Answer:

a = 3.27 m/s²

T = 275 N

Explanation:

Given that:

Mass m₁ = 42.p0 kg

Mass m₂ = 21.0 kg

Consider both masses to be in a whole system, then:

The acceleration can be determined as:

(m_1+m_2)a = g(m_1-m_2)

Making acceleration the subject in the above formula;

a =\dfrac{g(m_1-m_2)}{(m_1+m_2)}

a =\dfrac{9.8(42.0-21.0)}{(42.0+21.0)}

a =\dfrac{9.8(21.0)}{(63.0)}

a =\dfrac{205.8}{(63.0)}

a = 3.27 m/s²

in the string, the tension is calculated using the formula:

T = \dfrac{2m_1m_2g}{(m_1+m_2)}

T = \dfrac{2(42)(21)(9.81)}{(42+21)}

T = \dfrac{17304.84}{63}

T = 274.68 N

T ≅ 275 N

calculate the electric field strength between two parallel plates separated by 0.50 cm, across which is a potential of 12 volts.
Alexxandr [17]
Formula for Electric Field strength , E =  V/d

where V = Voltage in volts, and d = distance of separation in meters.

d = 0.5 cm = 0.005 m,    V = 12 V

E = V/d =  12 / 0.005

E = 2400

Electric Field Strength = 2400 Volts/meter

Copper and aluminum are being considered for a high-voltage transmission line that must carry a current of 60.7 A. The resistanc
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

a) The magnitude JJ of the current density for a copper cable is 5.91 × 10⁵A.m⁻²

b)The mass per unit length \lambdaλ for a copper cable is 0.757kg/m

c)The magnitude J of the current density for an aluminum cable is 3.5 × 10⁵A/m²

d)The mass per unit length \lambdaλ for an aluminum cable is 0.380kg/m

Explanation:

The expression for electric field of conductor is,

E =  \frac{V}{L}

The general equation of voltage is,

V = iR

The expression for current density in term of electric field is,

J = \frac{E}{p}

Substitute (V/L)  for E in the above equation of current density.

J = \frac{V}{pL} ------(1)

Substitute iR for V in equation (1)

J = \frac{iR}{pL} ------(2)

Substitute 1.69 × 10⁸ Ω .m for p

50A for i

0.200Ω.km⁻¹ for (R/L) in eqn (2)

J = \frac{(50) (0.200\times 10^-^3) }{1.69 \times 10^-^8 } \\\\= 5.91 \times 10^5A.m^-^2

The magnitude JJ of the current density for a copper cable is 5.91 × 10⁵A.m⁻²

b) The expression for resistivity of the conductor is,

p = \frac{RA}{L}

A = \frac{pL}{R}

The expression for mass density of copper is,

m = dV

where, V is the density of the copper.

Substitute AL for V in equation of the mass density of copper.

m=d(AL)

m/L = dA

λ is use for (m/L)

substitute,

pL/R for A  and λ is use for (m/L) in the eqn above

\lambda = d\frac{p}{\frac{R}{L} } ------(3)

Substitute 0.200Ω.km⁻¹ for (R/L)

8960kgm⁻³  for d and 1.69 × 10⁸ Ω .m

\lambda = (8960) \frac{(1.69 \times 10^-^8 }{0.200\times 10^-^3} \\\\= 0.757kg.m^-^1

c) Using the equation (2) current density for aluminum cable is,

J = \frac{iR}{pL}

p is the resistivity of the aluminum cable.

Substitute 2.82 × 10⁻⁸Ω.m for p ,

50A for i and 0.200Ω.km⁻¹ for (R/L)

J = \frac{(50)(0.200\times10^-^3) }{2.89\times 10^-^8} \\\\= 3.5 \times10^5A/m^2

The magnitude J of the current density for an aluminum cable is 3.5 × 10⁵A/m²

d) Using the equation (3) mass per unit length for aluminum cable is,

\lambda = d\frac{p}{\frac{R}{L} }

p is the resistivity and is the density of the aluminum cable.

Substitute 0.200Ω.km⁻¹ for (R/L), 2700 for d and 2.82 × 10⁻⁸Ω.m for p

\lambda = (2700) \frac{(2.82 \times 10^-^8) }{(0.200 \times 10^-^3) } \\\\= 0.380kg/m

The mass per unit length \lambdaλ for an aluminum cable is 0.380kg/m

julia-pushkina [17]
These are the characteristics that apply:

 - In a solution taste sour: which is consequence of the H+ concentration.

- Corrode metals: the H+ ion reacts with the metal producing a salt and water

-Produce hydronium ion in solution: as per the Bronsted - Lowry definition an acid is a substance that donates a proton, H+. This proton will react with H2O to form H3O+ (hydronium), as per this scheme: 

HA + H2O --> A(-) + H3O(+)
