Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

Resistance C is connected in parallel with the 120 V voltage source, so we can determine the current through this resistance by the ohm law.

I = V / R

where:

V = voltage [volt]

R = resistance [ohm]

I = 120 / 100

I = 1.2[amp]

The resistors d, e & f, are connected in series, therefore you can calculate the total resistance of them by performing an algebraic sum.

Rt = 400 + 200 + 200 = 800 [ohm]

This total resistance, will be connected in parallel, with the voltage source in this way we can calculate the current that passes through it through the ohm law.

I2 = 120 / 800 = 0.15 [amp]

The resistors a & b, are connected in series, therefore you can calculate the total resistance of them by performing an algebraic sum.

Rt2 = 100 + 100 = 200 [ohm]

This total resistance, will be connected in parallel, with the voltage source in this way we can calculate the current that passes through it through the ohm law.

I3 = 120 / 200 = 0.6 [amp]

Now we can write the currents for each of the resistors.

a ) I = 0.6 [amp]

b) I = 0.6 [amp]

c) I = 1.2 [amp]

d) I = 0.15 [amp]

e) I = 0.15 [amp]

f) I = 0.15 [amp]

A physics student of mass 43.0 kg is standing at the edge of the flat roof of a building, 12.0 m above the sidewalk. An unfriend

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

The speed of the student just before she lands, v₂ is approximately 8.225 m/s

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the physic student, m = 43.0 kg

The height at which the student is standing, h = 12.0 m

The radius of the wheel, r = 0.300 m

The moment of inertia of the wheel, I = 9.60 kg·m²

The initial potential energy of the female student, P.E.₁ = m·g·h₁

Where;

m = 43.0 kg

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

h = 12.0 h

∴ P.E.₁ = 43 kg × 9.81 m/s² × 12.0 m = 5061.96 J

The kinetic rotational energy of the wheel and kinetic energy of the student supporting herself from the rope she grabs and steps off the roof, K₁, is given as follows;

$K_1 = \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot m \cdot v_{1}^2+\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot I \cdot \omega_{1}^2$

The initial kinetic energy, 1/2·m·v₁² and the initial kinetic rotational energy, 1/2·m·ω₁² are 0

∴ K₁ = 0 + 0 = 0

The final potential energy of the student when lands. P.E.₂ = m·g·h₂ = 0

Where;

h₂ = 0 m

The final kinetic energy, K₂, of the wheel and student is give as follows;

$K_2 = \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot m \cdot v_{2}^2+\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot I \cdot \omega_{2}^2$

Where;

v₂ = The speed of the student just before she lands

ω₂ = The angular velocity of the wheel just before she lands

By the conservation of energy, we have;

P.E.₁ + K₁ = P.E.₂ + K₂

∴ m·g·h₁ + $\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot m \cdot v_{1}^2+\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot I \cdot \omega_{1}^2$ = m·g·h₂ + $\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot m \cdot v_{2}^2+\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot I \cdot \omega_{2}^2$

Where;

ω₂ = v₂/r

∴ 5061.96 J + 0 = 0 + $\dfrac{1}{2} \times 43.0 \, kg \times v_{2}^2+\dfrac{1}{2} \times 9.60 \, kg\cdot m^2 \cdot \left (\dfrac{v_2}{0.300 \, m} }\right ) ^2$

5,061.96 J = 21.5 kg × v₂² + 53. $\overline 3$ kg × v₂² = 21.5 kg × v₂² + 160/3 kg × v₂²

v₂² = 5,061.96 J/(21.5 kg + 160/3 kg) ≈ 67.643118 m²/s²

v₂ ≈ √(67.643118 m²/s²) ≈ 8.22454363 m/s

The speed of the student just before she lands, v₂ ≈ 8.225 m/s.

An electron is released from rest at a distance of 0.470 m from a large insulating sheet of charge that has uniform surface char

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Part a)

$W = 1.58 \times 10^{-20} J$

Part b)

$v = 1.86 \times 10^5 m/s$

Explanation:

Part a)

Electric field due to large sheet is given as

$E = \frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}$

$\sigma = 4.00 \times 10^{-12} C/m^2$

now the electric field is given as

$E = \frac{4.00 \times 10^{-12}}{2(8.85 \times 10^{-12})}$

$E = 0.225 N/C$

Now acceleration of an electron due to this electric field is given as

$a = \frac{eE}{m}$

$a = \frac{(1.6 \times 10^{-19})(0.225)}{9.1 \times 10^{-31}}$

$a = 3.97 \times 10^{10}$

Now work done on the electron due to this electric field

$W = F.d$

$d = 0.470 - 0.03$

$d = 0.44 m$

So work done is given as

$W = (ma)(0.44)$

$W = (9.11 \times 10^{-31})(3.97 \times 10^{10})(0.44)$

$W = 1.58 \times 10^{-20} J$

Part b)

Now we know that work done by all forces = change in kinetic energy of the electron

so we will have

$W = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 - 0$

$1.58 \times 10^{-20} = \frac{1}{2}(9.1\times 10^{-31})v^2$

$v = 1.86 \times 10^5 m/s$

Which of newton's three laws is the hardest to describe or explain when viewing common occurrences?

choli [55]

Newton's second law is the hardest to describe as it is about momentum (F = ma), and a lot of people don't know the concept of momentum.

Newton's first law of motion:- every object moves in a straight line unless acted upon by a force.

Newton's 2nd law of motion:-the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force exerted and inversely proportional to the item's mass. Newton's 2nd law is a quantitative description of the changes that a force can produce on the motion of a body. It states that the time rate of change of the momentum of a body is equal in both magnitude and direction to the force imposed on it.

Newton's 3rd law of motion:- For every action, there's an equal and opposite reaction.
