To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to Ohm's law for which voltage, intensity and resistance are related.

Mathematically this relationship is given as

$V = IR \rightarrow R= \frac{V}{I}$

Where,

V= Voltage

I = Current

R = Resistance

The value of the given voltage is 12V, while the current is 12mA, therefore the resistance would be

$R = \frac{12}{12*10^{-3}}$

$R = 1000 \Omega$

Therefore the resistance is $1000\Omega$

During a testing process, a worker in a factory mounts a bicycle wheel on a stationary stand and applies a tangential resistive

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

The force is $F = 1041.7N$

Explanation:

The moment of Inertia I is mathematically evaluated as

$I = MR_A^2$

Substituting $1.9kg$ for M(Mass of the wheel) and $\frac{66cm}{2} * \frac{1m}{100cm} = 0.33m$ for $R_A$ (Radius of wheel)

$I = 1.9 * 0.33^2$

$= 0.207kgm^2$

The torque on the wheel due to net force is mathematically represented as

$\tau = FR_B - F_rR_A$

Substituting 135 N for $F_r$ (Force acting on sprocket), $\frac{8.7cm}{2} * \frac{1m}{100cm} = 0.0435m$ for $R_B$ (radius of the chain) and F is the force acting on the sprocket due to the chain which is unknown for now

$\tau = F (0.0435) - 135 (0.33)$

This same torque due to the net force is the also the torque that is required to rotate the wheel to have an angular acceleration of $\alpha = 3.70 rad/s^2$ and this torque can also be represented mathematically as

$\tau = \alpha I$

Now equating the two equation for torque

$F (0.0435) - 135 (0.33) = \alpha I$

Making F the subject

$F = \frac{\alpha I + (135*0.33) }{0.0435}$

Substituting values

$F = \frac{(3.70 * 0.207) + (135*0.33)}{0.0435}$

$= 1041.7N$

A satellite orbits earth with a mean altitude of 361 km. If the orbit is circular, what are the satellite's time period and spee

Advocard [28]

Answer:

v = 7.69 x 10³ m/s = 7690 m/s

T = 5500 s = 91.67 min = 1.53 h

Explanation:

In order for the satellite to orbit the earth, the force of gravitation on satellite must be equal to the centripetal force acting on it:

$F_{gravitation}= F_{centripetal}\\\\\frac{GM_{s} M_{E}}{r^2} = \frac{M_{s} v^2}{r}\\\\\frac{GM_{E}}{r} = v^2\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{E}}{r} } \\\\$

where,

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

Me = Mass of Earth = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg

r = distance between the center of Earth and Satellite = Radius of Earth + Altitude = 6.371 x 10⁶ m + 0.361 x 10⁶ m = 6.732 x 10⁶ m

v = orbital speed = ?

Therefore,

$v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67 x 10^{-11}N.m^2/kg^2)(5.97 x 10^{24} kg)}{6.732 x 10^6 m} }\\\\$

<u>v = 7.69 x 10³ m/s</u>

For time period satellite completes one revolution around the earth. It means that the distance covered by satellite is equal to circumference of circle at the given altitude.

So, its orbital speed can be given as:

$v = \frac{Circumference of Circle at Given Altitude}{T}\\\\v = \frac{2\pi r}{T}\\\\$

where,

T = Time Period of Satellite = ?

Therefore,

$T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}\\\\T = \frac{(2\pi )(6.732 x 10^6 m}{7.69 x 10^3 m/s}\\\\$

<u>T = 5500 s = 91.67 min = 1.53 h</u>

If the magnitude of a charge is half as much as another charge, but the force experienced is the same, then the electric field s

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

the electric field strength of this charge is two times the strength of the other charge

Explanation:

Using the relationship between electric field and the charge, which is inversely proportionality. Let the the magnitude of the first charge be Q and the respective electric field be E. It implies that;

E1/E2 = Q2/Q1

E2 = E1 x Q1/Q2

= E x Q/ (Q/2)

= 2E
