Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

(a) $R_{c}=0.87ohms$

(b) $V_{T}=114.44V$

Explanation:

Part (a)

The total length of copper cord L=86.3 m

The cross sectional area A=1.71×10⁻⁶m²

The resistivity of copper p=1.72×10⁻⁸Ω

Thus the resistance of extension cord is

$R_{c}=p\frac{L}{A}\\R_{c}=(1.72*10^{-8} )\frac{86.3}{1.71*10^{-6}}\\R_{c}=0.87ohms$

Part (b)

The resistance of trimmer Rt=17.9 ohms

When voltage of 120V is applied then the current I is passing through series circuit is

$I=\frac{120V}{R_{c} +R_{T} }\\I=\frac{120V}{0.87 +17.9 } \\I=6.4A$

Thus the voltage across the trimmer is:

$V_{T}=IR_{T}\\V_{T}=(6.4)*(17.9)\\V_{T}=114.44V$

Digiron [165]

Answer:

3.31m/s

Explanation:

Angular momentum for 3s is

$L = L_i_n_i + L_3_s$

$L = 2(11.5kg) + \int\limits^ {3s}_ {0s} {(t^2 + 2)} \, dt$

$L = 23kg+(\frac{t^3}{3} +2t)^ {3s}_ {0s}\\\\L=38kgm/s$

Moment if inertia is

$I = 2ml^2$

$I = 2(11.5)(0.5)^2\\\\I=5.75kgm^2$

Angular speed

ω = L/I

$= 38 / 5.75\\\\=6.61$

The speed of each ball is

V = ωL

$= 6.61\times0.5\\\\= 3.31m/s$

The seafloor is only expanding in one area, which is the Atlantic Ocean. It's just Earth's seafloor recylcing itself.

Finger [1]

1) metal
Even though metalloids are also conductors of heat and electricity, malleable they are not as good as metals.
Metals are very good conductors of electricity and heat. They are also very hard to touch. Noble gases and non metals are the exact opposite in physical and chemical properties. Metals readily react with oxygen.
