Answer:

100,048

Explanation:

K.E = 1/2 m (v)^2

K.E = 1^/2 * 74 * (52)^2

K.E = 100,048J =100.048kJ

Problem 21-40a:
Greeley [361]

Answer:

Part a)

\frac{F_e}{F_g} = 2.74 \times 10^{12}

Part b)

q = 3.37 \times 10^{-4} C

Explanation:

As we know that electric force on electric charge is given as

F = qE

here we have

q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}C

E = 153 N/C

now force is given as

F = (1.6 \times 10^{-19})(153) = 2.45 \times 10^{-17} N

Gravitational force on electric charge near surface of earth is given as

F_g = mg

F_g = (9.1 \times 10^{-31})(9.81) = 8.93 \times 10^[-30} N

now the ratio of two forces is given as

\frac{F_e}{F_g} = \frac{2.45 \times 10^{-17}}{8.93 \times 10^{-30}}

\frac{F_e}{F_g} = 2.74 \times 10^{12}

Part b)

Now the ball is balanced by the electric force and the force of gravity on it

so here we have

F_g = qE

mg = qE

(5.25 \times 10^{-3})(9.81) = q(153)

here we have

q = 3.37 \times 10^{-4} C

A 1.40 mH inductor and a 1.00 µF capacitor are connected in series. The current in the circuit is described by I = 14.0 t, where
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Inductance L = 1.4 x 10⁻³ H

Capacitance C = 1 x 10⁻⁶ F

a )

current I = 14 .0 t

dI / dt  = 14

voltage across inductor

= L dI / dt

= 1.4 x 10⁻³ x 14

= 19.6 x 10⁻³ V

= 19.6 mV

It does not depend upon time because it is constant at 19.6 mV.

b )

Voltage across capacitor

V = ∫ dq / C

= 1 / C ∫ I dt  

= 1 / C ∫ 14 t dt

1 / C x 14 t² / 2

= 7 t² / C

= 7 t² / 1 x 10⁻⁶

c ) Let after time t energy stored in capacitor becomes equal the energy stored in capacitance

energy stored in inductor

= 1/2 L I²

energy stored in capacitor

= 1/2 CV²

After time t

1/2 L I² = 1/2 CV²

L I² =  CV²

L x ( 14 t )² = C x  ( 7 t² / C )²

L x 196 t² = 49 t⁴ / C

t² = CL x 196 / 49

t = 74.8 μ s

After 74.8 μ s energy stored in capacitor exceeds that of inductor.

Question I. SUHU ULT
Lilit [14]

Answer:

Feathers are great thermal insulators.

Explanation:

Feathers are great thermal insulators. The loose structure of down feathers traps air.

As a result, energy cannot be transmitted easily through down feathers. This means birds are insulated from cold air outside, plus their body heat doesn't escape easily either.

Human beings discovered that down feathers are good for insulation long ago. For example, documents from the 1600s show that Russian merchants sold “bird down" to the Dutch hundreds of years ago.

Today, down is used in all sorts of products, including coats, bedding, and sleeping bags, to help better insulate the user from cold weather. Down can be collected from many different types of birds, but most of today's supply comes from domestic geese.

If you have a down coat or comforter, is it all down? In the United States, laws require that products labeled “100 percent down" contain only down feathers.

If your product is labeled “down," it can contain a mixture of both down feathers and synthetic fibers. Not all down feathers are created equal, though.

Down insulation is rated on a measure called “fill power." The higher the fill power, the more the down insulates.

The highest fill-power rating — 1200 — goes to eiderdown, which comes from the Common Eider duck. Eiderdown tends to be expensive.
