The bimetallic strip in a fire alarm is made of two metals with different expansion rates bonded together to form one piece of metal. Typically, the low-expansion side is made of a nickel-iron alloy called Invar, while the high-expansion side is an alloy of copper or nickel. The strip is electrically energized with a low-voltage current. When the strip is heated by fire, the high-expansion side bends the strip toward an electrical contact. When the strip touches that contact, it completes a circuit that triggers the alarm to sound. The width of the gap between the contacts determines the temperature that will set off the alarm.
Answer:
case x py L is in the positive z direction
case y px L the negative z direction
Explanation:
The angular amount is defined by the relation
L = r x p
the bold are vectors, where r is the position vector and p is the linear amount vector.
The module of this vector can be concentrated by the relation
L = r p sin θ
the direction of the vector L can be found by the right-hand rule where the thumb points in the direction of the displacement vector, the fingers extended in the direction of the moment p which is the same direction of speed and the palm points in the direction of the angular momentum L
in the case x py
the thumb is in the x direction, the fingers are extended in the direction and the palm is in the positive z direction
In the case y px
the thumb is in the y direction, the fingers are in the x direction, the palm is in the negative z direction
Answer: Things continue doing what they are doing unless a force is applied to it. Objects have a natural tendency to resist change. This is INERTIA. Heavier objects (objects with more mass) are more difficult to move and stop. Heavier objects (greater mass) resist change more than lighter objects, so true
Explanation:
Pushing a bicycle or a Cadillac, or stopping them once moving. The more massive the object (more inertia) the harder it is to start or stop. The Cadillac has more of a tendency to stay stationary (or continue moving), and resist a change in motion than a bicycle.
A) one ... same current passes through each cpt
Answer:
-0.481 m/s^2
Explanation:
The force equation of this problem is given as:
F - W = ma
where F = upward force holding the clarinet bag
W = downward force (weight of the clarinet)
The mass of the clarinet bag is 3.010 kg, therefore, its weight is:
W = mg
W = 3.010 * 9.8 = 29.498
F = 28.05 N
Therefore:
28.05 - 29.498 = 3.010 * a
-1.448 = 3.010a
=> a = -1.448 / 3.010
a = -0.481 m/s^2
The acceleration of the bag is downward.
