Inertia: Objects tend to move at the same speed and direction or, if at rest, stay at rest. A force has to be applied to overcome inertia. An objects inertia is determined by the mass of the object.

Calculate the change in length of a Pyrex glass dish (Coefficient of linear expansion for Pyrex is 3 * 10-6 / oC) that is 0.25 m
DIA [1.3K]

9*10^{-5} m

Explanation:

Step 1:

We are given the initial length of the Pyrex glass dish at a particular temperature and need to calculate the change in the length when the temperature changes by 120° C. The coefficient of linear expansion of Pyrex is provided.

Step 2:

Change in length = Coefficient of linear expansion * Change in temperature * Initial length

Step 3:

Coefficient of linear expansion = 3*10^{-6} /°C

Change in temperature = 120°C = 120 K

Initial length = 0.25 m

Step 4:

Change in length = 3*10^{-6} * 120 * 0.25 = 9*10^{-5} m

When two or more capacitors are connected in series across a potential difference:
34kurt

Answer:

A) and B) are correct.

Explanation:

Let's take a look at the attached picture. Now

The total voltage across both capacitors is the same as the sum of the voltage from each device, that statement is true for any electrical device connected in series. So a) is TRUE

The equivalent capacitance is going to be: \frac{1}{C_{total}}=\frac{1}{C_1} +\frac{1}{C_2}

And that value can be mathematically proven that is always less than any of the values of each capacitor. So b is TRUE

And through both capacitors flow the same current, but the amount of charge depends on the value of the capacitors, so only could be the same if the capacitors are the same value. Otherwise, don't. C) not always, so FALSE

A current-carrying wire 0.50 m long is positioned perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field. If the current is 10.0 A and there
____ [38]

<em>Answer</em>


0.6 teslas


<em>Explanation</em>

When a conductor is inside a magnetic field it experiences a force given by;

Force = ILBsinθ


Where I⇒ current

L ⇒length of the conductor

B ⇒ magnetic field strength

θ ⇒ Angle between the conductor and magnetic field.


F = ILBsinθ


When θ = 90°, Then sin 90 =1 and the formula becomes;

F =ILB

3 = 10 × 0.5 × B

3 = 5B

B = 3/5

= 0.6


magnetic field strength = 0.6 teslas

If an object is dropped from a height of meters, the velocity (in ) at impact is given by v= √2gh , where g=9.8m/sec^2 is the ac
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

A.) V = 14 m/s

B.) h = 36.6 m

Explanation:

Given the formula v = √2gh

where g = 9.8m/sec^2 is the acceleration due to gravity.

A.) Determine the impact velocity for an object dropped from a height of 10 m.

Substitute height h in the given formula

V = √2gh 

V = √2 × 9.8 × 10

V = √196

V = 14 m/s

b. Determine the height required for an object to have an impact velocity of 26.8 m/sec (~ 60 mph). Round to the nearest tenth of a meter.

Substitute the velocity in the given formula and make height h the subject of formula.

26.8 = √2 × 9.8 × h

Square both sides

718.24 = 19.6h

h = 718.24 / 19.6

h = 36.64 m

h = 36.6 m

The impact time for a particular collision is 3.0 x 10^-3 seconds and the impulse in the collision is 0.30 newton seconds. What
BartSMP [9]

<u>Answer</u>

C.) 1.0 x 10^2 Newton’s


<u>Explanation</u>

The Newton's second law of motion states that, the rate of change of momentum is proportional to the force producing it.

∴ F = (mv- mu)/t

  Ft = mv - mu.

The quantity Ft is called the  impulse.

Ft =  0.30 Newton seconds

but t = 3.0 x 10⁻³ seconds

Ft =  0.30 Ns

F × 3.0 x 10⁻³ =  0.30 Ns

F =  0.30 / (3.0 x 10⁻³)

  = 100 N

  Answer =  C.) 1.0 x 10^2 Newton’s
