An alternating-current (AC) source supplies a sinusoidally varying voltage that can be described with the function v of t is equ

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

ω, the angular frequency of the source equals 377 rad/s

Explanation:

From the question, V(t) = V cosωt.

Now, ω = the angular frequency of the sinusoidal wave is given by

ω = 2πf where f = the frequency of the source = 60 Hz

So, the angular frequency of the source ,ω = 2π × the frequency of the source.

So, ω = 2πf

ω = 2π × 60 Hz

ω = 120π rad/s

ω = 376.99 rad/s

ω ≅ 377 rad/s

So, ω, the angular frequency of the source equals 377 rad/s

At a distance of 8 m, the sound intensity of one speaker is 66 dB. If we were to place 3 speakers in a circle of radius 8 m, wha

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

dβ = 70. 77 dβ

Explanation:

The intensity of sound in decibels is

dβ = 10 log I/I₀

let's look for the intensity of this signal

I / I₀ = 10 dβ/10

I / I₀ = 3.981 10⁶

the threshold intensity of sound for humans is I₀ = 1 10⁻¹² W / m²

I = 3.981 10 ⁶ 1 10⁻¹²

I = 3,981 10⁻⁶ W / m²

It is indicated that 3 cornets are placed in the circle, for which total intensity is

I_total - 3 I

I_total = 3 3,981 10⁻⁶

I_total = 11,943 10⁻⁶ W / m²

let's reduce to decibels

dβ = 10 log (11,943 10⁻⁶/1 10⁻¹²)

dβ = 10 7.077

dβ = 70. 77 dβ

n astronaut who weighs 800 N on the surface of the earth lifts off from planet Zuton in a space ship. The free-fall acceleration

ANTONII [103]

Answer: 0.29 kN

Explanation:

We have the following data:

$W_{E}=800 N$ is the weight of the astronaut on Earth

$g_{E}=9.8 m/s^{2}$ is the free fall acceleration due gravity on Earth (directed downwards)

$g_{Z}=3 m/s^{2}$ is the free fall acceleration due gravity on Zuton (directed downwards)

$a=0.5 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration of the spaceship at litoff (directed upwards)

We have to find the <u>magnitude of the force</u> $F$ the space ship exerts on the astronaut.

Firstly, we have to know weight has a direct relation with the mass and the acceleration due gravity. In the case of Earth is:

$W_{E}=mg_{E}$ (1)

Where $m$ is the mass of the atronaut.

Isolating $m$ :

$m=\frac{W_{E}}{g_{E}}$ (2)

$m=\frac{800 N}{9.8 m/s^{2}}$ (3)

$m=81.63 kg$ (4)

Now that we know the mass of the astronaut, we can find its weight on Zuton:

$W_{Z}=mg_{Z}$ (5)

$W_{Z}=(81.63 kg)(3 m/s^{2})$ (6)

$W_{Z}=244.89 N$ (7)

Then, we can calculate the force the space ship exerts on the astronaut by the following equation:

$F-W_{Z}=m.a$ (8)

Isolating $F$ :

$F=m.a+W_{Z}$ (9)

$F=(81.63 kg)(0.5 m/s^{2})+244.89 N$ (10)

$F=285.7 N \frac{1 kN}{1000 N}=0.285 kN$ (11)

Finally:

$F=0.285 kN \approx 0.29 kN$

A cyclist intends to cycle up a 7.70o hill whose vertical height is 126m. Assuming the mass of bicycle plus person is 75.0kg, ca

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

92704.5 J

596.44737 N

Explanation:

m = Mass of person + bicycle = 75 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = Vertical height = 126 m

$\theta$ = Angle = 7.7°

d = Diameter = 0.388 m

Work done against gravity is given by

$P=mgh\\\Rightarrow P=75\times 9.81\times 126\\\Rightarrow P=92704.5\ J$

Work done is 92704.5 J

Force required is given by

$F=\dfrac{mgrsin\theta}{\pi d}\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{75\times 9.81\times sin7.7\times 5.12}{\pi\times 0.388}\\\Rightarrow F=596.44737\ N$

The force is 596.44737 N
