I would say the answer is C, because the gravity is constant in the earth's atmosphere.

Hope this answer helps! feel free to ask any additional questions :)

Lake Baikal in Siberia has a maximum depth of 1642 m. What is the water
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Explanation:

Fluid gauge pressure is:

P = ρgh

where ρ is the fluid density and h is the depth of the fluid.

P = (1000 kg/m³) (9.8 m/s²) (1642 m)

P = 16,091,600 Pa

Rounded to four significant figures, the gauge pressure is 16.09 MPa.

The half-wave rectifier circuit of vs(t) = 170 sin(377t) V and a load resistance R = 15Ω. Determine: a. The average load current
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

a  average load current = 11.33 A

b rms load current = 8.02A

c true power =962.64 W

d apparent power =962.64 W

e. power factor cosθ =1

Explanation:

Vs (t) = 170 sin(377t) v

Vm =170v

Vrms = 170/√2 =120.23 v

Im = Vm/R = 170/15 = 11.33 A

Irms = Im/ √2 = 11.33/√2 =8.02A

Resistors are electronic components that consume energy

the power in a resistor is given by  P =IVcosθ ; in a resistor cosθ =1

P =IV

The electrical power consumed by a resistance, (R) is called the true or real power

and is obtained by multiplying the rms voltage with the rms current.

P= Vrms × Irms

120.03×8.02

P= 962.64 W ; true power

apparent power = Vrms × Irms

=120.03×8.02

= 962.64W ; apparent power

power factor cosθ = true power/ apparent power

cosθ = 962.64/962.64

cosθ = 1

For the purely resistive circuit, the power factor is 1 , because the reactive power is equal to zero (0).

Find the magnitude of this<br> vector:<br> 174 m<br> N<br> 188.4 m<br> HELP FAST
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

195.168 m

Explanation:

To find the magnitude of the vector you can use the Pythagorean Theorem since you have the height and base and the vector is really just the hypotenuse

Pythagorean Theorem:

a^2+b^2=c^2

Plug values in

88.4^2+174^2=c^2

Simplify

7814.56+30276=c^2

Add the two values

38090.56=c^2

Take the square root of both sides

195.168\approx195.168

Suppose a person pushes thumbtack that is 1/5 centimeter long into a bulletin board, and the force (in dynes) exerted when the d
mario62 [17]

Answer:

W = 290.7 dynes*cm

Explanation:

d = 1/5 cm = 0.2 cm

The force is in function of the depth x:

F(x) = 1000 * (1 + 2*x)^2

We can expand that as:

F(x) = 1000 * (1 + 4*x + 4x^2)

F(x) = 1000 + 4000*x + 4000*x^2

Work is defined as

W = F * d

Since we have non constant force we integrate

W = \int\limits^{0.2}_{0} {(1000 + 4000*x + 4000*x^2)} \, dx

W = [1000*x + 2000*x^2 + 1333*X^3] evaluated between 0 and 0.2

W = 1000*0.2 + 2000*0.2^2 + 1333*0.2^3 - 1000*0 - 2000*0^2 - 1333*0^3

W = 200 + 80 + 10.7 = 290.7 dynes*cm
