Review Conceptual Example 6 as background for this problem. A car is traveling to the left, which is the negative direction. The

direction of travel remains the same throughout this problem. The car's initial speed is 17.8 m/s, and during a 4.68-second interval, it changes to a final speed of (a)23.5 m/s and (b)15.3 m/s. In each case, find the acceleration (magnitude and algebraic sign).

Answer:

(a) 1.21 m/s² (b) 1.75 m/s²

Explanation:

The initial speed of the car, u = 17.8 m/s

Case 1.

Final speed of the car, v = 23.5 m/s

Time, t = 4.68-s

Acceleration = rate of change of velocity

a=\dfrac{23.5 -17.8 }{4.68}\\\\a=1.21\ m/s^2

Case 2.

Final speed of the car, v = 15.3 m/s

a=\dfrac{23.5 -15.3}{4.68}\\\\a=1.75\ m/s^2

Hence, this is the required solution.

A cylindrical Nickel rod (9 mm diameter, 50 m long) is pulled in tension with a load of 6,283 N. What would the elongation of th
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

0.29 m

Explanation:

9 mm = 0.009 m in diameter

Cross-sectional area A = \pi d^2/4 = \pi * 0.009^2/4 = 6.36\times 10^{-5} m^2

Let the tensile modulus of Nickel E = 170 \times 10^9Pa.

The elongation of the rod can be calculated using the following formula:

\Delta L = \frac{F L}{A E} = \frac{6283*50}{6.36\times 10^{-5} * 170 \times 10^9} = \frac{314150}{1081200} = 0.29 m

Which statement correctly describes the relationship between current, voltage, and resistance? If we
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

According to ohm's law, the relationship between voltage, resistance, and current is that current passing through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage over resistance.

Mathematically,           I = \frac{V}{R}

From this relationship we can see that when we decrease the voltage, and do not change the resistance, the current will also decrease. As current is directly proportional to voltage and inversely proportional to resistance.

The engine starter and a headlight of a car are connected in parallel to the 12.0-V car battery. In this situation, the headligh
stepladder [879]

Answer:

The total power they will consume in series is approximately 2.257 W

Explanation:

The connection arrangement of the headlight and the engine starter = Parallel to the battery

The voltage of the battery, V = 12.0 V

The power at which the headlight operates in parallel, P_{headlight} = 38 W

The power at which the kick starter operates in parallel, P_{kick \ starter} = 2.40 kW

We have;

P = V²/R

Where;

R = The resistance

V = The voltage = 12 V (The voltage is the same in parallel circuit)

For the headlight, we have;

R₁ = V²/P_{headlight}  = 12²/38 = 72/19

R₁ = 72/19 Ω

For the kick starter, we have;

R₂ = V²/P_{kick \ starter} = 12²/2.4 = 60

R₂ = 60 Ω

When the headlight and kick starter are rewired to be in series, we have;

Total resistance, R = R₁ + R₂

Therefore;

R = ((72/19) + 60) Ω = (1212/19) Ω

The current flowing, I = V/R

∴ I = 12 V/(1212/19) Ω = (19/101) A

We note that power, P = I²R

In the series connection, we have;

P_{headlight} = I² × R₁

∴ P_{headlight} = ((19/101) A)² × 72/19 Ω = 1368/10201 W ≈ 0.134 W

The power at which the headlight operates in series, P_{headlight, S} ≈ 0.134 W

P_{kick \ starter} = ((19/101) A)² × 60 Ω = 21660/10201 W ≈ 2.123 W

The power at which the kick starter operates in series, P_{kick \ starter, S} ≈ 2.123 W

The total power they will consume, P_{Total} = P_{headlight, S} + P_{kick \ starter, S}

Therefore;

P_{Total} ≈ 0.134 W + 2.123 W = 2.257 W
