Answer:
Current, I = 0.0011 A
Explanation:
It is given that,
Diameter of rod, d = 2.56 cm
Radius of rod, r = 1.28 cm = 0.0128 m
The resistivity of the pure silicon, 
Length of rod, l = 20 cm = 0.2 m
Voltage, 
The resistivity of the rod is given by :


R = 893692.30 ohms
Current flowing in the rod is calculated using Ohm's law as :
V = I R


I = 0.0011 A
So, the current flowing in the rod is 0.0011 A. Hence, this is the required solution.
Even though the wind "tries" to flow from high pressure to low pressure, the turning of the Earth causes the air flow to turn to the right (in the Northern Hemisphere), so the jet stream flows around the air masses, rather than directly from one to the other.
Answer:
x = 0.974 L
Explanation:
given,
length of inclination of log = 30°
mass of log = 200 Kg
rock is located at = 0.6 L
L is the length of the log
mass of engineer = 53.5 Kg
let x be the distance from left at which log is horizontal.
For log to be horizontal system should be in equilibrium
∑ M = 0
mass of the log will be concentrated at the center
distance of rock from CM of log = 0.1 L
now,
∑ M = 0



x = 0.974 L
hence, distance of the engineer from the left side is equal to x = 0.974 L
Answer
given,
mass of ball, m = 57.5 g = 0.0575 kg
velocity of ball northward,v = 26.7 m/s
mass of racket, M = 331 g = 0.331 Kg
velocity of the ball after collision,v' = 29.5 m/s
a) momentum of ball before collision
P₁ = m v
P₁ = 0.0575 x 26.7
P₁ = 1.535 kg.m/s
b) momentum of ball after collision
P₂ = m v'
P₂ = 0.0575 x (-29.5)
P₂ = -1.696 kg.m/s
c) change in momentum
Δ P = P₂ - P₁
Δ P = -1.696 -1.535
Δ P = -3.231 kg.m/s
d) using conservation of momentum
initial speed of racket = 0 m/s
M u + m v = Mu' + m v
M x 0 + 0.0575 x 26.7 = 0.331 x u' + 0.0575 x (-29.5)
0.331 u' = 3.232
u' = 9.76 m/s
change in velocity of the racket is equal to 9.76 m/s
Velocity is a vector. Therefore, it depends on the direction. Pilots need to know the direction of wind, not just the speed. If the pilot is going South, and there's 5 mph wind going South, they'll be happy, but if the wind is going 5 mph North, they'll be going against the wind.
