What is the definition of Cubit

Physics
1 answer:
disa [49]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

Cubit is a unit of length based on the length of the forearm from the elbow to the tip of the middle finger and usually equal to about 18 inches (46 centimeters).

It is an ancient unit of length used in ancient Egypt and is also known as "ancient Egyptian royal cubit."

Other similar units of measurements are displayed in the image below. Thanks!

A capacitor consists of two parallel plates, each with an area of 17.0 cm2 , separated by a distance of 0.150 cm . The material
Llana [10]

Answer:

a) C = 40.138\,pF, b) q = 16.056\,nC, c) U = 3.212\,\mu J

Explanation:

a) The capacitance of two parallel plates capacitor with dielectric is given by the following expression:

C = K\cdot \epsilon_{o}\cdot \frac{A}{d}

Where:

K - Dielectric constant.

\epsilon_{o} - Vaccum permitivity.

A - Plate area.

d - Distance between plates.

Hence, the capacitance of the system is:

C = (4.00)\cdot (8.854\times 10^{-12}\,\frac{F}{m} )\cdot \left(\frac{17\times 10^{-4}\,m^{2}}{0.150\times 10^{-2}\,m}\right)

C = 4.014\cdot 10^{-11}\,F

C = 40.138\,pF

b) The charge can be found by using the definition of capacitance:

q = C\cdot V_{batt}

q = (4.014\times 10^{-11}\,F)\cdot (400\,V)

q = 1.606\times 10^{-8}\,C

q = 16.056\,nC

c) The energy stored in the charged capacitor is:

U=\frac{1}{2}\cdot Q\cdot V_{batt}

U=\frac{1}{2}\cdot (1.606\times 10^{-8}\,C)\cdot (400\,V)

U = 3.212\times 10^{-6}\,J

U = 3.212\,\mu J

A 75 kg man and a 100. Kg woman are playing tug of war on a frictionless surface. The man accelerates toward the woman at 2.0 m/
Artemon [7]

Complete Question

A 75 kg man and a 100. Kg woman are playing tug of war on a frictionless surface. The man accelerates toward the woman at 2.0 m/s2.How much force does she use to pull on the rope

Answer:

The value is  F  =  150 \  N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of the man is  m_m   =  75 \  kg

     The mass of the woman is  m_f  =  100 \  kg

     The acceleration of the man is  a_m  =  2.0 \  m/s ^2

Generally the force which she used to pull the rope is mathematically represented as  

           F  =  m  *  a

=>         F  =  75 *  2

=>         F  =  150 \  N

In a physics experiment, two equal-mass carts roll towards each other on a level, low-friction track. One cart rolls rightward a
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option a.

Explanation:

Conservation of momentum :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_1v_2

Where :

m_1, m_2 = masses of object collided

u_1,u_2 = initial velocity before collision

v_1,v_2 = final velocity after collision

We have :

Two equal-mass carts roll towards each other.

m_1=m_2=M

Initial velocity of m_1=u_1=2 m/s

Initial velocity of m_2=u_2=-1 m/s (opposite direction)

Final velocity of m_1=v_1=v (same direction )

Final velocity of m_2=v_2=v  (same direction)

M\times 2 m/s+M(-1 m/s)=Mv+Mv

1 m/s=2v

v = 0.5 m/s

rg135

The speed of the carts after their collision is 0.5 m/s.
