Answer:8 AWG

Explanation: 6 current carrying conductors with 2 - 3 phase branch circuits. Divide 27000 by (480v × 1.732 or square root of 3) and you get 32.46 amps. Now using the code book, divide 32.46 by the adjustment factor of 6 CCC's which is .8 and you get 40.61 amps. Now go to Table 310.16 in the 2020 NEC book and you'll see that in the 90° column that 40.61 amps is above #10 AWG so you size up to #8 AWG.

A projectile is fired upward with an initial speed vo on an airless world. A short time later, it comes back down and has a fina
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

W_{grav} < 0

Explanation:

When a projectile is fired upwards with some initial speed then the it reaches the top of the projectile and then falls back to the ground.

According to the question we need to find the work done by the gravity which is acting downwards for the projectile when it is at a position just about to hit the ground in course of falling down.

As we know that work is given as:

W=F.s\cos\theta

here:

F= force of gravity on the object (which is acting downwards)

s= displacement of the object

  • Here the work done by the gravity at an instant just before the projectile hits the earth will be negative as the displacement is in the direction opposite to the force of gravity.

When a light bulb is connected to a 4.5 V battery, a current of 0.16 A passes through the bulb filament. What is the resistance
larisa [96]

Answer:

R = 28.125 ohms

Explanation:

Given that,

The voltage of a bulb, V = 4.5 V

Current, I = 0.16 A

We need to find the resistance of the filament. Using Ohm's law,

V = IR

Where

R is the resistance of the filament

So,

R=\dfrac{V}{I}\\\\R=\dfrac{4.5}{0.16}\\\\R=28.125\ \Omega

So, the resistance of the filament is equal to 28.125 ohms.

arsen [322]

Explanation:

Geocentric model said that the Earth is at the center of the universe and everything revolves around it. It was considered to be stationary. Galileo proved this model incorrect with the help of his astronomical observations. Some of the key observation that he used to support the heliocentric model were:

1. He proposed the theory that the tides on the Earth occur because of its motion.

2. He observed the phases of the Venus which meant that the Venus revolved around the Sun and not the Earth.

3. He observed other planets and thus noted that they also move around the Sun and not Earth.

4. He discovered the Moons of other planets.

What is the ideal banking angle (in degrees) for a gentle turn of 2.00 km radius on a highway with a 125 km/h speed limit (about
nikitadnepr [17]

An "ideal" banking angle assumes no friction is required to keep a car on the road as it turns. Let <em>θ</em> denote the banking angle, and consult the attached free-body diagram for a car making the turn. There are only 2 relevant forces acting on the car,

• the normal force with magnitude <em>n</em>

• the car's weight with magnitude <em>w</em>

and the net force points toward the center of the circle made by the turn, with centripetal acceleration

<em>a</em> = (125 km/h)² / (2.00 km) = 7812.5 km/h² ≈ 0.603 m/s²

Split up the forces into components acting perpendicular (⟂) and parallel (//) to the banked curve, so that by Newton's second law,

∑ <em>F</em> (⟂) = <em>N</em> + <em>W</em> (⟂) = <em>m</em> <em>a</em> (⟂)

and

∑ <em>F</em> (//) = <em>W</em> (//) = <em>m a</em> (//)

Let the direction of <em>N</em> be the positive perpendicular axis, and down the incline and toward the center of the circle the positive parallel axis. The net force vector and acceleration both make an angle <em>θ</em> with the banked curve, and <em>W</em> makes the same angle with the negative perpendicular axis, so that the equations above reduce to

<em>N</em> - <em>m g</em> cos(<em>θ</em>) = <em>m</em> <em>a</em> sin(<em>θ</em>)

and

<em>m g</em> sin(<em>θ</em>) = <em>m a</em> cos(<em>θ</em>)

The second equation is all we need at this point to find the ideal <em>θ</em>. The mass <em>m</em> cancels out, and we can solve for <em>θ</em> to get

tan(<em>θ</em>) = <em>a</em>/<em>g</em> ≈ (0.603 m/s²) / (9.80 m/s²) ≈ 0.0615

→   <em>θ</em> ≈ 3.52°
