Which procedure allow you to determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object

1 answer:

6 0

One solution to this problem is measuring water displacement.

If you put the irregularly shaped object in water, then measure the volume of the displaced water, you will have the volume of the irregular object.

Two charges are placed on the x axis. One of the charges (q1 = +7.7 µC) is at x1 = +3.1 cm and the other (q2 = -19 µC) is at x2

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

a) $E=50.53\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The direction will be negative direction.

b) $E=268.22\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The direction will be positive direction.

Explanation:

Given that

q1 = +7.7 µC is at x1 = +3.1 cm

q2 = -19 µC is at x2 = +8.9 cm

We know that electric filed due to a charge given as

$E=K\dfrac{q}{r^2}$

$E_1=K\dfrac{q_1}{r_1^2}$

$E_2=K\dfrac{q_2}{r_2^2}$

Now by putting the va;ues

$E_1=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{7.7\times 10^{-6}}{0.031^2}\ N/C$

$E_1=72.11\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

$E_2=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{19\times 10^{-6}}{0.089^2}\ N/C$

$E_2=21.58\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The net electric field

$E=E_1-E_2$

$E=50.53\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The direction will be negative direction.

As we know that electric filed line emerge from positive charge and concentrated at negative charge.

Now

distance for charge 1 will become =5.5 - 3.1 = 2.4 cm

distance for charge 2 will become =8.9-5.5 = 3.4 cm

$E_1=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{7.7\times 10^{-6}}{0.024^2}\ N/C$

$E_1=120.3\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

$E_2=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{19\times 10^{-6}}{0.034^2}\ N/C$

$E_2=147.92\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The net electric field

$E=E_1+E_2$

$E=268.22\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The direction will be positive direction.

The resistivity of a metal increases slightly with increased temperature. This can be expressed as rho= rho0[1+α(T−T0)] , where

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

At 81. 52 Deg C its resistance will be 0.31 Ω.

Explanation:

The resistance of wire = $R_T =\frac{\rho_T \ l}{A}$

Where $R_T$ =Resistance of wire at Temperature T

$\rho_T$ = Resistivity at temperature T $=\rho_0 \ [1 \ + \alpha\ (T-T_0\ )]$

Where $T_0 =20\ Deg\ C , \ \rho_0 = Constant, \alpha =3.9 \times 10^-^3 DegC^-1 \ (Given)$

l=Length of the wire

& A = Area of cross section of wire

For long and thin wire the resistance & resistivity relation will be as follows

$\frac{R_T_1}{R_T_2}=\frac{\rho_0(1+\alpha \cdot(T_1-2 0 )}{\rho_0(1+\alpha \cdot (T_2 -20 )}$

$\frac{0.25}{0.31}=\frac{1}{[1+\alpha(T-20)]}$

$1.24=1+\alpha (T-20)$

$0.24=\alpha(\ T -20 )$

$Putting\ the\ value\ of \alpha = 3.9 \times 10^-^3 DegC^-1$

T = 81.52 Deg C

Compare and contrast electric potential energy and electric potential difference? Explain.

forsale [732]

Answer:

Electric Potential Energy:

The energy that is needed to move a charge against an electric firld is called Electric Potential Energy

Electric Potential Difference:

The amount of work done in carrying a unit charge from one point to an other in an electric field is called Electric Potential Difference.

Relation:

Relation between Electric potential and electrical potential energy is given by

$\delta V=\frac{PE}{q}$

Here PE represents Electric potential energy

and $\delta V$ is Electric potential difference

it means electric potential difference is the difference in electric potential energy divided by the charge.

!!HELP HELP!!

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

7.5s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Velocity = 30m/s

Deceleration = 4m/s²

Unknown:

Time it takes for the car to come to complete rest = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the kinematics expression below:

v = u + at

Since this is a deceleration

v = u - at

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time taken

v - u = -at

0 - 30 = -4 x t

-30 = -4t

t = 7.5s

07. How do scientists use spectroscopy (the study of light frequencies released

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Every element is able to be recognized individually in many different ways. A very easy and common way is using light absorption also known as spectroscopy. Every atom has electrons, and these electrons like to stay in their lowest-energy configuration. However, when photons collide with an electron it can increase it to a higher energy level.. This is absorption, and each element’s electrons absorb light at specific wavelengths related to the difference between energy levels in that atom. But the electrons want to return to their original levels, so they don’t hold onto the energy for long. When they emit the energy, they release photons with exactly the same wavelengths of light that were absorbed in the first place. An electron can release this light in any direction, so most of the light is emitted in directions away from our line of sight. Therefore, a dark line appears in the spectrum at that particular wavelength.

Because the wavelengths at which absorption lines occur are unique for each element, astronomers can measure the position of the lines to determine which elements are present in a target. The amount of light that is absorbed can also provide information about how much of each element is present.
