A man jogs at a velocity of 2.5 m/s west for 1,200 s. He then walks at a velocity 1.0 m/s east for 500 s and then stops to rest

. What is the displacement of man when he stops to rest?

Speed of man towards West =2.5 m/s

Time to travel in the given direction = 1200 s

Total displacement towards west

$d_1 = v_1 t$

$d_1 = 2.5 \times 1200 = 3000 m$

Now speed of man towards East = 1 m/s

time to travel in east direction = 500 s

total displacement towards East

$d_2 = v_2 t$

$d_2 = 1 \times 500 = 500 m$

Now total displacement will be

$d = d_1 - d_2$

$d = 3000 - 500 = 2500 m$

so it is 2500 m towards west

What is the volume V of a sample of 4.00 mol of copper? The atomic mass of copper (Cu) is 63.5 g/mol, and the density of copper

rusak2 [61]

Answer : The volume of a sample of 4.00 mol of copper is $28.5cm^3$

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the mass of copper.

$\text{ Mass of copper}=\text{ Moles of copper}\times \text{ Molar mass of copper}$

$\text{ Mass of copper}=(4.00moles)\times (63.5g/mole)=254g$

Now we have to calculate the volume of copper.

Formula used :

$Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}$

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

$8.92\times 10^3kg/m^3=\frac{254g}{Volume}$

$Volume=\frac{254g}{8.92\times 10^3kg/m^3}=2.85\times 10^{-2}L=2.85\times 10^{-2}\times 10^3cm^3=28.5cm^3$

Conversion used :

$1kg/m^3=1g/L\\\\1L=10^3cm^3$

Therefore, the volume of a sample of 4.00 mol of copper is $28.5cm^3$

A hollow cylinder with an inner radius of and an outer radius of conducts a 3.0-A current flowing parallel to the axis of the cy

Artemon [7]

Complete Question:

A hollow cylinder with an inner radius of 4.0mm and an outer radius of 30mm conducts a 3.0-A current flowing parallel to the axis of the cylinder. If the current density is uniform throughout the wire, what is the magnitude of the magnetic field at a point 12mm from its center?

Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic field = 7.24 μT

Explanation:

Inner radius, a = 4.0 mm = 0.004 m

Outer radius, b = 30 mm = 0.03 m

Radius, r = 12 mm = 0.012 m

let h² = b² - a²

h² = 0.03² - 0.004²

h² = 0.000884

Let d² = r² - a²

d² = 0.012² - 0.004²

d² = 0.000128

Current I = 3A

μ = 4π * 10⁻⁷

The magnitude of the magnetic field is given by:

$B = \frac{\mu I d^{2} }{2\pi r h^{2} } \\B = \frac{4\pi * 10^{-7} * 3* 0.000128^{2} }{2\pi *0.012* 0.000884^{2} }$

B = 7.24 * 10⁻⁶T

B = 7.24 μT

Two scales on a nondigital voltmeter measure voltages up to 20.0 and 30.0 V, respectively. The resistance connected in series wi

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Resistance of the circuit is 820 Ω

Explanation:

Given:

Two galvanometer resistance are given along with its voltages.

Let the resistance is "R" and the values of voltages be 'V' and 'V1' along with 'G' and 'G1'.

⇒ $V=20\ \Omega,\ V_1=30\ \Omega$

⇒ $G=1680\ \Omega,\ G_1=2930\ \Omega$

Concept to be used:

Conversion of galvanometer into voltmeter.

Let $G$ be the resistance of the galvanometer and $I_g$ the maximum deflection in the galvanometer.

To measure maximum voltage resistance $R$ is connected in series .

So,

⇒ $V=I_g(R+G)$

We have to find the value of $R$ we know that in series circuit current are same.

For $G=1680$ For $G_1=2930$

⇒ $I_g=\frac{V}{R+G}$ equation (i) ⇒ $I_g=\frac{V_1}{R+G_1}$ equation (ii)

Equating both the above equations:

⇒ $\frac{V}{R+G} = \frac{V_1}{R+G_1}$

⇒ $V(R+ G_1) = V_1 (R+G)$

⇒ $VR+VG_1 = V_1R+V_1G$

⇒ $VR-V_1R = V_1G-VG_1$

⇒ $R(V-V_1) = V_1G-VG_1$

⇒ $R =\frac{V_1G-VG_1}{(V-V_1)}$

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ $R =\frac{(30\times 1680) - (20\times 2930)}{(20-30)}$

⇒ $R =\frac{(50400 - 58600)}{(-10)}$

⇒ $R=\frac{-8200}{-10}$

⇒ $R=820\ \Omega$

The coil resistance of the circuit is 820 Ω .

A simple pendulum having a length of 1.02 m and a mass of 6.66 kg undergoes simple harmonic motion when given an initial speed o

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

<em>Time period of pendulum is 2.02 s.</em>

Explanation:

A <em>simple pendulum</em> is a device which consists of mass m hanging from the string of length L attached to the some point.When displaced and released its swings back and forth with periodic motion.

The time period of pendulum is defined as time taken by the pendulum to complete one full oscillation . it is denoted by T.

By <em>Huygens law of period of pendulum</em>,

T = 2π $\sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }$ eqn 1

where L is the length of pendulum,

g is acceleration due to gravity

<em>Period of pendulum is independent of the mass of pendulum,</em>

<em />

Substituting values in eqn 1

T = 2π $\sqrt{\frac{1.02}{9.8\\} }$

T = 2.02 s

<em>Time period of pendulum is 2.02 s.</em>
