Answer:

+ 3.0 m

Explanation:

displacement is shortest distance from fixed point O in particular direction . in diagram shortest distance at end from O is 3 m and it is right of O so +. HENCE +3.0m

A glass window 0.33 cm thick measures 87 cm by 36 cm. How much heat flows through this window per minute if the inside and outsi

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

6.38 x 10^4 J

Explanation:

d = 0.33 cm = 0.33 x 10^-2 m, Area = 87 x 36 cm^2 = 0.87 x 0.36 m^2

ΔT = 14 degree C, t = 1 min = 60 second

K = 0.8 W / m K

Heat = K A ΔT t / d

H = 0.8 x 0.87 x 0.36 x 14 x 60 / (0.33 x 10^-2)

H = 6.38 x 10^4 J

True or false the refraction of a wave is how many wavelengths pass a fixed point each second

Ksenya-84 [330]

False. That description fits the wave's 'frequency'.
It has nothing to do with refraction.

A 30 g horizontal metal bar, 13 cm long, is free to slide up and down between two tall, vertical metal rods that are 13 cm apart

natita [175]

Answer:

Terminal speed, v = 6901.07 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the horizontal bar, m = 30 g = 0.03 kg

Length of the bar, l = 13 cm = 0.13 m

Magnetic field, $B=5.5\times 10^{-2}\ T$

Resistance, R = 1.2 ohms

We need to find the terminal speed oat which the bar falls. When terminal speed is reached,

Force of gravity = magnetic force

$mg=ilB$ ..................(1)

i is the current flowing

l is the length of the rod

Due to the motion in rods, an emf is induced in the coil which is given by :

$E=Blv$ , v is the speed of the bar

$iR=Blv$

$i=\dfrac{Blv}{R}$

Equation (1) becomes,

$mg=\dfrac{B^2l^2v}{R}$

$v=\dfrac{mgR}{B^2l^2}$

$v=\dfrac{0.03\times 9.8\times 1.2}{(5.5\times 10^{-2})^2(0.13)^2}$

v = 6901.07 m/s

So, the terminal speed at which the bar falls is 6901.07 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
