There are two types of mechanical waves:

longitudinal waves : Their displacement is in a direction perpendicular to the vibrations of the wave forming crests and troughs.

Transverse waves : They have the vibrations in the direction of the wave forming compressions and rarefactions.

A carbon rod with a radius of 1.9 mm is used to make a resistor. What length of the carbon rod should be used to make a 3.7 Ω re
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Length = 2.32 m

Explanation:

Let the length required be 'L'.

Given:

Resistance of the resistor (R) = 3.7 Ω

Radius of the rod (r) = 1.9 mm = 0.0019 m [1 mm = 0.001 m]

Resistivity of the material of rod (ρ) = 1.8\times 10^{-5}\ \Omega\cdot m

First, let us find the area of the circular rod.

Area is given as:

A=\pi r^2=3.14\times (0.0019)^2=1.13\times 10^{-5}\ m^2

Now, the resistance of the material is given by the formula:

R=\rho( \frac{L}{A})

Express this in terms of 'L'. This gives,

\rho\times L=R\times A\\\\L=\frac{R\times A}{\rho}

Now, plug in the given values and solve for length 'L'. This gives,

L=\frac{3.7\ \Omega\times 1.13\times 10^{-5}\ m^2}{1.8\times 10^{-5}\ \Omega\cdot m}\\\\L=\frac{4.181}{1.8}=2.32\ m

Therefore, the length of the material required to make a resistor of 3.7 Ω is 2.32 m.

2. A car accelerates uniformly from +10.0 m/s to +50.0 m/s over a distance of 225 m. How long did it take to go that distance? S
artcher [175]
Let's call the constant acceleration a.
At a time t, its speed will thus be v(t)=a*t+v0 where v0 is its initial speed, here 10 m/s. Hence v(t)=a*t+10.

From there we can deduce the position P(t)=a*t^2/2+10t+p0 where p0 is the initial position, here 0.

Hence P(t)=a*t^2/2+10t

Let's call T the time at which it's at 50 m/s, we know that P(T)=225m and that v(T)=50 m/s hence a*T+10=50 thus a=40/T and P(T)=(40/2+10)T=30T

Hence T=225/30=7.5

It took 7.5 seconds

A charged capacitor is connected to an ideal inductor. At time t = 0, the charge on the capacitor is equal to 6.00 μC. At time t
Len [333]

Answer:

4.71\times 10^{-3}A

Explanation:

Q_{max} = Maximum charge stored by capacitor = 6 μC = 6 x 10⁻⁶ C

t  = time taken for charge on the capacitor to become zero = 2 ms = 2 x 10⁻³ s

Time period is given as

T = 4t

T = 4(2\times 10^{-3})

T = 8\times 10^{-3} s

Angular frequency is given as

w = \frac{2\pi }{T}

w = \frac{2(3.14) }{8\times 10^{-3}}

w =785 rad/s

Charge at any time is given as

Q(t) = Q_{max}Coswt

Taking derivative both side relative to "t"

\frac{\mathrm{d}Q(t) }{\mathrm{d} t} = \frac{\mathrm{d}(Q_{max}Coswt) }{\mathrm{d} t}

i(t)= -Q_{max} w Sinwt

Amplitude of the current is given as

i_{max}= Q_{max} w

i_{max}= (6\times 10^{-6}) (785)

i_{max}= 4.71\times 10^{-3}A
