We model the cell's internal resistance as an additional resistor in the circuit. We will use V = IR to calculate the voltage drops over each resistor for both circuits.

Circuit 1: 0.9A current, internal resistance r, resistor 2Ω

V = 0.9r + 0.9(2) = 0.9r + 1.8

Circuit 2: 0.3A current, internal resistance r, resistor 7Ω

V = 0.3r + 0.3(7) = 0.3r + 2.1

Since V should be the same for both circuits, set the total voltage drops equal to each other and solve for r:

0.9r +1.8 = 0.3r + 2.1

0.6r = 0.3

r = 0.5Ω

A 1220-w hair dryer is used by several members of the family for a total of 30 min per day during a 30 day month. How much elecr
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Energy = 18.3 Kilowatt-hour

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Power = 1220 Watts

Time = 30 * 30 = 900 minutes to hours = 900/60 = 15 hours

To find the energy consumption;

Power can be defined as the energy required to do work per unit time.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Power = \frac {Energy}{time}

Making energy the subject of formula, we have;

Energy = power * time

Energy = 1220 * 15

Energy = 18300 Joules

To convert energy to Kilowatt-hour;

Energy = 18300/1000

Energy = 18.3 Kilowatt-hour

A 320-g ball and a 400-g ball are attached to the two ends of a string that goes over a pulley with a radius of 8.7 cm. Because
Gnom [1K]

To solve this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to force described in Newton's second law, so that

F = ma

Where,

m = mass

a = Acceleration (Gravitational acceleration when there is action over the object of the earth)

Torque, as we know, is the force applied at a certain distance, that is,

\tau = F*d

Where

F= Force

d = Distance

Our values are given as,

m_1 = 0.32Kg

m_2 = 0.4Kg

d = 8.7*10^{-2}m

Since the system is in equilibrium the difference of the torques is the result of the total Torque applied, that is to say

\tau = T_2-T_1

\tau = F_2*d-F_1*d

\tau = m_2g*d-m_1*g*d

\tau = (m_2-m_1)g*d

\tau = (0.4-0.32)(9.8)(8.7*10^{-2})

\tau = 0.068N\cdot m

Therefore the magnitude of the frictional torque at the axle of the pulley if the system remains at rest when the balls are released is \tau = 0.068N\cdot m

Longer the air column is the more harmonics are created. due to the longer column the waves have more space to bounce off of the sides of the column to create more harmonics.
