They sometimes reduce the voltage to prevent a potential blackout caused by the system being overworked, this saves them money that they would have to spend to make repairs

barxatty [35]
The amplitude did not change when the recurrence was expanded on the grounds that the long headstrong time of the heart forestalls adjustment. It is the most extreme removal or separation moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave measured from its balance position. It is equivalent to the one-a large portion of the length of the vibration way.

Starting from rest, a 2.1x10^-4 kg flea springs straight upward. While the flea is pushing off from the ground, the ground exert
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

a) The flea's speed when it leaves the ground is v=1.88m/s

b) The flea move 18cm upward while it is pushing off

Explanation:

Hi

<u>Knwons</u>

Mass m=2.1\times 10^{-4} kg, Work W=3.7\times 10^{-4} J and Force F=0.41N

a) Here we are going to use W=\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}, so v=\sqrt{\frac{2W}{m} }= \sqrt{\frac{2(3.7\times 10^{-4} J)}{2.1\times 10^{-4} kg} }=1.88m/s

a) Here we are going to use W=mgh, so h=\frac{W}{mg}= \frac{3.7\times 10^{-4} J}{(2.1\times 10^{-4} kg)(9.8m/s^{2})} =0,1797m or 18cm approx.

a light ray traveling in air enters a second medium and its speed slows to 1.71 × 10^8 meters per second. what is the absolute i
givi [52]
The absolute refractive index is equal to the speed of light of the wave in air divided by the speed of light in the second medium. This means that it is equal to 3 x10^8 / 1.71 x10^8. This means the answer is 1.75

Three charges, each of magnitude 10 nC, are at separate corners of a square of edge length 3 cm. The two charges at opposite cor
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

The force exerted by three charges on the fourth is F_{resultant}=2.74\times10^{-5}\ \rm N

Explanation:

Given:

  • The magnitude of three identical charges, q=10\ \rm nC
  • Length of the edge of the square a=3 cm
  • Magnitude of fourth charge ,Q=3 nC

According to coulombs Law the force F between any two charge particles is given by

F=\dfrac{kQq}{r^2}

where r is the radial distance between them.

Since the force acting on the charge particle will be in different directions so according to triangle law of vector addition

F_{resultant}=\sqrt ((\dfrac{kQq}{L^2})^2+(\dfrac{kQq}{L^2} })^2)+\dfrac{kQq}{(\sqrt{2}L)^2}\\F_{resultant}=\dfrac{kQq}{L^2}(\sqrt{2}-\dfrac{1}{2})\\F_{resultant}=\dfrac{9\times10^9\times10\times10^{-10}\times3\times10^{-9}}{0.03^2}(\sqrt{2}-\dfrac{1}{2})\\F_{resultant}=2.74\times 10^{-5}\ \rm N

A bomb of mass 4 kg, initially at rest, explodes breaking into two fragments of 1 kg and 3 kg. Which one of the following statem
Kazeer [188]

Answer: The 1 kg fragment will have three times the speed of the 3kg fragment.

Explanation:Here for the bomb, its chemical energy gets converted into the mechanical energy.

According to the law of conservation of momentum, the two bodies will have equal momentum and to satisfy this condition the lighter mass will have the higher velocity.

∵ momentum, p = mass × velocity

∴The 1 kg fragment will have three times the speed of the 3kg fragment.
