The current is defined as the ratio between the charge Q flowing through a certain point of a wire and the time interval, \Delta t:
I= \frac{Q}{\Delta t}
First we need to find the net charge flowing at a certain point of the wire in one second, \Delta t=1.0 s. Using I=0.92 A and re-arranging the previous equation, we find
Q=I \Delta t= (0.92 A)(1.0 s)=0.92 C

Now we know that each electron carries a charge of e=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C, so if we divide the charge Q flowing in the wire by the charge of one electron, we find the number of electron flowing in one second:
N= \frac{Q}{q} = \frac{0.92 C}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C}=5.75 \cdot 10^{18}

Which of the following represent units of an electric field? select all that apply
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Volts/Meter

Newtons/Coulomb

Explanation:

Volts/ Meter and Newtons/Coulomb both are same and the units of Electric field intensity or electric field strength.

Electric field strength E is the force per unit charge. It is measured in Newton/Coulomb in SI unit. It is a vector quantity directed in the direction of force.

Mathematically,

           Electric field strength = Force/Charge

                                           E = F / q₀

                                               = Newton / Coulomb = NC⁻¹             1

We know that

                         Newton = Joule/meter            2

Also

                           Volt = Joule/Coulomb             3

So put 3 in 2 we get

                          Newton = (Volt Coulomb)/meter       put in 1

   

                            E =  (Volt Coulomb)/(meter Coulomb)

                               = Volt / meter

Hence

                  Newton / Coulomb = Volt / meter

Two uniform solid spheres of the same size, but different mass, are released from rest simultaneously at the same height on a hi
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

options A and C

Explanation:

Since, the spheres are of same size and rotational speed of the sphere are not dependent on their masses. So, both the sphere will reach the bottom of the at the same time with the same speed. But their kinetic energies are different.

So, options A and C are correct.

1) The period of a simple pendulum depends on B) III. only (the length of the pendulum)

2) The angular acceleration is C) 15.7 rad/s^2

3) The frequency of the oscillation is C) 1.6 Hz

4) The period of vibration is B) 0.6 s

5) The diameter of the nozzle is A) 5.0 mm

6) The force that must be applied is B) 266.7 N

Explanation:

1)

The period of a simple pendulum is given by

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

where

T is the period

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the acceleration of gravity

From the equation, we see that the period of the pendulum depends only on its length and on the acceleration of gravity, while there is no dependence on the mass of the pendulum or on the amplitude of oscillation. Therefore, the correct option is

B) III. only (the length of the pendulum)

2)

The angular acceleration of the rotating disc is given by the equation

\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{t}

where

\omega_f is the final angular velocity

\omega_i is the initial angular velocity

t is the time elapsed

For the compact disc in this problem we have:

\omega_i = 0 (since it starts from rest)

\omega_f = 300 rpm \cdot \frac{2\pi rad/rev}{60 s/min}=31.4 rad/s is the final angular velocity

t = 2 s

Substituting, we find

\alpha = \frac{31.4-0}{2}=15.7 rad/s^2

3)

For a simple harmonic oscillator, the acceleration and the displacement of the system are related by the equation

a=-\omega^2 x

where

a is the acceleration

x is the displacement

\omega is the angular frequency of the system

For the oscillator in this problem, we have the following relationship

a=-100 x

which implies that

\omega^2 = 100

And so

\omega = \sqrt{100}=10 rad/s

Also, the angular frequency is related to the frequency f by

f=\frac{\omega}{2\pi}

Therefore, the frequency of this simple harmonic oscillator is

f=\frac{10}{2\pi}=1.6 Hz

4)

When the mass is hanging on the sping, the weight of the mass is equal to the restoring force on the spring, so we can write

mg=kx

where

m is the mass

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

k is the spring constant

x = 8.0 cm = 0.08 m is the stretching of the spring

We can re-arrange the equation as

\frac{k}{m}=\frac{g}{x}=\frac{9.8}{0.08}=122.5

The angular frequency of the spring is given by

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}=\sqrt{122.5}=11.1 Hz

And therefore, its period is

T=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}=\frac{2\pi}{11.1}=0.6 s

5)

According to the equation of continuity, the volume flow rate must remain constant, so we can write

A_1 v_1 = A_2 v_2

where

A_1 = \pi r_1^2 is the cross-sectional area of the hose, with r_1 = 5 mm being the radius of the hose

v_1 = 4 m/s is the speed of the petrol in the hose

A_2 = \pi r_2^2 is the cross-sectional area of the nozzle, with r_2 being the radius of the nozzle

v_2 = 16 m/s is the speed in the nozzle

Solving for r_2, we find the radius of the nozzle:

\pi r_1^2 v_1 = \pi r_2^2 v_2\\r_2 = r_1 \sqrt{\frac{v_1}{v_2}}=(5)\sqrt{\frac{4}{16}}=2.5 mm

So, the diameter of the nozzle will be

d_2 = 2r_2 = 2(2.5)=5.0 mm

6)

According to the Pascal principle, the pressure on the two pistons is the same, so we can write

\frac{F_1}{A_1}=\frac{F_2}{A_2}

where

F_1 is the force that must be applied to the small piston

A_1 = \pi r_1^2 is the area of the first piston, with r_1= 2 cm being its radius

F_2 = mg = (1500 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=14700 N is the force applied on the bigger piston (the weight of the car)

A_2 = \pi r_2^2 is the area of the bigger piston, with r_2= 15 cm being its radius

Solving for F_1, we find

F_1 = \frac{F_2A_1}{A_2}=\frac{F_2 \pi r_1^2}{\pi r_2^2}=\frac{(14700)(2)^2}{(15)^2}=261 N

So, the closest answer is B) 266.7 N.
