A complete series circuit consists of a 12.0 V battery, a 4.70 O resistor, and a switch. The internal resistance of the battery

is 0.30 O. The switch is open. What does an ideal voltmeter read when placed across the terminals of the switch?
12.0 V
9.40 V
2.40 V
zero

Answer:

12.0V is correct !!

With the switch open, there's no current in the circuit, and therefore
no voltage drop across any of the dissipative elements (the resistor
or the battery's internal impedance). So the entire battery voltage
appears across the switch, and the voltmeter reads 12.0V .

How is the surface area of an average person is 2m^2 in the chapter pressure

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

We have to show surface area $=2m^2$ ,with few conditions that is by considering Force $=200000\ N$ and Pressure $=100000\ Pa$ to be respectively.

Explanation:

The atmospheric pressure is $=10^{5}\ Pa$ on Earth's surface.

The magnitude of the force exerted on a person by the atmosphere is $=2\times 10^{5}\N (or)\ 200kN\ (or)\ 20\ ton$ .

Now to calculate surface area we can find it from $pressure=\frac{force}{area}$ and re-arranging it to.

$area=\frac{force}{pressure}$

So plugging the values,

Surface area $=\frac{20000}{10000}=2\ m^{2}$

Hence from the above calculations we can say that surface area is $2m^2$ .

So the surface area of an average person can be said to have $2m^2$ , using the concept of pressure and force.

How does the mass affect the speed as it rolls down a slope?

VikaD [51]

As we use the Kinetic energy and the equation is 1/2mv^2, changing its mass will change its speed and its energy. So more mass, more speed more energy. also the gravitational potential energy; mass x gravity x height; more mass and more height more speed as it go down to the slope! Hope it helps!

A thin aluminum rod lies along the x-axis and has current of I = 16.0 A running through it in the +x-direction. The rod is in th

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

a) The magnitude of the magnetic field = 7.1 mT

b) The direction of the magnetic field is the +z direction.

Explanation:

The force, F on a current carrying wire of current I, and length, L, that passes through a magnetic field B at an angle θ to the flow of current is given by

F = (B)(I)(L) sin θ

F/L = (B)(I) sin θ

For this question,

(F/L) = 0.113 N/m

B = ?

I = 16.0 A

θ = 90°

0.113 = B × 16 × sin 90°

B = 0.113/16 = 0.0071 T = 7.1 mT

b) The direction of the magnetic field will be found using the right hand rule.

The right hand rule uses the first three fingers on the right hand (the thumb, the pointing finger and the middle finger) and it predicts correctly that for current carrying wires, the thumb is in the direction the wire is pushed (direction of the force; -y direction), the pointing finger is in the direction the current is flowing (+x direction), and the middle finger is in the direction of the magnetic field (hence, +z direction).

a sphere of diameter 6•0cm is moulded into a thin uniform wire of diameter 0•2mm.calculate the length of the wire in metres

Scilla [17]

The length of the wire is 36 m.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given, Diameter of sphere = 6 cm

We know that, radius can be found by taking the half in the diameter value. So,

$\text { sphere radius, } R=\frac{D}{2}=\frac{6}{2}=3 \mathrm{cm}=3 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{m}$

Similarly,

$\text { wire radius, } r=\frac{0.2}{2}=0.1 \mathrm{mm}=1 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{m}$

We know the below formulas,

$\text {volume of sphere}=\frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times R^{3}$

$\text {volume of wire}=\pi \times r^{2} \times l$

When equating both the equations, we can find length of wire as below, where $\pi=\frac{22}{7}$

$\frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times R^{3}=\pi \times r^{2} \times l$

$\frac{4}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times\left(3 \times 10^{-2}\right)^{3}=\frac{22}{7} \times\left(1 \times 10^{-3}\right)^{2} \times l$

The $\pi$ value gets cancelled as common on both sides, we get

$\frac{4}{3} \times 27 \times 10^{-6}=10^{-6} \times l$

The $10^{-6}$ value gets cancelled as common on both sides, we get

$l=4 \times 9=36 m$

You find a micrometer (a tool used to

MakcuM [25]

Explanation:

A micrometer is a measuring device or an instrument which is used to measure very minute measurements very accurately and precisely. It is mathematical tool used to provide accurate measurement for any mechanical components.

Now, if the micrometer that I have found is badly bent, it would provide faulty or wrong measurements both in terms of precision and accuracy when compared to a high quality meter stick.
