Answer:

Basically, the main risk is cardiac arrest, caused by the electric current interfering with the normal operation of the heart muscle. Other possible damages are burns due to the electric energy vaporizing the water inside the cells, and nerve damage caused by excessive current through the nerves.

The main hazards of working with electricity are:

  • Electric shock and burns from contact with live parts.
  • Injury from exposure to arcing, fire from faulty electrical equipment or installations.

A single point charge is placed at the center of an imaginary cube that has 10 cm long edges. The electric flux out of one of th
12345 [234]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Length of each side of the cube, L=10\ cm

The Elecric flux through one of the side of the cube is, \phi =-1 kNm^2/C.

The net flux through a closed surface is defined as the total charge that lie inside the closed surface divided by \epsilon_0

Since Flux is a scalar quantity. It can added to get total flux through the surface.

\phi_{total}=\dfrac{Q_{in}}{\epsilon_0}\\6\times {-1}\times 10^3=\dfrac{Q_{in}}{\epsilon_0}\\\\Q_{in}=-6}\times 10^3\epsilon_0\\Q_{in}=-6}\times 10^3\times8.85\times 10^{-12}\\Q_{in}=-53.1\times10^{-9}\ C

So the the charge at the centre is calculated.

A worker lifts a 20.0-kg bucket of concrete from the ground up to the top of a 25.0-m tall building. The bucket is initially at
yuradex [85]

Answer:

Minimum work = 5060 J

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the bucket (m) = 20.0 kg

Initial speed of the bucket (u) = 0 m/s

Final speed of the bucket (v) = 4.0 m/s

Displacement of the bucket (h) = 25.0 m

Let 'W' be the work done by the worker in lifting the bucket.

So, we know from work-energy theorem that, work done by a force is equal to the change in the mechanical energy of the system.

Change in mechanical energy is equal to the sum of change in potential energy and kinetic energy. Therefore,

\Delta E=\Delta U+\Delta K\\\\\Delta E= mgh+\frac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)

Therefore, the work done by the worker in lifting the bucket is given as:

W=\Delta E\\\\W=mgh+\frac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)

Now, plug in the values given and solve for 'W'. This gives,

W=(20\ kg)(9.8\ m/s^2)(25\ m)+\frac{1}{2}(20\ kg)(4^2-0^2)\ m^2/s^2\\\\W=4900\ J +160\ J\\\\W=5060\ J

Therefore, the minimum work that the worker did in lifting the bucket is 5060 J.

You plan to take a trip to the moon. Since you do not have a traditional spaceship with rockets, you will need to leave the eart
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

v = 3.5 \times 10^5 m/s

Explanation:

At some distance from the Earth the force of attraction due to moon is balanced by the force due to Moon

so we will have

\frac{GM_em}{r^2} = \frac{GM_m}{(d-r)^2}

now we have

\frac{d - r}{r} = \sqrt{\frac{M_m}{M_e}}

\frac{3.844\times 10^8 - r}{r} = \sqrt{\frac{7.36 \times 10^{22}}{5.9742\times 10^{24}}}

so we will have

r = 3.46 \times 10^8 m

Now by energy conservation

-\frac{GM_e}{R_e} - \frac{GM_m}{d - (R_e + R_m)} + \frac{1}{2}v^2 = -\frac{GM_e}{r} - \frac{GM_m}{d - r}

-6.26 \times 10^{8} - 13046 + \frac{1}{2}v^2 = -1.15 \times 10^6 - 1.28 \times 10^5

v = 3.5 \times 10^5 m/s

The nine ring wraiths want to fly from barad-dur to rivendell. rivendell is directly north of barad-dur. the dark tower reports
Katarina [22]
The west constituent of their sequence needs to cancel out 58 mph crosswind. Subsequently a northwest direction is a 45-degree angle up to even with the destination. That is the third point out of the triangle and the right angle is at the destination. The top side is the west constituent of their flight the vertical side is their resultant travel and the hypotenuse is their definite distance flown. Since the 58 mph crosswind was negated by flying northwest, the distance from the beginning to the destination must be the same distance as the west component of their travel. The hypotenuse is square root of twice the side since it has 2 identical sides.

c = sqrt (58^2 + 58^2) = sqrt (6728) = 82.02 
 
Alternative solution:

c = sqrt (2) * 58 = 1.414 * 58 = 82.02

Therefore, they have to fly 82.02 mph

What’s the mathematical relation between them
Gekata [30.6K]

Explanation:

there is no relationship between small mass and the bigger mass, but it can be related with the acceleration. Since Force is constant, acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass. Greater the mass, lesser is the acceleration and vise versa
