Answer:

It is given that power = 5000 W for 120 V and resistance is 1.24\Omega per 1000 ft of wire. The wire is 750 ft away from 120 V source. We need find the voltage delivered to this load.

Power, P=Voltage(E)\times Current(I)

\Rightarrow I=\frac{P}{E}=\frac{5000W}{120V}=41.67 A

Resistance of 750 ft wire, =R=\frac{1.24\Omega}{1000 ft}\times750 ft=0.93\Omega

Using Ohm's Law:

Voltage delivered to the load, V=IR

\Rightarrow V=41.67A\times0.93\Omega=38.75 V

A horse of mass 242 kg pulls a cart of mass 224 kg. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . What is the largest acceleration
Rufina [12.5K]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Newton's second Law and the force of friction. According to Newton, the Force is defined as

F = ma

Where,

m= Mass

a = Acceleration

At the same time the frictional force can be defined as,

F_f = \mu N

Where,

\mu = Frictional coefficient

N = Normal force (mass*gravity)

Our values are given as,

m_h = 242 kg\\m_c = 224 kg\\\mu = 0.894\\

By condition of Balance the friction force must be equal to the total net force, that is to say

F_{net} = F_f

m_{total}a = \mu m_hg

(m_h+m_c)a = \mu*m_h*g

Re-arrange to find acceleration,

a= \frac{\mu*m_h*g}{(m_h+m_c)}

a = \frac{0.894*242*9.8}{(242+224)}

a = 4.54 m/s^2

Therefore the acceleration the horse can give is 4.54m/s^2

Volcanism on Earth is always associated with plate tectonic activity.
hjlf

Volcanism is associated with two of the plate boundary types: divergent and convergent margins. ... Volcanism can also occur at intraplate volcanoes. These volcanoes are believed to have sources deeper down in the Earth's mantle that remain in a relatively fixed location relative to the always migrating plate boundaries.

explain how metamorphic rocks are formed, and explain the differences between regional and contact metamorphism?
Igoryamba
Metamorphic rocks form when pre-existing or parent rocks (whether igneous, sedimentary, or even metamorphic) are altered by heat, pressure, and the chemical activity of fluids. When the dominant altering factor is heat, usually  from direct contact , it may undergo fundamental change  in texture and recrystallization is called contact metamorphism. While regional metamorphism,  where rocks texture and minerals are changed by heat and pressure.
