Answer:
Change/ Potential
Explanation:
Work is the amount of energy required to perform an action that is for a force to cause a displacement.
From work-energy theorem, work done by body is equal to change in its kinetic energy.
Work of gravity is basically the potential energy stored in the body due to gravity. From the law of conservation of mechanical energy, increased kinetic energy comes from the change of the potential energy of the stone.
Answer:
6m/s
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Initial velocity = 0m/s
Acceleration = 2m/s²
Distance = 9m
Unknown:
Final velocity = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we use the expression below:
v² = u² + 2as
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
a is the acceleration
s is the distance
v² = 0² + (2 x 2 x 9) = 36
v = 6m/s
Answer:
I = 21.13 mA ≈ 21 mA
Explanation:
If
I₁ = 5 mA
L₁ = L₂ = L
V₁ = V₂ = V
ρ₁ = 1.68*10⁻⁸ Ohm-m
ρ₂ = 1.59*10⁻⁸ Ohm-m
D₁ = D
D₂ = 2D
S₁ = 0.25*π*D²
S₂ = 0.25*π*(2*D)² = π*D²
If we apply the equation
R = ρ*L / S
where (using Ohm's Law):
R = V / I
we have
V / I = ρ*L / S
If V and L are the same
V / L = ρ*I / S
then
(V / L)₁ = (V / L)₂ ⇒ ρ₁*I₁ / S₁ = ρ₂*I₂ / S₂
If
S₁ = 0.25*π*D² and
S₂ = 0.25*π*(2*D)² = π*D²
we have
ρ₁*I₁ / (0.25*π*D²) = ρ₂*I₂ / (π*D²)
⇒ I₂ = 4*ρ₁*I₁ / ρ₂
⇒ I₂ = 4*1.68*10⁻⁸ Ohm-m*5 mA / 1.59*10⁻⁸ Ohm-m
⇒ I₂ = 21.13 mA
Answer:
Yes the body will receive a dangerous shock in both cases.
Explanation:
Different parts of the body has different resistance. skin has the high resistance as compared to other organs of the body.
Dry skin has high resistance than wet skin this is because water is relatively good conductor of electricity, it adds parallel path to the current flow and hence reduces skin resistance.
Dry hands body has approximately 500 kΩ resistance and if 120 V electricity supply current received will be:
I = V/R= 120/ 500*10^3
I= 0.24 mA
Even the current seems is much lower than the safe zone but this is the case in case of DC voltage in case of AC voltage the body will receive a shock this is because the skin pass more current when the voltage is changing i.e. AC.
Similarly for wet hands body resistance is 1 kΩ. so the current through the body seems to be:
I = 120 / 1000
I = 12 mA
The current is higher than safe zone so the body will receive a dangerous shock.
