The peak value of an alternating current in a 1500-W device is 6.4 A. What is the rms voltage across it

Physics

Answer:

6787.5 V

Explanation:

From the question,

P = IV..................... Equation 1

Where P = Power, I = rms current, V = rms voltage.

make V the subject of the equation

V = P/I................. Equation 2

Given: P = 1500 W, I = 6.4/√2 = 4.525 A

Substitute these values into equation 2

V = 1500(4.525)

V = 6787.5 V

Hence the rms voltage = 6787.5 V

A positive charge of 0.00047 C is 15 m from a negative charge of 0.00089 C. What is the force of one of the charges due to the o
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

16.732 N

Explanation:

Given:

q1 = 0.00047 C = 4.7 x 10^-4 C

q2 = 0.00089 C = 8.9 x 10^-4 C

d = 15 m

k = 9 x 10^9 N m^2 / C^2

To Find:

F = ?

Solution:

F = k x q1 x q2/d^2

F = 9 x 10^9 x 4.7 x 10^-4 x 8.9 x 10^-4 / 15 x 15

F = 9 x 4.7 x 8.9 x 10^9 x 10^-4 x 10^-4 / 225

F = 9 x 4.7 x 8.9 x 10^9 x 10^-8 / 225

F = 9 x 4.7 x 8.9 x 10 / 225

F = 418.3/25

F = 1673.2/100

Therefore, F = 16.732 N

Addition of a metal slab of thickness "a" between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor of plate separation "d" is equivalent
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

K =  \frac{d}{d+a}

Explanation:

The capacitance of a capacitor in terms of the dielectric constant, area of the plate and the distance separating the plate is given by:

C = \frac{\epsilon A}{d}

Where A = Area of the plate

d = distance between the plates

\epsilon = dielectric constant

Case 1:

When a meta slab of thickness, a, is added between the plates of the parallel plate capacitor , the effective separation between the plates becomes d+a

Therefore the capacitance of the capacitor becomes:

  C = \frac{\epsilon A}{d + a} .......................(1)

Case 2:

Introducing a dielectric with dielectric constant K between the plates, the capacitance of the capacitor becomes:

C = \frac{K\epsilon A}{d}.........................(2)

Equating (1) and (2)

\frac{K\epsilon A}{d} = \frac{\epsilon A}{d+a}\\\frac{K}{d} = \frac{1}{d+a} \\K = \frac{d}{d+a}

What is the increase in pressure required to decrease volume of mercury by 0.001%
REY [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using Boyles law

Boyle's law states that, the volume of a given gas is inversely proportional to it's pressure, provided that temperature is constant

V ∝ 1 / P

V = k / P

VP = k

Then,

V_1 • P_1 = V_2 • P_2

So, if we want an increase in pressure that will decrease volume of mercury by 0.001%

Then, let initial volume be V_1 = V

New volume is V_2 = 0.001% of V

V_2 = 0.00001•V

Let initial pressure be P_1 = P

So,

Using the equation above

V_1•P_1 = V_2•P_2

V × P = 0.00001•V × P_2

Make P_2 subject of formula by dividing be 0.00001•V

P_2 = V × P / 0.00001 × V

Then,

P_2 = 100000 P

So, the new pressure has to be 10^5 times of the old pressure

Now, using bulk modulus

Bulk modulus of mercury=2.8x10¹⁰N/m²

bulk modulus = P/(-∆V/V)

-∆V = 0.001% of V

-∆V = 0.00001•V

-∆V = 10^-5•V

-∆V/V = 10^-5

Them,

Bulk modulus = P / (-∆V/V)

2.8 × 10^10 = P / 10^-5

P = 2.8 × 10^10 × 10^-5

P = 2.8 × 10^5 N/m²

A ball is suspended by a lightweight string, as shown in the figure above.
Irina18 [472]

<u>Answer </u>

A. 1 and 2

<u>Explanation </u>

At point 1 we have the highest potential energy and the kinetic energy is zero.

At 2 the potential energy is minimum and the kinetic energy is maximum.

The law of conservation of energy says that energy cannot be created nor destroyed. So, the change in P.E = Change in K.E.

P.E = height × gravity × mass. The height referred here is the perpendicular height. Gravity and mass are constant in this case.

From the diagram it can be seen clearly that the vertical height from 2 to 1 is much greater than from 4 to 3.

This shows that the change in P.E is greater between 1 and 2 and so is kinetic energy.
