Answer:

The mass and gravity.

Explanation:

Depending on how much mass there is in an object, will determine how fast/slow and object moves. This is the same with gravity, if there is a larger slope, there will be more energy, and if there is less there will be less movement.

A 40.0-mH inductor is connected to a North American electrical outlet (ΔVrms = 120 V, f = 60.0 Hz). Assuming the energy stored i

trasher [3.6K]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Inductance, $L=40\ mH=40\times 10^{-3}\ H$

RMS value of voltage, $v_{rms}=120\ V$

Frequency, f = 60 Hz

We need to find the energy stored at t = (1 /185) s. It is assumed that energy stored in the inductor is zero at t = 0. So,

The current flowing through the inductor is given by :

$I_t=\dfrac{V_o}{X_L}\ (sin\ \omega t-\dfrac{\pi}{2})$

$I_t=\dfrac{\sqrt{2} V_{rms}}{X_L}\ (sin\ \omega t-\dfrac{\pi}{2})$

$I_t=\dfrac{120\sqrt{2}}{2\pi f L}\ sin(2\pi f t-\dfrac{\pi}{2})$

$I_t=\dfrac{120\sqrt{2}}{2\pi\times 60\times 40\times 10^{-3}}\ sin(2\pi \times 60\times \dfrac{1}{185})-\dfrac{\pi}{2})$

$I_t=\dfrac{120\sqrt2}{15.07}\ sin(2\pi \times 60\times \dfrac{1}{185}-\dfrac{\pi}{2})$

I = 0.091 A

Energy stored in the inductor is, $U=\dfrac{1}{2}LI^2$

$U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 40\times 10^{-3}\times (0.091)^2$

U = 0.000165 Joules

Hence, this is the required solution.

plz help me with hw A bus of mass 1000 kg moving with a speed of 90km/hr stops after 6 sec by applying brakes then calculate the

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Mass, M = 1000 kg

Speed, v = 90 km/h = 25 m/s

time, t = 6 sec.

Distance:

${ \tt{distance = speed \times time }} \\ { \tt{distance = 25 \times 6}} \\ { \tt{distance = 150 \: m}}$

Force:

${ \tt{force = mass \times acceleration}} \\ { \bf{but \: for \: acceleration : }} \\ from \: second \: equation \: of \: motion : \\ { \bf{s = ut + \frac{1}{2} {at}^{2} }} \\ \\ { \tt{150 = (0 \times 6) + ( \frac{1}{2} \times a \times {6}^{2} ) }} \\ \\ { \tt{acceleration = 8.33 \: {ms}^{ - 2} }} \\ \\ { \tt{force = 1000 \times 8.33}} \\ { \tt{force = 8333.3 \: newtons}}$
