Which of these is the most ductile? A. clay B. gold C. wood D. glass

The highest freefall jump on record is from a height of almost 38,000 m. At this height, the acceleration of gravity is slightly

lina2011 [118]

Increasing his acceleration will impact his velocity and rate of displacement covered in that as the speed increases due to the increased rate of acceleration, the rate of air resistance also increases.

<h3>What is air resistance?</h3>

Air resistance is a force created by air. When an item moves through the air, the force operates in the opposite direction.

When a diver descends, the force of air resistance acts to counteract the force of gravity. As the skydiver falls faster and faster, the quantity of air resistance grows until it equals the magnitude of gravity's force.

A balance of forces is achieved when the force of gravity equals the force of air resistance, and the skydiver no longer accelerates. The skydiver reaches what is known as terminal velocity.

A hunter on a frozen, essentially frictionless pond uses a rifle that shoots 4.20g bullets at 965m/s. the mass of the hunter (in

weqwewe [10]

When the gun is fired horizontally :

m = mass of each bullet = 4.20 g = 0.0042 kg

v = velocity of the bullet after fire = 965 m/s

M = mass of the hunter including gun = 72.5 kg

V = velocity of hunter including gun after fire = ?

V' = velocity of the combination of bullet , gun and hunter before fire = 0 m/s

Using conservation of momentum

m v + M V = (m + M) V'

(0.0042) (965) + (72.5) V = (0.0042 + 72.5) (0)

V = - 0.056 m/s

so recoil velocity comes out to be 0.056 m/s

When the gun is fired at angle 56.0⁰ above the horizontal :

m = mass of each bullet = 4.20 g = 0.0042 kg

v = velocity of the bullet after fire = 965 Cos56 = 539.62 m/s

M = mass of the hunter including gun = 72.5 kg

V = velocity of hunter including gun after fire = ?

V' = velocity of the combination of bullet , gun and hunter before fire = 0 m/s

Using conservation of momentum

m v + M V = (m + M) V'

(0.0042) (539.62) + (72.5) V = (0.0042 + 72.5) (0)

V = - 0.031 m/s

so recoil velocity comes out to be 0.031 m/s

An extension cord is used with an electric weed trimmer that has a resistance of 17.9 Ω. The extension cord is made of copper (r

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

(a) $R_{c}=0.87ohms$

(b) $V_{T}=114.44V$

Explanation:

Part (a)

The total length of copper cord L=86.3 m

The cross sectional area A=1.71×10⁻⁶m²

The resistivity of copper p=1.72×10⁻⁸Ω

Thus the resistance of extension cord is

$R_{c}=p\frac{L}{A}\\R_{c}=(1.72*10^{-8} )\frac{86.3}{1.71*10^{-6}}\\R_{c}=0.87ohms$

Part (b)

The resistance of trimmer Rt=17.9 ohms

When voltage of 120V is applied then the current I is passing through series circuit is

$I=\frac{120V}{R_{c} +R_{T} }\\I=\frac{120V}{0.87 +17.9 } \\I=6.4A$

Thus the voltage across the trimmer is:

$V_{T}=IR_{T}\\V_{T}=(6.4)*(17.9)\\V_{T}=114.44V$

A dielectric material such as paper is inserted between the plates of a capacitor as the capacitor holds a fixed charge on its p

Vikki [24]

Answer:

Introducing a dielectric into a capacitor decreases the electric field, which decreases the voltage, which increases the capacitance.

Explanation:

A dielectric (or dielectric material) is an electrical insulator that can be polarized by an applied electric field. When a dielectric material is placed in an electric field, electric charges do not flow through the material as they do in an electrical conductor but only slightly shift from their average equilibrium positions causing dielectric polarization
