Answer:

Explanation:

Capacitor of 0.75μF, charged to 70V and connect in series with 55Ω and 140 Ω to discharge.

Energy dissipates in 55Ω resistor is given by V²/R

Since the 55ohms and 140ohms l discharge the capacitor fully, the voltage will be zero volts and this voltage will be shared by the resistor in ratio.

So for 55ohms, using voltage divider rule

V=R1/(R1+R2) ×Vt

V=55/(55+140) ×70

V=19.74Volts is across the 55ohms resistor.

Then, energy loss will be

E=V²/R

E=19.74²/55

E=7.09J

7.09J of heat is dissipated by the 55ohms resistor

When applying a horizontal force of 30N, an object of mass 6 kg accelerates at 4m/s2. The force of friction on the surface must
Rus_ich [418]
Using Newton's Second Law, F = ma, where F is the net force

So the net force is:

F = (6kg)(4m/s^2) = 24N

Since you are applying a horizontal force of 30N, we can find the force of friction by the difference of the net force and the applied force.

30N-24N = 6N

F_{f} = 6N

Tarzan (75 kg) swings from 4 metres high on a vine down to ground level and catches Jane (50 kg). How fast are they moving after
Kruka [31]

Try this solution (if it is possible, check it in other sources):

1. for m_Tarzan=75kg., initial_height=4m., end_height=0 m. and g=10 N/kg. Energy is:

E=m_{Tarzan}*(H_{initial}-H_{end})*g=75*4*10=3000(J).

2. The same value of Energy is applied for m_Tarzan+Jane=75+50=125 kg.:

E=\frac{m_{Tarzan+Jane}* Speed^2}{2}; \ => \ Speed=\sqrt{ \frac{2*E}{m_{Tarzan+Jane}}};

3. According to the formula of the Speed:

Speed=sqrt(6000/125)=sqrt(48)=4sqrt(3)≈4*1.71=6.84 (m/s)


Answer: 6.84 (m. per sec.)

Coherent light with wavelength 540 nm passes through narrow slits with a separation of 0.370 mm .Part AAt a distance from the sl
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

The phase difference between waves 31.7 rad

Explanation:

Given :

Wavelength \lambda = 540 \times 10^{-9} m

Separation between two slit d = 0.370 \times 10^{-3} m

Angle \theta = 25°

From the formula of phase difference,

  \delta = \frac{2\pi d }{\lambda}  \sin \theta

Where \delta = phase difference

\delta = \frac{2 \times \pi \times 0.370 \times 10^{-3} }{540 \times 10^{-9} } \sin 25

\delta = 31.7 rad

Therefore, the phase difference between waves 31.7 rad

When is a body said to be at rest
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

rest is the state of a body which is stationary relative to a particular frame of reference or another object.  When the state of a body does not changes with time with respect to its surroundings in a particular frame of reference that time  it is said to be at rest.

in other words we can say that when a body has zero velocity and its position is not changing with time relative to its surrounding then it is said to be at rest.

For example a chair on which you are sitting is at rest or a table on which your desktop is kept is rest because its position is not changing.
