Explanation:

It is given that,

The period of the carrier wave, T = 0.01 s

Let f and $\lambda$ are frequency and the wavelength of the wave respectively. The relationship between the time period and the frequency is given by :

$f=\dfrac{1}{T}$

$f=\dfrac{1}{0.01}$

f = 100 Hz

The wavelength of a wave is given by :

$\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{100}$

$\lambda=3\times 10^6\ m$

So, the frequency and wavelength of the carrier wave are 100 Hz and $3\times 10^6\ m$ respectively. Hence, the correct option is (c).

What do nuclear fission and nuclear fusion have in common?

adoni [48]

Answer:

Both fission and fusion are nuclear reactions that produce energy, but the applications are not the same. Fission is the splitting of a heavy, unstable nucleus into two lighter nuclei, and fusion is the process where two light nuclei combine together releasing vast amounts of energy

Explain what it means when scientists say that the offspring of sexual reproduction are genetically diverse.

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer: During sexual reproduction, the genetic material of two individuals is combined to produce genetically-diverse offspring that differ from their parents. The genetic diversity of sexually-produced offspring is thought to give species a better chance of surviving in an unpredictable or changing environment

8. An unpowered flywheel is slowed by a constant frictional torque. At time t = 0 it has an angular velocity of 200 rad/s. Ten s

allsm [11]

Answer:

a) $\omega = 50\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , b) $\omega = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$

Explanation:

The magnitude of torque is a form of moment, that is, a product of force and lever arm (distance), and force is the product of mass and acceleration for rotating systems with constant mass. That is:

$\tau = F \cdot r$

$\tau = m\cdot a \cdot r$

$\tau = m \cdot \alpha \cdot r^{2}$

Where $\alpha$ is the angular acceleration, which is constant as torque is constant. Angular deceleration experimented by the unpowered flywheel is:

$\alpha = \frac{170\,\frac{rad}{s} - 200\,\frac{rad}{s} }{10\,s}$

$\alpha = -3\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$

Now, angular velocities of the unpowered flywheel at 50 seconds and 100 seconds are, respectively:

a) t = 50 s.

$\omega = 200\,\frac{rad}{s} - \left(3\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (50\,s)$

$\omega = 50\,\frac{rad}{s}$

b) t = 100 s.

Given that friction is of reactive nature. Frictional torque works on the unpowered flywheel until angular velocity is reduced to zero, whose instant is:

$t = \frac{0\,\frac{rad}{s}-200\,\frac{rad}{s} }{\left(-3\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right)}$

$t = 66.667\,s$

Since $t > 66.667\,s$ , then the angular velocity is equal to zero. Therefore:

$\omega = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$

A voltage V is applied to the primary coil of a step-up transformer with a 3:1 ratio of turns between its primary and secondary

Snezhnost [94]

Explanation:

Let $N_p\ and\ N_s$ are the number of turns in primary and secondary coil of the transformer such that,

$\dfrac{N_p}{N_s}=\dfrac{1}{3}$

A resistor R connected to the secondary dissipates a power $P_s=100\ W$

For a transformer, $\dfrac{N_s}{N_p}=\dfrac{V_s}{V_p}$

$V_s=(\dfrac{N_s}{N_p})V_p$

$V_s=3V_p$ ...............(1)

The power dissipated through the secondary coil is :

$P_s=\dfrac{V_s^2}{R}$

$100\ W=\dfrac{V_s^2}{R}$

$V_p^2=\dfrac{100R}{9}$ .............(2)

Let $N_p'\ and\ N_s'$ are the new number of turns in primary and secondary coil of the transformer such that,

$\dfrac{N_p'}{N_s'}=\dfrac{1}{24}$

New voltage is :

$V_s'=(\dfrac{N_s'}{N_p'})V_p'$

$V_s'=24V_p$ ...............(3)

So, new power dissipated is $P_s'$

$P_s'=\dfrac{V_s'^2}{R}$

$P_s'=\dfrac{(24V_p)^2}{R}$

$P_s'=24^2\times \dfrac{(V_p)^2}{R}$

$P_s'=24^2\times \dfrac{(\dfrac{100R}{9})}{R}$

$P_s'=6400\ Watts$

So, the new power dissipated by the same resistor is 6400 watts. Hence, this is the required solution.
