Wire 1 has a resistance R1. Wire 2 is made of the same material, with length 1/2 as long and diameter 1/4. What is the resistanc

e ratio R2/R1?
Physics
1 answer:
hodyreva [135]3 years ago
5 0

-- reduce the length of a wire to 1/2 . . . cut the resistance in half

-- reduce the diameter to 1/4 . . . reduce the cross-section area by (1/4²) . . . increase the resistance by 16x .

-- R2 = (R1) · (1/2) · (16)  =  8 · R1

<em>-- R2 / R1  =  8</em>

A physical pendulum in the form of a planar object moves in simple harmonic motion with a frequency of 0.460 Hz. The pendulum ha
zlopas [31]

Answer:

The  moment of inertia is  I =1.0697 \ kg m^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  frequency is  f  =  0.460 \ Hz

    The  mass of the pendulum is  m  =  2.40  \ kg

    The  location of the pivot from the center is d  =  0.380 \ m

     

Generally the period of the simple harmonic motion is mathematically represented as

        T   = 2 \pi  *  \sqrt{  \frac{I}{ m  *  g *  d  } }

Where I is the moment of inertia about the pivot point , so making I the subject of the formula it

=>    I =  [ \frac{T}{2 \pi } ]^2 *  m*  g * d

But the period of this simple harmonic motion can also be represented mathematically as

        T  =  \frac{1}{f}

substituting values

      T  =  \frac{1}{0.460}

      T  =  2.174 \ s

So

      I =  [ \frac{2.174}{2 * 3.142 } ]^2 *   2.40*  9.8 * 0.380

      I =1.0697 \ kg m^2

What is the internal energy of 2.00 mol of diatomic hydrogen gas (H2) at 35°C?
djyliett [7]
As you mentioned, we will use <span>Equipartition Theorem.
</span><span>H2 has 5 degrees of freedom; 3 translations and 2 rotation
</span>Therefore:
Internal energy = (5/2) nRT
You just substitute in the equation with the values of R and T and calculate the internal energy as follows:
Internal energy = (5/2) x 2 x <span>8.314 x 308 = 32.0089 x 10^3 J</span>

The largest graduated cylinder in my lab holds 2 L and has an inner diamter (the part that holds the water) of 8 cm. When it is
mestny [16]

Answer:

<em>3924 Pa</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Volume of cylinder = 2 L = 0.002 m^3  (1000 L = 1 m^3)

diameter of the inner cylinder = 8 cm = 0.08 m  (100 cm = 1 m)

radius of the inner cylinder = diameter/2 = 0.08/2 = 0.04 m

area of the inner cylinder = \pi r^{2}

where \pi = 3.142,

and r = radius = 0.04 m

area of inner cylinder = 3.142 x 0.04^{2} = 0.005 m^2

<em>height h of the water in this cylinder = volume/area</em>

h = 0.002/0.005 = 0.4 m

<em>pressure at the bottom of the cylinder due to the height of water = pgh</em>

where

p = density of water = 1000 kg/m^3

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

h = height of water within this cylinder = 0.4 m

pressure = 1000 x 9.81 x 0.4 = <em>3924 Pa</em>
