The vertical displacement of an ocean wave is described by the function, y = A sin(ωt - kx). k is called the wave number (k = 2π

/λ) and has a value of k = 18 rad/m. The remaining values are A = 9.5 m and ω = 14.5 rad/s.
a) Using y = A sin(B), input an expression for B where the wave would be traveling in the -x-direction. sig.gif?tid=7M79-31-9F-4E-8624-20536

b) What is the wave's velocity in m/s?

c) What is the wave's amplitude in m?

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) y = A sin(B) ; here B is the phase of the wave which moves so that it remains constant

ωt - kx = constant

differentiating on both sides

ωdt - kdx =0

ωdt = kdx

dx / dt = ω / k

wave velocity = ω / k

b ) ω = 14.5 rad / s ,

k = 18 rad / m

wave velocity = ω / k

= 14.5 / 18

= .805 m /s

80.5 cm / s

c )

Amplitude = A

= 9.5 m

An electric pump has 2kW power . How much water will it lift every minute if the height is 10 m ?

valkas [14]

Answer:

Given that,

Power = 2000 W
time = 60 seconds
distance= 10m

Power = work done ÷ time

Here, since the movement is vertical, w = mgh

So,

Power = mgh÷t

2000 = (m × 9.8 ×10) ÷ 60

m = (2000 ×60) ÷98

m = 1224.5kg

At the moment t = 0, a 20.0 V battery is connected to a 5.00 mH coil and a 6.00 Ω resistor. (a) Immediately thereafter, how does

insens350 [35]

(a) On the coil: 20 V, on the resistor: 0 V

The sum of the potential difference across the coil and the potential difference across the resistor is equal to the voltage provided by the battery, V = 20 V:

$V = V_R + V_L$

The potential difference across the inductance is given by

$V_L(t) = V e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}}$ (1)

where

$\tau = \frac{L}{R}=\frac{0.005 H}{6.00 \Omega}=8.33\cdot 10^{-4} s$ is the time constant of the circuit

At time t=0,

$V_L(0) = V e^0 = V = 20 V$

So, all the potential difference is across the coil, therefore the potential difference across the resistor will be zero:

$V_R = V-V_L = 20 V-20 V=0$

(b) On the coil: 0 V, on the resistor: 20 V

Here we are analyzing the situation several seconds later, which means that we are analyzing the situation for

$t >> \tau$

Since $\tau$ is at the order of less than milliseconds.

Using eq.(1), we see that for $t >> \tau$ , the exponential becomes zero, and therefore the potential difference across the coil is zero:

$V_L = 0$

Therefore, the potential difference across the resistor will be

$V_R = V-V_L = 20 V- 0 = 20 V$

(c) Yes

The two voltages will be equal when:

$V_L = V_R$ (2)

Reminding also that the sum of the two voltages must be equal to the voltage of the battery:

$V=V_L +V_R$

And rewriting this equation,

$V_R = V-V_L$

Substituting into (2) we find

$V_L = V-V_L\\2V_L = V\\V_L=\frac{V}{2}=10 V$

So, the two voltages will be equal when they are both equal to 10 V.

(d) at $t=5.77\cdot 10^{-4}s$

We said that the two voltages will be equal when

$V_L=\frac{V}{2}$

Using eq.(1), and this last equation, this means

$V e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}} = \frac{V}{2}$

And solving the equation for t, we find the time t at which the two voltages are equal:

$e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}}=\frac{1}{2}\\-\frac{t}{\tau}=ln(1/2)\\t=-\tau ln(0.5)=-(8.33\cdot 10^{-4} s)ln(0.5)=5.77\cdot 10^{-4}s$

(e-a) -19.2 V on the coil, 19.2 V on the resistor

Here we have that the current in the circuit is

$I_0 = 3.20 A$

The problem says this current is stable: this means that we are in a situation in which $t>>\tau$ , so the coil has no longer influence on the circuit, which is operating as it is a normal circuit with only one resistor. Therefore, we can find the potential difference across the resistor using Ohm's law

$V=I_0 R = (3.20 A)(6.0 \Omega)=19.2 V$

Then the battery is removed from the circuit: this means that the coil will discharge through the resistor.

The voltage on the coil is given by

$V_L(t) = -V e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}}$ (1)

which means that it is maximum at the moment when the battery is disconnected, when t=0:

$V_L(0)=.V$

And V this time is the voltage across the resistor, 19.2 V (because the coil is now connected to the resistor, not to the battery). So, the voltage across the coil will be -19.2 V, and the voltage across the resistor will be the same in magnitude, 19.2 V (since the coil and the resistor are connected to the same points in the circuit): however, the signs of the potential difference will be opposite.

(e-b) 0 V on both

After several seconds,

$t>>\tau$

If we use this approximation into the formula

$V_L(t) = -V e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}}$ (1)

We find that

$V_L = 0$

And since now the resistor is directly connected to the coil, the voltage in the resistor will be the same as the coil, so 0 V. This means that the coil has completely discharged, and current is no longer flowing through the circuit.

Technician A says that the intake and exhaust manifolds have to be removed before removing the engine from the vehicle. Technici

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer: Technician A is correct

Explanation:

The intake manifold is the compactment that all fuel and air supply to the cylinders. It's connected to the engine so it has to be disconnected while the exhaust manifold receives all the exhaust gases from the cylinders and releases the gas through a single or double exhaust gases outlet.
