What is the formula to calculate moisture content?

Physics

Calculation of moisture content. Calculate the moisture content on a wet-weight basis using the following formula: Moisture content (%) = W2 - W3 x 100 W2-W1. where, W1 = weight of container with lid; W2 = weight of container with lid and sample before drying; and W3 = weight of container with lid and sample after drying.

describe how you can use a compass needle to determine the direction of a magnetic field at a given location
Solnce55 [7]

The compass doesn’t give you the value of the net magnetic field, just the direction. So, how do you get the magnitude of a particular field from this? The trick is to assume the value of the Earth’s magnetic field and the direction of the compass. Let’s assume that at this location on the Earth, the magnetic field is pointing directly North with a horizontal component of about 2 x 10-5 T.

Now suppose that I do something to create a magnetic field in a known direction and perpendicular to the horizontal component of the Earth’s magnetic field. Here is an example where I put a current carrying wire right over the compass needle. Since the compass is underneath the wire, the magnetic field due to the wire will be 90° to the Earth’s magnetic field.

2. While standing near a bus stop, a student hears a distant horn beeping. The frequency emitted by the horn is 440 Hz. The bus
jarptica [38.1K]

Given Information:

Frequency of horn = f₀ = 440 Hz

Speed of sound = v = 330 m/s

Speed of bus = v₀ = 20 m/s

Answer:

Case 1. When the bus is crossing the student = 440 Hz

Case 2. When the bus is approaching the student = 414.9 Hz

Case 3. When the bus is moving away from the student = 468.4 Hz

Explanation:

There are 3 cases in this scenario:

Case 1. When the bus is crossing the student

Case 2. When the bus is approaching the student

Case 3. When the bus is moving away from the student

Let us explore each case:

Case 1. When the bus is crossing the student:

Student will hear the same frequency emitted by the horn that is 440 Hz.

f = 440 Hz

Case 2. When the bus is approaching the student

f = f₀ ( v / v+v₀ )

f = 440 ( 330/ 330+20 )

f = 440 ( 330/ 350 )

f = 440 ( 0.943 )

f = 414.9 Hz

Case 3. When the bus is moving away from the student

f = f₀ ( v / v+v₀ )

f = 440 ( 330/ 330-20 )

f = 440 ( 330/ 310 )

f = 440 ( 1.0645 )

f = 468.4 Hz

BigorU [14]

Answer:

inertia

Explanation:

The property of matter that will keep the body in motion when the car comes to a halt is the inertia force.

Inertia is the ability of a body to remain in static position. It is the tendency to remain in a stable condition where there is no motion.

  • Newton's first law is the law of inertia and it states that a body remain in a state of rest or of uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force.
  • The ability to remain in state of rest by a body is predicated on the force of inertia.

A swimmer is swimming to the left with a speed of 1.0 m/s when she starts to speed up with constant acceleration. The swimmer re
kolezko [41]

Answer:

Correct answer: t = 2.86 seconds

Explanation:

We first use this formula

V² - V₀² = 2 a d    

where V is the final velocity (speed), V₀ the initial velocity (speed),

a the acceleration and d the distance.

We will calculate the acceleration from this formula

a = (V² - V₀²) / (2 d) = (2.5² - 1²) / (2 · 5) = (6.25 - 1) / 10 = 5.25 / 10

a = 0.525 m/s²

then we use this formula

V = V₀ + a t  => t = (V - V₀) / a = (2.5 - 1) / 0.525 = 1.5 / 0.525 = 2.86 seconds

t = 2.86 seconds

A man walking on a tightrope carries a long a pole which has heavy items attached to the two ends. If he were to walk the tight-
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

 I_weight = M L²

this value is much larger and with it it is easier to restore balance.I

Explanation:

When man walks a tightrope, he carries a linear velocity, this velocity is related to the angular velocity by

            v = w r

For man to maintain equilibrium needs the total moment to be zero

             ∑τ = I α

              S  τ = 0

The forces on the home are the weight of the masses, the weight of the man and the support on the rope, the latter two are zero taque the distance to the center of rotation is zero.

Therefore the moment of the masses and the open is the one that must be zero.

If the man carries only the bar, we could approximate it by two open one on each side of the axis of rotation formed by the free of the rope

              I = ⅓ m L² / 4

As the length of half the length of the bar and the mass of the bar is small, this moment is small, therefore at the moment if there is some imbalance it is difficult to recover.

If, in addition to the opening, each of them carries a specific weight, the moment of inertia of this weight is

             I_weight = M L²

this value is much larger and with it it is easier to restore balance.
