A large spool in an electrician's workshop has 55 m of insulation coated wire coiled around it. when the electrician connects a

battery to the ends of the spooled wire, the resulting current is 1.0
a. some weeks later, after cutting off various lengths of wire for use in repairs, the electrician finds that the spooled wire carries a 2.6-a current when the same battery is connected to it. what is the length of wire remaining on the spool? m

Answer:

21.2 m

Explanation:

The current in the wire is given by Ohm's law:

I=\frac{V}{R}

where V is the voltage of the battery and R is the resistance of the wire.

The resistance of the wire is directly proportional to the length of the wire, so we can write:

R=kL

where k is a constant and L is the length of the wire. Substituting into the first equation,

I=\frac{V}{kL}

We can rewrite this equation also as

\frac{V}{k}=IL

where the term on the left is a constant (because the voltage of the battery does not change). So, we can write:

I_1 L_1 = I_2 L_2

where:

I_1 = 1.0 A is the current in the first situation

L_1 = 55 m is the length of the wire in the first situation

I_2 = 2.6 A is the current in the second situation

L_2=? is the length of the wire in the second situation

Re-arranging the formula, we can find the value of L2:

L_2 = \frac{I_1 L_1}{I_2}=\frac{(1.0 A)(55 m)}{2.6 m}=21.2m

A(n) ________ microscope keeps an object in focus when the objective lens is changed.
Anvisha [2.4K]

Parfocal is the term used to describe a microscope that maintains focus when the objective lenses are replaced.

<h3>What is the name of the objective lens ?</h3>

For observing minute features within a specimen sample, a high-powered objective lens, often known as a "high dry" lens, is perfect. You can see a very detailed image of the specimen on your slide thanks to the 400x total magnification that a high-power objective lens and a 10x eyepiece provide.

The four objective lenses on your microscope are for scanning (4x), low (10x), high (40x), and oil immersion (100x).

The first-stage lens used to create a picture from electrons leaving the specimen is referred to as the "objective lens." The objective lens is the most crucial component of the imaging system since the quality of the images is determined by how well it performs (resolution, contrast, etc.,).

A green block of mass m slides to the right on a frictionless floor and collides elastically with a red block of mass M which is
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

M is equal to m

Explanation:

In case we say that the green block's mass m is less than red block's mass M, then the green block would have bounced and moved back to the left instead of coming to rest. The other case where if mass of green block's mass m would have been greater than the red block's mass M, the green block would have kept moving to the right instead of coming to rest. After collision, the red block moves to the right because of exchange of velocities. Therefore, m=M since m comes to rest and M moves to the right

In any collision, as it is asumed that no external forces can act during the collision, momentum must be conserved.

So, if we call p₁ to the momentum before collision, and p₂ to momentum after it, taking into account the information above, we can write the following:

p₁ = mv₁ + M.0 = p₂ = m.0 + Mv₂ ⇒ mv₁ = Mv₂

From the question, we also know that it was an elastic collision.

In elastic collision, added to the momentum conservation, it must be conserved the kinetic energy also.

So, if we call k₁ to the kinetic energy prior the collision, and k₂ to the one after it, we can write the following:

k₁ = 1/2 m(v₁)² + 1/2 M.0 = k₂ = 1/2m.0 + 1/2M(v₂)² ⇒ m(v₁)² = M(v₂)²

Mathematically, the only way in which both equations be true, should be with v₁ = v₂,  which is only possible if m=M too.

In this type of collision, it is said that the energy transfers from one mass to the other.

The force that attracts earth to an object is equal to and opposite the force that earth exerts on the object. Explain why earth
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Because of heavy mass

Explanation:

When force acts on a body it tends to accelerate the body. The acceleration produced in the body depends on two things:

1). Magnitude of force

2). Mass of the body

F= ma

⇒ a = F/m  

As the force exerted on earth and another object are the equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. This forces will accelerate the object toward the earth but can't accelerate the earth as earth has very high mass.

a = F/m

This force tends to accelerate the earth but but due to earth's inertia the earth does not accelerate.
