lesya [120]

Answer:

$d_{2}=0.585m$

Explanation:

The torque is the force by the distance so to determinate that both torque are the same magnitude so

$T_{1}-T_{2}=0$

$T_{1}=T_{2}$

$F_{1}*d_{1}=F_{2}*d_{2}$

$43N*0.30m=21N*d_{2}$

Solve to d2

$d_{2}=\frac{41N*0.30m}{21N}$

$d_{2}=0.585m$

A plane travels 1743 KM in 2 hours 30 minutes. How fast was the plane traveling?

Advocard [28]

Answer:

$v=697.2km/h$

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since the velocity is computed via the division of the distance traveled by the elapsed time:

$V=\frac{d}{t}$

The distance is clearly 1743 km and the time is:

$t=2h+30min*\frac{1h}{60min} =2.5h$

Thus, the velocity turns out:

$v=\frac{1743km}{2.5h}\\ \\v=697.2km/h$

Which is a typical velocity for a plane to allow it be stable when flying.

Best regards.

At 7.0°c, the volume of a gas is 49 ml. at the same pressure, its volume is 74 ml at what temperature?

Rashid [163]

So i converted everything first;
7.0 C ---> 280 K 
49 mL---> 0.049 L 
74mL---> 0.074 L 
THEN I tried setting it up by the combined law formula which is P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2

ichrome wire of cross-sectional radius 0.791 mm is to be used in winding a heating coil. If the coil must carry a current of 9.2

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

length is 23.228091 m

Explanation:

Given data

radius = 0.791 mm = 0.791 × $10^{-3}$ m

current = 9.25 A

voltage = 1.20 × 10² V

to find out

resistance and length of wire

solution

we know the resistance formula that is

resistance = voltage / current

resistance = 1.20 × 10² /9.25

resistance = 12.97

so resistance is 12.97 ohm

and length of nichrome wire formula is

length = resistance × area / specific resistance of wire

so specific resistance of wire we know = 1.1 × $10^{-6}$

and area = $\pi$ × r² = $\pi$ × (0.0791× $10^{-3}$ )²

area = 1.97 × $10^{-6}$

length = 12.97 × 1.97 × $10^{-6}$ / 1.1 × $10^{-6}$

so length is 23.228091 m
