The dependent variable is the amount of time it takes for the water to boil. This variable is dependent because is depends on the amount of salt.

A particular inductor is connected to a circuit where it experiences a change in current of 0.8 amps every 0.10 sec. If the indu

Answer:

0.4

Explanation:

Given that a particular inductor is connected to a circuit where it experiences a change in current of 0.8 amps every 0.10 sec. If the inductor has a self-inductance of 2.0 V, what is the inductance

Using the power formula

P = IV

Substitute all the parameters

P = 0.8 × 2

P = 1.6 W

But P = I^2 R

Substitute power and current

1.6 = 0.8^2 R

R = 1.6 / 0.64

R = 2.5 ohms

Inductance = reciprocal of resistance

Inductance = 1 / 2.5

Inductance = 0.4

Before being engulfed, matter that is pulled into a black hole should become very hot and emit _____.

miss Akunina [59]

A black hole is a cosmological object that is created when a massive star comes to the end of its life and collapses under its own gravity. Black holes have massive gravitational fields that even light cannot escape beyond a certain distance. Before being engulfed, matter that is pulled into a black hole should become very hot and emit electromagnetic radiation.

A fan at a rock concert is 50.0 m from the stage, and at this point the sound intensity level is 114 dB. Sound is detected when

Marianna [84]

Answer:

A) $P=13.92\ J.s^{-1}$

B) $v=3730.9912\ m.s^{-1}$

C) $v=74.44\ mm.s^{-1}$

D) mosquitoes speed in part B is very much larger than that of part C.

Explanation:

Given:

Distance form the sound source, $s=50\ m$

sound intensity level at the given location, $\beta=114\ dB$

diameter of the eardrum membrane in humans, $d=8.4 \times 10^{-3}\ m$

We have the minimum detectable intensity to the human ears, $I_0=10^{-12}\ W.m^{-2}$

(A)

<u>Now the intensity of the sound at the given location is related mathematically as:</u>

$\beta=10\ log(\frac{I}{I_0} )$ ..........................................(1)

$114=10\ log\ (\frac{I}{10^{-12}} )$

$11.4=log\ I+12\ log\ 10$

$I=0.2512\ W.m^{-2}$

<em>As we know :</em>

$I=\frac{P}{A}$

$0.2512=\frac{P}{\pi\times \frac{8.4^2}{4} }$

$P=13.92\ J.s^{-1}$ is the energy transferred to the eardrums per second.

(B)

mass of mosquito, $m=2\times 10^{-6}\ kg$

<u>Now the velocity of mosquito for the same kinetic energy:</u>

$KE=\frac{1}{2} m.v^2$

$13.92=\frac{1}{2}\times 2\times 10^{-6}\times v^2$

$v=3730.9912\ m.s^{-1}$

(C)

Given:

Sound intensity, $\beta = 20\ dB$

<u>Using eq. (1)</u>

$20=10\ log\ (\frac{I}{10^{-12}} )$

$2=log\ I+12\ log\ 10$

$I=10^{-10}\ W.m^{-2}$

Now, power:

$P=I.A$

$P=10^{-10}\times \pi\times \frac{8.4^2}{4}$

$P=5.54\times 10^{-9}\ J.s^{-1}$

Hence:

$KE=\frac{1}{2} m.v^2$

$5.54\times 10^{-9}=0.5\times 2\times 10^{-6}\times v^2$

$v=0.07444\ m.s^{-1}$

$v=74.44\ mm.s^{-1}$

(D)

mosquitoes speed in part B is very much larger than that of part C.

Which wavelengths does nitrogen catch ?

Ann [662]

Answer:

The strongest lines are at 337.1 nm wavelength in the ultraviolet. Other lines have been reported at 357.6 nm, also ultraviolet. This information refers to the second positive system of molecular nitrogen, which is by far the most common.
