Well, if there were no air resistance, then a helicopter couldn't fly.  But let's do the physics and the Math anyway:

The way gravity works, the speed of a falling object increases at the rate of 9.8 m/s every second.

So, after falling for 12 seconds, its speed is (12 x 9.8) = <em>117.6 m/s </em>.

gregori [183]

Answer:

a ) -10780 Pa

Explanation:

b ) Initially the pressure inside lungs and atmospheric pressure are equal . When the gauge pressure of the lungs becomes negative , its pressure becomes less than the atmospheric pressure . It creates a pressure difference between the pressure acting on the open surface of water and surface of water inside the pipe which is connected to the lungs. This difference pulls the water inside the pipe.

Pressure difference = gauze pressure of lungs = h d g = 1.1 x 1000 x 9.8

= 10780 Pa.

Two inductors, L1 and L2, are in parallel. L1 has a value of 25 mH and L2 a value of 50 mH. The parallel combination is in serie
Bond [772]

Answer:

Explanation:

For parallel inductors ,

\frac{1}{L_R} = \frac{1}{L_1} +\frac{1}{L_2}

\frac{1}{L_R} =\frac{1}{25} +\frac{1}{50}

L_R=16.67 mH.

For series combination

Total inductance

= 16.67 + 20

= 36.67 mH .

reactance of total inductance at 300 kHz

= ωL_{total} where ω is angular frequency

= 2πfL_{total}

= 2 x 3.14 x 300 x 10³ x 36.67 x 10⁻³

= 69.1 x 10³ ohm

Total rms current = Vrms / reactance

= 60 / 69.1 x 10³ A

= .87 x 10⁻³ A

= .87 mA

What are the common names for radio waves and what is ultraviolet waves
creativ13 [48]
UV waves are the wave that is just above human eyesight from the naked eye. Ultra violet for real means more violet. As the radio waves, you will have to wait for the next commenter as I have no idea. Sorry!

Two concentric circular loops of wire lie on a tabletop, one inside the other. The inner wire has a diameter of 20.0 cm and carr
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Magnetic field due to circular wire at the center = μ₀ I / 2 r

I is current and r is radius . μ₀ = 4π x 10⁻⁷.

field B₁ due to inner loop

B₁ = 4π x 10⁻⁷ x 12 / 2 x .20

= 376.8 x 10⁻⁷

Field due to outer loop

B₂ = 4π x 10⁻⁷ x I / 2 x .30

For equilibrium

B₁ = B₂

376.8 x 10⁻⁷ =  4π x 10⁻⁷ x I / 2 x .30

I = 18 A.

The direction should be opposite to that in the inner wire . It should be anti-clockwise.
