Answer:

To measure the total current, the ammeter must be placed at position 1, as all the current in the circuit must pass through this wire, and ammeters are always connected in series. To measure the total voltage in the circuit, the voltmeter could be placed at either position 3 or position 4.

A cold beverage can be kept cold even a warm day if it is slipped into a porous ceramic container that has been soaked in water.

Arisa [49]

Answer:

The rate at which the container is losing water is 0.0006418 g/s.

Explanation:

Under the assumption that the can is a closed system, the conservation law applied to the system would be: $E_{in}-E_{out}=E_{change}$ , where $E_{in}$ is all energy entering the system, $E_{out}$ is the total energy leaving the system and, $E_{change}$ is the change of energy of the system.
As the purpose is to kept the beverage can at constant temperature, the change of energy ( $E_{change}$ ) would be 0.
The energy that goes into the system, is the heat transfer by radiation from the environment to the top and side surfaces of the can. This kind of transfer is described by: $Q=\varepsilon*\sigma*A_S*(T_{\infty}^4-T_S^4)$ where $\varepsilon$ is the emissivity of the surface, $\sigma=5.67*10^{-8}\frac{W}{m^2K}$ known as the Stefan–Boltzmann constant, $A_S$ is the total area of the exposed surface, $T_S$ is the temperature of the surface in Kelvin, $T_{\infty}$ is the environment temperature in Kelvin.
For the can the surface area would be ta sum of the top and the sides. The area of the top would be $A_{top}=\pi* r^2=\pi(0.0252m)^2=0.001995m^2$ , the area of the sides would be $A_{sides}=2*\pi*r*L=2*\pi*(0.0252m)*(0.09m)=0.01425m^2$ . Then the total area would be $A_{total}=A_{top}+A_{sides}=0.01624m^2$
Then the radiation heat transferred to the can would be $Q=\varepsilon*\sigma*A_S*(T_{\infty}^4-T_S^4)=1*5.67*10^{-8}\frac{W}{m^2K}*0.01624m^2*((32+273K)^4-(17+273K)^4)=1.456W$ .
The can would lost heat evaporating water, in this case would be $Q_{out}=\frac{dm}{dt}*h_{fg}$ , where $\frac{dm}{dt}$ is the rate of mass of water evaporated and, $h_{fg}$ is the heat of vaporization of the water ( $2257\frac{J}{g}$ ).
Then in the conservation balance: $Q_{in}-Q_{out}=Q_{change}$ , it would be $1.45W-\frac{dm}{dt}*2257\frac{j}{g}=0$ .
Recall that $1W=1\frac{J}{s}$ , then solving for $\frac{dm}{dt}$ : $\frac{dm}{dt}=\frac{1.45\frac{J}{s} }{2257\frac{J}{g} }=0.0006452\frac{g}{s}$

A grinding wheel is a uniform cylinder with a radius of 8.65 cm and a mass of 0.400 kg . Calculate its moment of inertia about i

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

I = 1.5*10⁻³ kg*m²

Explanation:

It can be showed that the moment of inertia (or rotational inertia) for a uniform cylinder of mass m and radius r, respect an longitudinal axis going through its center (parallel to the height of the cylinder) can be written as follows:

$I = \frac{1}{2}*m*r^{2} = \frac{1}{2}*0.400 kg*(0.0865m)^{2} = 1.5e-3 kg*m2$

A projectile is shot from the edge of a cliff above the ground level with initial velocity of at an angle with the horizontal. (

Xelga [282]

Answer:

t = √2y/g

Explanation:

This is a projectile launch exercise

a) The vertical velocity in the initial instants ( $v_{oy}$ = 0) zero, so let's use the equation

y = $v_{oy}$ t -1/2 g t²

y= - ½ g t²

t = √2y/g

b) Let's use this time and the horizontal displacement equation, because the constant horizontal velocity

x = vox t

x = v₀ₓ √2y/g

c) Speeds before touching the ground

vₓ = vox = constant

$v_{y}$ = $v_{oy}$ - gt

$v_{y}$ = 0 - g √2y/g

$v_{y}$ = - √2gy

tan θ = Vy / vx

θ = tan⁻¹ (vy / vx)

θ = tan⁻¹ (√2gy / vox)

d) The projectile is higher than the cliff because it is a horizontal launch

A pail in a water well is hoisted by means of a frictionless winch, which consists of a spool and a hand crank. When Jill turns

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

166 W

Explanation:

Power is the rate at which work is done.

$\text{Power} = \dfrac{\text{Work done}}{\text{time}}$

The work done by Jill is the product of the weight of the pail and the height it moves.

The weight is the product of the mass and acceleration of gravity, g. Taking g as 9.81 m/s², the weight is

W = (6.90 kg)(9.81 m/s²) = 67.689 N

Work done = (67.689 N)(27.0 m) = 1827.603 J

Power = (1827.603 J) ÷ (11.0 s) = 166 W
