Answer: 0.42 Amperes

Explanation:

Given that:

Current, I = ?

Electric charge Q = 100 coulomb

Time, T = 4.0 minutes

(The SI unit of time is seconds. so, convert 4.0 minutes to seconds)

If 1 minute = 60 seconds

4.0 minutes = 4.0 x 60 = 240 seconds

Since electric charge, Q = current x time

i.e Q = I x T

100 coulomb = I x 240 seconds

I = 100 coulomb / 240 seconds

I = 0.4167 Amperes (round to the nearest hundredth which is 0.42 amperes)

Thus, 0.42 Amperes of current flows in the circuit.

A coin completes 18 spins in 12 seconds. The centripetal acceleration of the edge of the coin is 2.2 m/s2. The radius of the coi

stellarik [79]

Answer:

2.5 cm

Explanation:

Number of spins in 12 seconds = 18

Number of spins in 1 second = 18 / 12 = 1.5

Number of spins in one second is called frequency.

f = 1.5 rps

ac = 2.2 m/s^2

Let r be the radius of coin

Centripetal acceleration, ac = r x w^2

2.2 = r x ( 2 x 3.14 x 1.5) ^2

2.2 = r x 88.7364

r = 0.025 m = 2.5 cm

A radioactive particle has a half life of 1 second. If it moves at 3/5 the speed of light, from my point of view standing still

AVprozaik [17]

The half-life observed by an observer at rest is 1.25 s

Explanation:

In this problem, the particle is travelling at a significant fraction of the speed of light: therefore, we have to consider the phenomenon of the time dilation. The half-life of the particle as measured by an observer at rest is given by

$T=\frac{T_0}{\sqrt{1-(\frac{v}{c})^2}}$

where

$T_0$ is the proper half-life of the particle

v is the speed of the particle

c is the speed of light

For the particle in this problem,

$T_0 = 1 s$

$v=\frac{3}{5}c=0.6 c$

Substituting into the equation, we find:

$T=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-(\frac{0.6c}{c})^2}}=1.25 s$

How is a flywheel constructed to maximize its rotational inertia?

BigorU [14]

Answer:

It is constructed with a high mass and a high raidus.

Explanation:

The rotational inertia I for every object is calculated as:

cMR^2 = I

where c is a constant, M is the mass of the object and R the radius of the object.

So, for a flywheel, the rotational inertia is calculated as:

I = $\frac{1}{2}MR^2$

Then, for constructed a flywheel with the maximun rotational inertia we have to set the maximum mass and the maximun radius.
