Function of insulators is protection against sound or electric current or ,heat based on the type of insulators.

They use in wires (plastic)

Use in making soundproof rooms

Thermal insulators are use in making water bottles. Keep the water warm

Question 2.

choli [55]

Explanation:

1 inch = 25.4 mm

1 foot = 12 inches

1 mile = 5260 feet

1 cm = 0.01 m or 10 mm

Now Sammy's height is 5 feet and 5.3 inches.

(a) We need to find Sammy's height in inches.

Since, 1 foot = 12 inches

5 feet = 5 × 12 inches = 60 inches

Now, 5 feet and 5.3 inches = 60 inches + 5.3 inches = 65.3 inches

Sammy's height is 65.3 inches.

(b) We need to find Sammy's height in feet.

Since, 1 foot = 12 inches

$1\ \text{inch}=\dfrac{1}{12}\ \text{feet}$

So,

$5.3\ \text{inch}=\dfrac{5.3}{12}\ \text{feet}=0.4416\ \text{feet}$

5 feet and 5.3 inches = 5 feet + 0.4416 feet = 5.44 feet

Sammy's height is 5.44 feet.

Mike is a runner. Mike runs 200m in 25s; what is his average velocity during the run? assume that units are in m/s. (asap, will

maw [93]

Velocity is displacement/time
(Displacement is the overall change in distance)

So you’ll want to divide 200 by 25, which should give you:

8 m/s

A 217 Ω resistor, a 0.875 H inductor, and a 6.75 μF capacitor are connected in series across a voltage source that has voltage a

Nataly [62]

For an AC circuit:

I = V/Z

V = AC source voltage, I = total AC current, Z = total impedance

Note: We will be dealing with impedances which take on complex values where j is the square root of -1. All phasor angles are given in radians.

For a resistor R, inductor L, and capacitor C, their impedances are given by:

$Z_{R}$ = R

R = resistance

$Z_{L}$ = jωL

ω = voltage source angular frequency, L = inductance

$Z_{C}$ = -j/(ωC)

ω = voltage source angular frequency, C = capacitance

Given values:

R = 217Ω, L = 0.875H, C = 6.75×10⁻⁶F, ω = 220rad/s

Plug in and calculate the impedances:

$Z_{R}$ = 217Ω

$Z_{L}$ = j(220)(0.875) = j192.5Ω

$Z_{C}$ = -j/(220×6.75×10⁻⁶) = -j673.4Ω

Add up the impedances to get the total impedance Z, then convert Z to polar form:

Z = $Z_{R}$ + $Z_{L}$ + $Z_{C}$

Z = 217 + j192.5 - j673.4

Z = (217-j480.9)Ω

Z = (527.6∠-1.147)Ω

Back to I = V/Z

Given values:

V = (30.0∠0+220t)V (assume 0 initial phase, and t = time)

Z = (527.6∠-1.147)Ω (from previous computation)

Plug in and solve for I:

I = (30.0∠0+220t)/(527.6∠-1.147)

I = (0.0569∠1.147+220t)A

To get the voltages of each individual component, we'll just multiply I and each of their impedances:

$v_{R}$ = I× $Z_{R}$

$v_{L}$ = I× $Z_{L}$

$v_{C}$ = I× $Z_{C}$

Given values:

I = (0.0569∠1.147+220t)A

$Z_{R}$ = 217Ω = (217∠0)Ω

$Z_{L}$ = j192.5Ω = (192.5∠π/2)Ω

$Z_{C}$ = -j673.4Ω = (673.4∠-π/2)Ω

Plug in and calculate each component's voltage:

$v_{R}$ = (0.0569∠1.147+220t)(217∠0) = (12.35∠1.147+220t)V

$v_{L}$ = (0.0569∠1.147+220t)(192.5∠π/2) = (10.95∠2.718+220t)V

$v_{C}$ = (0.0569∠1.147+220t)(673.4∠-π/2) = (38.32∠-0.4238+220t)V

Now we have the total and individual voltages as functions of time:

V = (30.0∠0+220t)V

$v_{R}$ = (12.35∠1.147+220t)V

$v_{L}$ = (10.95∠2.718+220t)V

$v_{C}$ = (38.32∠-0.4238+220t)V

Plug in t = 22.0×10⁻³s into these values and take the real component (amplitude multiplied by the cosine of the phase) to determine the real voltage values at this point in time:

V = 30.0cos(0+220(22.0×10⁻³)) = 3.82V

$v_{R}$ = 12.35cos(1.147+220(22.0×10⁻³)) = 11.8V

$v_{L}$ = 10.95cos(2.718+220(22.0×10⁻³)) = 3.19V

$v_{C}$ = 38.32cos(-0.4238+220(22.0×10⁻³)) = -11.2V
