The total charge that an automobile battery can supply without being recharged is given in terms of Ampere-hours. A typical 12-V

battery has a rating of 49 A · h . Suppose you forget to turn off the headlights in your parked automobile. If each of the two headlights draws 3.5 A , find out the time before your battery is "dead". Answer in units of hours. Answer in units of h

Answer:

7 hours

Explanation:

The total charge contained in the battery is

Q = 49 A \cdot h

And this is a charge, since it is a current multiplied by a time:

Q=It

The current drawn by each headlight (which is the charge consumed per second) is

I=3.5 A

Since we have two headlight, the total current drawn is

I=3.5 \cdot 2 = 7 A

Therefore, the total charge consumed by the two headlights each hour is

q = I \cdot h = 7 A \cdot h

So, the time before the battery is dead is

t=\frac{Q}{q}=\frac{49 Ah}{7Ah}=7 h

What is the length of an aluminum rod at 65°C if its length at 15°C is 1.2 meters? A. 0.00180 meter B. 1.201386 meters C. 1.2
Deffense [45]

Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Thermal expansion

            \Delta L=L\alpha \Delta T

L = 1.2 meter

ΔT = 65 - 15 = 50°C

Thermal Expansion Coefficient for aluminum, α = 24 x 10⁻⁶/°C

We have change in length

          \Delta L=L\alpha \Delta T=1.2\times 24\times 10^{-6}\times 50=1.44\times 10^{-3}m

New length = 1.2 + 1.44 x 10⁻³ = 1.2014 m

Option B is the correct answer.

Elena (60.0 kg) and Madison (65.0 kg) are ice-skating at the Rockefeller ice rink in New Yok city. Their friend Tanner sees Elen
Bas_tet [7]

1. +72.0 kg m/s

The momentum of an object is given by:

p = mv

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

Taking "to the right" as positive direction, for Elena we have

m = 60.0 kg is the mass

v = +1.20 m/s is the velocity

So, Elena's momentum is

p_e=(60.0 kg)(+1.20 m/s)=+72.0 kg m/s

2. -162.5 kg m/s

Here Madison is moving in the opposite direction of Elena (to the left), so her velocity is

v = -2.50 m/s

while her mass is

m = 65.0 kg

Therefore, her momentum is

p_m= (65.0 kg)(-2.50 m/s)=-162.5 kg m/s

3. -90.5 kg m/s

The total momentum of Elena and Madison is equal to the algebraic sum of their momenta; taking into account the correct signs, we have:

p=p_e + p_m = +72.0 kg m/s - 162.5 kg m/s =-90.5 kg m/s

4. 0.72 m/s to the left

We can find the final speed of Elena and Madison by using the law of conservation of momentum. In fact, the final momentum must be equal to the initial momentum (before the collision).

The initial momentum is the one calculated at the previous step:

p_i = -90.5 kg m/s

while the final momentum (after the collision) is given by

p_f = (m_e + m_m) v

where

m_e is Elena's mass

m_m is Madison's mass

v is their final velocity

According to the law of conservation of momentum,

p_i = p_f\\p_i = (m_e + m_m) v

So we can find v:

v=\frac{p_i}{m_e + m_m}=\frac{-90.5 kg m/s}{60.0 kg+65.0 kg}=-0.72 m/s

and the direction is to the left, since the sign is negative.

1. Why should you use scientific notation when writing big numbers?
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

It helps the answer look clean. It also makes the work easier to work with.

Explanation:

Instead of writing a lot of zeros, all you have to do is add exponents to the number to show how much the decimal moved.
