Why current remains same in series combination of resistors in all resistors and p.d. remains different?

1 answer:

4 0

Current at all points of a series circuit must be the same, because there's no place in the circuit where electrons are being manufactured, and no place where they're leaking out and falling on the floor. The nimber of electrons that leaves the loop is the same number that entered it. I'm not sure what is nmeant by "p.d. remains different" .

A race car has a centripetal acceleration of 15.625 m/s2 as it goes around a curve. If the curve is a circle with radius 40 m, w

myrzilka [38]

The centripetal acceleration is given by
$a_c = \frac{v^2}{r}$
where v is the tangential speed and r the radius of the circular orbit.

For the car in this problem, $a_c = 15.625 m/s^2$ and r=40 m, so we can re-arrange the previous equation to find the velocity of the car:
$v= \sqrt{a_c r}= \sqrt{(15.625 m/s^2)(40 m)}=25 m/s$

Joe first focuses his attention (and his eyes) on the tree. The focal length of the cornea-lens system in his eye must be ______

kotykmax [81]

Answer: The focal length of the cornea-lens system in his eye must be LESS THAN the distance between the front and back of his eye.

Explanation:

The human eye the front part of the eye is the CORNEA. This is the tough white transparent part of the eye that helps in the refraction of light rays. While the backside of the eye is the RETINA. This is the part of the eye when images are focused.

When a normal eye is at rest, parallel rays from a distant object are focused on the retina. The ability of the eye - lens to focus points at different distances on the retina is known as accomodation. The adjustment of the eye lens to focus objects of varying distances is brought about by the ciliary muscles. The have the ability to change the shape of the eye which leads to change in focal length.

When a person with normal vision looks at a distant object at infinity, the lens brings parallel rays to focus on the retina. Thus, the furthest point which the eye can see distinctly is called the far point of the eye and it's infinity for a normal eye. But Joe was able to focus his eye on the tree, meaning that the tree was within his near point. This is the nearest point at which an object is clearly seen. Therefore, when the effective focal length of the cornea-lens system changes, it changes the location of the image of any object in one's field of view.

on aircraft carriers, catapults are used to accelerate jet air craft to flight speeds in a short distance. One such catapult tak

sineoko [7]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning)

The jet's change in speed = (70 m/s) - (zero) = 70 m/s

So acceleration = (70 m/s) / (2.5 s)

Acceleration = (70 / 2.5) m/s²

<em>Acceleration = 28 m/s²</em>

That's about 2.9 G's . Jet pilots can endure a lot more than that, but maybe the catapult or the hook on the airplane can't. Let's look a little closer:

F = m A (Newton #2)

The force on the airplane = (18,000 kg) x (28 m/s²)

Force on the airplane = 504,000 Newtons

That's about 113,000 pounds ! Maybe the part of the airplane that the catapult pushes on can't handle any more force than that. Or maybe that's the most force the catapult can deliver.

Also, the REACTION force on the catapult is the same 113,000 pounds. Maybe the hooks or the chains or the struts on the catapult can't handle any more force than that.

That's almost 57 tons for gosh sakes ! Maybe the DECK of the carrier can't handle more force than that, and that's why they can't launch the airplane with acceleration of more than 2.9 G's .
