P=V^2/R

In the first case voltage is 100V, in the second case it is 110V

P1=10000/R

P2=12100/R

R=P1/10000

R=P2/12100

P1/10000=P2/12100

12100 . P1=P2 . 10000

Divide both by 100

P1 . 121=P2 . 100

Therefore Power in the second scenario is 21% less than the first one

The intensity of light from a central source varies inversely as the square of the distance. If you lived on a planet only half
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

the intensity will be 4 times that of the earth.

Explanation:

let us assume the following:

intensity of light on earth =J

distance of earth from sun = d

intensity of light on other planet = K

distance of other planet from sun = \frac{d}{2} (from the question, the planet is half as far from the sun as earth)

from the question the intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, hence

  • intensity on earth : J = \frac{1}{d^{2} }

        Jd^{2} = 1 ... equation 1

  • intensity on other planet : K =  \frac{1}{(\frac{d}{2}) ^{2} }  (the planet is half as far from the sun as earth)

        K(\frac{d}{2}) ^{2} = 1 ....equation 2

  • equating both equation 1 and 2 we have

       Jd^{2} = K(\frac{d}{2}) ^{2}

       Jd^{2} = K\frac{d^{2}}{4}

       J = \frac{K}{4}

        K = 4J

       intensity of light on other planet (K) = 4 times intensity of light on earth (J)

The polar coordinates of the collar A are given as functions of time in seconds by r = 2+ 0.7 t2 ft and ????= 3.5t rad. What are
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer with explanation:

Part a)

v_{radial}=\frac{dr}{dt}=\frac{d(2+0.7t^{2})}{dt}\\\\v_{radial}=1.4t\\\\\therefore v_{radial}|_{t=4}=1.4\times 4=5.6ft/s\\\\v_{angular}=r|_{t=4}\times \frac{d\theta }{dt}=13.2\frac{3.5t}{dt}=46.2fts^{-1}\\\\\therefore v=\sqrt{v_{radial}^{2}+v_{angular}^{2}}\\\\v=46.53ft/s

Part b)

a_{radial}=\frac{d^{2}r}{dt^{2}}=\frac{d^{2}(2+0.7t^{2})}{dt^{2}}\\\\a_{radial}=1.4ft/s^{2}\\\\a_{angular}=r\times \frac{d^{2}\theta }{dt^{2}}\\\\a_{angular}=r\times \frac{d^{2}(3.5t) }{dt^{2}}\\\\\therefore a_{angular}=0\\\\\therefore Accleration=1.4ft/s^{2}

A physics professor that doesn’t get easily embarrassed stands at the center of a frictionless turntable with arms outstretched
mr Goodwill [35]
Apply conservation of angular momentum:
L = Iw = const.
L = angular momentum, I = moment of inertia, w = angular velocity, L must stay constant.

L must stay the same before and after the professor brings the dumbbells closer to himself.

His initial angular velocity is 2π radians divided by 2.0 seconds, or π rad/s. His initial moment of inertia is 3.0kg•m^2

His final moment of inertia is 2.2kg•m^2.

Calculate the initial angular velocity:
L = 3.0π

Final angular velocity:
L = 2.2w

Set the initial and final angular momentum equal to each other and solve for the final angular velocity w:

3.0π = 2.2w
w = 1.4π rad/s

The rotational energy is given by:
KE = 0.5Iw^2

Initial rotational energy:
KE = 0.5(3.0)(π)^2 = 14.8J

Final rotational energy:
KE = 0.5(2.2)(1.4)^2 = 21.3J

There is an increase in rotational energy. Where did this energy come from? It came from changing the moment of inertia. The professor had to exert a radially inward force to pull in the dumbbells, doing work that increases his rotational energy.
