Answer:

The horse power is 0.1340 hp.

Explanation:

Given that,

Horse power = 745 watts

One horsepower is about 745 watts.

Since the bulb consume 100 watt of power

We need to calculate the horse power

P_{hp}=\dfrac{P_{w}}{745}

P_{hp}=\dfrac{100}{745}

P_{hp}=0.1342\ hp

Hence, The horse power is 0.1342 hp.

The speed of sound in room temperature (20°C) air is 343 m/s; in room temperature helium, it is 1010 m/s. The fundamental freque
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: f = 927.55Hz

Explanation: Since the the tube is open-closed, the length of air and the wavelength of sound passing through the tube is given below

L = λ/4 where λ = wavelength.

speed of sound in air = v = 343m/s.

fundamental frequency of open closed tube = 315Hz

λ = 4L.

v = fλ

343 = 315 * 4L

343 = 1260 * L

L = 343/ 1260

L = 0.27m

In the same tube of length L = 0.27m but different medium ( helium), the speed of sound is 1010m/s.

The length of tube and wavelength are related by the formulae below

L = λ/4, λ=4L

λ = 4 * 0.27

λ = 1.087m.

v = fλ

1010 = f * 1.087

f = 1010/1.807

f = 927.55Hz

What will be the force if the particle's charge is tripled and the electric field strength is halved? Give your answer in terms
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

1.5F

Explanation:

Using

E= F/q

Where F= force

E= electric field

q=charge

F= Eq

So if qis tripled and E is halved we have

F= (E/2)3q

F= 1.5Eq=>> 1.5F

A piece of wire 29 m long is cut into two pieces. One piece is bent into a square and the other is bent into an equilateral tria
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Total length of the wire is 29 m.

Let the length of one piece is d and of another piece is 29 - d.

Let d is used to make a square.

And 29 - d is used to make an equilateral triangle.

(a)

Area of square = d²

Area of equilateral triangle = √3(29 - d)²/4

Total area,

A = d^{2}+\frac{\sqrt3}{4}\left ( 29-d \right )^{2}

Differentiate both sides with respect to d.

\frac{dA}{dt}=2d- \frac{\sqrt3}{4}\times 2(29-d)

For maxima and minima, dA/dt = 0

d = 8.76 m

Differentiate again we get the

\frac{d^{2}A}{dt^{2}}= + ve

(a) So, the area is maximum when the side of square is 29 m

(b) so, the area is minimum when the side of square is 8.76 m
