit is a path of a body that revolves around a gravitating center of mass. Examples of an orbit is are satellite around a planet, orbit around a center of galaxy, planet around the sun, and among others.

On the other hand, space station refers to a spacecraft that can support a group of human for long time in the orbit. Another names for space stations are orbital space station and orbital station.

Therefore, an astronaut goes on a space walk outside the Space Station shares the same orbit with the space station and they will stay together unless they are pushed apart.

How does the pupillary response prevent injury? What would happen without it?
Aleksandr [31]
Pupils dilate and constrict in order to allow an adequate amount of light to pass through the retina and vision. If there is not enough light and the pupils do not dilate, a small amount of light will pass to the retina and the vision will be damaged.
