The screwdriver used by an electrician has a plastic or rubber covers on them why

Physics
1 answer:
Nikitich [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Plastic or rubber are regarded as an insulator, and an insulator does not allow the flow of electric current through them, so the handles of screwdrivers as well as pliers that electricians use in repairing is been covered with plastic or rubber so that electric current is prevented to pass through it to the body of electricians to avoid been electrocuted as well as shock.

What is the maximum number of lines per centimeter a diffraction grating can have and produce a complete first-order spectrum fo
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

14,300 lines per cm

Explanation:

Answer:

14,300 cm per line

Explanation:

λ400 nm to 400nm

We can find the maximum number of lines per centimeter, which is reciprocal of the least distance separating two adjacent slits, using the following equation.

mλ = dsin (θ)

In this equation,

m is the order of diffraction.

λ is the wavelength of the incident light.

d is the distance separating the centers of the two slits.

θ is the angle at which the mth order would diffract.

To find the least separation that allows the observation of one complete order of spectrum of the visible region, we use the maximum wavelength of the visible region is 700 nm.

d =  mλ / sin (θ)

As we want the distance d to be the smallest then sin (θ) must be the greatest, and the greatest value of the sin (θ) is 1. For that we also use the longest wavelength because using the smallest wavelength, the longest wavelength would not be diffracted.

d =  mλ / sin (θ)

d =  1 x 700nm / 1

  = 700 nm

So, the least separation that would allow for the possibility of observing complete first order of the visible region spectra is 700 nm, and knowing the least separation we can find the maximum number of lines per cm, which is the reciprocal of the number of lines per cm.

n = 1/d

   = 1 / 700 x 10^{-9}

  = 1, 430,000 lines per m  

  =  14,300 lines per cm

<u>The maximum number of lines per cm, that would allow for the observation of the complete first order visible spectra.</u>

A softball player swings a bat, accelerating it from rest to 2.6 rev/srev/s in a time of 0.20 ss . Approximate the bat as a 0.90
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

\tau=22.13Nm

Explanation:

information we have:

mass: m=0.9kg

lenght: L=0.95m

frequency: f=2.6rev/s

time: t=0.2s

and from the information we have we can calculate the angular velocity \omega. which is defined as

\omega=2\pi f

\omega=2\pi (2.6rev/s)\\\omega=16.336 rev/s

----------------------------

Now, to calculate the torque

We use the formula

\tau=I \alpha

where I  is the moment of inertia and \alpha is the angular acceleration

moment of inertia of a uniform rod about the end of it:

I=\frac{1}{3}mL^2

substituting known values:

I=\frac{1}{3} (0.9kg)(0.95m)^2\\I=0.271kg/m^2

for the torque we also need the acceleration \alpha which is defined as:

\alpha=\frac{\omega}{t}

susbtituting known values:

\alpha=\frac{16.336rev/s}{0.2s} \\\alpha=81.68rev/s^2

and finally we substitute I and  \alpha  into the torque equation \tau=I \alpha:\tau=(0.271kg/m^2)(81.68rev(s^2)\\\tau=22.13Nm
