The copper windings of a motor have a resistance of 50 Ω at 20° C when the motor is idle. After the motor has run for several ho
Drupady [299]

Answer:

The temperature of the windings are 60.61 °C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Resistance = 50 Ω

Temperature = 20.0 °C

After the motor has run for several hours the resistance rises to 58Ω.

Step 2: Calculate the new temperature

Formula: R = Rref(1 + α(T-Tref))

⇒with α = temperature coëfficiënt of Cupper at 20 °C = 0.00394/°C

⇒with Tref = reference temperature = 20°C

⇒with T = end temperature = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with R = resistance at end temperature = 58Ω

⇒with Rref = resistance at reference temperature =  50 Ω

==> T = (R/Rref - 1)/α + Tref  

T = (58/50) - 1 )/ 0.00394 + 20

   T = 60.61 °C

The temperature of the windings are 60.61 °C

Consider an object on a rotating disk a distance r from its center, held in place on the disk by static friction. Which of the f
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

A) False

B) False

C) True

D) True

E) True

Explanation:

A) The formula for tangential speed v in term of angular speed ω and radius of rotation r is

v = \omega r

So if the angular speed is constant and 0, the tangential speed is also 0. A) is false

B) False because of the centripetal acceleration:

a_c = \omega^2 r

C) True because of the formula for tangential acceleration in term of angular acceleration α is

a_t = \alpha r

D) True because same as D), if it has angular acceleration, it would have a tangential acceleration. Also from B) the centripetal acceleration will come with time as soon as angular speed is generated by angular acceleration.

E) True and same explanation as from B)

An object is dropped from a height of 50 meters. Ignoring air resistance, how long doe take to hit the ground?
Arte-miy333 [17]

here given that object is dropped from height h = 50 m

So here we can say

initial speed is ZERO

acceleration is due to gravity

now in order to find time to reach the ground we can use kinematics

y = v_i*t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

now plug in all values in it

50 = 0 + \frac{1}{2} \times 9.8(t^2)

t = 3.2 s

so it will take 3.2 s to reach the ground

Consider two massless springs connected in parallel. Springs 1 and 2 have spring constants k1 and k2 and are connected via a thi
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

k1 + k2

Explanation:

Spring 1 has spring constant k1

Spring 2 has spring constant k2

After being applied by the same force, it is clearly mentioned that spring are extended by the same amount i.e. extension of spring 1 is equal to extension of spring 2.

x1 = x2

Since the force exerted to each spring might be different, let's assume F1 for spring 1 and F2 for spring 2. Hence the equations of spring constant for both springs are

k1 = F1/x -> F1 =k1*x

k2 = F2/x -> F2 =k2*x

While F = F1 + F2

Substitute equation of F1 and F2 into the equation of sum of forces

F = F1 + F2

F = k1*x + k2*x

= x(k1 + k2)

Note that this is applicable because both spring have the same extension of x (I repeat, EXTENTION, not length of the spring)

Considering the general equation of spring forces (Hooke's Law) F = kx,

The effective spring constant for the system is k1 + k2
