The unit used to measure electric current is the ampere (AA). Now, assume that the current delivered at a wall socket reaches th

e value 3.8 AA ten times in a time interval of 0.17 ss. What is the period TTT with which the current at the wall socket changes?

The period T with which the current at the wall socket changes is 0.017 s.

It also ranges from 0.155 s to 0.0189 s since the cycles is not given in the question.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The current reaches 3.8 A once for every cycle. So there must have been 10 cycles (10 periods) in 0.17 s.

Using 'T' for period:

10 T = 0.17

T = 0.17 / 10

T = 0.017 s.

The question doesn't tell about the cycles and so we assume it as 10 cycles. If there are 9 cycles due to the current 3.8 A at the exact beginning and end of 0.17 s. This would make the period T as

0.17 / 9 = 0.0189 s approx.

Likewise, if the 3.8 A occurs at the end of the 1st cycle, 11 cycles would have passed during 0.17 s.

In that case the period = 0.17 / 11 = 0.155 s approx.

So T could be in the range from 0.155 s to 0.0189 s.

A powerful motorcycle can produce an acceleration of 3.50 m/s2 while traveling at 90.0 km/h. At that speed the forces resisting

IrinaK [193]

Answer:1265 N

Explanation:

Given

acceleration of motorcycle $\left ( a\right )=3.5 m/s^2$

Velocity $\left ( v\right )=90 km/h\approx 25m/s$

Air friction and Friction $\left ( f\right )=425 N$

mass of the motorcycle with rider $\left ( m\right )=240 Kg$

Applying Forces on motorcycle

$F_{engine}-f=ma$

$F_{engine}=f+ma$

$F_{engine}=425+240\left ( 3.5\right )$

$F_{engine}=425+840=1265 N$

The capacitor can withstand a peak voltage of 590 volts. If the voltage source operates at the resonance frequency, what maximum

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

The maximum voltage is 41.92 V.

Explanation:

Given that,

Peak voltage = 590 volts

Suppose in an L-R-C series circuit, the resistance is 400 ohms, the inductance is 0.380 Henry, and the capacitance is $1.20×10^{-2}\ \mu F$ .

We need to calculate the resonance frequency

Using formula of frequency

$f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{LC}}$

Put the value into the formula

$f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{0.380\times1.20\times10^{-8}}}$

$f=2356.88\ Hz$

We need to calculate the maximum current

Using formula of current

$I=\dfrac{V_{c}}{X_{c}}$

$I=2\pi\times f\times C\times V_{c}$

$I=2\pi\times2356.88\times1.20\times10^{-8}\times590$

$I=0.1048\ A$

Impedance of the circuit is

$z=\sqrt{R^2+(X_{L}^2-X_{C}^2)}$

At resonance frequency $X_{L}=X_{C}$

$Z=R$

We need to calculate the maximum voltage

Using ohm's law

$V=I\times R$

$V=0.1048\times400$

$V=41.92\ V$

Hence, The maximum voltage is 41.92 V.

Which device converts electrical energy into kinetic energy?

andriy [413]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em>Electric motor</em>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

<em><u>Energy</u></em> is the ability to do work. According to the law of conservation of energy,<em><u> energy can not be created nor destroyed but can be changed from one form to another</u></em>.
Changing energy from one form to another is done by devices we call <em><u>transducers. These are elements that convert energy from one form to another.</u></em>
In this case, electrical motor is an example of a transducer that converts electrical energy to kinetic energy. <em><u>Electrical energy is supplied to a the motor which converts it to rotational energy or mechanical energy then to kinetic energy.</u></em>

What results when energy is transformed while juggling three bowling pins?

Nady [450]

Answer:

his is an example of the transformation of gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy

Explanation:

The game of juggling bowling is a clear example of the conservation of mechanical energy,

when the bolus is in the upper part of the path mechanical energy is potential energy; As this energy descends, it becomes kinetic energy where the lowest part of the trajectory, just before touching the hand, is totally kinetic.

At the moment of touching the hand, a relationship is applied that reverses the value of the speed, that is, now it is ascending and the cycle repeats.

Therefore this is an example of the transformation of gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy

Help me answer these, please. I GIVE CROWNS!! PLEASE!!

bija089 [108]

Answer: 1- A diagram showing the forces acting on the object.

2- The force vector describes a specific amount of force and its direction. You need both value and direction to have a vector.

3- A vector quantity has a direction and a magnitude, while a scalar has only a magnitude. You can tell if a quantity is a vector by whether or not it has a direction associated with it.

4- I don’t know

5- When two forces acting on an object are equal in size but act in opposite directions, we say that they are balanced forces

6- By applying an unbalanced force, you can change the motion of an object. Unbalanced forces can make an object at rest start moving, make a moving object stop, or change the direction and speed of the object.

7- If the forces on an object are unbalanced, this is what happens: a stationary object starts to move in the direction of the resultant force.

8- Imbalance or unequal force

9- The result is no motion. Balanced forces can cancel each other out. Any time there is a balanced force, the object does not move.

10- net force is the vector sum of all the forces that act upon an object.
