Relative motion can best be defined as B<span> the motion of one object as it appears to another object.
An example is when you are in a car the car has the actual motion because it is the one moving but you are also moving because of relative motion.</span>

Determine the length of the tungsten filament in a 100 watt lightbulb given: (i) the resistivity of tungsten is 5.6 × 10−8 Ω · m

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

0.34148 m

Explanation:

$\rho$ = Resistivity of tungsten = $5.6\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega m$

d = Diameter = 0.0018 inch

r = Radius = $\dfrac{r}{2}=\dfrac{0.0018}{2}=0.0009\ in$

$r=0.0009\times 0.0254=0.00002286\ m$

$\alpha$ = Temperature coefficient of tungsten = $0.0045 /^{\circ}C$

Power is given by

$P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}\\\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{120^2}{100}\\\Rightarrow R=144\ \Omega$

We have the equation

$R_2=R_1[1+\alpha(T_2-T_1)]\\\Rightarrow R_1=\dfrac{R_2}{1+\alpha(T_2-T_1)}\\\Rightarrow R_1=\dfrac{144}{1+0.0045(2550-25)}\\\Rightarrow R_1=11.64812\ \Omega$

Resistance is given by

$R=\rho\dfrac{l}{A}\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{RA}{\rho}\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{11.64812\times \pi (0.00002286)^2}{5.6\times 10^{-8}}\\\Rightarrow l=0.34148\ m$

The length of the filament is 0.34148 m

1. Calculate the total heat content of 10 kg of ice at -23°C.?

vesna_86 [32]

To solve the problem, we must know the heat capacity of ice and water.

For Cp = 2090 J/kg C

H = mCpT

H = (10 kg) ( 2090 J/ Kg C) ( -23 C)

H = - 480700 J

For water Cp = 4180 j/kg C

H = (100 kg) ( 4180 J/kg C) ( 60 C)

Why does changing the shape of an object have no effect on the density?

iren [92.7K]

Because the object is still made of the same material
Density is not affected by the weight and shape of an object its affected by how concentrated the atoms are in a given volume

Two bicyclist, originally separated by a distance of 20 miles, are each traveling at a uniform speed of 10 miles per hour toward

Radda [10]

Answer:

D = 25 miles

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we just need to know how much time it took both bicyclists to collide and that will be the same amount of time that the bee flew at 25miles per hour. With those values we could calculate the distance it traveled.

Since both bicyclists collide, we know that Xa=Xb, so:

Xa = V*t = 10*t and Xb = 20 - V*t = 20 - 10*t

10*t = 20 - 10*t Solving for t:

t = 1 hour Now we can calculate the distance for the bee:

D = Vbee * t = 25 * 1 = 25 miles
