A sheet of metal is 2mm wide 10cm tall and 15cm long. it was 4g. what is the density? <br>​
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Ro = 133 [kg/m³]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must apply the definition of density, which is defined as the relationship between mass and volume.

Ro = m/V

where:

m = mass [kg]

V = volume [m³]

We will convert the units of length to meters and the mass to kilograms.

L = 15 [cm] = 0.15 [m]

t = 2 [mm] = 0.002 [m]

w = 10 [cm] = 0.1 [m]

Now we can find the volume.

V = 0.15*0.002*0.1\\V = 0.00003 [m^{3} ]

And the mass m = 4 [gramm] = 0.004 [kg]

Ro = 0.004/0.00003\\Ro = 133 [kg/m^{3}]

A 4 kW vacuum cleaner is powered by an electric motor whose efficiency is 90%. (Note that the electric motor delivers 4 W of net
RoseWind [281]

Answer:3.6\ kW

Explanation:

Given

Power Supplied [tex]P_{input}=4\ kW[/tex]

Efficiency of the motor \neta =90\%

and \neta =\dfrac{\text{Power output}}{\text{Power input}}

\Rightarrow 0.9=\dfrac{P_{out}}{4}

\Rightarrow P=0.9\times 4

\Rightarrow P=3.6\ kW

So, vacuum cleaner delivers a power of 3.6\ kW

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

51.94°

Explanation:

I_0 = Unpolarized light

I_2 = Light after passing though second filter = 0.19I_0

Polarized light passing through first filter

I_1=\frac{I_0}{2}

Polarized light passing through second filter

I_2=\frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta\\\Rightarrow 0.19I_0=\frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta\\\Rightarrow cos^2\theta=\frac{0.19I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}\\\Rightarrow cos\theta=\sqrt{\frac{0.19I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{\frac{0.19I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{0.19\times 2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{0.38}\\\Rightarrow \theta=51.94^{\circ}

The angle between the two filters is 51.94°
