Answer:

How Heavy? More than 2,300,000 limestone and granite blocks were pushed, pulled, and dragged into place on the Great Pyramid. The average weight of a block is about 2.3 metric tons (2.5 tons).

A multimeter in an RL circuit records an rms current of 0.600 A and a 50.0-Hz rms generator voltage of 110 V. A wattmeter shows

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

(a) The impedance in the circuit is $Z=183.33\Omega$ .

(b)The resistance is $R=38.89\Omega$ .

(c) The inuctance is 0.57 H.

Explanation:

(a)

The expression for the impedance is as follows:

$Z=\frac{V_rms}{I_rms}$

Here, $V_rms$ is the rms voltage and $I_rms$ is the rms current.

Put $V_rms=110 V$ and $I_rms=0.600 A$ .

$Z=\frac{110}{0.600}$

$Z=183.33\Omega$

Therefore, the impedance in the circuit is $Z=183.33\Omega$ .

(b)

The expression for the average power is as follows;

$P_{a}=I_{rms}^{2}R$

Here, $P_{a}$ is the average power and R is the resistance.

Calculate the resistance by rearranging the above expression.

$R=\frac{P_{a}}{I_{rms}^{2}}$

Put $P_{a}=14W$ and

$R=\frac{14}{{0.600}^{2}}$

$R=38.89\Omega$

Therefore, the resistance is $R=38.89\Omega$ .

(c)

The expression for the impedance is as follows;

$Z^{2}=R^{2}+X_{L}^{2}$

Here, $X_{L}$ is the inductive reactance.

Put $Z=183.33\Omega$ and $R=38.89\Omega$ .

$(183.33)^{2}=(38.89)^{2}+X_{L}^{2}$

$X_{L}=179.16\Omega$

The expression for the inductive reactance in terms of frequency is as follows;

$X_{L}=2\pi fL$

Here, L is the inductance.

Calculate the inductance by rearranging the above expression.

$L=\frac{X_{L}}{2\pi f}$

Put $X_{L}=179.16\Omega$ and f=50Hz.

$L=\frac{179.16}{2\pi (50)}$

L=0.57 H

Therefore, the inuctance is 0.57 H.

A 100 kg individual consumes 1200 kcal of food energy a day. Calculate

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

(a) 5142.86 m

(b) 317.5 m/s

(c) 49.3 degree C

Explanation:

m = 100 kg, Q = 1200 kcal = 1200 x 1000 x 4.2 = 504 x 10^4 J

(a) Let the altitude be h

Q = m x g x h

504 x 10^4 = 100 x 9.8 x h

h = 5142.86 m

(b) Let v be the speed

Q = 1/2 m v^2

504 x 10^4 = 1/2 x 100 x v^2

v = 317.5 m/s

(c) The temperature of normal human body, T1 = 37 degree C

Let the final temperature is T2.

Q = m x c x (T2 - T1)

504 x 10^4 = 100 x 4.1 x 1000 x (T2 - 37)

T2 = 49.3 degree C

A gamma ray burst produces radiation that has a period of 3.6x10-21 s. What wavelength does this radiation have?

Olin [163]

Answer:

The radiation wavelength is 1.08 X 10⁻¹² m

Explanation:

Frequency is the ratio of speed of photon to its wavelength

F = c/λ

where;

c is the speed of the photon = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ is the wavelength of gamma ray = ?

F is the frequency of the gamma ray = 1/T

T is the period of radiation = 3.6x10⁻²¹ s

$\frac{1}{T} = \frac{c}{\lambda}$

λ = T*C

λ = 3.6x10⁻²¹ * 3 x 10⁸

λ = 1.08 X 10⁻¹² m

Therefore, the radiation wavelength is 1.08 X 10⁻¹² m
