a particle is moving along a circular path having a radius of 4 in such that its position as a function of time is given by thet

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

radius of circular path $r=4\ in.$

Position is given by

$\theta =\cos 2t---1$

Differentiate 1 to angular velocity we get

$\frac{\mathrm{d} \theta }{\mathrm{d} t}=\omega =-2\sin 2t----2$

Differentiate 2 to get angular acceleration

$\frac{\mathrm{d} \omega }{\mathrm{d} t}=-2^2\cos 2t ---3$

Net acceleration is the vector summation of tangential and centripetal force

$a_t=\alpha \times r$

$a_t=-4\cos 2t\times 4=-16\cos 2t$

$a_r=\omega ^2\cdot r$

$a_r=(-2\sin 2t)^2\cdot 4$

$a_r=16\sin^2(2t)$

$a_{net}=\sqrt{a_r^2+a_t^2}$

$a_{net}=\sqrt{(16\sin ^2(2t)+(-16\cos 2t)^2}$

$a_{net}=\sqrt{256\cos ^2(2t)+256\sin ^4(2t)}$

How to understand that an inductor behaves like short circuit and capacitor like an open circuit in steady state in a network?

garik1379 [7]

It depends on the steady-state frequency. At zero frequency an inductor behaves like an open circuit. As the frequency increases, the inductor acts more like an open circuit and a capacitator acts more like a short circuit

A series circuit has two 10-ohm bulb is added in a series. Technician A says that the three bulbs will be dimmer than when only

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Technician A is right. The situation will happens even with only two bulbs in series

Explanation:

We must take into account that

1.- All electric device need its nominal voltage to operate

2.-Any and all electric device means an electric load for the source in terms of equation that means any device will implies a drop voltage of V = I*R ( I the flows current and R the resistance of the device)

3.-Nominal voltage for bulbs are specify for houses voltages you find between fase and neutral wires for instance in Venezuela 120 (v).

4.-In a imaginary circuit of only one bulb, the nominal voltage will be applied and the bulb will operates correctly, but when you add another bulb (in series) the nominal voltage will split between the two bulbs ( we could find a situation such as the first bulb work properly but the second one does not). The voltage split according to Ohms law (in such way that the sum of voltage between the terminal of the first bulb plus the voltage at terminals of the second one are equal to nominal voltage.

For that reason all the bulbs are connected in parallel in wich case all of them will operate with the common voltage
