A 0.500-V potential difference is maintained across a 1.50-m length of tungsten wire that has a cross-sectional area of 0.800 mm

2. What is the current in the wire
Physics

Answer:

5.95 A

Explanation:

From the question

R = ρL/A..................... Equation 1

Where R = resistance of the tungsten wire, ρ = Resistivity of the tungsten wire, L = length, A = cross sectional area.

Given: L = 1.5 m, A = 0.8 mm² = 0.8×10⁻⁶ m, ρ = 5.60×10⁻⁸ Ω.m

Substitute these values into equation 1

R = 1.5(5.60×10⁻⁸)/0.8×10⁻⁶

R = 0.084 Ω.

Finally, using Ohm law,

V = IR

Where V = Voltage, I = current

Make I the subject of the equation

I = V/R............... Equation 2

I = 0.5/0.084

I = 5.95 A

What is the average speed of a kangaroo that hops 60 m in 5 s ?
jok3333 [9.3K]
The formula for average speed is
v_{avg}= \frac{total distance}{total time}
So we can just substitute our data.
v_{avg}= \frac{60}{5}=12 \frac{m}{s} - its the result

Water waves that you might see at the beach move in circular or elliptical paths. What type of mechanical waves are water waves?
vazorg [7]

To find:

Which type of mechanical wave is a water wave?

Explanation:

The water wave is a combination of longitudinal and transverse waves. They are a type of wave called surface waves. The surface waves are the waves that transmit energy in the interface between two mediums.

Final answer:

Thus the correct answer is option C.

A 200 g hockey puck is launched up a metal ramp that is inclined at a 30° angle. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

71.76 m

Explanation:

We will solve this question using the work energy theorem.

The theorem explains that, the change in kinetic energy of a particle between two points is equal to the workdone in moving the particle from the one point to the other.

ΔK.E = W

In the attached free body diagram for the question, the forces acting on the puck are given.

ΔK.E = (final kinetic energy) - (initial kinetic energy)

Final kinetic energy = 0 J (since the puck comes to a stop)

Initial kinetic energy = (1/2)(m)(v²) = (1/2)(0.2)(26²) = 67.6 J

ΔK.E = 0 - 67.6 = - 67.6 J

W = Workdone between the starting and stopping points = (work done by the force of gravity) + (work done by frictional force)

Work done by the force of gravity = - mgh = - (0.2)(9.8)(h) = - 1.96 h

Workdone by the frictional force = F × d

F = μ N

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.30 (kinetic frictional force is the only frictional force that moves a distance of d, the static frictional force doesn't move any distance, so it does no work)

N = normal reaction of the plane surface on the puck = mg cos 30° = (0.2)(9.8)(0.866) = 1.697 N

F = μ N = 0.3 × 1.697 = 0.509 N

where d = distance along the incline that the puck travels.

d = h/sin 30° = 2h (from trigonometric relations)

Workdone by the frictional force = F × d = 0.509 × 2h = 1.02 h

ΔK.E = W = (work done by the force of gravity) + (work done by frictional force)

- 67.6 = - 1.96h + 1.02h

-0.942h = - 67.6

h = 71.76 m
