I = V/Z

V = voltage, I = current, Z = impedance

First let's find the total impedance of the circuit.

The impedance of the resistor is:

$Z_{R}$ = R

R = resistance

Given values:

R = 1200Ω

Plug in:

$Z_{R}$ = 1200Ω

The impedance of the inductor is:

$Z_{L}$ = j2πfL

f = source frequency, L = inductance

Given values:

f = 59Hz, L = 2.4H

Plug in:

$Z_{L}$ = j2π(59)(2.4) = j889.7Ω

Add up the individual impedances to get the Z, and convert Z to polar form:

Z = $Z_{R}$ + $Z_{L}$

Z = 1200 + j889.7

Z = 1494∠36.55°Ω

I = V/Z

Given values:

V = 170∠0°V (assume 0 initial phase)

Z = 1494∠36.55°Ω

I = 170∠0°/1494∠36.55°Ω

I = 0.1138∠-36.55°A

Round the magnitude of I to 2 significant figures and now you have your maximum current:

I = 0.11A

A fighter bomber is making a bombing run flying horizontally at 500 knots (256m/s) at an altitude of 100.0m.

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

<em>(a) t = 4.52 sec</em>

<em>(b) X = 1,156.49 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Horizontal Launching </u>

If an object is launched horizontally, its initial speed is zero in the y-coordinate and the horizontal component of the velocity $v_o$ remains the same in time. The distance x is computed as .

$\displaystyle x=v_o.t$

(a)

The vertical component of the velocity $v_y$ starts from zero and gradually starts to increase due to the acceleration of gravity as follows

$v_y=gt$

This means the vertical height is computed by

$\displaystyle h=h_o-\frac{gt^2}{2}$

Where $h_o$ is the initial height. Our fighter bomber is 100 m high, so we can compute the time the bomb needs to reach the ground by solving the above equation for t knowing h=0

$\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2h_o}{g}}$

$\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2(100)}{9.8}}=4.52\ sec$

(b)

We now compute the horizontal distance knowing $v_o=256\ m/s$

$\displaystyle x=(256).(4.52)$

$X=1,156.49\ m$

A 0.29 kg particle moves in an xy plane according to x(t) = - 19 + 1 t - 3 t3 and y(t) = 20 + 7 t - 9 t2, with x and y in meters

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Part a)

$F = 7.76 N$

Part b)

$\theta = -137.7 degree$

Part c)

$\theta = -127.7 degree$

Explanation:

As we know that acceleration is rate of change in velocity of the object

So here we know that

$x = -19 + t - 3t^3$

$y = 20 + 7t - 9t^2$

Part a)

differentiate x and y two times with respect to time to find the acceleration

$a_x = \frac{d^2}{dt^2}(-19 + t - 3t^3)$

$a_x = \frac{d}{dt}(0 +1 - 9t^2)$

$a_x = -18t$

$a_y = \frac{d^2}{dt^2}(20 + 7t - 9t^2)$

$a_y = \frac{d}{dt}(0 +7 - 18t)$

$a_y = -18$

Now the acceleration of the object is given as

$\vec a = (-18t)\hat i + (-18)\hat j$

at t= 1.1 s we have

$\vec a = -19.8 \hat i - 18 \hat j$

now the net force of the object is given as

$\vec F = m\vec a$

$\vec F = (0.29 kg)(-19.8 \hat i - 18 \hat j)$

$\vec F = -5.74 \hat i - 5.22 \hat j$

now magnitude of the force will be

$F = \sqrt{5.74^2 + 5.22^2} = 7.76 N$

Part b)

Direction of the force is given as

$tan\theta = \frac{F_y}{F_x}$

$tan\theta = \frac{-5.22}{-5.74}$

$\theta = -137.7 degree$

Part c)

For velocity of the particle we have

$v_x = \frac{dx}[dt}$

$v_x = (0 +1 - 9t^2)$

$v_y = \frac{dy}{dt}$

$v_y = (0 +7 - 18t)$

now at t = 1.1 s

$\vec v = -9.89\hat i - 12.8 \hat j$

now the direction of the velocity is given as

$\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{v_y}{v_x})$

$\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{-12.8}{-9.89})$

$\theta = -127.7 degree$

Which of the following statements concerning the nuclear force is false? O The nuclear force is attractive and not repulsive. O

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

The nuclear force is attractive and not repulsive.
The nuclear force is very weak and much smaller in relative magnitude than the electrostatic and gravitational forces.

Explanation:

Nuclear force is the strongest existing force in the nature.

It has the shortest range.

Its main function is to hold the subatomic particles together in nature.

The nuclear force is created by the exchange of pi mesons between the nucleons of an atom, but for this exchange to happen the particles must be close to one another of the order of few femtometer.

At about 1 femtometer the nuclear force is very strongly attractive in nature but at distance greater than 2.5 femtometer it fades away.

The force becomes repulsive in nature at distance less than 0.7 femtometer.
This force holds the likely charged protons together in the nucleus.

Peer assessment is a unique educational model. Think back to how you felt about peer assessment at the beginning of the term, an

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

In the beginning, I was not familiar to assess assessments of the other students. Ifelt a little bit weird that is it possible to check assignments while having an instructor.I was also a bit frustrated, to be honest, that why do we have to assess thoseassessments. It was kind of extra burden for me. But after few weeks assessingmore assignments, my feeling had changed because I was learning lots of thingsthat were changing my perspectives. I was gaining extra knowledge from my peersin the form of assessments. Yes, I am comfortable with assessing assessments,because I got to learn many vocabularies and making structures of the sentencecorrectly by improving grammatically as I am not a native English speaker. Thus, inthis way, I was learning something new in each and every assessment.
