Lolliguncula brevis squid use a form of jet propulsion to swim—they eject water out of jets that can point in different directio

ns, allowing them to change direction quickly. When swimming at a speed of 0.15m/s0.15m/s or greater, they can accelerate at 1.2m/s21.2m/s 2 .
(a) Determine the time interval needed for a squid to increase its speed from 0.15m/s0.15m/s to 0.45m/s0.45m/s.
(b) What other questions can you answer using the data?

Answer:

a) t = 0.25 s, b) x = 0.075 m

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we will use kinematic relationships in one dimension

v = v₀ + a t

in the problem they indicate the initial velocity v₀ = 0.15 m / s, the final velocity v = 0.45 m / s and the acceleration of the squid a = 1.2 m / s²

t = $\frac{v -v_o}{a}$

we calculate

t = $\frac{0.45 - 0.15}{1.2}$

t = 0.25 s

b) We can also find the distance traveled during this acceleration

v² = v₀² + 2a x

x = $\frac{v^2 -v_o^2 }{2a}$

let's calculate

x = $\frac{0.45^2 - 0.15^2 }{2 \ 1.2}$

x = 0.075 m

Many industries are powered via distant power stations. Calculate the current flowing through a 7,300m long 10. copper power lin

Oliga [24]

Answer:

Current, I = 1000 A

Explanation:

It is given that,

Length of the copper wire, l = 7300 m

Resistance of copper line, R = 10 ohms

Magnetic field, B = 0.1 T

$\mu_o=4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ T-m/A$

Resistivity, $\rho=1.72\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m$

We need to find the current flowing the copper wire. Firstly, we need to find the radius of he power line using physical dimensions as :

$R=\rho \dfrac{l}{A}$

$R=\rho \dfrac{l}{\pi r^2}$

$r=\sqrt{\dfrac{\rho l}{R\pi}}$

$r=\sqrt{\dfrac{1.72\times 10^{-8}\times 7300}{10\pi}}$

r = 0.00199 m

or

$r=1.99\times 10^{-3}\ m=2\times 10^{-3}\ m$

The magnetic field on a current carrying wire is given by :

$B=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2\pi r}$

$I=\dfrac{2\pi rB}{\mu_o}$

$I=\dfrac{2\pi \times 0.1\times 2\times 10^{-3}}{4\pi \times 10^{-7}}$

I = 1000 A

So, the current of 1000 A is flowing through the copper wire. Hence, this is the required solution.

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

The results have not been through the rigorous process of peer review

Explanation:

When a scientist conducts a study and obtains results, those results ought to be submitted to a reputable journal where the results would go through the rigorous protocol of peer review.

During this process, the reliability of the data presented is ascertained before the results are published for other scientists to see.

If the results are hurriedly published on the internet, many researchers who come in contact with the work may be fed with inaccurate information.

A 40-kg box is being pushed along a horizontal smooth surface. The pushing force is 15 n directed at an angle of 15Â° below the

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Acceleration of the crate is 0.362 m/s^2.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the box, m = 40 kg

Applied force, F = 15 N

Angle at which the force is applied, $(\theta)$ = 15°

We have to find the magnitude of the acceleration.

Let the acceleration be "a".

FBD is attached with where we can see the horizontal and vertical component of force.

⇒ $F_x=Fcos(\theta)$ and ⇒ $F_y=Fsin (\theta)$

⇒ $F_x=15cos(15)$ ⇒ $F_y=15sin (15)$

⇒ Applying concept of forces.

⇒ $\sum F_x=F_n_e_t =F-f$

⇒ $F_n_e_t =F-f$

⇒ $ma =F-f$ <em> ...Newtons second law Fnet = ma</em>

⇒ $a =\frac{F-f}{m}$

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ $a =\frac{15cos(15)-0}{40}$ <em>...f is the friction which is zero here.</em>

⇒ $a =\frac{14.48}{40}$

⇒ $a=0.362\ ms^-^2$

Magnitude of the acceleration of the crate is 0.362 m/s^2.
