Data was used from three different stations. Where their data overlapped was where the epicenter was located.
it is called triangulation

A one-piece cylinder has a core section protruding from the larger drum and is free to rotate around its central axis. A rope wr

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Magnitude the net torque about its axis of rotation is 2.41 Nm

Solution:

As per the question:

The radius of the wrapped rope around the drum, r = 1.33 m

Force applied to the right side of the drum, F = 4.35 N

The radius of the rope wrapped around the core, r' = 0.51 m

Force on the cylinder in the downward direction, F' = 6.62 N

Now, the magnitude of the net torque is given by:

$\tau_{net} = \tau + \tau'$

where

$\tau$ = Torque due to Force, F

$\tau'$ = Torque due to Force, F'

$tau = F\times r$

$tau' = F'\times r'$

Now,

$\tau_{net} = - F\times r + F'\times r'$

$\tau_{net} = - 4.35\times 1.33 + 6.62\times 0.51 = - 2.41\ Nm$

The net torque comes out to be negative, this shows that rotation of cylinder is in the clockwise direction from its stationary position.

Now, the magnitude of the net torque:

$|\tau_{net}| = 2.41\ Nm$

Draw a schematic diagram of a circuit consisting of a battery of five 2 V cells, a 5 ohm resistor, a 10 ohm resistor, a 15 ohm r

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Current = 0.33 A

Explanation:

For diagram refer the attachment.

It is given that five cells of 2V are connected in series, so total voltage of the battery:

$\dashrightarrow \: \: \sf V = 2 \times 5 = 10 V$

Three resistor of 5 $\Omega$ , 10 $\Omega$ , 15 $\Omega$ are connected in Series, so the net resistance:

$\dashrightarrow \: \: \sf R_{n} = R_{1} + R_{2} + R_{3}$

$\dashrightarrow \: \: \sf R = 5 + 10 + 15$

${ \pink{\dashrightarrow \sf \: \: { \underbrace{R = 30 \: \Omega}}}}$

According to ohm's law:

$\dashrightarrow \sf\: \: V = IR$

$\dashrightarrow \sf \: \: I = \dfrac{V}{R}$

On substituting resultant voltage (V) as 10 V and resultant resistant, as 30 ${\pmb{\sf{\Omega}}}$ we get:

$\dashrightarrow \sf \: \: I = \dfrac{10V}{30\Omega}$

${ \pink{\dashrightarrow \sf \: \: { \underbrace{I = 0.33 A}}}}$

$\therefore$ The electric current passing through the above circuit when the key is closed will be <u>0.33 A</u>
