A large spool in an electrician's workshop has 65 m of insulation-coated wire coiled around it. When the electrician connects a

battery to the ends of the spooled wire, the resulting current is 1.8 A. Some weeks later, after cutting off various lengths of wire for use in repairs, the electrician finds that the spooled wire carries a 2.9-A current when the same battery is connected to it. What is the length of wire remaining on the spool

Answer:

40.34\ \text{m}

Explanation:

L_1 = Length of wire = 65 m

I_1 = Initial current = 1.8 A

I_2 = Final current = 2.9 A

We know

R\propto \dfrac{1}{I}

and

R\propto L

\dfrac{V}{I}\propto L\\\Rightarrow L\propto \dfrac{1}{I}

so

\dfrac{L_2}{L_1}=\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}\\\Rightarrow L_2=\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}L_1\\\Rightarrow L_2=\dfrac{1.8}{2.9}\times 65\\\Rightarrow L_2=40.34\ \text{m}

The length of the wire remaining on the spool is 40.34\ \text{m}.

For a damped simple harmonic oscillator, the block has a mass of 1.2 kg and the spring constant is 9.8 N/m. The damping force is
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a) t=24s

b) number of oscillations= 11

Explanation:

In case of a damped simple harmonic oscillator the equation of motion is

m(d²x/dt²)+b(dx/dt)+kx=0

Therefore on solving the above differential equation we get,

x(t)=A₀e^{\frac{-bt}{2m}}cos(w't+\phi)=A(t)cos(w't+\phi)

where A(t)=A₀e^{\frac{-bt}{2m}}

 A₀ is the amplitude at t=0 and

w' is the angular frequency of damped SHM, which is given by,

w'=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}-\frac{b^{2}}{4m^{2}} }

Now coming to the problem,

Given: m=1.2 kg

           k=9.8 N/m

           b=210 g/s= 0.21 kg/s

           A₀=13 cm

a) A(t)=A₀/8

⇒A₀e^{\frac{-bt}{2m}} =A₀/8

⇒e^{\frac{bt}{2m}}=8

applying logarithm on both sides

⇒\frac{bt}{2m}=ln(8)

⇒t=\frac{2m*ln(8)}{b}

substituting the values

t=\frac{2*1.2*ln(8)}{0.21}=24s(approx)

b) w'=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}-\frac{b^{2}}{4m^{2}} }

w'=\sqrt{\frac{9.8}{1.2}-\frac{0.21^{2}}{4*1.2^{2}}}=2.86s^{-1}

T'=\frac{2\pi}{w'}, where T' is time period of damped SHM

⇒T'=\frac{2\pi}{2.86}=2.2s

let n be number of oscillations made

then, nT'=t

⇒n=\frac{24}{2.2}=11(approx)

List the types of electromagnetic radiation in order from lowest energy photons to highest energy photons.
frutty [35]

radio waves,X-rays,

Explanation:

In order from highest to lowest energy, the sections of the EM spectrum are named: gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet radiation, visible light, infrared radiation, and radio waves. Microwaves (like the ones used in microwave ovens) are a subsection of the radio wave segment of the EM spectrum.
