A 460 W heating unit is designed to operate with an applied potential difference of 120 V (a) By what percentage will its heat o

utput drop if the applied potential difference drops to 110 V? Assume no change in resistance. %(b) If you took the variation of resistance with temperature into account, would the actual drop in heat output be larger or smaller than that calculated in (a)?

Answer:

(a) = -0.16%

(b) = smaller

Explanation:

given

power = 460 W

potential difference = 120 V

(a) what percentage will   its heat output drop if the applied potential difference drops to 110 V ?

we know p = \frac{v^2}{R} .....................(i)

we need to find change in power

\Delta P = \frac{\Delta (V^2)}{R}  

\Delta P = \frac{2 V \Delta V}{R}..............(ii)

from equations we get

\frac{\Delta P}{P} =  \frac{2 \Delta V}{V}

\frac{\Delta P}{P} = 2 \frac{110 -120}{120}

\frac{\Delta P}{P} =  -2(\frac{10}{120})

\frac{\Delta P}{P} = - 0.16 %

(b)

if we increase temperature resistance will increase and decrease with decrease in temperature and we know power is inversely proportional to resistance so if potential decrease and it would cause drop in power

and due to this increment of heating power resistance will decrease so actual drop in the power would  be smaller

A rocket sled with an initial mass of 3 metric tons, invluding 1 ton of fuel, rests on a level section of track. At t=0, the sol
ELEN [110]

Answer:

v = 719.2 m / s and     a = 83.33 m / s²

Explanation:

This is a rocket propulsion system where the system is made up of the rocket plus the ejected mass, where the final velocity is

           v - v₀ = v_{e} ln (M₀ / M)

where v₀ is the initial velocity, v_{e} the velocity of the gases with respect to the rocket and M₀ and M the initial and final masses of the rocket

In this case, if fuel burns at 75 kg / s, we can calculate the fuel burned for the 10 s

            m_fuel = 75 10

            m_fuel = 750 kg

As the rocket initially had a mass of 3000 kg including 1000 kg of fuel, there are still 250 kg, so the mass of the rocket minus the fuel burned is

              M = 3000 -750 = 2250 kg

let's calculate

            v - 0 = 2500 ln (3000/2250)

            v = 719.2 m / s

To calculate the acceleration, let's use the concept of the rocket thrust, which is the force of the gases on it. In the case of the rocket, it is

             Push = v_{e} dM / dt

let's calculate

             Push = 2500  75

             Push = 187500 N

            If we use Newton's second law

             F = m a

             a = F / m

let's calculate

              a = 187500/2250

              a = 83.33 m / s²

A soccer ball with a mass of 0.45 kg is kicked and is moving at 8.9 m/s. Find the kinetic
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

17.82J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy = 1/2 mv^2

Given

Mass M = 0.45kg

Velocity v = 8.9m/s

Therefore,

K.E. = 1/2 x 0.45 x (8.9)^2

= 1/2 x 0.45 x (8.9 x 8.9)

= 1/2 x 0.45 x 79.21

Multiply through

= 35.6445/2

= 17.82J

The kinetic energy of the ball is 17.82J
