Explanation:

a) I=\displaystyle \sum_{i}m_ir_i^2

where r_i is the distance of the mass m_i from the axis of rotation. When the axis of rotation is placed at the end of the rod, the moment of inertia is due only to one mass. Therefore,

I= mr^2 = (2\:kg)(3\:m)^2 = 18\:kg-m^2

b) When the axis of rotation is placed on the center of the rod, the moment is due to both masses and the radius r is 1.5 m. Therefore,

\displaystyle I= \sum_{i}m_ir_i^2 = 2(2\:kg)(1.5\:m)^2 = 9\:kg-m^2

If pressure is increased from 200 kPa to 300 kPa, and the original volume of gas was 1.5 L, what is the new volume? Assume the t
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:      V2 = 1 l

Explanation:

Data

P1 = 200 kPa

P2 = 300 kPa

V1 = 1.5 l

V2 = ?

Formula

                          P1V1 = P2V2

                          V2 = (P1V1) / P2

                          V2 = (200 x 1.5) / 300

                          V2 = 1 l

Two rigid rods are oriented parallel to each other and to the ground. The rods carry the same current in the same direction. The
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

The current in the rods is 171.26 A.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of rod = 0.85 m

Mass of rod = 0.073 kg

Distance d = 8.2\times10^{-3}\ m

The rods carry the same current in the same direction.

We need to calculate the current

I is the current  through each of the wires then the force per unit length on each of them is

Using formula of force

\dfrac{F}{L}=\dfrac{\mu_{0}I^2}{2\pi d}

\dfrac{mg}{L}=\dfrac{\mu_{0}I^2}{2\pi d}

Where, m = mass of rod

l = length of rod

Put the value into the formula

I^2=\dfrac{mgd}{\mu L}

I^2=\dfrac{0.073\times9.8\times8.2\times10^{-3}}{2\times10^{-7}}

I=\sqrt{29331.4}

I=171.26\ A

Hence, The current in the rods is 171.26 A.

Fiber-optic cables are used widely for internet wiring, data transmission, and surgeries. When light passes through a fiber-opti
Gwar [14]
After one meter, 3.4% of the light is gone ... either soaked up in the fiber
material or escaped from it.  So only  (100 - 3.4) = 96.6% of the light
remains, to go on to the next meter.

After the second meter,  96.6%  of what entered it emerges from it, and
that's  96.6%  of  96.6%  of the original signal that entered the beginning
of the fiber.

==>  After 2 meters, the intensity has dwindled to  (0.966)² of its original level.
It's that exponent of ' 2 ' that corresponds to the number of meters that the light
has traveled through.

==>  After  'x'  meters of fiber, the remaininglight intensity is (0.966) ^x-power
of its original value.

If you shine 1,500 lumens into the front of the fiber, then after 'x' meters of
cable, you'll have
                                                     <em>(1,500) · (0.966)^x</em>
lumens of light remaining.
 
=========================================

The genius engineers in the fiber design industry would not handle it this way.
When they look up the 'attenuation' of the cable in the fiber manufacturer's
catalog, it would say  "15dB per 100 meters".

What does that mean ?    Break it down:  15dB in 100 meters is <u>0.15dB per meter</u>.
Now, watch this:

Up at the top, the problem told us that the loss in 1 meter is  3.4% .  We applied
super high mathematics to that and calculated that  96.6% remains, or  0.966.

Look at this  ==>      10 log(0.966) =  <em><u>-0.15</u>  </em>  <==  loss per meter, in dB .

Armed with this information, the engineer ... calculating the loss in  'x'  meters of
fiber cable, doesn't have to mess with raising numbers to powers.  All he has to
do is say ...

--  0.15 dB loss per meter

--  'x' meters of cable

--  0.15x dB of loss.

If  'x' happens to be, say,  72 meters, then the loss is  (72) (0.15) = 10.8 dB .

and  10 ^ (-10.8/10) = 10 ^ -1.08 = 0.083  =  <em>8.3%</em>  <== <u>That's</u> how much light
he'll have left after 72 meters, and all he had to do was a simple multiplication.

Sorry. Didn't mean to ramble on. But I do stuff like this every day.
