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}.

The barrel of a rifle has a length of 0.855 m. A bullet leaves the muzzle of a rifle with a speed of 553 m/s. What is the accele
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Acceleration of the bullet will be 1778835.6 m/sec^2      

Explanation:

We have given length of the barrel refile s= 0.855 m

When the bullet leaves the muzzle its velocity is 553 m/sec

So final velocity v = 553 m/sec

Initial velocity will be 0 that is u = 0 m/sec

According to third equation of motion v^2=u^2+2as

553^2=0^2+2\times a\times 0.855

a=178835.6m/sec^2
