Answer:

Electric current is electric charge in motion. It can take the form of a sudden discharge of static electricity, such as a lightning bolt or a spark between your finger and a ground light switch plate. ... Most electric charge is carried by the electrons and protons within an atom.

An eagle flying at 35 m/s emits a cry whose frequency is 440 Hz. A blackbird is moving in the same direction as the eagle at 10

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

a) $F=475.7Hz$

b) $F'=410.899Hz$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Velocity of eagle $V_1=35m/s$

Frequency of eagle $F_1=440Hz$

Velocity of Black bird $V_2=10m/s$

Speed of sound $s=343m/s$

Generally the equation for Frequency is mathematically given by

$F=f_0(\frac{v-v_2}{v-v_1})$

$F=440(\frac{343-10}{343-35})$

$F=475.7Hz$

Generally the equation for Frequency is mathematically given by

$F'=f_0(\frac{v+v_2}{v+v_1})$

$F'=440(\frac{343+10}{343+35})$

$F'=410.899Hz$

I need help with this

We have here what is known as parallel combination of resistors.

Using the relation:

$\frac{1}{ r_{eff} } = \frac{1}{ r_{1} } + \frac{1}{ r_{2} } + \frac{1}{ r_{3} }.. . + \frac{1}{ r_{n} } \\$
And then we can turn take the inverse to get the effective resistance.

Where r is the magnitude of the resistance offered by each resistor.

In this case we have,
(every term has an mho in the end)
$\frac{1}{10000} + \frac{1}{2000} + \frac{1}{1000} \\ \\ = \frac{1}{1000} ( \frac{1}{10} + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{1} ) \\ \\ = \frac{1}{1000} ( \frac{31}{20}) \\ \\ = \frac{31}{20000}$

To ger effective resistance take the inverse:
we get,
$\frac{20000}{31} \: ohm \\ = 645 .16 \: ohm$

The potential difference is of 9V.

So the current flowing using ohm's law,

V = IR

will be, 0.0139 Amperes.

A fire helicopter carries a 580-kg bucket of water at the end of a 20.0-m long cable. Flying back from a fire at a constant spee

inn [45]

Answer:

F = 41,954 N

Explanation:

given,

mass of bucket = 580 Kg

length of the cable = 20 m

velocity = 40 m/s

angle made = 38.0°

T cos 38° = m g..............(1)

T sin 38^0 = \dfrac{mv^2}{l} + F......(2)

dividing equation (2) by (1)

$tan 38^0 = \dfrac{\dfrac{mv^2}{l} + F}{mg}$

$tan 38^0 = \dfrac{\dfrac{580\times 40^2}{20} + F}{580 \times 9.81}$

$4445.36 = \dfrac{580\times 40^2}{20} + F$

F = -46400 + 4445.36

F = -41,954 N

hence, the force is acting in the opposite direction as assumed.

F = 41,954 N

A sinusoidal wave has the following wave function: y(x,t) = (2.5 m) sin((3.0 m ) x - (24 s-')t + Tt/2] What is the frequency of

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Frequency of the wave is 3.8 hertz.

Explanation:

It is given that, the sinusoidal wave has following wave equation as :

$y(x,t)=(2.5\ m)sin[(3\ m^{-1})x-(24\ s^{-1})t+\pi/2]$

The general equation for the sinusoidal wave is :

$y=A\ sin(kx-\omega t+\phi)$

Where

A is the amplitude

k is the constant

$\omega$ is the angular frequency

$\phi$ is the phase difference

Since, $\omega=24\ s^{-1}$

$2\pi f=24$

$f=\dfrac{24}{2\pi}=3.81\ Hz$

f = 3.8 Hz

So, the frequency of the wave is 3.8 hertz. Hence, this is the required solution.

A proton is released from rest at the origin in a uniform electric field in the positive x direction with magnitude 850 N/C. Wha

Gwar [14]

A proton is released from rest at the origin in a uniform electric field in the positive x direction with magnitude 850 N/C. The change in the electric potential energy of the proton-field system when the proton travels to x = 2.50m is -3.40 × 10⁻¹⁶ J (Option B)

<h3 /><h3>How is the change in electric potential energy of the proton-field system calculated?</h3>

Work done on the proton =Negative of the change in the electric potential energy of the proton field
In the given case, W = -qΔV
-W = qΔV
= qEcosθ
Therefore, work done on the proton = -e(8.50× $10^2$ N/C)(2.5m)(1)
= -3.40× $10^-^1^6$ J
Any change in the potential energy indicates the work done by the proton.
Therefore the positive sign shows that the potential energy increases when the proton does the work.
The negative sign shows that the potential energy decreases when the proton does the work.
