Why is it important that a finger be wet before it is touched to a hot clothes iron?

1 answer:

3 0

Why is it important that your finger be wet if you intend to touch it briefly to a hot clothes iron to test its temperature. If your finger is wet, some of the heat transmitted to your finger will be given to the water which has a high specific heat capacity and also a larger latent heat of vaporization.

A source charge generates an electric field of 4286 N/C at a distance of 2. 5 m. What is the magnitude of the source charge? (Us

svp [43]

The magnitude of the source charge is 3 μC which generates 4286 N/C of the electric field. Option B is correct.

What does Gauss Law state?

It states that the electric flux across any closed surface is directly proportional to the net electric charge enclosed by the surface.

$Q = \dfrac {ER^2}k$

Where,

$E$ = electric force = 4286 N/C

$k$ = Coulomb constant = $8.99 \times 10^9 \rm\ N m ^2 /C ^2$

$Q\\
$ = charges = ?

$r$ = distance of separation = 2.5 m

Put the values in the formula,

$Q = \dfrac {4286\times 2.5 ^2}{8.99 \times 10^9 }\\\\
Q = 3\rm \ \mu C$

Therefore, the magnitude of the source charge is 3 μC.

A centrifuge in a medical research laboratory rotates at an angular speed of 3,650 rev/min. When switched off, it rotates 46.0 t

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

The constant angular acceleration of the centrifuge = -252.84 rad/s²

Explanation:

We will be using the equations of motion for this calculation.

Although, the parameters of this equation of motion will be composed of the angular form of the normal parameters.

First of, we write the given parameters.

w₀ = initial angular velocity = 2πf₀

f₀ = 3650 rev/min = (3650/60) rev/s = 60.83 rev/s

w₀ = 2πf₀ = 2π × 60.83 = 382.38 rad/s

θ = 46 revs = 46 × 2π = 289.14 rad

w = final angular velocity = 0 rad/s (since the centrifuge come rest at the end)

α = ?

Just like v² = u² + 2ay

w² = w₀² + 2αθ

0 = 382.38² + [2α × (289.14)]

578.29α = -146,214.4644

α = (-146,214.4644/578.29)

α = - 252.84 rad/s²

Hope this Helps!!!

A top-fuel dragster starts from rest and has a constant acceleration of 42.0 m/s2. What are (a) the final velocity of the dragst

disa [49]

Answer:

a) Final velocity of the dragster at the end of 1.8 s = 75.6 m/s

b) Final velocity of the dragster at the end of 3.6 s = 151.2 m/s

c) The displacement of the dragster at the end of 1.8 s = 68.04 m

d) The displacement of the dragster at the end of 3.6 s = 272.16 m

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion v = u + at

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration , a = 42 m/s²

Time = 1.8 s

Substituting

v = u + at

v = 0 + 42 x 1.8 = 75.6 m/s

Final velocity of the dragster at the end of 1.8 s = 75.6 m/s

b) We have equation of motion v = u + at

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration , a = 42 m/s²

Time = 3.6 s

Substituting

v = u + at

v = 0 + 42 x 3.6 = 75.6 m/s

Final velocity of the dragster at the end of 3.6 s = 151.2 m/s

c) We have equation of motion s= ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration , a = 42 m/s²

Time = 1.8 s

Substituting

s= ut + 0.5 at²

s = 0 x 1.8 + 0.5 x 42 x 1.8²

s = 68.04 m

The displacement of the dragster at the end of 1.8 s = 68.04 m

d) We have equation of motion s= ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration , a = 42 m/s²

Time = 3.6 s

Substituting

s= ut + 0.5 at²

s = 0 x 3.6 + 0.5 x 42 x 3.6²

s = 272.16 m

The displacement of the dragster at the end of 3.6 s = 272.16 m
