Answer:

Electric potential = V = 33 KV

Explanation:

The breakdown is an electric stress phenomenon. The value of electric field at which breakdown of dry air occur is 3 × 10^6 V/m. So,

E = 3 × 10^6 V/m

d = 1.1 cm = 1.1 × 10^-2 m  

We know that:

E = V/d  

V = Ed  

V = (3 × 10^6)( 1.1 × 10^-2)

V = 33000 V  

V = 33 KV

The electric field is given by volts/distance: E= \frac{V}{d}.  The breakdown voltage of dry air is about 3x10^6V/m.  So solving for V we get
V=Ed
or V=(3e6V/m)(0.011m)=33,000V

Anastaziya [24]

I'm not sure if this is correct but it's what I'll do

This is free-fall problem.
Stone A is thrown upward, at the point it falls down to the place where it was thrown, the velocity is -15m/s.

Now I choose the bridge is the origin. From the bridge, stone A and B fall the same distance which means Ya = Yb ( vertical distance )

Ya = Vo(t + 2) + 1/2a(t+2)^2
= -15(t + 2) + 1/2(9.8)(t^2 + 4t + 4)
= -15t - 30 + 4.5(t^2 + 4t + 4)
= -15t - 30 + 4.5t^2 + 18t + 18
= 4.5t^2 +3t - 12

Yb = Vo(t) + 1/2a(t)^2
= 0 + 4.5t^2

4.5t^2 = 4.5t^2 +3t - 12
0 = 3t - 12
4 = t

Time for Stone B is 4s
Time for Stone A is 6s

You travel 20.0 mph for 0.500 hour, 40.0 mph for 1.00 hour, 30.0 mph for 0.500 hour, and 50.0 mph for 2.00 hours. What is the av
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
The answer is 41.25 mph.

The average speed (v) can be expressed as:
v = D/T  
where
D is total distance: D = d1 + d2 + d3 + d4
T is total time: T = t1 + t2 + t3 + t4

Now let's calculate distances using the formula: d = v * t:
d1 = v1 * t1 = 20.0 * 0.500 = 10 mi
d2 = v2 * t2 = 40.0 * 1.00 = 40 mi
d3 = v3 * t3 = 30.0 * 0.500 = 15 mi
d4 = v4 * t4 = 50.0 * 2.00 = 100 mi

Thus, the average speed is:
v= \frac{D}{T}= \frac{d1 + d2 + d3 +d4}{t1+t2+t3+t4} = \frac{10+40+15+100}{0.500+1.00+0.500+2.00}= \frac{165}{4} = 41.25 mph

*PLEASE HELP! FIRST CORRECT ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST!*
scoray [572]

Answer:

Explanation:

1 advantage of genetic engineering:

It allows for a faster growth rate. Because with genetic engineering, plants and animals are allowed to be modified so their maturity would occur at a quicker pace.

1 disadvantag of genetic engineering:

The nutrition value of foods can be less. For example, in a research show that genetic enginnering make chicken increase the fat content by 220% but reduced the amount of protein.

1 advantage of cloning:

When cloning, the object would be able to create tissue and organs that doctor can use when needed during the surgery.

1 disadvantage of cloning:

If original organism has genetic deffects, it will be passed down through all the continuous generations

1 advantage of artificial selection (can be called as selective breeding):

It will provide improvements to plants and animals. For example, seedless fruits, increast the tast of food, etc.

1 disadvantage of artificial selection (can be called as selective breeding):

It may lead to a lack of variety in plant or animal species. As the breeding is selective so the variety in plant would be decrease. For example, people like seedless fruits than normal included-seed fruit so that would make the new fruit become more popular and may lead to decrease the diversity in fruits.

Hope this help you :3

Ch 31 HW Exercise 31.10 7 of 15 Constants You want the current amplitude through a inductor with an inductance of 4.90 mH (part
sergey [27]

Answer:

f = 130 Khz

Explanation:

In a circuit driven by a sinusoidal voltage source, there exists a fixed relationship between the amplitudes of the current and the voltage through any circuit element, at any time.

For an inductor, this relationship can be expressed as follows:

VL = IL * XL (1) , which is a generalized form of Ohm's Law.

XL is called the inductive reactance, and is defined as follows:

XL = ω*L = 2*π*f*L, where f is the frequency of the sinusoidal source (in Hz) and  L is the value of the inductance, in H.

Replacing in (1), by the values given of VL, IL, and L, we can solve for f, as follows:

f = VL / 2*π*IL*L = 12 V / 2*π*(3.00*10⁻³) A* (4.9*10⁻³) H = 130 Khz
