Estimated by the observer.

Take a buret, you can read to the 0.1 mL directly from the device, but the amount may lie between the 0.1 marks so you can estimate how far between the marks the fluid lies.

The position vector of a particle of mass 1.65 kg as a function of time is given by = (6.00 î + 4.15 t ĵ), where is in meters an
SashulF [63]

Answer:

 L = 41.09 Kg m2 / s      The angular momentum does not depend on the time

Explanation:

The definition of angular momentum is

        L = r x p

Where blacks indicate vectors

Let's apply this definition our case. Linear momentum

      p = m v

Let's replace

      L = m r x v

The given function is

      x = 6.00 i ^ + 4.15 t j ^

We look for speed

     v = dx / dt

     v = 0 + 4.15 j ^

To evaluate the angular momentum one of the best ways is to use determinants

     L = m \left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\6&4.15t&0\\0&4.15&0\end{array}\right]

      L = m 6 4.15 k ^

The other products give zero

Let's calculate

      L = 1.65 6 4.15 k ^

      L = 41.09 Kg m2 / s

The angular momentum does not depend on the time

Find the final velocity
Verizon [17]

Answer: v = 4.4 m/s

Explanation:

In the absence of friction, the total mechanical energy will be constant

KE₀ + PE₀ = KE₁ + PE₁

0 + mg(6) = ½mv₁² + mg(5)

½mv₁² = mg(6 - 5)

v = √(2g(1)) = 4.4 m/s

Question: What is the frequency of a wave that has a wave speed of 120 m/s and a wavelength of 0.40 m?

Answer: The equation that relates frequency of a wave to a waves speed and wavelength is Speed of Wave= Frequency X Wavelength. Since you are given speed and wavelength, you plug those two known numbers into the equation, 120= Frequency X 0.40. You then divide 120 by .4 to get your frequency of 300.

220V is applied to two different conductors made of the same material. One conductor is twice as long and twice as thick as the
ollegr [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

For calculating resistance of a conductor , the formula is

R = ρ l / A , ρ is specific resistance , l is length and A is cross sectional area of wire.

For first wire length is l₁ , area is A₁ resistance is R₁, for second resistance is R₂ , length is l₂ and area is A₂

Given , l₁ = 2l₂ , A₁ = 4A₂ , area is proportional to square of thickness.

R₁ / R₂ = I₁A₂ / I₂A₁

= 2l₂ x A₁ / 4 I₂A₁

= 1 / 2

2R₁ = R₂

Power = V² / R

Ratio of power = (V² / R₁) x (R₂ / V²)

= R₂ / R₁

= 2 .
