Answer:

3.53 V

Explanation:

Electric charge: The is the rate of flow of electric charge along a conductor.

The S.I unit of electric charge is C.

Mathematically it is expressed as,

Q = It ............................ Equation 1

Where Q = electric charge, I = current, t = time.

I = Q/t.......................... Equation 2

From the question, charge flows through the conductor at the rate of 420 C/mim

Which means in 1 min, 420 C of charge flows through the conductor.

Hence,

Q = 420 C, t = 1 min = 60 seconds

Substitute into equation 2

I = 420/60

I =7 A

Also

P = VI......................... Equation 3

Where P = power, V = potential drop, I = current.

V = P/I................... Equation 4

Note: Power = Energy/time

From the question, P = 742/30 = 24.733 W. and I = 7 A.

Substitute these values into equation 4

V = 24.733/7

V = 3.53 V

Hence the potential drop across the conductor =  3.53 V

tia_tia [17]

1.A) 4.9 m  

AL2006 Ace

The instant it was dropped, the ball had zero speed.


After falling for 1 second, its speed was 9.8 m/s straight down (gravity).


Its AVERAGE speed for that 1 second was (1/2) (0 + 9.8) = 4.9 m/s.


Falling for 1 second at an average speed of 4.9 m/s, is covered 4.9 meters.


ANYTHING you drop does that, if air resistance doesn't hold it back.

A small block with mass 0.0400 kg is moving in the xy-plane. The net force on the block is described by the potentialenergy func
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

A= 148.92  m/s²

Explanation:

Given that

U(x,y) = (6.00  )x²  - (3.75  )y ³

m= 0.04 kg

Now force in the x-direction

Fx= - dU/dx

U(x,y) = (6.00  )x²  - (3.75  )y ³

dU/dx= 12 x

When x=0.4 m

dU/dx= 12 x 0.4 = 4.8

So we can say that

Fx= - 4.8 N

From Newtons law

F= m a

- 4.8 = 0.04 x a

a = -120 m/s²

Acceleration in x direction ,a = -120 m/s²

In y -direction

F= - dU/dy

U(x,y) = (6.00  )x²  - (3.75  )y ³

dU/dy = 0 - 3.75 x 3 y²

When y = 0.56 m

dU/dy = - 3.75 x 3 x 0.56 x 0.56

dU/dy = - 3.52

So we can say that force in y -direction

F= 3.52 N

F= m a'

3.52 = 0.04 x a'

a'=88.2 m/s²

acceleration in y direction is 88.2 m/s²

The resultant acceleration

A=\sqrt{a^2+a'^2}

A=\sqrt{120^2+88.2^2}

A= 148.92  m/s²

A particle is confined to the x-axis between x = 0 and x = 1 nm. The potential energy U = 0 inside this region and U is infinite
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to heisenberg uncertainty Principle

Δx Δp ≥ h / 4π , where Δx  is uncertainty in position , Δp is uncertainty in momentum .

Given

Δx = 1 nm

Δp ≥ h /1nm x  4π

≥ 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ / 10⁻⁹ x  4 π

≥  . 5254 x ⁻²⁵

h / λ ≥  . 5254 x ⁻²⁵

 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ /. 5254 x ⁻²⁵ ≥ λ  

12.56 x 10⁻⁹ ≥ λ  

longest wave length = 12.56 n m

The Heaviside function H is defined by H(t)={0 if t&lt;0, 1 if t≥0 It is used in the study of electric circuits to represent the
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

V(t)= 240V* H(t-5)

Explanation:

The heaviside function is defined as:

H(t) =1 \quad t\geq 0\\H(t) =0 \quad t

so we see that the Heaviside function "switches on" whent=0, and remains switched on when t>0

If we want our heaviside function to switch on when t=5, we need the argument to the heaviside function to be 0 when t=5

Thus we define a function f:

f(t) = H(t-5)

The -5 term inside the heaviside function makes sure to displace the function 5 units to the right.

Now we just need to add a scale up factor of 240 V, because thats the voltage applied after the heaviside function switches on. (H(t-5) =1 when t\geq 5, so it becomes just a 1, which we can safely ignore.)

Therefore our final result is:

V(t)= 240V* H(t-5)

I have made a sketch for you, and added it as attachment.
