Answer:

Galvanometer

Explanation:

The device used to detect and measure current and voltage in a circuit is known as a galvanometer. It is based on the principle that a current carrying coil rotates which is suspended in a magnetic field.

Torque acts when a current carrying coil is kept in a magnetic field. It makes the needle of the galvanometer to deflect. The galvanometer is used as ammeter when a low resistance is connected in parallel and as voltmeter when high resistance is connected in series.

How does energy and temperature affect the density of fluids (liquids and gases)?

Alex Ar [27]

Answer: When a liquid or gas is heated, the molecules move faster, bump into each other, and spread apart. Because the molecules are spread apart, they take up more space. ... The molecules move more slowly and take up less space. Therefore temperature can affect density.

Answer:

Momentum is conserved.

Explanation:

-Momentum is conserved.

-By Newton's third law (For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.)-the change in momentum of gases in one direction must be balanced by an equal change in momentum of the spacecraft in the opposite direction.

Assume that the function x(t) represents the length of tape that has unwound as a function of time. find θ(t), the angle through

bekas [8.4K]

We know that arc length (x(t)) is given with the following formula:
$x(t)=\theta(t) r$
Where r is the radius of the barrel. We must keep in mind that as barrel rolls its radius decreases because less and less tape is left on it.
If we say that the thickness of the tape is D then with every full circle our radius shrinks by d. We can write this down mathematically:
$r(\theta)=r_0-\frac{D\cdot \theta}{2\pi}$
When we plug this back into the first equation we get:
$x(t)=\theta(r_0-\frac{D\theta}{2\pi}})\\ \frac{D\theta^2}{2\pi}-\theta r_0+x(t)=0\\$
We must solve this quadratic equation.
The final solution is:
$\theta=\frac{\pi r_0+\sqrt{\pi \left(-2Dx(t)+\pi r_0^2\right)}}{D},\:\theta=\frac{\pi r_0-\sqrt{\pi \left(-2Dx(t)+\pi r_0^2\right)}}{D}$
It is rather complicated solution. If we asume that the tape has no thickness we get simply:
$x(t)=\theta(r_0-\frac{D\theta}{2\pi}});D=0\\
x(t)=\theta r_0\\
\theta(t)=\frac{x(t)}{r_0}$
