what dangers higher voltages have for humans whose resistance changes depending on hand lotion, rubber gloves, other types of gl

7 0

Answer:

Higher voltages pose huge dangers to humans with changes in resistance however, the use of hand lotion and rubber gloves help to reduce the amount of current flowing through the human. Notwithstanding higher currents can lead to death by stopping blood flow to the heart causing a heart attack. Best way to survive voltages above 120 volts is to use a rubber glove and avoid touching bare wires.

Explanation:

Other classes of gloves that can be used include:  Class 1 gloves which can be used for current up to 7,500 volts of AC, Class 2 up to 17,000 volts AC, Class 3 up to 26,500 volts AC, and Class 4 up to 36,000 volts AC. However, cotton gloves can be used inside to absorb perspiration and to improve the comfort of the user.

Two balls of mass m1 and m2, with velocities v1 and v2 collide head on. Is there any way for both balls to have zero velocity af
nordsb [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

As the final Kinetic energy is zero or less than initial kinetic energy, the collision must be inelastic.  

In Inelastic collision both the bodies must stick together as final velocity is zero for both the bodies.

To conserve the momentum, momentum associated before the collision of first must be equal and opposite to the momentum associated with the second ball.

i.e.

m_1v_1=m_2v_2

A hydraulic system contains 3 pistons. The input piston has an area of 0.625 in2, one of the output pistons ( piston A ) has an
Xelga [282]

The area of Piston A is 13.88 in^2

What is a hydraulic system?

The hydraulic system functions by using pressurized fluid.  The power of liquid fuel in hydraulics is significant and as a result, they are commonly used in heavy equipment.

Hydraulic system simply means a mechanical function that operates through the force of liquid pressure.

Here

A hydraulic system contains 3 pistons.

Pressure, P = 1440 psi

for piston A:

Area, A= 0.625 in^2

Force, F = 20,000 lb

We know that,

Force = Pressure x Area

F = P x A

Area ( piston A) = F / P

A = 20,000 / 1440

A = 13.88 in^2

Hence,

The area of Piston A is 13.88 in^2

Problem 10.64 the maximum energy a bone can absorb without breaking is surprisingly small. for a healthy human of mass 67 kg , e
kvasek [131]

Answer: h = 0.30 m

Explanation:

A person jumping from height h would possess potential energy = m g h

which will convert completely into kinetic energy as person hits the ground. Now, the maximum energy absorbed by the person can be = 200 J

m = 67 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

⇒ m g h = 200 J

⇒ h = 200 J / (67 kg × 9.8 m/s²) = 0.30 m

Hence, a person can land safely on both legs without breaking them from a height of 0.30 m only.

Light from a laser (lambda= 406.192 nm) is used to illuminate two narrow slits. The interference pattern is observed on a screen
dsp73

Answer:

The spacing between the slits is    d = 0.00145m                

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The wavelength of the light is \lambda = 406.192nm = 406.192*10^{-9} m

   The distance of the slit from the screen is D = 5.937 \ m

    The number of bright fringe is n = 24

     The  length the fringes span is   L = 39.835 mm = \frac{39.835 }{1000} = 0.0398 m

The fringe width (i.e the distance of between two successive bright or dark fringe) is mathematically represented as

             \beta  = \frac{\lambda D}{d}

Where d is  the distance between the  slits

            \beta is the fringe width which can also be evaluated as

                         \beta = \frac{L}{n}

Substituting values

                        \beta = \frac{0.0398}{24}

                          \beta = 1.660 *10^{-3}

Making d the subject of formula in the above equation

                d = \frac{\lambda D}{\beta }

Substituting values

                d = \frac{406.192 *10^{-9} * 5.937 }{1.660 *10^{-3}}

                    d = 0.00145m

An object of mass 30 kg is in free fall in a vacuum where there is no air resistance. Determine the acceleration of the object.
velikii [3]

Answer:

In free fall, mass is not relevant and there's no air resistance, so the acceleration the object is experimenting will be equal to the gravity exerted. If the object is falling on our planet, the value of gravity is approximately 9.81ms2 .
