Hello, hello? Hey! Hey, wow, day 4. I knew you could do it.

Uh, hey, listen, I may not be around to send you a message tomorrow. *banging* It's-It's been a bad night here for me. Um, I-I'm kinda glad that I recorded my messages for you *clears throat* uh, when I did.

Uh, hey, do me a favor. *banging* Maybe sometime, uh, you could check inside those suits in the back room? *banging* I'm gonna to try to hold out until someone checks. Maybe it won’t be so bad. *bang bang* Uh, I-I-I-I always wondered what was in all those empty heads back there. *chime plays*.

You know...*deep moan* oh, no - *noises followed by a loud screech and static*

We have here what is known as parallel combination of resistors.

Using the relation:

$\frac{1}{ r_{eff} } = \frac{1}{ r_{1} } + \frac{1}{ r_{2} } + \frac{1}{ r_{3} }.. . + \frac{1}{ r_{n} } \\$
And then we can turn take the inverse to get the effective resistance.

Where r is the magnitude of the resistance offered by each resistor.

In this case we have,
(every term has an mho in the end)
$\frac{1}{10000} + \frac{1}{2000} + \frac{1}{1000} \\ \\ = \frac{1}{1000} ( \frac{1}{10} + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{1} ) \\ \\ = \frac{1}{1000} ( \frac{31}{20}) \\ \\ = \frac{31}{20000}$

To ger effective resistance take the inverse:
we get,
$\frac{20000}{31} \: ohm \\ = 645 .16 \: ohm$

The potential difference is of 9V.

So the current flowing using ohm's law,

V = IR

will be, 0.0139 Amperes.

A car travels at a steady 40.0 m/s around a horizontal curve of radius 200 m. What is the minimumcoefficient of static friction

zhenek [66]

Answer:

c. 0.816

Explanation:

Let the mass of car be 'm' and coefficient of static friction be 'μ'.

Given:

Speed of the car (v) = 40.0 m/s

Radius of the curve (R) = 200 m

As the car is making a circular turn, the force acting on it is centripetal force which is given as:

Centripetal force is, $F_c=\frac{mv^2}{R}$

The frictional force is given as:

Friction = Normal force × Coefficient of static friction

$f=\mu N$

As there is no vertical motion, therefore, $N=mg$ . So,

$f=\mu mg$

Now, the centripetal force is provided by the frictional force. Therefore,

Frictional force = Centripetal force

$f=F_c\\\\\mu mg=\frac{mv^2}{R}\\\\\mu=\frac{v^2}{Rg}$

Plug in the given values and solve for 'μ'. This gives,

$\mu = \frac{(40\ m/s)^2}{200\ m\times 9.8\ m/s^2}\\\\\mu=\frac{1600\ m^2/s^2}{1960\ m^2/s^2}\\\\\mu=0.816$

Therefore, option (c) is correct.

A very narrow beam of white light is incident at 40.80° onto the top surface of a rectangular block of flint glass 11.6 cm thick

DerKrebs [107]

Dispersion angle = 0.3875 degrees.
Width at bottom of block = 0.09297 cm
Thickness of rainbow = 0.07038 cm
Snell's law provides the formula that describes the refraction of light. It is:
n1*sin(Î¸1) = n2*sin(Î¸2)
where
n1, n2 = indexes of refraction for the different mediums
Î¸1, Î¸2 = angle of incident rays as measured from the normal to the surface.
Solving for Î¸2, we get
n1*sin(Î¸1) = n2*sin(Î¸2)
n1*sin(Î¸1)/n2 = sin(Î¸2)
asin(n1*sin(Î¸1)/n2) = Î¸2
The index of refraction for air is 1.00029, So let's first calculate the angles of the red and violet rays.
Red:
asin(n1*sin(Î¸1)/n2) = Î¸2
asin(1.00029*sin(40.80)/1.641) = Î¸2
asin(1.00029*0.653420604/1.641) = Î¸2
asin(0.398299876) = Î¸2
23.47193844 = Î¸2
Violet:
asin(n1*sin(Î¸1)/n2) = Î¸2
asin(1.00029*sin(40.80)/1.667) = Î¸2
asin(1.00029*0.653420604/1.667) = Î¸2
asin(0.39208764) = Î¸2
23.08446098 = Î¸2
So the dispersion angle is:
23.47193844 - 23.08446098 = 0.38747746 degrees.
Now to determine the width of the beam at the bottom of the glass block, we need to calculate the difference in the length of the opposite side of two right triangles. Both triangles will have a height of 11.6 cm and one of them will have an angle of 23.47193844 degrees, while the other will have an angle of 23.08446098 degrees. The idea trig function to use will be tangent, where
tan(Î¸) = X/11.6
11.6*tan(Î¸) = X
So for Red:
11.6*tan(Î¸) = X
11.6*tan(23.47193844) = X
11.6*0.434230136 = X
5.037069579 = X
And violet:
11.6*tan(Î¸) = X
11.6*tan(23.08446098) = X
11.6*0.426215635 = X
4.944101361 = X
So the width as measured from the bottom of the block is: 5.037069579 cm - 4.944101361 cm = 0.092968218 cm
The actual width of the beam after it exits the flint glass block will be thinner. The beam will exit at an angle of 40.80 degrees and we need to calculate the length of the sides of a 40.80/49.20/90 right triangle. If you draw the beams, you'll realize that:
cos(Î¸) = X/0.092968218
0.092968218*cos(Î¸) = X
0.092968218*cos(40.80) = X
0.092968218*0.756995056 = X
0.070376481 = X
So the distance between the red and violet rays is 0.07038 cm.
