Four copper wires of equal length are connected in series. Their cross-sectional areas are 0.7 cm2 , 2.5 cm2 , 2.2 cm2 , and 3 c

m2 . If a voltage of 145 V is applied to the arrangement, determine the voltage across the 2.5 cm2 wire.

Answer:

22.1 V

Explanation:

We are given that

A_1=0.7 cm^2=0.7\times 10^{-4} m^2

A_2=2.5 cm^2=2.5\times 10^{-4} m^2

A_3=2.2 cm^2=2.2\times 10^{-4} m^2

A_4=3 cm^2=3\times 10^{-4} m^2

Using 1cm^2=10^{-4} m^2

We know that

R=\frac{\rho l}{A}

In series

R=R_1+R_2+R_3+R_4

R=\frac{\rho l}{A_1}+\frac{\rho l}{A_2}+\frac{\rho l}{A_3}+\frac{\rho l}{A_4}

R=\frac{\rho l}{\frac{1}{A_1}+\frac{1}{A_2}+\frac{1}{A_3}+\frac{1}{A_4}}

Substitute the values

R=\rho A(\frac{1}{0.7\times 10^{-4}}+\frac{1}{2.5\times 10^{-4}}+\frac{1}{2.2\times 10^{-4}}+\frac{1}{3\times 10^{-4}})

R=\rho l(2.62\times 10^4)

V=145 V

I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{145}{\rho l(2.62\times 10^4)}

Voltage across the 2.5 square cm wire=IR=I\times \frac{\rho l}{A_2}

Voltage across the 2.5 square cm wire=\frac{145}{\rho l(2.62\times 10^4)}\times \frac{\rho l}{2.5\times 10^{-4}}=22.1 V

Voltage across the 2.5 square cm wire=22.1 V

Two flywheels of negligible mass and different radii are bonded together and rotate about a common axis (see below). The smaller
jekas [21]

Answer:

F_2 = 29.54 N

Explanation:

As we know that the combination is maintained at rest position

So we will take net torque on the system to be ZERO

so we know that

\tau = \vec r \times \vec F

here we will have

\vec r_1 \times F_1 = \vec r_2 \times F_2

so we have

13 \times 50 = 22 \times F_2

so we have

F_2 = \frac{13 \times 50}{22}

F_2 = 29.54 N

Answer:

103.J

Explanation:

Given data

Mass= 5kg

Height= 2.1m

g=9.81m/s^2

Required

The potential energy

PE= mgh

substitute

PE= 5*9.81*2.1

PE=103.J
