Answer:Time constant gets doubled

Explanation:

Given

L-R circuit is given and suppose R and L is the resistance and inductance of the circuit then current is given by

i=i_0\left [ 1-e^{-\frac{t}{\tau }}\right ]

where i_0 is maximum current

i=current at any time

\tau =\frac{L}{R}=time\ constant

\tau '=\frac{2L}{R}=2\tau

thus if inductance is doubled then time constant also gets doubled or twice to its original value.

What is the efficiency of a 0.60 kg basketball that, one dropped from a 2.0 m height (from basket rim) , rebounds to 1.2 m in he
Zinaida [17]
<h2>Let us find the efficiency : Ans = 0.6</h2>

Explanation:

we know :

efficiency = output/input

We also know that :

output = m x g x h

where :

m = mass of body

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height of body from floor

Thus, output = 0.6 x 10 x 1.2 = 7.2J

Similarly ,input = 0.6 x 10 x 2 = 12J

Thus efficiency = 7.2/12 = 0.6

A skater rotates with her arms crossed at an angular speed of 8.0 rad/s and she has a moment of inertia of 100 kg/m2. She extend
solong [7]

Answer:

When her hands extends, her momen of inertia is 4.28\ kg-m^2.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial angular speed, \omega_i=8\ rad/s

Initial moment of inertia, I_1=100\ kg-m^2

Final angular speed, \omega_f=7\ rad/s

Initially, a skater rotates with her arms crossed and finally she extends her arms. The momentum remains conserved. Using the conservation of momentum as :

I_1\omega_1=I_2\omega_2

I_2 is final moment of inertia

I_2=\dfrac{I_1\omega_1}{\omega_2}\\\\I_2=\dfrac{100\times 8}{7}\\\\I_2=114.28\ kg-m^2

So, when her hands extends, her momen of inertia is 4.28\ kg-m^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

Light striking a metal surface causes electrons to be emitted from the metal via the photoelectric effect.In a particular experi
ANEK [815]

The number of electrons emitted from the metal per second increases if the intensity of the incident light is increased.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

As a result of photoelectric effect, electrons are emitted by the light incident on a metal surface. The emitted electrons count and its kinetic energy can measure as the function of light intensity and frequency. Like physicists, at the 20th century beginning, it should be expected that the light wave's energy (its intensity) will be transformed into the kinetic energy of emitted electrons.

In addition, the electrons count emitting from metal must vary with light wave frequency. This frequency relationship was expected because the electric field oscillates due to the light wave and the metal electrons react to different frequencies. In other words, the number of electrons emitted was expected to be frequency dependent and their kinetic energy should be dependent on the intensity (constant wavelength) of light.

Thus, the maximum in kinetic energy of electrons emitted increases with increase in light's frequency and is experimentally independent of light intensity. So, the number of emitted electrons is proportionate to the intensity of the incident light.

A 1.55-kg object hangs in equilibrium at the end of a rope (taken as massless) while a wind pushes the object with a 13.3-n hori
yarga [219]
<span>To answer this problem, we use balancing of forces: x and y components to determine the tension of the rope.


First, the vertical component of tension (Tsin theta) is equal to the weight of the object. 
 T * sin θ = mg =</span> 1.55 * 9.81 <span>
 T * sin θ = 15.2055

Second, the horizontal component of tension (t cos theta) is equal to the force of the wind. 
 T * cos θ =  13.3 

Tan θ = sin  </span>θ / cos θ = 15.2055/13.3 = 1.143
we can find θ that is equal to 48.82. 

T then is equal to 20.20 N
