Answer:

False

Explanation:

Think of the electric potential in terms of potential energy. If you imagine a place with high elevation (A) and another one at sea level (B), a ball will roll from high potential to low potential (A-->B).

Everything in our universe wants to reach a lower state of energy if no external force is acted upon it. Every object tends to slow down (friction), a radioactive element dissipates energy (an unstable element releases energy to get to a stable state), water in the clouds comes down to the ground (rain experiencing difference in potential energy).

Electric potential is exactly the same, you just can't see it! It flows from higher voltage (which is a synonym for electric potential) to lower voltage.

b) When the ball is near its maximum height it experiences a brief gust of wind that reduces its horizontal velocity by 2.50 m/s

fomenos

Answer:

The horizontal distance is 0.64 m.

Explanation:

Initial velocity, u =2.5m/s

The maximum horizontal distance is

$R = \frac{u^2}{2g}\\\\R = \frac{2.5\times 2.5}{9.8}\\\\R = 0.64 m$

efrigerant-134a is expanded isentropically from 600 kPa and 70°C at the inlet of a steady-flow turbine to 100 kPa at the outlet.

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Inlet : $v_i=0.0646\frac{m}{s}$

Outlet: $v_o=0.171\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

1) Notation and important concepts

Flow of mass represent "the mass of a substance which passes per unit of time".

Flow rate represent "a measure of the volume of liquid that moves in a certain amount of time"

Specific volume is "the ratio of the substance's volume to its mass. It is the reciprocal of density."

Isentropic process is a "thermodynamic process, in which the entropy of the fluid or gas remains constant".

We know that the flow of mass is given by the following expression

$\dot{m}=\frac{\dot{V}}{\upsilon}$ , where $\dot{V}$ represent the flow rate and $\upsilon$ the specific volume at the pressure and temperature given.

$A_i=0.5m^2$ is the inlet area

$P_i=600Kpa$ pressure at the inlet area

$T_i=70C$ temperature at the inlet area

$A_o=1m^2$ is the outlet area

$P_o=100Kpa$ pressure at the outlet area

$T_o=C$ temperature at the outlet area

$\dot{m}=0.75\frac{kg}{s}$ represent the flow of mass

If we look at the first figure attached Table A-13 we see that the specific volume for the inlet condition is

$\upsilon_i =0.04304\frac{kg}{m^3}$ and the entropy is $h_i=1.0645\frac{KJ}{KgK}=h_o$

With the value of entropy and the outlet pressure of 100 Kpa we can find we specific volume at the outlet condition since w ehave the entropy $h_o=1.0645\frac{KJ}{KgK}$

Since on the table we don't have the exact value we need to interpolate between these two values (see the second figure attached)

$h_1=1.0531\frac{KJ}{KgK} , \upsilon_1=0.22473\frac{kg}{m^3}$

$h_2=1.0829\frac{KJ}{KgK} , \upsilon_2=0.23349\frac{kg}{m^3}$

Our interest value would be given using interpolation like this:

$\upsilon=0.22473+\frac{(0.23349-0.22473)}{(1.0829-1.0531)}(1.0645-1.0531)=0.228\frac{kg}{m^3}$

2) Solution to the problem

Now since we have all the info required to solve the problem we can find the velocities on this way.

We know from the definition of flow of mass that $\dot{m}=\frac{\dot{V}}{\upsilon}$ , but since $\dot{V}=Av$ we have this:

$\dot{m}=\frac{Av}{\upsilon}$

If we solve from the velocity v we have this:

$v=\frac{\upsilon \dot{m}}{A}$ (*)

And now we just need to replace the values into equation (*)

For the inlet case:

$v_i=\frac{\upsilon_i \dot{m}}{A_i}=\frac{0.043069\frac{kg}{m^3}(0.75\frac{kg}{s})}{0.5m^2}=0.0646\frac{m}{s}$

For the oulet case:

$v_o=\frac{\upsilon_o \dot{m}}{A_o}=\frac{0.228\frac{kg}{m^3}(0.75\frac{kg}{s})}{1m^2}=0.171\frac{m}{s}$

Two high-current transmission lines carry currents of 29.0 A and 78.0 A in the same direction and are suspended parallel to each

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

$I_1=29 A$

$I_2=78 A$

$d=38 cm=\frac{38}{100}=0.38 m$

$1 m=100 cm$

a.Length of segment,l=20 m

Magnetic force ,F= $\frac{2\mu_0I_1I_2 l}{4\pi d}$

$\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}=10^{-7}$

Substitute the values

$F=\frac{10^{-7}\times 29\times 78\times 20}{0.38}=0.0119 N$

Hence, the magnetic force exert by each segment on the other=0.0119 N

b.We know that when current carrying in the wires are in same direction then the force will attract to each other.

Hence, the force will be attractive.

A sprinter set a high school record in track and field, running 200.0 m in 20.6 s . what is the average speed of the sprinter in

Paraphin [41]

Answer : The average speed of the sprinter is, 34.95 Km/hr

Solution :

Average velocity : It is defined as the distance traveled by the time taken.

Formula used for average velocity :

$v_{av}=\frac{d}{t}$

where,

$v_{av}$ = average velocity

d = distance traveled = 200 m

t = time taken = 20.6 s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the average velocity of the sprinter.

$v_{av}=\frac{200m}{20.6s}\times \frac{3600}{1000}=34.95Km/hr$

conversion :

(1 Km = 1000m)

(1 hr = 3600 s)

Therefore, the average speed of the sprinter is, 34.95 Km/hr
