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.

This is the Doppler effect.

1. As the sound leaves the horn the sound waves are at first close to each other and as they move outwards they become further apart. The closer the sound waves are the louder the noise.

As the car gets the closer the sound waves get closer, so the horn becomes louder.

2. As the horn moves away, the sound waves become less frequent, causing the pitch to get lower.

Select a musical instrument. Research the instrument and explain how it works in terms of sound production and resonance. Descri

iren [92.7K]

1. I think a drum would be the easiest instrument to explain. You can vary the pitch and loudness by hitting it with different intensities or at different points or angles.

PS. I'm not talking about a drumset. I'm talking about an ordinary drum.

2. Different types of instruments sound different even though they play the same notes because they use different mechanisms for producing sound.

Static cling makes your clothes stick together. what causes this to happen? 1. external forces to the clothes 2. forces of natur

djyliett [7]

This phenomenon is as a result of static friction created by the tumbling clothes. Static friction results from the rubbing together of two or mores objects or body and electrons are stripped from one surface of the clothes more than the other. This creates an electrostatic force of attractions between the positive charges on one cloth and the negative charges on the other cloth.(unlike charges attract).

Planets are not uniform inside. Normally, they are densest at the center and have decreasing density outward toward the surface.

elena-s [515]

Answer:

$g=13.42\frac{m}{s^2}$

Explanation:

1) Notation and info given

$\rho_{center}=13000 \frac{kg}{m^3}$ represent the density at the center of the planet

$\rho_{surface}=2100 \frac{kg}{m^3}$ represent the densisty at the surface of the planet

r represent the radius

$r_{earth}=6.371x10^{6}m$ represent the radius of the Earth

2) Solution to the problem

So we can use a model to describe the density as function of the radius

$r=0, \rho(0)=\rho_{center}=13000 \frac{kg}{m^3}$

$r=6.371x10^{6}m, \rho(6.371x10^{6}m)=\rho_{surface}=2100 \frac{kg}{m^3}$

So we can create a linear model in the for y=b+mx, where the intercept b= $\rho_{center}=13000 \frac{kg}{m^3}$ and the slope would be given by $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center}}{r_{earth}-0}$

So then our linear model would be

$\rho (r)=\rho_{center}+\frac{\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center}}{r_{earth}}r$

Since the goal for the problem is find the gravitational acceleration we need to begin finding the total mass of the planet, and for this we can use a finite element and spherical coordinates. The volume for the differential element would be $dV=r^2 sin\theta d\phi d\theta dr$ .

And the total mass would be given by the following integral

$M=\int \rho (r) dV$

Replacing dV we have the following result:

$M=\int_{0}^{2\pi}d\phi \int_{0}^{\pi}sin\theta d\theta \int_{0}^{r_{earth}}(r^2 \rho_{center}+\frac{\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center}}{r_{earth}}r)$

We can solve the integrals one by one and the final result would be the following

$M=4\pi(\frac{r^3_{earth}\rho_{center}}{3}+\frac{r^4_{earth}}{4} \frac{\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center}}{r_{earth}})$

Simplyfind this last expression we have:

$M=\frac{4\pi\rho_{center}r^3_{earth}}{3}+\pi r^3_{earth}(\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center})$

$M=\pi r^3_{earth}(\frac{4}{3}\rho_{center}+\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center})$

$M=\pi r^3_{earth}[\rho_{surface}+\frac{1}{3}\rho_{center}]$

And replacing the values we got:

$M=\pi (6.371x10^{6}m)^2(\frac{1}{3}13000 \frac{kg}{m^3}+2100 \frac{kg}{m^3})=8.204x10^{24}kg$

And now that for any shape the gravitational acceleration is given by:

$g=\frac{MG}{r^2_{earth}}=\frac{(6.67408x10^{-11}\frac{m^3}{kgs^2})*8.204x10^{24}kg}{(6371000m)^2}=13.48\frac{m}{s^2}$
