A power transmission line is hung from metal towers with glass insulators having a resistance of 1.00×109 Ω . What current flows

through the insulator if the voltage is 200 kV? (Some high-voltage lines are DC.)
Physics

Answer:

The current flows through the insulator is 2 mA.

Explanation:

Given that,

Resistance R=1.00\times10^{9}\ \Omega

Voltage = 200 kV

We need to calculate the current

Using ohm's law

V=IR

I=\dfrac{V}{R}

Where, I = current

V = voltage

R = resistance

Put the value into the formula

I=\dfrac{200\times10^{3}}{1.00\times10^{9}}

I=0.0002\ A

I=2\ mA

Hence, The current flows through the insulator is 2 mA.

Speed of 26.7 m/s in 3.06 s. How far had the car traveled by the time the final speed was achieved?
Alik [6]

Answer:

Below

Explanation:

You can use this equation to find the distance :

     distance = velocity x time

     distance = (26.7)(3.06)

                    = 81.702 m

Rounding to 3 sig figs

     = 81.7 m

Hope this helps

Two identical 0.400 kg masses are pressed against opposite ends of a light spring of force constant 1.75 N/cm, compressing the s
nlexa [21]

Answer:

0.853 m/s

Explanation:

Total energy stored in the spring = Total kinetic energy of the masses.

1/2ke² = 1/2m'v².................... Equation 1

Where k = spring constant of the spring, e = extension, m' = total mass, v = speed of the masses.

make v the subject of the equation,

v = e[√(k/m')].................... Equation 2

Given: e = 39 cm = 0.39 m, m' = 0.4+0.4 = 0.8 kg, k = 1.75 N/cm = 175 N/m.

Substitute into equation 2

v = 0.39[√(1.75/0.8)

v = 0.39[2.1875]

v = 0.853 m/s

Hence the speed of each mass = 0.853 m/s

How long will the ball be in the air if the cliff is 120 m tall and the ball falls to the base of the cliff?
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

4.95s≈5s

Use equation :

h=G*t²/2

h=120m ----hight of cliff

G=9.81m/s²

t=?

-----------------------

h=G*t²/2

120m=9.81m/s²*t²/2

240m=9.81m/s²*t²

t²=240m/ 9.81m/s²

t²=24.46s

t=√24.46s²

t=4.95 s≈5s

what would happen when an inflated balloon is place in an ice bath and the atmosphere pressure has not changed?
ruslelena [56]

The inflated balloon shrinks when it is placed in an ice bath with no change in atmospheric pressure.  

<u>Explanation:</u>

        When the inflated balloon is subjected to an ice bath, it shrinks. This is due to the fact that smaller volume gets occupied by the air/gas inside the balloon as the temperature decreases. Hence, causes the balloon walls to collapse.  

         An ice bath also lowers the overall air temperature of the balloon inside. As the temperature decreases, the air molecules move more slowly and with lower energy. Because of the particle's lower energy, their collisions with the walls are not enough to keep the inflated balloon.
