A 6.00 A current runs through a 12-gauge copper wire (diameter 2.05 mm) and through a light bulb. Copper has 8.5×1028 free elect

rons per cubic meter. If you were to use wire of twice the diameter, which of the above answers would change? Would they increase or decrease?

Answer:

Explanation:

Current, I = 6 A

diameter of wire, d = 2.05 mm

number of electrons per unit volume, n = 8.5 x 10^28

If the diameter is doubled,

The resistance of the wire is inversely proportional to the square of the diameter of the wire, so the resistance is  one forth an the current is directly proportional to the diameter of the wire so the current is four times the initial value.

In which of the following situations would convection currents most likely occur?
poizon [28]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Convection is defined as a process in which a fluid (liquid or gas) is heated and the cooler liquid (more dense) settles or sinks at the bottom whereas a hotter material (less dense) will rises to the top.

For example, ice being less dense (cooler material) will float in a lake whereas liquid water being more dense will sink at the bottom.

Thus, we can conclude that situation in which convection currents most likely occur is within the water in a lake as ice forms on the top.

A 35-gram stainless steel ball on a track is moving at a velocity of 9 m/s. On the same track, a 75-gram stainless steel ball is
elena-s [515]

Answer:

4.2 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(35 g) (9 m/s) + (75 g) (-7 m/s) = (35 g) (-15 m/s) + (75 g) v

315 g m/s − 525 g m/s = -525 g m/s + (75 g) v

315 g m/s = (75 g) v

v = 4.2 m/s

A crane raises a crate with a mass of 150 kg to a height of 20 m. Given that
Virty [35]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 29,400 \ Joules}}

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object possesses due to its position. It is the product of mass, height, and acceleration due to gravity.

E_P= m \times g \times h

The object has a mass of 150 kilograms and is raised to a height of 20 meters. Since this is on Earth, the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 meters per square second.

  • m= 150 kg
  • g= 9.8 m/s²
  • h= 20 m

Substitute the values into the formula.

E_p= 150 \ kg \times 9.8 \ m/s^2 \times 20 \ m

Multiply the three numbers and their units together.

E_p=1470 \ kg*m/s^2 \times 20 m

E_p=29400 \ kg*m^2/s^2

Convert the units.

1 kilogram meter square per second squared (1 kg *m²/s²) is equal to 1 Joule (J). Our answer of 29,400 kg*m²/s² is equal to 29,400 Joules.

E_p= 29,400 \ J

The crate has <u>29,400 Joules</u> of potential energy.

An electric motor consumes 8.40 kJ of electrical energy in 1.00 min. Part A If one-third of this energy goes into heat and other
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

The torque is 0.31 Nm.

Explanation:

Electrical energy, E = 8400 J

time, t = 1 min

Angular speed, w = 2900 rpm = 303.53 rad/s

efficiency = 2/3 of input power

The toque is given by  

P =\tau  w\\\\\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{E}{t}=\tau w\\\\\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{8400}{60}=\tau \times 303.53\\\\\tau =0.31 Nm

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

F = 3445.714\,N

Explanation:

The system can be modelled appropriately by the use of the Principle of Momentum Conservation and Impact Theorem:

(48\,kg)\cdot (40.2\,\frac{m}{s} ) - F\cdot (0.56\,s) = 0\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}

The average force exerted on her:

F = 3445.714\,N
