Which statement describes a question that can be answered by a scientific

(a) when rebuilding her car's engine, a physics major must exert 300 n of force to insert a dry steel piston into a steel cylind

Vilka [71]

There are some missing data in the text of the problem. I've found them online:
a) coefficient of friction dry steel piston - steel cilinder: 0.3
b) coefficient of friction with oil in between the surfaces: 0.03

Solution:
a) The force F applied by the person (300 N) must be at least equal to the frictional force, given by:
$F_f = \mu N$
where $\mu$ is the coefficient of friction, while N is the normal force. So we have:
$F=\mu N$
since we know that F=300 N and $\mu=0.3$ , we can find N, the magnitude of the normal force:
$N= \frac{F}{\mu}= \frac{300 N}{0.3}=1000 N$

b) The problem is identical to that of the first part; however, this time the coefficienct of friction is $\mu=0.03$ due to the presence of the oil. Therefore, we have:
$N= \frac{F}{\mu}= \frac{300 N}{0.03}=10000 N$

A 1000-turn solenoid is 50 cm long and has a radius of 2.0 cm. It carries a current of 18.0 A. What is the magnetic field inside

vitfil [10]

Answer:

The value is $B = 0.0452 \ T$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The number of turns is N = 1000

The length is L = 50 cm = 0.50 m

The radius is r = 2.0 cm = 0.02 m

The current is I = 18.0 A

Generally the magnetic field is mathematically represented as

$B = \mu_o * \frac{N }{L} * I$

Here $\mu_o$ is the permeability of free space with value

$\mu_o = 4\pi * 10^{-7} N/A^2$

So

$B = 4\pi * 10^{-7} * \frac{1000}{0.50} * 18.0$

=> $B = 0.0452 \ T$

1. . The maximum current output of a 60 Ω circuit is 11 A. What is the rms voltage of the circuit?

natta225 [31]

Answer:In a DC circuit, the power consumed is simply the product of the DC voltage times the DC current, given in watts.for AC circuits with reactive components we have to calculate the consumed power differently.

a 1/4 watt resistor or a 20 watt amplifier.
