If 120 V are applied to 100 ohms of resistance, what current will flow?

1 answer:

7 0

If the resistance is ohmic (follows Ohm's law of V=IR), then current should be
I = V/R, where I is current, V is voltage, and R is resistance.

Current in this case will be
I = (120V)/(100Ω)
I = 1.2A

Two charged particles separated by a distance of = 3 and experienced electrostatic forces of = 60 . What would be this force if

klemol [59]

Answer: 539.4 N

Explanation:

Let's begin by explaining that Coulomb's Law establishes the following:

"The electrostatic force $F_{E}$ between two point charges $q_{1}$ and $q_{2}$ is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance $d$ that separates them, and has the direction of the line that joins them"

What is written above is expressed mathematically as follows:

$F_{E}= K\frac{q_{1}.q_{2}}{d^{2}}$ (1)

Where:

$F_{E}=60 N$ is the electrostatic force

$K=8.99(10)^{9} Nm^{2}/C^{2}$ is the Coulomb's constant

$q_{1}$ and $q_{2}$ are the electric charges

$d=3 m$ is the separation distance between the charges

Then:

$60 N= 8.99(10)^{9} Nm^{2}/C^{2}\frac{q_{1}.q_{2}}{(3 m)^{2}}$ (2)

Isolating $q_{1}$ and $q_{2}$ :

$q_{1}q_{2}=6(10)^{-8} C^{2}$ (3)

Now, if we keep the same charges but we decrease the distance to $d_{1}=1 m$ , (1) is rewritten as:

$F_{E}=8.99(10)^{9} Nm^{2}/C^{2}\frac{6(10)^{-8} C^{2}}{(1 m)^{2}}$ (4)

Then, the new electrostatic force will be:

$F_{E}= 539.4 N$ (5) As we can see, the electrostatic force is increased when we decrease the distance between the charges.

The correct frequency when you tune a guitar is when you hear the right tune in your own hearing and standard. The measure frequency of a guitar string is when you measure the tune of the string correctly. This is not the same because manual tuning is affected by many factors.

Now let’s apply the work–energy theorem to a more complex, multistep problem. In a pile driver, a steel hammerhead with mass 200

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

a) v = 7.67

b) n = 81562 N

Explanation:

Given:-

- The mass of hammer-head, m = 200 kg

- The height at from which hammer head drops, s12 = 3.00 m

- The amount of distance the I-beam is hammered, s23 = 7.40 cm

- The resistive force by contact of hammer-head and I-beam, F = 60.0 N

Find:-

(a) the speed of the hammerhead just as it hits the I-beam and

(b) the average force the hammerhead exerts on the I-beam.

Solution:-

- We will consider the hammer head as our system and apply the conservation of energy principle because during the journey of hammer-head up till just before it hits the I-beam there are no external forces acting on the system:

ΔK.E = ΔP.E

K_2 - K_1 = P_1- P_2

Where, K_2: Kinetic energy of hammer head as it hits the I-beam

K_1: Initial kinetic energy of hammer head ( = 0 ) ... rest

P_2: Gravitational potential energy of hammer head as it hits the I-beam. (Datum = 0)

P_1: Initial gravitational potential energy of hammer head

- The expression simplifies to:

K_2 = P_1

Where, 0.5*m*v2^2 = m*g*s12

v2 = √(2*g*s12) = √(2*9.81*3)

v2 = 7.67 m/s

- For the complete journey we see that there are fictitious force due to contact between hammer-head and I-beam the system is no longer conserved. All the kinetic energy is used to drive the I-beam down by distance s23. We will apply work energy principle on the system:

Wnet = ( P_3 - P_1 ) + W_friction

Wnet = m*g*s13 + F*s23

n*s23 = m*g*s13 + F*s23

Where, n: average force the hammerhead exerts on the I-beam.

s13 = s12 + s23

Hence,

n = m*g*( s12/s23 + 1) + F

n = 200*9.81*(3/0.074 + 1) + 60

n = 81562 N
