Answer:

Part a)

$V = 13.665 V$

Part b)

$P = 74.9 Watt$

Part c)

$P = 540 watt$

Part d)

$P_r = 0.878$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that the during the charging process of the battery the terminal voltage of the cell is given as

$V = E + iR$

$V = 12 + (0.037)(45)$

$V = 13.665 V$

Part b)

Thermal energy dissipated in the battery is due to its internal resistance

so it is given as

$P = i^2 R$

here we have

$P = 45^2 (0.037)$

$P = 74.9 Watt$

Part c)

rate of energy conversion in the in the battery is given as

$P = E. i$

$P = 12(45)$

$P = 540 watt$

Part d)

percentage of the power conversion is given as

$Pr = \frac{P_{out}}{P_{total}}$

$Pr = \frac{540}{540 + 74.9}$

$P_r = 0.878$

Your friend says that if Newton’s third law is correct, no object would ever start moving. Here is his argument: You pull a sled

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

You pull a sled exerting a 50 N force on it , sled also exerts a force on you . These forces are action and reaction force , as per third law of Newton . These two forces are equal and opposite . But they do not act on the same object so they do not cancel each other . They act on different objects , one on the sledge and the other on you . Due to force on sledge , sledge moves in the direction of force or towards you . You will start moving in opposite direction if frictional force of ground is nil or less .

Two cylindrical rods, one copper and the other iron, are identical in lengths and cross-sectional areas. They are joined, end to

Pie

Answer:

Vc = 2.41 v

Explanation:

voltage (v) = 16 v

find the voltage between the ends of the copper rods .

applying the voltage divider theorem

Vc = V x ( $\frac{Rc}{Rc + Ri}$ )

where

Rc = resistance of copper = $\frac{ρl}{a}$ (l = length , a = area, ρ = resistivity of copper)

Ri = resistance of iron = $\frac{ρ₀l}{a}$ (l = length , a = area, ρ₀ = resistivity of copper)

Vc = V x ( $\frac{\frac{ρl}{a}}{\frac{ρl}{a} + \frac{ρ₀l}{a}}$ )

Vc = V x ( $\frac{ρ x (\frac{l}{a})}{(ρ + ρ₀) x (\frac{l}{a})}$ )

Vc = V x ( $\frac{ρ}{ρ + ρ₀}$ )

where

ρ = resistivity of copper = 1.72 x 10^{-8} ohm.meter

ρ₀ = resistivity of iron = 9.71 x 10^{-8} ohm.meter

Vc = 16 x ( $\frac{1.72 x 10^{-8}}{1.72 x 10^{-8} + 9.71 x 10^{-8}}$ )

Vc = 2.41 v

) Force F = − + ( 8.00 N i 6.00 N j ) ( ) acts on a particle with position vector r = + (3.00 m i 4.00 m j ) ( ) . What are (a)

natali 33 [55]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Cross Product of two vectors as well as to obtain the angle through the magnitude of the angles.

The vector product between the Force and the radius allows us to obtain the torque, in this way,

$\tau = \vec{F} \times \vec{r}$

$\tau = (8i+6j)\times(-3i+4j)$

$\tau = (8*4)(i\times j)+(6*-3)(j\times i)$

$\tau = 32k +18k$

$\tau = 50 k$

Therefore the torque on the particle about the origen is 50k

PART B) To find the angle between two vectors we apply the definition of the dot product based on the vector quantities, that is,

$cos\theta = \frac{r\cdot F}{|\vec{r}|*|\vec{F}|}$

$cos\theta = \frac{(8*-3)+(4*3)}{\sqrt{(-3)^2+4^2}*\sqrt{8^2+6^2}}$

$cos\theta = -0.24$

$\theta = cos^{-1} (-0.24)$

$\theta = 103.88\°$

Therefore the angle between the ratio and the force is 103.88°

A student throws a ball upward with a velocity of 35 m/s. What is the acceleration of the ball as it rises to the top of its arc

lora16 [44]

Answer:

The acceleration of the ball as it rises to the top of its arc equals 9.807 meters per square second.

Explanation:

Let suppose that maximum height of the arc is so small in comparison with the radius of the Earth.

Since the ball is launched upwards, then the ball experiments a free-fall motion, that is, an uniform accelerated motion in which the element is accelerated by gravity. Then, the acceleration experimented by the motion remains constant at every instant and position.

Besides, the gravitational acceleration in the Earth and, in consequence, the acceleration of the ball as it rises to the top of its arc equals 9.807 meters per square second.
