Answer:

C = 0.0125 m/s⁴. The calculation procedure can be found in the attachment below. The concept of motion along a straight line with constant acceleration has been applied to solve the problem.

Explanation:

The sign convention chosen in this problem solution is upwards as positive and downwards negative. The equation of motion v = u + at has been used to calculate the constant C as only one unknown is contained in this equation. This is so because we have been given the initial velocity, the acceleration and the time taken. To solve future problems of this kind, first thing to check for is an equation of motion with the least number of unknown. This helps to reduce the complexity of the problem solution.

Determine the inductive reactance for a 50 mH inductor that is across a 15 volt, 400 Hz source.
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Inductive reactance is 125.7 Ω

Explanation:

It is given that,

Inductance, L=50\ mH=0.05\ H

Voltage source, V = 15 volt

Frequency, f = 400 Hz

The inductive reactance of the circuit is equivalent to the impedance. It opposes the flow of electric current throughout the circuit. It is given by :

X_L=2\pi fL

X_L=2\pi \times 400\ Hz\times 0.05\ H

X_L=125.66\ \Omega

X_L=125.7\ \Omega

So, the inductive reactance is 125.7 Ω. Hence, this is the required solution.

Scientists can use spectral analysis of stars to determine which of the following?
RoseWind [281]
I do believe all of these but core elements can be determined by spectroscopy which includes the use of electromagnetic radiation. Both the surface and core temperature can be measured using light. Surface elements can be found because the absorption lines of different elements in the spectra of the star, but I haven't heard anything about using spectral analysis for core elements.

The centripetal acceleration a is 4.32 \times 10^-4 m/s^2.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The speed is constant and computing the speed from the distance and time for one full lap.

Given, distance = 400 mm = 0.4 m,       Time = 100 s.

Computing the v = 0.4 m / 100 s

                         v = 4 \times 10^-3 m/s.

radius of the circular end r = 37 mm = 0.037 m.

            centripetal acceleration a = v^2 / r

                                                        = (4 \times 10^-3)^2 / 0.037

                                                    a = 4.32 \times 10^-4 m/s^2.
