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 $V=(3e6V/m)(0.011m)=33,000V$

The key principle is that crank length, just like frame size, should be proportional to the rider height and then modified to what fits the individual. There are 4 charts, two for the upright position and two for the aero position, depending upon how you race.

A meter stick is suspended vertically at a pivot point 22 cm from the top end. It is rotated on the pivot until it is horizontal

suter [353]

Answer:

5.82812 rad/s

Explanation:

L = Length of meter stick = 1 m = 100 cm

$m_c$ = The center of mass of the stick = $\frac{L}{2}-0.22=0.5-0.22=0.28\ m$

$\omega$ = Angular velocity

Moment of inertia of the system is given by

$I=I_c+mr^2\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{mL^2}{12}+mr^2\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{m1^2}{12}+m0.28^2\\\Rightarrow I=m(\frac{1}{12}+0.0784)$

As the energy in the system is conserved

$mgh=I\frac{\omega^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow mgh=m(\frac{1}{12}+0.0784)\frac{\omega^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow gh=(\frac{1}{12}+0.0784)\frac{\omega^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\frac{2gh}{\frac{1}{12}+0.0784}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 9.81\times 0.28}{\frac{1}{12}+0.0784}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=5.82812\ rad/s$

The maximum angular velocity is 5.82812 rad/s
