A large container contains a large amount of water. A hole is drilled on the wall of the container, at a vertical distance h = 0

.54 m below the surface of the water. The water surface drops very slowly and its speed is approximately zero. Keep 2 decimal places in all answers. (a) Find the speed v (in m/s) at which water squirts out of the hole.

Speed can be found through the application of concepts related to potential energy and kinetic energy, for which you have

KE = PE

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh

Where,

m = mass

v = Velocity

g = Gravitational acceleration

h = Height

Re-arrange to find the velocity we have,

v^2 = 2gh

v = \sqrt{2gh}

v = \sqrt{2(9.8)(0.54)}

v = 3.253m/s

Therefore the speed at which water squirts out of the hole is .3253m/s

Which change will always result in an increase in the gravitational force between two objects? increasing the masses of the obje
abruzzese [7]

By definition, we have that the gravitational force is given by:

F = \frac{G * m1 * m2}{r ^ 2}

Where,

G: gravitational constant

m1: mass of object number 1

m2: mass of object number 2

r: distance between both objects.

Therefore, for the gravitational force to increase, the following conditions must be met:

1) Increase the mass of the objects so that the numerator of the equation is greater.

2) Decrease the distance between the objects so that the denominator of the equation is smaller.

Answer:

A change that will always result in an increase in the gravitational force between two objects is:

increasing the masses of the objects and decreasing the distance between the objects

A wire carrying a current is shaped in the form of a circular loop of radius 3.0mm If the magnetic field strength that this curr
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

Current, I = 5.3 A

Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of circular loop, r = 3 mm = 0.003 m

Magnetic field strength, B = 1.1 mT = 0.0011 T

We need to find the magnitude of the current that flows through the wire. The magnetic field for a current carrying wire is given by :

B=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2r}

I=\dfrac{2Br}{\mu_o}

I=\dfrac{2\times 0.0011\ T\times 0.003\ m}{4\pi\times 10^{-7}}

I = 5.25 A

or

I = 5.3 A

So, the magnitude of the current that flows through the wire is 5.3 A. Hence, this is the required solution.

What do the symbols mean???
Elena L [17]

1. Fixed resistor ; A resistor is used to reduce the flow of electricity in an electric circuit. Resistors come in fixed or variable types. A fixed resistor cannot be changed as it is set at a specific value, whereas a variable resistor can manage flows at and below a specific level.

2. Variable Resistor ;

An electronic component that is used to vary the amount of current that flows through a circuit. It works by sliding a wiper terminal across a resistive material, typically a thin film or chunk of carbon or a resistive wire made of nickel chromium or tungsten alloys.

3. Thermistor ;

Converts heat to electrical resistance.

4. Light dependant resistor ;

Converts light to electrical resistance.

I). Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy in an object that is used to do work.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

false statement : b )  For the motion of a cart on an incline plane having a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.5, the magnitude of the change in kinetic energy equals the magnitude of the change in gravitational potential energy

Explanation:

mechanical energy = potential energy + kinetic energy = constant

differentiating both side

Δ potential energy + Δ kinetic energy = 0

Δ potential energy = -  Δ kinetic energy

first statement is true.

Friction is a non conservative force so inter-conversion of potential and kinetic energy is not possible in that case. In case of second  option,  the correct relation is as follows

change in gravitational potential energy = change in kinetic energy + work done against friction .

So given 2 nd  option is incorrect.

In case of no change in gravitational energy , work done is equal to

change in kinetic energy.
