Place the object in between the two jaws such that they touch opposite ends of the object making sure the object is held firmly but don’t press too tight. If you need to measure an internal diameter, then insert the upper jaws in to the cavity and open them till they touch the sides. Tighten the locking screw to hold the jaws in position.

Note the position of the vernier scale zero on the main scale. The main scale reading is the division just before where the zero mark of the vernier scale is aligned. So is the zero mark aligns just after the fifth division between 3 and 4 the main scale reading is then 3.5.

The next step is to take the vernier scale reading. To do this find the mark on the vernier scale which lines up perfectly with a mark on the main scale. The vernier reading can then be found by multiplying the least value of the vernier scale with the number of divisions till that mark. For example if the least value is 0.01 mm and the 7thmark of the vernier scale is lined up perfectly then the vernier scale reading is 7 x 0.01 = 0.07.

The final step is to add the main scale and vernier readings to get the final measurement. For example 3.5 + 0.07 = 3.57 mm.

A parallel-plate capacitor is made from two aluminum-foil sheets, each 3.0 cm wide and 5.00 m long. Between the sheets is a mica

Evgen [1.6K]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A parallel-plate capacitor is made from two aluminum-foil sheets, each 3.0 cm wide and 5.00 m long. Between the sheets is a mica strip of the same width and length that is 0.0225 mm thick. What is the maximum charge?

(The dielectric constant of mica is 5.4, and its dielectric strength is 1.00×10⁸ V/m)

Answer: the maximum charge q is 716.85 μF

Explanation:

Given data;

with = 3.0 cm = 0.03

breathe = 5.0 m

Area = 0.03 × 5 = 0.15 m²

dielectric strength E = 1.00 × 10⁸

∈₀ = 8.85 × 10⁻¹²

constant K = 5.4

maximum charge = ?

the capacitor C = KA∈₀ / d

q = cv so c = q/v

now

q/v = KA∈₀ / d

q = vKA∈₀/d = EKA∈₀

we substitute

q = (1.00 × 10⁸) × 5.4 × 0.15 × 8.85 × 10⁻¹²

q = 716.85 × 10⁻⁶ F

q = 716.85 μF

the maximum charge q is 716.85 μF

A satellite orbits a planet of unknown mass in a circular orbit of radius 2.3 x 104 km. The gravitational force on the satellite

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The kinetic energy is $KE = 7.59 *10^{10} \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The radius of the orbit is $r = 2.3 *10^{4} \ km = 2.3 *10^{7} \ m$

The gravitational force is $F_g = 6600 \ N$

The kinetic energy of the satellite is mathematically represented as

$KE = \frac{1}{2} * mv^2$

where v is the speed of the satellite which is mathematically represented as

$v = \sqrt{\frac{G M}{r^2} }$

=> $v^2 = \frac{GM }{r}$

substituting this into the equation

$KE = \frac{ 1}{2} *\frac{GMm}{r}$

Now the gravitational force of the planet is mathematically represented as

$F_g = \frac{GMm}{r^2}$

Where M is the mass of the planet and m is the mass of the satellite

Now looking at the formula for KE we see that we can represent it as

$KE = \frac{ 1}{2} *[\frac{GMm}{r^2}] * r$

=> $KE = \frac{ 1}{2} *F_g * r$

substituting values

$KE = \frac{ 1}{2} *6600 * 2.3*10^{7}$

$KE = 7.59 *10^{10} \ J$

During the spin cycle of a washing machine, the clothes stick to the outer wall of the barrel as it spins at a rate as high as 1

Darya [45]

To answer the two questions, we need to know two important equations involving centripetal movement:

v = ωr (ω represents angular velocity <u>in radians</u>)

a = $\frac{v^{2}}{r}$

Let's apply the first equation to question a:

v = ωr

v = ((1800*2π) / 60) * 0.26

Wait. 2π? 0.26? 60? Let's break down why these numbers are written differently. In order to use the equation v = ωr, it is important that the units of ω is in radians. Since one revolution is equivalent to 2π radians, we can easily do the conversion from revolutions to radians by multiplying it by 2π. As for 0.26, note that the question asks for the units to be m/s. Since we need meters, we simply convert 26 cm, our radius, into meters. The revolutions is also given in revs/min, and we need to convert it into revs/sec so that we can get our final units correct. As a result, we divide the rate by 60 to convert minutes into seconds.

Back to the equation:

v = ((1800*2π)/60) * 0.26

v = (1800*2(3.14)/60) * 0.26

v = (11304/60) * 0.26

v = 188.4 * 0.26

v = 48.984

v = 49 (m/s)

Now that we know the linear velocity, we can find the centripetal acceleration:

a = $\frac{v^{2}}{r}$

a = $\frac{49^{2}}{0.26}$

a = 9234.6 (m/ $s^{2}$ )

Wow! That's fast!

<u>We now have our answers for a and b:</u>

a. 49 (m/s)

b. 9.2 * $10^{3}$ (m/ $s^{2}$ )

If you have any questions on how I got to these answers, just ask!

Explain how you find the density of a liquid subtance example corn syrup

STatiana [176]

Use the density formula:

Mass of the substance
————————————
Volume of the substance

This gives you the density.

Corn syrup has a density of about 1.4 grams per cubic centimeter, and has the highest density of all liquids!

Hope this helps!
