This phenomenon is as a result of static friction created by the tumbling clothes. Static friction results from the rubbing together of two or mores objects or body and electrons are stripped from one surface of the clothes more than the other. This creates an electrostatic force of attractions between the positive charges on one cloth and the negative charges on the other cloth.(unlike charges attract).

<span>Static cling is caused by friction and in this case is created by the tumbling clothes. The clothes rub against each other when they tumble and when they do, some of the clothes lose electrons, so they have a positive charge. The clothes that receive the electrons will have a negative charge. Opposites attract, so the clothes will stick together due to their charges.</span>

A 100-W (watt) light bulb has resistance R=143Ω (ohms) when attached to household current, where voltage varies as V=V0sin(2πft)
Phantasy [73]

Complete Question

A 100-W (watt) light bulb has resistance R=143Ω (ohms) when attached to household current, where voltage varies as V=V0sin(2πft), where V0=110 V, f=60 Hz. The power supplied to the bulb is P=V2R J/s (joules per second) and the total energy expended over a time period [0,T] (in seconds) is U  =  \int\limits^T_0 {P(t)} \, dt

Compute U if the bulb remains on for 5h

Answer:

The value is  U  =  7.563 *10^{5} \  J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The power rating of the bulb is P  =  100 \  W

   The resistance is   R =  143 \ \Omega

   The  voltage is  V  =  V_o  sin [2 \pi ft]

   The  energy expanded is U  =  \int\limits^T_0 {P(t)} \, dt

   The  voltage  V_o  =  110 \  V

   The frequency is  f =  60 \  Hz

    The  time considered is  t =  5 \  h  =  18000 \  s

Generally power is mathematically represented as

             P =  \frac{V^2}{ R}

=>          P =  \frac{( 110  sin [2 \pi * 60t])^2}{ 144}

=>           P =  \frac{ 110^2 [ sin [120 \pi t])^2}{ 144}

So  

     U  =  \int\limits^T_0 { \frac{ 110^2*  [sin [120 \pi t])^2}{ 144}} \, dt

=>  U  =  \frac{110^2}{144} \int\limits^T_0 { (   sin^2 [120 \pi t]} \, dt

=>  U =  \frac{110^2}{144} \int\limits^T_0 { \frac{1 - cos 2 (120\pi t)}{2} } \, dt

=>  U =  \frac{110^2}{144} \int\limits^T_0 { \frac{1 - cos 240 \pi t)}{2} } \, dt

=>  U =  \frac{110^2}{144} [\frac{t}{2}  - [\frac{1}{2} *  \frac{sin(240 \pi t)}{240 \pi} ] ]\left  | T} \atop {0}} \right.

=>  U =  \frac{110^2}{144} [\frac{t}{2}  - [\frac{1}{2} *  \frac{sin(240 \pi t)}{240 \pi} ] ]\left  | 18000} \atop {0}} \right.

U =  \frac{110^2}{144} [\frac{18000}{2}  - [\frac{1}{2} *  \frac{sin(240 \pi (18000))}{240 \pi} ] ]

=>   U  =  7.563 *10^{5} \  J

A 1.2 kg basketball is thrown upwards. What is the potential energy of the basketball at the top of its path if it reaches a hei
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Answer is 183.6 J

Explanation:

Using the Physics reference sheet the formula for Potential energy is

(mass) x (gravity) x (height)

Mass= 1.2

Gravity I used is 9.81 (use 10 to get the answer most schools use)

Height= 15.6

Two carts connected by a 0.05 m spring hit a wall, compressing the spring to 0.02 m. The spring constant k is
vivado [14]

Answer:

0.045 J

Explanation:

From the question,

The elastic potential energy stored in a spring is given as,

E = 1/2ke²...................... Equation 1

Where E = elastic potential energy, k = spring constant, e = compression.

Given: k = 100 N/m, e = 0.05-0.02 = 0.03 m

Substitute these values into equation 1

E = 1/2(100)(0.03²)

E = 50(9×10⁻⁴)

E = 0.045 J

Hence the right option is 0.045 J
