Answer:
The two metals expand differently.
Explanation:
The bimetallic strip has two metal strips positioned like a bridge, these strips connect the electrical circuit to the heating system. When these strips are linear or "down" they allow the electricity to move through the circuit to the heating system to turn the heat on. When the strips are "up" the disconnect the electricity flow, thus turning the heating system off, thus the room becomes cool/cold.
Answer:
1 x 10 -10 whisper at 1m distance.
Explanation:
- Properly fitted ear plugs an reduce noise form 15-30db. Although they are better for low frequency
Answer:
3secs
Explanation:
Given the following parameters
height H= 81.3m
Velocity v = 12.4m/s
Required
Time it take to reach the ground
Using the equation of motion
H = ut+1/2gt²
81.3 = 12.4t + 1/2(9.8)t²
81.3 = 12.4t + 4.9t²
4.9t² + 12.4t - 81.3 = 0
Using the general formula to find t
t = -12.4±√12.4²-4(4.9)(-81.3)/2(4.9)
t = -12.4±√153.76+1593.48/2(4.9)
t = -12.4±√1747.24/9.8
t = -12.4+41.8/9.8
t = 29.4/9.8
t = 3secs
Hence it took 3secs to reach the ground
Answer: 996m/s
Explanation:
Formula for calculating velocity of wave in a stretched string is
V = √T/M where;
V is the velocity of wave
T is tension
M is the mass per unit length of the wire(m/L)
Since the second wire is twice as far apart as the first, it will be L2 = 2L1
Let V1 and V2 be the speed of the shorter and longer wire respectively
V1 = √T/M1... 1
V2 = √T/M2... 2
Since V1 = 249m/s, M1 = m/L1 M2 = m/L2 = m/2L1
The equations will now become
249 = √T/(m/L1) ... 3
V2 = √T/(m/2L1)... 4
From 3,
249² = TL1/m...5
From 4,
V2²= 2TL1/m... 6
Dividing equation 5 by 6 we have;
249²/V2² = TL1/m×m/2TL1
{249/V2}² = 1/2
249/V2 = (1/2)²
249/V2 = 1/4
V2 = 249×4
V2 = 996m/s
Therefore the speed of the wave on the longer wire is 996m/s
