When you're asked to calculate moments and torque, what's the main difference in calculation? Also what is a couple?

Answer:

a) Explanation below. b) Explanation below

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the product of a force by a radius, while momentum is defined as the product of force by a distance. Mathematically we would have

T = F * r

M = F * d

where:

T = torque = [N*m]

M = moment = [N*m]

F = force =[N]

d = distance [m]

r = radius [m]

Although they have the same units, the difference between them is the application. For the case of torque this is always applied in parts that are in rotation, such as the shafts of cars, the shafts of pumps, torque in gears and etc. While the moment can be applied to a body without the need for it to rotate.

A couple, is as its name suggests a couple of forces of equal magnitude but opposite sense and do not share a line of action. A body under the action of a couple of forces tends to rotate the body without moving it from one point to another.

The unit of energy is a derived unit​
Tems11 [23]

Explanation:

<em>Hi</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>there</em><em>!</em><em>!</em>

<em>Energy</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>defined</em><em> </em><em>as</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>capacity</em><em> </em><em>or</em><em> </em><em>ability</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>do</em><em> </em><em>work</em><em>.</em><em> </em><em>It's</em><em> </em><em>SI</em><em> </em><em>unit</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>Joule</em><em>.</em>

<em>here</em><em>,</em>

<em>Joule</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>kg</em><em>×</em><em>m</em><em>×</em><em>m</em><em>)</em><em>/</em><em>(</em><em>s</em><em>×</em><em>s</em><em>)</em>

Answer:

Charge on each metal sphere will be 8\times 10^{8}C

Explanation:

We have given number of electron added to metal sphere A n=10^{12}electron

As both the spheres are connected by rod so half -half electron will be distributed on both the spheres.

So electron on both the spheres =\frac{10^{12}}{2}=5\times 10^{11}electron

We know that charge on each electron e=1.6\times 10^{-19}C

So charge on both the spheres will be equal to q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 5\times 10^{11}=8\times 10^{8}C

So charge on each metal sphere will be equal to 8\times 10^{8}C

A sound has a sound level of 30 dB. Its intensity is what multiple of the standard reference level for intensities?
arsen [322]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

1000th multiple of the standard reference level for intensities.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The sound intensity level (β), measured in decibels, of a sound with an intensity of I is defined as follows;

β = 10 log (I / I₀)       --------------------(i)

Where;

I₀ = reference intensity

Given from the question;

β = sound level = 30dB

Substitute this value into equation (i) as follows;

30 = 10 log (I / I₀)

Divide both sides by 3;

3 = log (I / I₀)

Take antilog of both sides;

10^(3) = (I / I₀)

1000 = I / I₀

Solve for I;

I = 1000I₀

Therefore the intensity of the sound is 1000 times the standard reference level for intensities (I₀)
