A monkey (mass m) is swinging on a vine of length L while carrying a bunch of bananas (a large bunch, mass m/2). His swinging mo

tion has period T and reaches maximum height during the swing h (measured from the bottom of his arc of motion). He accidentally lets go of his bananas when he is at a height of h/2. What happens to the amplitude and period of his oscillation as a result? Explain.

Answer:

Explanation:

The period of oscillation will remain unchanged because the period of oscillation of a pendulum does not depend upon the mass of the bob  . Here monkey along with bunch of banana represents bob .

When the monkey and banana were at height h /2 , they have potential energy as well as kinetic energy . banana is separated from the system . It carried its total energy along with it . But the energy of monkey remained intact with it . So it will keep on moving as usual . So it will attain the same maximum height as before .

Hence the amplitude of oscillation too will remain unchanged .

What is the driving force for (a) heat transfer, (b) electric current, and (c) fluid flow?
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The driving force for (a) heat transfer is temperature difference. (b) electric current is voltage difference. (c) fluid flow is pressure or hydraulic head difference.

Explanation: (a) The driving force for heat transfer is temperature difference. Heat transfer between two mediums is possible only if the two mediums are at different temperature, the higher the temperature, the higher the heat transfer.

(b) The driving force for electric current is voltage difference. Voltage difference is defined as the potential difference in charge between two points in electrical field. For electric current to occur,the voltage must be high.

(c) The driving force for fluid flow is pressure difference or hydraulic head difference. For fluid to move upward,it requires energy.

The average power dissipated in a 47 ω resistor is 2.0 w. what is the peak value i 0 of the ac current in the resistor?
pishuonlain [190]
The average dissipated power in a resistor in a ac circuit is:
P=I_{rms}^2 R
where R is the resistance, and I_{rms} is the root mean square current, defined as
I_{rms} =  \frac{I_0}{\sqrt{2}}
where I_0 is the peak value of the current. Substituting the second formula into the first one, we find
P=( \frac{I_0}{\sqrt{2} } )^2 R =  \frac{1}{2} I_0^2 R
and if we re-arrange this formula and use the data of the problem, we can find the value of the peak current I0:
I_0 =  \sqrt{ \frac{2 P}{R} }=  \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 2.0 W}{47 \Omega} }=0.29 A

Power is the rate at which energy is transformed. A person is limited in the total work he or she can do only by the total energ
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Power is the rate at which energy is transformed.

The SI unit of power is the watt.

Power is the rate at which work is done.

Explanation:

In this question we have to choose the statements related to Power that are True.

In this sense, Power P is the speed with which work W is done. Its unit is Watts (W), being 1 W=\frac{1 Joule}{1 s}.  

Power is mathematically expressed as:

P=\frac{W}{t}

Where t is the time during which work W is performed.

On the other hand, the Work W done by a Force F refers to the release of potential energy from a body that is moved by the application of that force to overcome a resistance along a path. It is a scalar magnitude, and its unit in the International System of Units is the Joule (like energy). Therefore, 1 Joule is the work done by a force of 1 Newton when moving an object, in the direction of the force, along 1 meter (1J=(1N)(1m)=Nm ).

So, according to this explanation, the true statements are:

Power is the rate at which energy is transformed.

The SI unit of power is the watt.

Power is the rate at which work is done.
