Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter D.

Explanation:

a.The mass that a mole of substance has, measured in grams per mole. Density is not measure in moles, so this is not the correct answer.

b.The amount of substance dissolved in a liquid, measured in moles per liter. The substance dissolved in a liquid must be measure in grams not in moles, so this answer is incorrect.

c.The mass of substance dissolved in a liquid, measured in grams per milliliter. I think that this definition is correct but is incomple, so this answer is wrong.

d.The ratio of a substance's mass to its volume, measured in grams per milliliter and also equivalent to grams per cubic centimeter. This is the right description to density, so this is the correct answer.

A power plant produces 1000 MW to supply a city 40 km away. Current flows from the power plant on a single wire of resistance 0.

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Current = 8696 A

Fraction of power lost = $\dfrac{80}{529}$ = 0.151

Explanation:

Electric power is given by

$P=IV$

where I is the current and V is the voltage.

$I=\dfrac{P}{V}$

Using values from the question,

$I=\dfrac{1000\times10^6 \text{ W}}{115\times10^3\text{ V}} = 8696 \text{ A}$

The power loss is given by

$P_\text{loss} = I^2R$

where R is the resistance of the wire. From the question, the wire has a resistance of $0.050\Omega$ per km. Since resistance is proportional to length, the resistance of the wire is

$R = 0.050\times40 = 2\Omega$

Hence,

$P_\text{loss} = \left(\dfrac{200000}{23}\right)^2\times2$

The fraction lost = $\dfrac{P_\text{loss}}{P}=\left(\dfrac{200000}{23}\right)^2\times2\div (1000\times10^6)=\dfrac{80}{529}=0.151$

A circular loop of wire with a radius of 15.0cm and oriented in the horizontal xy-plane is located in a region of uniform magnet

Drupady [299]

Answer:

See answer

Explanation:

The area of the circular loop is given by:

$A = \pi r^2$

The magnetic flux is given by:

$\phi = \int \vec{B} \cdot d\vec{A}$

$d\vec{A}$ is parallel to $\vec{B}$ and $\vec{B}$ is constant in magnitude and direction therefore:

$\phi = \int \vec{B} \cdot d\vec{A}= \int BdAcos(0)= B\int dA= B*(\pi r^2)= \pi Br^2$

Part A)

initially the flux is $\phi =\pi B r^2$

after the interval $\Delta t= 2.4 [m/s]$

the flux is

$\phi = 0$

now, the EMF is defined as:

$\epsilon =- \frac{d \phi}{dt}$ ,

if we consider $\Delta t= 2.4 [m/s]$ very small then we can re-write it as:

$\epsilon =- \frac{\Delta \phi}{\Delta t}$

$\Delta \phi = 0 - \pi B r^2=-\pi (1.7) (0.15)^2=-0.12$

then:

$\epsilon =- \frac{-0.12}{0.0024} = 50 [V]$

Part B)

When looked down from above, the current flows counter clockwise, according to the right hand rule, if you place your thumb upwards (the direction of the magnetic field) and close your fingers, then the current will flow in the direction of your fingers.

Convert 1nanosecond in to its SI init

SOVA2 [1]

<em>Convert 1nanosecond in to its SI init</em>

<em>In SI units, nano is 1000th part of micro which in turn is 1000th part of mini which in turn is 1000th part of main unit. Now, when you affix nano to any unit, here in case, second, it means that you are referring to 1000th part of 1000th part of 1000th part of second or in short, 1000000000th(10^9) part of a second.</em>
