Explain why a cow that touches an electric fence experiences a mild shock

Physics
1 answer:
Minchanka [31]2 years ago
8 0
The voltage exists between the fence and the ground.  The cow is grounded. The cow is touching the ground, completing the circuit of electricity. <span>When the cow comes into contact with the fence, it becomes an electric ground which sends an electric current into the cow, through the cow, and into the ground. The pain experienced from the shock is due to the current that flows through the cow.</span>

Every 10 seconds a pendulum makes 2 cycles. What are the period and frequency of this pendulum
jek_recluse [69]

   (10 seconds) / (2 cycles)  =  (10/2) (sec/cycle) = 5 seconds.

That's the pendulum's period.

Frequency = 1 / (period) = 1/5 per second  =  0.2 Hz.

A soccer ball is kicked from the ground with an initial speed of 20.5 m/s at an upward angle of 45°. A player 55 m away in the d
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

S = 4.08 m/s

Explanation:

given,

initial speed, v = 20.5 m/s

angle made with horizontal, θ = 45°

Distance of player = 55 m

Average speed of the player to catch the ball = ?

vertical velocity of the ball =

v_y = v sin θ = 20.5 x sin 45° = 14.5 m/s

horizontal velocity of the ball

v_x = v cos θ = 20.5 x cos 45° = 14.5 m/s

time taken by the ball to reach at the highest point

v = u +  g t

v = V_y -  g t

0 = 14.5 - 9.8 x t

t = 1.48 s

total time of flight = 2 t = 1.48 x 2 = 2.96 s

Horizontal distance travel by the ball

s = vₓ x t

s = 14.5 x 2.96

s = 42.96 m

distance player has to run

D = 55 - 42.96 = 12.08 m

Average speed of the player

S = \dfrac{D}{t}

S = \dfrac{12.08}{2.96}

S = 4.08 m/s

Speed of the player is equal to 4.08 m/s
