Answer:

The current in wire resistance 2Ω

a). 8696 A

b). fraction power 15.1% a 115kV

Explanation:

Resistance

R=0.05Ω/Km*40km

R=2Ω

P=1000 MW

a).

P=V*I\\I=\frac{P}{V}=\frac{1000x10^{6}W}{115x10^{3}k }  =8696.65A

Using law ohm

b).

V=I*R\\I=\frac{V}{R}

P=I*I*R\\P=I^{2} *R\\P=8696.65^{2}*2\\P=151.228 x10^{6}  W

e=\frac{151.228x10^{6} }{1000x10^{6} }*100= 15.12%

You hold a ruler that has a charge on its tip 6 cm above a small piece of tissue paper to see if it can be picked up. The ruler
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

q=1.4*10^{-9}C

Explanation:

Given data:

charge on ruler = -14μC

Mass of tissue is 5 g

To Know the minimum charge,  equate electrostatic force to weight  

we have F = W

so\frac{KQq}{r^2} =mg

putting all value in equation,

=\frac{9*10^9*(14*10^{-6})*q}{0.06^2} = 5* 10^{-3}*9.8

solving for q

q =\frac{5* 10^{-3}*9.8 *0.06^2}{9*10^9*(14*10^{-6})}

or q=1.4*10^{-9}C

A 0.150 kg stone rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A bullet of mass 9.50 g, traveling horizontally at 380 m/s, strike
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

(a)Magnitude=28.81 m/s

Direction=33.3 degree below the horizontal

(b) No, it is not perfectly elastic collision

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of stone, M=0.150 kg

Mass of bullet, m=9.50 g=9.50\times 10^{3} kg

Initial speed of bullet, u=380 m/s

Initial speed of stone, U=0

Final speed of bullet, v=250m/s

a. We have to find the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the stone after it is struck.

Using conservation of momentum

mu+ MU=mv+ MV

Substitute the values

9.5\times 10^{-3}\times 380 i+0.150(0)=9.5\times 10^{-3} (250)j+0.150V

3.61i=2.375j+0.150V

3.61 i-2.375j=0.150V

V=\frac{1}{0.150}(3.61 i-2.375j)

V=24.07i-15.83j

Magnitude of velocity of stone

=\sqrt{(24.07)^2+(-15.83)^2}

|V|=28.81 m/s

Hence, the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the stone after it is struck, |V|=28.81 m/s

Direction

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{y}{x})

=tan^{-1}(\frac{-15.83}{24.07})

\theta=tan^{-1}(-0.657)

=33.3 degree below the horizontal

(b)

Initial kinetic energy

K_i=\frac{1}{2}mu^2+0=\frac{1}{2}(9.5\times 10^{-3})(380)^2

K_i=685.9 J

Final kinetic energy

K_f=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+\frac{1}{2}MV^2

=\frac{1}{2}(9.5\times 10^{-3})(250)^2+\frac{1}{2}(0.150)(28.81)^2

K_f=359.12 J

Initial kinetic energy is not equal to final kinetic energy. Hence, the collision is not perfectly elastic collision.

 I will mark you as brainliest if you answer correctly
aleksklad [387]
(A) We can solve the problem by using Ohm's law, which states:
V=IR
where
V is the potential difference across the electrical device
I is the current through the device
R is its resistance
For the heater coil in the problem, we know V=220 V and R=220 \Omega, therefore we can rearrange Ohm's law to find the current through the device:
I= \frac{V}{R}= \frac{220 V}{220 \Omega}=1 A

(B) The resistance of a conductive wire depends on three factors. In fact, it is given by:
R= \rho \frac{L}{A}
where
\rho is the resistivity of the material of the wire
L is the length of the wire
A is the cross-sectional area of the wire
Basically, we see that the longer the wire, the larger its resistance; and the larger the section of the wire, the smaller its resistance.

A hydraulic lift has pistons with diameter 28cm and 70cm, respectively. If a force of 500 N is exerted at the input piston. What
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

3125 N

Explanation:

diameter /2 =radius

so r1 =14cm , r2 =35cm

f1/A1 =f2/A2.

f2 = f1 × A2 / A1

=500×1225 pi cm² / 96 pi cm²

f2 =3125N

2. A Se lanza un electrón con rapidez inicial v0 = 1.60×106 m/s hacia el interior de un campo uniforme entre las placas paralela
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

A)     E = 145.6 N / C , B)  y= 2,8 10-7 m with a downward direction

C) he shape of the trajectory of the two particles is to simulate a parabola,

D)     F_{e} /F_{g} = 10³⁴

Explanation:

A) For this exercise we use Newton's second law to find the acceleration of the electron, where the force is electric

           F = m a  

           - e E = m a

          a = - e E / m

with the field directed downward, the acceleration is in the vertical upward direction.

We look for how much the electron moves with kinematics, in the x direction there is no acceleration,

x axis (parallel to plates)

           x = v₀ t

           t = x / v₀

y axis (perpendicular to plates)

          y = y₀ + v_{oy} t + ½ a t²

Let's take the zero of the system in the middle of the plates y₀ = 0, also the initial vertical velocity is zero (v_{oy} = 0) the width of the plate is known

          y = ½ a t²

we substitute

         y = ½ (e E /m)  (x / v₀)²

         y = ½ e x2 /m v₀²   E

we look for the electric field

        E = 2 m y v₀² / e x²

where to use this expression the length and width of the condenser must be known, suppose that the length is x = l = 1 cm = 1 10⁻² m and the width is y = 0.5 mm = 0.5 10⁻³ m

let's calculate

         E = 2  9.1 10⁻³¹ 0.5 10⁻³ (1.6 10⁶)² / (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ (1 10⁻²)²)

         E = 145.6 N / C

B) The electron is exchanged for a proton

Let's look for the vertical displacement, in this case as the proton has a positive charge it moves towards the bottom of the plates

          y = ½ e x² / m v₀² E

          y = ½ 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ 1 10⁻⁴ / (1.67 10⁻²⁷ (1.6 10⁶)²   145.6

          y = 28.4375 10⁻⁸ m

since the distance between the plates is 0.5 10-3 m, the proton passes the condensate because its deflection is very small

In summary, its displacement is y= 2,8 10-7 m and with a downward direction (the same direction of the electric field)

C) The shape of the trajectory of the two particles is to simulate a parabola, but one for having a negative charge (electron) the force is upwards and the other for having a positive charge (proton) the trajectory is downwards

D) The force of gravity

           F_{g} = G m M / R²

electron

          Between the electron and the positive charges of the conducting plate

           F_{g}= 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 1.67 10⁻²⁷ 9.1 10⁻³¹ / (0.5 10⁻³)²

           F_{g} = 4.1 10⁻⁵¹ N

           

electric force

           F_{e} = -e E

           F_{e} = - 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ 145.6

           F_{e} = 2.3 10⁻¹⁷ N

let's look for the reason between these two forces

         F_{e} / F_{g} = 2.3 10⁻¹⁷ / 4.1 10⁻⁵¹

          F_{e} /F_{g} = 10³⁴

We see that the electric force is many orders of magnitude higher than the gravitational force.
