Suppose that you needed to make a pen for some small animals. You have 12 m of fencing. You decide to make a circular pen, becau

se if you wish to enclose an area using a given length of fencing, then a circular fence encloses a larger area than a fence of any other shape. What is the radius r of the pen? Express your answer in meters to four significant figures.

Answer:

1.909 m

Explanation:

Length of fence = 12 m

r = Radius of circle made by the provided fence

Cirumference of a circle is given by

$C=2\pi r$

The circumference of the circle will be equal to the length of the fence

$2\pi r=12$

$\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{12}{2\pi}$

$\\\Rightarrow r=1.909\ m$

The radius of the fence is 1.909 m

Two bodies of specific heats S1 and S2 having the same heat capacities are combined to form a single composite body. What is the

Dafna11 [192]

$\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}♨$

Heat capacity of body 1 :

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:m_1s_1$

Heat capacity of body 2 :

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:m_2s_2$

it's given that, the the head capacities of both the objects are equal. I.e

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:m_1s_1 = m_2s_2$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:m_1 = \dfrac{m_2s_2}{s_1}$

Now, consider specific heat of composite body be s'

According to given relation :

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:(m_1 + m_2) s' = m_1s_1 + m_2s_2$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:s' = \dfrac{ m_1s_1 + m_2s_2}{m_1 + m_2}$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:s' = \dfrac{ m_2s_2+ m_2s_2}{ \frac{m_2s_2}{s_1} + m_2 }$

[ since, $m_2s_2 = m_1s_1$ ]

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:s' = \dfrac{ 2m_2s_2}{ m_2(\frac{s_2}{s_1} + 1)}$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:s' = \dfrac{ 2 \cancel{m_2}s_2}{ \cancel{m_2}(\frac{s_2}{s_1} + 1)}$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:s' = \dfrac{ 2 s_2}{ (\frac{s_2 + s_1}{s_1} )}$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: s' = \dfrac{2s_1s_2}{s_1 + s_2}$

A 1.40-kg ball tied to a string fixed to the ceiling is pulled to one side by a force F→ . where L = 1.40 kg. What is the tensio

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

T=13.72N

Explanation:

The tension before the ball is released have no angle is in rest at the same axis of the weight so:

∑F=0

Using Newton law in this case the ball is tied so tension before become to swing is

∑F=FN-T=0

$T=F_{N}$

$T=m*g$

$T=1.40Kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^2}$

$T=13.72N$

(a) What is the current involved when a truck battery sets in motion 720 C of charge in 4.00 s while starting an engine? (b) How

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

(a) Current flowing through truck battery is 180 A

(b) Time taken in calculator is 333.33 s

Explanation:

(a) Given:

The charge on the truck battery,q = 720 C

Time, t = 4.00 s

Consider I be the current flowing through truck battery.

The relation between current, charge and time is:

I = q/t

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

$I=\frac{720}{4}$

I = 180 A

(b) Given:

The charge on the calculator,q = 7.00 C

The current flowing through calculator, I = 0.3 mA = 0.3 x 10⁻³ A

Consider t be the time.

The relation between current, charge and time is:

t = q/I

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

$t=\frac{1}{0.3\times10^{-3} }$

I = 333.33 s
