-- There's a force of 240N pushing her backwards.

-- She's maintaining a steady speed (of 2.5 m/s) .

-- In order to maintain a steady speed (no acceleration),
the forces on her must be balanced.  So she's maintaining
a steady force of 240N forward.

-- Every time she moves 1 m forward, she does work of
(force) x (distance) = 240 joules.

-- She moves 2.5 meters forward every second.
So she's doing (240 x 2.5) = 600 joules of work every second.

-- 600 joules per second = 600 watts .

Answer:

Energy transferred = 28.8 Joules.

1. Energy transferred = 144 Joules.

2. The unit of potential difference, volts can also be described as Joules per Coulombs.

3. Current, I = 6.945 Amperes.  

Explanation:

<u>Part A.</u>

Given the following data;

Current, I = 1.2A

Time, t = 2 minutes

Potential difference, V = 12 volts.

To find the energy transfered;

Energy transferred = charge moved * potential difference

E = Q * V

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Energy transferred = (1.2 * 2) * 12

Energy transferred = 2.4 * 12

Energy transferred = 28.8 Joules.

<u>Part B.</u>

1. <em><u>Given the following data;</u></em>

Charge, Q = 24C

Potential difference = 6V

To find the energy transferred;

E = Q * V

Substituting into the equation, we have;

E = 24 * 6

E = 144 Joules.

2. Since we know that, Energy transferred = charge moved * potential difference

Potential \; difference = \frac {Energy \; transferred}{Charged \; moved}

The units of energy is Joules while the unit of the quantity of charge moved is Coulomb.

Therefore, the unit of potential difference becomes Joules per Coulomb.

3. <em><u>Given the following data;</u></em>

Potential difference = 18V

Energy transferred = 500J

Time, t = 4 minutes.

To find the current;

E = Q * V

Substituting into the equation, we have;

500 = Q*18

Q = 500/18

Q = 27.78C

But, Charge moved (Q) = current (I) * time (t)

Current, I = Q/t

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Current, I = 27.78/4

Current, I = 6.945 Amperes..

The Moment of Inertia of the Disc is represented by I = \frac{15}{32}\cdot M\cdot R^{2}. (Correct answer: A)

Let suppose that the Disk is a Rigid Body whose mass is uniformly distributed. The Moment of Inertia of the element is equal to the Moment of Inertia of the entire Disk minus the Moment of Inertia of the Hole, that is to say:

I = I_{D} - I_{H} (1)

Where:

  • I_{D} - Moment of inertia of the Disk.
  • I_{H} - Moment of inertia of the Hole.

Then, this formula is expanded as follows:

I = \frac{1}{2}\cdot M\cdot R^{2} - \frac{1}{2}\cdot m\cdot \left(\frac{1}{2}\cdot R^{2} \right) (1b)

Dimensionally speaking, Mass is directly proportional to the square of the Radius, then we derive the following expression for the Mass removed by the Hole (m):

\frac{m}{M} = \frac{R^{2}}{4\cdot R^{2}}

m = \frac{1}{2}\cdot M

And the resulting equation is:

I = \frac{1}{2}\cdot M\cdot R^{2} -\frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(\frac{1}{4}\cdot M \right) \cdot \left(\frac{1}{4}\cdot R^{2} \right)

I = \frac{1}{2} \cdot M\cdot R^{2} - \frac{1}{32}\cdot M\cdot R^{2}

I = \frac{15}{32}\cdot M\cdot R^{2}

The moment of inertia of the Disc is represented by I = \frac{15}{32}\cdot M\cdot R^{2}. (Correct answer: A)

What is the frequency of an ocean wave that is traveling at a speed of 45 m/s if it has a wavelength of 3 meters.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Frequency, f = 15 Hz      

Explanation:

We have,

Speed of an ocean wave is 45 m/s

Wavelength of a wave is 3 m

It is required to find the frequency of an ocean wave.

Speed of a wave, v=f\lambda, f = frequency of ocean wave

f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{45}{3}\\\\f=15\ Hz

So, the frequency of an ocean wave is 15 Hz.
