Answer:

R_total = 14.57 Ω , V_C = 1.176 V

Explanation:

To solve this circuit we are going to find the equivalent resistance of each branch, let's remember

* Serial resistance

$R_{eq}$ = ∑ $R_{i}$

* For resistance in parallel

1 / R_{eq} = ∑ 1/R_{i}

We solve the two branches of the wheatstone bridge

Series resistors

Branch B

R_B = Rb + R4

R_B = 2 + 18

R_B = 20 Ω

Branch C

R_C5 = Rc + R5

R_C5 = 3 + 12

R_C5 = 15 Ω

Resistance in parallel R_B and R_C5

1 / R_BC = 1 / R_B + 1 / R_C5

1 / R_BC = 1/20 + 1/15 = 0.116666

R_BC = 8.57 Ω

Now we have a single branch, we solve the series resistance

R_total = R_A + R_BC

R_total = 6 + 8.57

R_total = 14.57 Ω

b) they ask us for the voltage in the resistance R_C

Let's remember that the voltage in a series circuit is the sum of the voltages

10 = V_a + V_BC

10 = i R_a + i R_BC = i (R_a + R_BC)

i = 10 / (R_a + R_BC)

i = 10 / (14.57)

i = 0.6863 A

The current in the series circuit is constant

V_BC = i R_BC

V_BC = 0.6863 8.57

V_BC = 5.8819 V

This voltage is divided in the bridge, for the two branches in parallel it is the same, but the resistance is different in each branch.

Branch C

V_BC = i R_C5

i = V_BC / R_C5

i = 5.8819 / 15

i = 0.39213 A

In this branch we have two resistors in series, let's remember that the current in a series circuit is constant

V_C = i R_C

V_C = 0.39213 3

V_C = 1.176 V

A stone is dropped into a well. The sound of the splash is heard 3.5 seconds later. What is the depth of the well? Take the spee

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

The depth of the well, s = 54.66 m

Given:

time, t = 3.5 s

speed of sound in air, v = 343 m/s

Solution:

By using second equation of motion for the distance traveled by the stone when dropped into a well:

$s = ut +\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

Since, the stone is dropped, its initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

and acceleration is due to gravity only, the above eqn can be written as:

$s = \frac{1}{2}gt'^{2}$

$s = \frac{1}{2}9.8t^{2} = 4.9t'^{2}$ (1)

Now, when the sound inside the well travels back, the distance covered,s is given by:

$s = v\times t''$

$s = 343\times t''$ (2)

Now, total time taken by the sound to travel:

t = t' + t''

t'' = 3.5 - t' (3)

Using eqn (2) and (3):

s = 343(3.5 - t') (4)

from eqn (1) and (4):

$4.9t'^{2} = 343(3.5 - t')$

$4.9t'^{2} + 343t' - 1200.5 = 0$

Solving the above quadratic eqn:

t' = 3.34 s

Now, substituting t' = 3.34 s in eqn (2)

s = 54.66 m

In a liquid with a density of 1500 kg/m3, longitudinal waves with a frequency of 410 Hz are found to have a wavelength of 7.80 m

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The bulk modulus of the liquid is 1.534 x 10¹⁰ N/m²

Explanation:

Given;

density of the liquid, ρ = 1500 kg/m³

frequency of the wave, F = 410 Hz

wavelength of the sound, λ = 7.80 m

The speed of the wave is calculated as;

v = Fλ

v = 410 x 7.8

v = 3,198 m/s

The bulk modulus of the liquid is calculated as;

$V = \sqrt{\frac{B}{\rho} } \\\\V^2 = \frac{B}{\rho}\\\\B = V^2 \rho\\\\B = (3,198 \ m/s)^2 \times 1500 \ kg/m^3\\\\B = 1.534 \ \times 10^{10} \ N/m^2$

Therefore, the bulk modulus of the liquid is 1.534 x 10¹⁰ N/m²

A 1400 kg car starts from rest on a horizontal road and gains a speed of 61 km/h in 19 s. (a) what is its kinetic energy at the

lana [24]

(a) Let's convert the final speed of the car in m/s:
$v_f = 61 km/h = 16.9 m/s$
The kinetic energy of the car at t=19 s is
$K= \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2= \frac{1}{2}(1400 kg)(16.9 m/s)^2=2.00 \cdot 10^5 J$

(b) The average power delivered by the engine of the car during the 19 s is equal to the work done by the engine divided by the time interval:
$P= \frac{W}{\Delta t}$
But the work done is equal to the increase in kinetic energy of the car, and since its initial kinetic energy is zero (because the car starts from rest), this translates into
$P= \frac{K}{\Delta t}= \frac{2.00 \cdot 10^5 J}{19 s}=1.05 \cdot 10^4 W$

(c) The instantaneous power is given by
$P_i = Fv_f$
where F is the force exerted by the engine, equal to F=ma.

So we need to find the acceleration first:
$a= \frac{v_f-v_i}{\Delta t}= \frac{16.9 m/s}{19 s}=0.89 m/s^2$
And the problem says this acceleration is constant during the motion, so now we can calculate the instantaneous power at t=19 s:
$P_i = Fv=(ma)v=(1400 kg)(0.89 m/s^2)(16.9 m/s)=2.11 \cdot 10^4 W$
