Answer:

a = = 37.2V

b = 13.39MJ

Explanation:

Given that

L = 170 × 10³

r = d/2

= 10cm / 2 = 5 cm

current I = 100A

we are to find the potential drop across the cable

so, we can use ohm’s law

V = IR = I (ρL/A)

ρ = resistivity of the copper

= 1.72 × 10⁻⁸ Ω.m

A = πr²

V = I(ρL/πr²)

= 100 (( 1.72 × 10⁻⁸ * 170 × 10³) / ( π * 0.05²))

= 37.2V

(b)

Energy (loss) = Pt

Enery (loss) = IVt

3600s per hour

= (100A)(37.2V)(3600s)

= 13.39MJ

A spring with spring constant 15 N/m hangs from the ceiling. A ball is attached to the spring and allowed to come to rest. It is

olga nikolaevna [1]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Spring constant of the spring, k = 15 N/m

Amplitude of the oscillation, A = 7.5 cm = 0.075 m

Number of oscillations, N = 31

Time, t = 15 s

(a) Let m is the mass of the ball. The frequency of oscillation of the spring is given by :

$f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}$

Total number of oscillation per unit time is called frequency of oscillation. Here, $f=\dfrac{31}{15}=2.06\ Hz$

$m=\dfrac{k}{4\pi^2f^2}$

$m=\dfrac{15}{4\pi^2\times 2.06^2}$

m = 0.0895 kg

m = 89 g

(b) The maximum speed of the ball that is given by :

$v_{max}=A\times \omega$

$v_{max}=A\times 2\pi f$

$v_{max}=0.075\times 2\pi \times 2.06$

$v_{max}=0.970\ m/s$

$v_{max}=97\ cm/s$

Hence, this is the required solution.

sergejj [24]

Answer:

The acceleration of the ball is $a_y = - 0.3672 \ m/s^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The maximum height the ball reachs is $H_{max} = 42.24 \ m$

The horizontal component of the initial velocity of the ball is $v_{ix} = 5.57 \ m/s$

The vertical component of the initial velocity of the ball is $v_{iy} = = 16.18 m/s$

The vertically motion of the ball can be mathematically represented as

$v_{fy}^2 = v_{iy} ^2 + 2 a_{y} H_{max}$

Here the final velocity at the maximum height is zero so $v_{fy} = 0 \ m/s$

Making the acceleration $a_y$ the subject we have

$a_y = \frac{v_{iy} ^2}{2H_{max}}$

substituting values

$a_y = - \frac{5.57^2}{2* 42.24}$

$a_y = - 0.3672 \ m/s^2$

The negative sign shows that the direction of the acceleration is in the negative y-axis
