A sled is slowing down at the bottom of a snowy hill.

Physics
1 answer:
Kitty [74]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A sled and its rider are moving at a speed of along a horizontal stretch of snow, as Figure 4.24a illustrates. The snow exerts a kinetic frictional force on the runners of the sled, so the sled slows down and eventually comes to a stop. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.050. What is the displacement x of the sled?

A lamp can work on 50V mains taking 2 amps. What value of resistance must be connected in series with it, so that it can be oper
wolverine [178]
The resistance of the lamp is apparently  50V/2A  =  25 ohms.

When the circuit is fed with more than 50V, we want to add
another resistor in series with the 25-ohm lamp so that the
current through the combination will be 2A.

In order for 200V to cause 2A of current, the total resistance
must be      200V/2A = 100 ohms.

The lamp provides 25 ohms, so we want to add another 75 ohms 
in series with the lamp.  Then the total resistance of the circuit is
(75 + 25) = 100 ohms, and the current is 200V/100 ohms = 2 Amps.

The power delivered by the 200V mains is (200V) x (2A) = 400 watts.

The lamp dissipates ( I² · R ) = (2² · 25 ohms) = 100 watts.

The extra resistor dissipates  ( I² · R) = (2² · 75 ohms) = 300 watts.

Together, they add up to the 400 watts delivered by the mains.

CAUTION:
300 watts is an awful lot of power for a resistor to dissipate !
Those little striped jobbies can't do it. 
It has to be a special 'power resistor'. 
300 watts is even an unusually big power resistor.
If this story actually happened, it would be cheaper, easier,
and safer to get three more of the same kind of lamp, and
connect THOSE in series for 100 ohms.  Then at least the
power would all be going to provide some light, and not just
wasted to heat the room with a big moose resistor that's too
hot to touch.

Induced EMF and Current in a Shrinking LoopShrinking Loop. A circular loop of flexible iron wire has an initial circumference of
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let c be the circumference and r be the radius

c = 2πr , r = c / 2π , area A = π r² = π (c/2π )²  = (1/4π) x c²

flux (ψ) = BA = 1 X 1/4π X c²

dψ/dt = 1/4π x 2c dc/dt =1/2π x c x dc/dt

at t = 8 s

c = 161 - 13 x 8 = 57 cm , dc/dt = 13 cm/s  

e = dψ/dt = (1 / 2π )x 57 x 13 x 10⁻⁴ = 118 x 10⁻⁴ V.

The volume occupied by a sample of gas is 480 mL when the pressure is 115 kPa.What pressure must be applied to the gas to make i
balandron [24]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>84.9 kPa</h2>

Explanation:

Using Boyle's law to find the final pressure

That's

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

where

P1 is the initial pressure

P2 is the final pressure

V1 is the initial volume

V2 is the final volume

Since we are finding the final pressure

P_2 =  \frac{P_1V_1}{V_2}

From the question

P1 = 115 kPa

V1 = 480 mL

V2 = 650 ml

So we have

P_2 =  \frac{115000 \times 480}{650}  = \frac{55200000}{650}  \\  = 84923.076923...

We have the final answer as

<h3>84.9 kPa</h3>

Hope this helps you
