A helicopter flies over the arctic ice pack at a constant altitude, towing an airborne 130-kg laser sensor that measures the thi

ckness of the ice (see the drawing). The helicopter and the sensor both move only in the horizontal direction and have a horizontal acceleration of magnitude 2.57 m/s2. Ignoring air resistance, find the tension in the cable towing the sensor.

Answer:T=1316.21 N

Explanation:

The tension has two components: Vertical and Horizontal. The

horizontal component is ma, the vertical component is mg. Using

Pythagoras theorem, we can find the tension as:

T=((ma)^2 (mg)^2)^(1/2)

So

T=((129*2.84)^2 (129*9.8)^2)^(1/2)

T=1316.21 N

the electric current in a wire is 1.5 A. How many electrons flow past a given point in a time of 2 s?​
34kurt

Answer:

The quantity of electrons that flows past a given point is 3.0 C.

Explanation:

An electric current (I) is the ratio of the quantity of charges (Q) that flows through a point to the time taken (t).

i.e            I = \frac{Q}{t}

It is measured in Ampere's by the use of an ammeter in the laboratory. The quantity of charge that flow through a given point is measured in Coulombs, while time is measured in seconds.

Given that;     I = 1.5A and t = 2s, find Q.

                          Q = It

                             = 1.5 × 2

                             = 3.0 C

The quantity of electrons that flows past a given point is 3.0 C.
