The heat index, also known as the apparent temperature, is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature. This has important considerations for the human body's comfort. When the body gets too hot, it begins to perspire or sweat to cool itself off.

v = v₀ + at

v = final speed, v₀ = initial speed, a = acceleration, t = elapsed time

Given values:

v₀ = 0m/s (starts from rest), a = 9.81m/s², t = 3s

Plug in and solve for v:

v = 0 + 9.81(3)

v = 29.4m/s

How far will a 70N crate is move with 3500J of work

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Work = Force * distance
Force = 70 N
Work = 3500 J

3500 = 70d
d = 3500/70 = 50 m

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

$8.37*10^5$ rpm

Explanation:

Given that rotational kinetic energy = $4.66*10^9J$

Mass of the fly wheel (m) = 19.7 kg

Radius of the fly wheel (r) = 0.351 m

Moment of inertia (I) = $\frac{1}{2} mr ^2$

Rotational K.E is illustrated as $(K.E)_{rt} = \frac{1}{2} I \omega^2$

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{2(K.E)_{rt}}{I} }$

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{2(KE)_{rt}}{1/2 mr^2} }$

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{4(K.E)_{rt}}{mr^2} }$

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{4*4.66*10^9J}{19.7kg*(0.351)^2} }$

$\omega = 87636.04$

$\omega = 8.76*10^4 rad/s$

Since 1 rpm = $\frac{2 \pi}{60} rad/s$

$\omega = 8.76*10^4(\frac{60}{2 \pi})$

$\omega = 836518.38$

$\omega = 8.37 *10^5 rpm$

A circuit is set up such that it has a current of 8 A. What would be the new current if the resistance was increased by a factor

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

4 A

Explanation:

The relationship between current, voltage and resistance in a circuit is given by Ohm's law:

$V=RI$

where

V is the voltage

R is the resistance

I is the current

The equation can also be rewritten as

$I=\frac{V}{R}$

from which we see that the current is inversely proportional to the resistance, R.

In this problem, the initial current is I = 8 A. Then the resistance is doubled:

R ' = 2R

So the new current is

$I'=\frac{V}{R'}=\frac{V}{2R}=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{V}{R})=\frac{I}{2}=4 A$

so the current is halved.
