Why a bulb contains coiled wire?

Answer:

The filament is coiled to give it greater length. If the filament was just a piece of straight wire it would only give out a small amount of light. By curling the wire into a coil, a very long length of wire can be stored in a small space. When electricity flows through the coil it can give out much more light.

A spherical balloon has a radius of 8.35 m and is filled with helium. how large a cargo can it lift, assuming that the skin and

rusak2 [61]

Assuming that the densities of the gases are:

density of air, ρ1 = 1.29 kg / m^3

density of helium, ρ2 = 0.179 kg / m^3

Since buoyant force and weight are two forces that are in opposite direction (buoyant force is up while weight is down), therefore equate the two:

buoyant force = weight

m g = (800 + m1) g

where m is the mass of buoyancy, g is gravity and m1 is the maximum mass of the cargo

m = 800 + m1

We know that mass is also expressed as:

m = ρ V

where ρ is density of gas and V is volume of the sphere

Since there are two interacting gases here, therefore m is:

m = (ρ1 – ρ2) V

Therefore:

(ρ1 – ρ2) V = 800 + m1

(1.29 – 0.179) (4π/3) (8.35m)^3 = 800 + m1

2709.33 = 800 + m1

m1 = 1,909.33 kg

A 0.20-kg object is attached to the end of an ideal horizontal spring that has a spring constant of 120 N/m. The simple harmonic

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

A = 6.9 cm

Explanation:

Simple Harmonic Motion

A mass-spring system is a common example of a simple harmonic motion device since it keeps oscillating when the spring is stretched back and forth.

If a mass m is attached to a spring of constant k and they are set to oscillate, the angular frequency of the motion is

$\displaystyle w=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

The equation for the motion of the object is written as a sinusoid:

$\displaystyle X=A\ cos\ w\ t$

Where A is the amplitude.

The instantaneous speed is computed as the derivative of the distance

$\displaystyle X'=V=-A\ w\ sin\ w\ t$

And the maximum speed is

$\displaystyle V_{max}= A\ w$

Solving for the amplitude

$\displaystyle A= \frac{V_{max}}{w}$

Computing w

$\displaystyle w =\sqrt{\frac{120}{0.2}}=24.5\ rad/ s$

Calculating A

$\displaystyle A=\frac{1.7}{24.5}=0.069\ m$

$\displaystyle \boxed{A=6.9\ cm}$

I will mark as the brainliest answer

erastova [34]

Answer:

8) 1500 feet

9) 20 miles

10) 4 Days

11) 2250 miles

12) 1 hour and 5 minutes

13) 27.27miles per hour

Explanation

8) There are 60 seconds in one minute so 60x25=1500 feet

9) 30 minutes is half of an hour so 40 miles ÷ 2 = 20 miles

10) 12x4=48

11) 500 miles x 4.5 hours is 2250 miles

12) Train leaves at 3pm after 60 miles it will be 4 pm and after 5 more miles 4:05 pm so 1 hour and 5 minutes

13)

Elmo = 40 minutes and 5 miles

Bert and Ernie = 45 minutes and 15 miles

Cookie Monster = 20 minutes and 10 miles

Home = 5 minutes abd 20 miles

Average Speed including stops is 27.27 miles per hour

Calculate the mass (in g) of 346 cm³ of polythene. The density of polythene is 0.95 g/cm³. Give your answer to 2 decimal places.

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

M = 328.70g

Explanation:

From the given values:

V = 346 cm³

M of 1 cm³ of Polythene = 0.95g or 95/100g

Solve:

M = (95×346)

= 32870

100

M = 328.70g
