A fuse in an electric circuit is a wire that is designed to melt, and thereby open the circuit, if the current exceeds a predete

rmined value. Suppose that the material to be used in a fuse melts when the current density rises to 500 A/cm2. What diameter of cylindrical wire should be used to make a fuse that will limit the current to 0.64 A?

Answer:

The diameter of wire should be 4.04 \times 10^{-4} m

Explanation:

Given:

Current density J = 500 \times 10^{4} \frac{A}{m^{2} }

Current I = 0.64 A

From the formula of current density,

  J = \frac{I}{A}

Where A = area of cylindrical wire = \pi r^{2}

  \pi r^{2} = \frac{I}{J}

  r^{2} = \frac{I}{\pi J }

   r = \sqrt{\frac{0.64}{3.14 \times 500 \times 10^{4} } }

   r = 2.02 \times 10^{-4}m

For finding the diameter of wire,

   d = 2r

   d = 4.04 \times 10^{-4}m

Therefore, the diameter of wire should be 4.04 \times 10^{-4} m

enot [183]

Answer:

Final velocity at the bottom of hill is 15.56 m/s.

Explanation:

The given problem can be divided into four parts:

1. Use conservation of momentum to determine the speed of the combined mass (Gayle and sled)

From the law of conservation of momentum (perfectly inelastic collision), the combined velocity is given as:  

p_i = p_f  

m_1u_1 + m_2v_2 = (m_1 + m_2)v

v = \frac{(m_1u_1 + m_2v_2)}{(m_1 + m_2)}

v=\frac{[50.0\ kg)(3.85\ m/s) + 0]}{(50.0\ kg + 5.00\ kg)}= 3.5\ m/s  

2. Use conservation of energy to determine the speed after traveling a vertical height of 5 m.

The velocity of Gayle and sled at the instant her brother jumps on is found from the law of conservation of energy:  

E(i) = E(f)  

KE(i) + PE(i) = KE(f) + PE(f)  

0.5mv^2(i) + mgh(i) = 0.5mv^2(f) + mgh(f)  

v(f) = \sqrt{[v^2(i) + 2g(h(i) - h(f))]}

Here, initial velocity is the final velocity from the first stage. Therefore:  

v(f) = \sqrt{[(3.5)^2+2(9.8)(5.00-0)]}= 10.5\ m/s

3. Use conservation of momentum to find the combined speed of Gayle and her brother.  

Given:

Initial velocity of Gayle and sled is, u_1(i)=10.5 m/s

Initial velocity of her brother is, u_2(i)=0 m/s

Mass of Gayle and sled is, m_1=55.0 kg

Mass of her brother is, m_2=30.0 kg

Final combined velocity is given as:

v(f) = \frac{[m_1u_1(i) + m_2u_2(i)]}{(m_1 + m_2)}  

v(f)=\frac{[(55.0)(10.5) + 0]}{(55.0+30.0)}= 6.79 m/s  

4. Finally, use conservation of energy to determine the final speed at the bottom of the hill.

Using conservation of energy, the final velocity at the bottom of the hill is:  

E(i) = E(f)  

KE(i) + PE(i) = KE(f) + PE(f)  

0.5mv^2(i) + mgh(i) = 0.5mv^2(f) + mgh(f)  

v(f) = \sqrt{[v^2(i) + 2g(h(i) - h(f))]} \\v(f)=\sqrt{[(6.79)^2 + 2(9.8)(15 - 5.00)]}\\v(f)= 15.56\ m/s

what was the mass of a cannkn ball whose velocity is 200m/s if it were shot from 1000kg that recoils a 2m/s. Solve step by step​
Whitepunk [10]

The famous Newton’s Third Law states that “For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The statement means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects. The size of the forces on the first object equals the size of the force on the second object.”

By using this,

10grams or 0.01kg of bullet with speed 400 m/sec and 5kg gun recoil with speed suppose ‘v’.

0.01×400=5×v

4/5=v

v=0.8m/sec ANSWER.
