Answer:

<em>There will  be a huge problem of holding the wire strands together, and the power losses will also be amplified.</em>

Explanation:

The force per unit length on two current carrying conductors, lying parallel to each other is proportional to the product of the current through the conductors, and inversely proportional to their distance apart. This force is attractive if the current flows through these conductors in the same direction, and is repulsive if it flows in the opposite direction.

For the strand of wire that make up a high voltage wire bundle, there will be a force of attraction pulling the wires closer to each other, and they will experience the maximum pulling force possible, since they lie next to each other. This force helps to hold these wires in a high tension wire strand together, limiting the area, and reducing "skin effect."

In the case that this wires in the wire strand acts in opposite of the known behavior, the wires will repel and push each other apart. This pushing apart will increase power loss due "skin effect" which is increased by an increase in exposed surface area of the wire strands. This will pose a big problem for high tension transmission.

A bike first accelerates from 0.0m/s to 4.5m/s in 4.5 s, the continues at this constant speed for another 6.0 s. What is the tot
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

37.125 m

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion

s=ut+0.5at^{2} where s is distance, u is initial velocity, t is time and a is acceleration

<u>Distance during acceleration</u>

Acceleration, a=\frac {V_{final}-V_{initial}}{t} where V_{final} is final velocity and V_{initial} is initial velocity.

Substituting 0.0 m/s for initial velocity and 4.5 m/s for final velocity, acceleration will be

a=\frac {4.5 m/s-0 m/s}{4.5 s}=1 m/s^{2}

Then substituting u for 0 m/s, t for 4.5 s and a for 1 m/s^{2} into the equation of motion

s=0*4.5+ 0.5*1*4.5^{2}=0+10.125 =10.125 m

<u>Distance at a constant speed</u>

At a constant speed, there's no acceleration and since speed=distance/time then distance is speed*time

Distance=4.5 m/s*6 s=27 m

<u>Total distance</u>

Total=27+10.125=37.125 m

vivado [14]

The distance is 97720.5 m

From the question, we have

P = 0.06 W × 2 = 0.12 W

d = ?

Sound intensity, I = P/4πd²

I = 10⁻¹² W/m²

10⁻¹² = 0.12/4πd²

d = 97720.5 m

The distance is 97720.5 m

Sound intensity :

The power carried by sound waves per unit area in the direction  perpendicular to that region is known as sound intensity or acoustic intensity. The watt per square meter (W/m2) is the SI unit of intensity, which also covers sound intensity. Sound intensity is a measure of how quickly energy moves across a given space. The unit area in the SI measurement system is 1 m2. So Watts per square meter are used to measure sound intensity. As there will be energy flow in certain directions but not in others, sound intensity also provides a measure of direction.

Which of the following describes a closed conducting loop through which an electrical current can flow?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
I think the correct answer is the second option. A circuit describes a closed conducting loop through which an electrical current can flow. It is a path that an electrical current could flow. A circuit could be a closed one or an open circuit. A closed circuit would be a circuit where the current could flow continuously. An open circuit would be a type of circuit where the flow current would only go once and stopped at a particular point since the current has nowhere to go. For a circuit to work, an electric supply should be available to supply the electric current.
