The largest value of current that the breaker can carry = Imax=35.4A

Explanation:

Rms value of current= Irms= 25 A

The rms current and the maximum current are related as

Imax= √2 Irms

Imax=√2 (25)

Imax=35.4 A

Thus the maximum current carried by the breaker= 35.4 A

At a baseball game, the batter hit a fly ball at time t = 0 s. The outfielder caught the ball at t = 5.8 s. When was the ball at
Agata [3.3K]
We have the following equation for height:
 h (t) = (1/2) * (a) * t ^ 2 + vo * t + h0
 Where,
 a: acceleration
 vo: initial speed
 h0: initial height.
 The value of the acceleration is:
 a = -g = -9.8 m / s ^ 2
 For t = 0 we have:
 h (0) = (1/2) * (a) * 0 ^ 2 + vo * 0 + h0
 h (0) = h0
 h0 = 0 (reference system equal to zero when the ball is hit).
 For t = 5.8 we have:
 h (5.8) = (1/2) * (- 9.8) * (5.8) ^ 2 + vo * (5.8) + 0
 (1/2) * (- 9.8) * (5.8) ^ 2 + vo * (5.8) + 0 = 0
 vo = (1/2) * (9.8) * (5.8)
 vo = 28.42
 Substituting values we have:
 h (t) = (1/2) * (a) * t ^ 2 + vo * t + h0
 h (t) = (1/2) * (- 9.8) * t ^ 2 + 28.42 * t + 0
 Rewriting:
 h (t) = -4.9 * t ^ 2 + 28.42 * t
 The maximum height occurs when:
 h '(t) = -9.8 * t + 28.42
 -9.8 * t + 28.42 = 0
 t = 28.42 / 9.8
 t = 2.9 seconds.
 Answer:
 
The ball was at maximum elevation when:
 
t = 2.9 seconds.

A 3 kg rock sits on a 0.8 meter ledge. If it is pushed off, how fast will it be going at the bottom?
andrey2020 [161]

As long as it sits on the shelf, its potential energy
relative to the floor is . . .

   Potential energy =      (mass) x (gravity) x (height) =

                                       (3 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (0.8m) = <u>23.52 joules</u> .

If it falls from the shelf and lands on the floor, then it has exactly that
same amount of energy when it hits the floor, only now the 23.52 joules
has changed to kinetic energy.

   Kinetic energy =                                          (1/2) x (mass) x (speed)²

                                                 23.52 joules = (1/2) x (3 kg) x (speed)²

Divide each side by  1.5 kg :     23.52 m²/s² = speed²

Take the square root of each side:    speed = √(23.52 m²/s²) =  <em>4.85 m/s </em> (rounded)

On a 100km track , a train travels the first 30km with a speed of 30km/h . How fast the train travel the next 70 km if the avera
nirvana33 [79]

Solution :-

Given :

Distance 1 = 30 km

Distance 2 = 70 km

We know that speed = distance/time

and, Average speed = total distance/total time taken

When the train acquired a speed of 30 km/hr, the time taken = 30/30 = 1 hour

Average speed = 9distance 1 + distance 2)/(time 1 + time 2)

AS time 2 or t2 is time taken for the second part of the journey of 70 km

⇒ 40 = 100/(1 + t2)

⇒ 40 + 40t2 = 100

⇒ 40t2 = 100 - 40

⇒ 40t2 = 60

⇒ t2 = 60/40

⇒ t2 = 1.5

So, t2 or time taken to travel the second part of the journey is 1.5 hours.

Speed of the second part of the journey = distance 2/time 2

⇒ 70/1.5

⇒ 46.666 km/hr or 46.7 km/hr.

Hence the answer is = 46.666 km/hr or 46.7 km/hr.

Hope it helped u if yes mark me BRAINLIEST!

How does the carbon rod of a cell beomes a positive<br>terminal?​
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

In the middle of a dry cell, is a rod made of carbon. Around the carbon rod is a chemical paste. At the same time, the carbon rod becomes positively charged. When this happens, electrical current flows out of the cell when a conductor is attached between the cell's positive and negative terminals.
