Explanation:

given Time Period = 5 Sec

Amplitude = 1m, Wave length = 15 m

using time period = 1/ frequency , Frequency = 1/5 cycles per sec = 0.2 sec = 12 per min

wave speed= Frequency * Wave length

speed = 0.2*15 = 3m/s

The plates of a spherical capacitor have radii 6.25 cm and 15.0 crn. The space between the two spheres is filled with a material
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Capacitance is 0.572×10⁻¹⁰ Farad

Explanation:

Radius = R₁ = 6.25 cm = 6.25×10⁻² m

Radius = R₂ = 15 cm = 15×10⁻² m

Dielectric constant = k = 4.8

Electric constant = ε₀ = 8.854×10⁻¹² F/m

ε/ε₀=k

ε=kε₀

Capacitance\ (C)=\frac{4\pi k\epsilon_0 R_1\times R_2}{R_2-R_1}\\\Rightarrow C=\frac{4\pi 4.8\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}\times 15\times 10^{-2}\times 6.25\times 10^{-2}}{15\times 10^{-2}-6.25\times 10^{-2}}\\\Rightarrow C=0.572\times 10^{-10}\ Farad

∴ Capacitance is 0.572×10⁻¹⁰ Farad

A train travels 90 kilometers in 4 hours, and then 82 kilometers in 1 hours. What is its average speed?
kvasek [131]
Average speed = total distance / total time.

That's 172 km / 5 hr = 34.4 km//hr

An electric ceiling fan is rotating about a fixed axis with an initial angular velocity magnitude of 0.200 rev/s . The magnitude
blagie [28]

Answer:

(A). the angular velocity of fan is 0.380 rev/s.

(B). The number of revolution is 0.059 rad.

(C). The tangential speed of the blade is 0.907 m/s.

(D). The tangential acceleration of the blade is 2.10 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial angular velocity = 0.200 rev/s

Angular acceleration = 0.883 rev/s²

Diameter = 0.760 m

Time = 0.204 s

(A). We need to calculate the angular velocity of fan

Using equation of angular motion

\omega_{f}=\omega_{i}+\alpha t

Put the value into the formula

\omega_{f}=0.200+0.883\times0.204

\omega_{f}=0.380\ rev/s

(B). We need to calculate the number of revolution

Using formula of angular displacement

\theta=\omega_{i}t+\dfrac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

Put the value into the formula

\theta=0.200\times0.204+\dfrac{1}{2}\times0.883\times(0.204)^2

\theta=0.059\ rad

(C). We need to calculate the tangential speed of the blade

Using formula of speed

v=\dfrac{d}{2}\omega_{f}

Put the value into the formula

v=\dfrac{0.760}{2}\times0.380\times2\pi

v=0.907\ m/s

(D). We need to calculate the tangential acceleration of the blade

Using formula of tangential acceleration

a_{t}=\alpha r

Put the value into the formula

a_{t}=0.883\times0.38\times2\pi

a_{t}=2.10\ m/s^2

Hence, (A). the angular velocity of fan is 0.380 rev/s.

(B). The number of revolution is 0.059 rad.

(C). The tangential speed of the blade is 0.907 m/s.

(D). The tangential acceleration of the blade is 2.10 m/s²

A simple machine has efficiency 90%. What does it mean? No machine has 109 efficiency,why?​
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

<em>Efficiency of a machine is 90% this means that the total energy produced to the machine only 90% is useful and given as a output.</em>

<em>Machines are not 100% efficient because some of the work done by a machine is used to overcome friction</em>
