Answer:

Total Solar Eclipse      

Explanation:

Solar eclipse occurs when moon covers the disc of the Sun. Annular eclipse occurs when the width of the moon in the sky is smaller than the width of the Sun. When the width of the moon is larger, the moon would cover the Sun completely and Total solar eclipse is said to occur.

The width of the Moon in the sky is 32 arc-minute and that of the Sun is 30 arc-minute. The Moon would fully cover the Sun because the width of the Moon is larger than the Sun. Thus, Total Solar eclipse would occur.

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

The maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance is 16.6 kg

Explanation:

Hi there!

Due to conservation of energy, the potential energy (PE) of the mass at a height of 3.32 m will be transformed into elastic potential energy (EPE) when it falls on the mattress:

PE = EPE

m · g · h = 1/2 k · x²

Where:

m = mass.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

h = height.

k = spring constant.

x = compression distance

The maximum compression distance is 0.1289 m, then, the maximum elastic potential energy will be the following:

EPE =1/2 k · x²

EPE = 1/2 · 65144 N/m · (0.1289 m)² = 541.2 J

Then, using the equation of gravitational potential energy:

PE = m · g · h =  541.2 J

m =  541.2 J/ g · h

m = 541.2 kg · m²/s² / (9.8 m/s² · 3.32 m)

m = 16.6 kg

The maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance is 16.6 kg.

A 8.2-V battery is connected in series with a 38-mH inductor, a 150-Ω resistor, and an open switch.A 8.2-V battery is connected
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

(A). The current in the circuit is 19.25 mA.

(B). The store energy in the inductor is 7.04 μJ.

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage = 8.2 V

Inductor = 38 mH

Resistance = 150 Ω

Time t = 0.110 ms

The battery has negligible internal resistance, so that the total resistance  in the circuit is 150 ohms. Then use this equation for current at time t in terms of inductance

We need to calculate the current

Using formula of current

I(t)=\dfrac{V}{R}\times(1-e^{-t\times\dfrac{R}{L}})

Put the value into the formula

I(t)=\dfrac{8.2}{150}\times(1-e^{-0.110\times10^{-3}\times\dfrac{150}{38\times10^{-3}}})

I(t)=0.01925\ A

I(t) = 19.25\ mA

(B). We need to calculate the store energy in the inductor

Using formula of energy

E=\dfrac{1}{2}LI^2

Put the value into the formula

E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times38\times10^{-3}\times(0.01925)^2

E=7.04\times10^{-6}\ J

{tex]E=7.04\ \mu J[/tex]

Hence, (A). The current in the circuit is 19.25 mA.

(B). The store energy in the inductor is 7.04 μJ.

An underground gasoline tank can hold 1.07 103 gallons of gasoline at 52.0°F. If the tank is being filled on a day when the outd
Damm [24]

Answer:

1069.38 gallons

Explanation:

Let V₀ = 1.07 × 10³ be the initial volume of the gasoline at temperature θ₁ = 52 °F. Let V₁ be the volume at θ₂ = 97 °F.

V₁ = V₀(1 + βΔθ)  β = coefficient of volume expansion for gasoline = 9.6 × 10⁻⁴ °C⁻¹

Δθ = (5/9)(97°F -52°F) °C = 25 °C.

Let V₂ be its final volume when it cools to 52°F in the tank is

V₂ = V₁(1 - βΔθ) = V₀(1 + βΔθ)(1 - βΔθ) = V₀(1 - [βΔθ]²)

    = 1.07 × 10³(1 - [9.6 × 10⁻⁴ °C⁻¹ × 25 °C]²)

    = 1.07 × 10³(1 - [0.024]²)

    =  1.07 × 10³(1 - 0.000576)

    = 1.07 × 10³(0.999424)

    = 1069.38 gallons
