You want to use a metal bar as a resistor. Its dimensions are 1 by 3 by 13 units. To get the largest resistance from the bar, you should attach leads to the two opposite sides that have dimensions of 1 by 3 units. All configurations give the same resistance. 3 by 13 units. 1 by 13 units. None of the above.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1 by 3 units

Explanation:

The resistance (R) of a conductor is given by the formula:

R = ρL / A

where L is the length of the conductor, ρ is resistivity and A is the cross sectional area.

Let us assume that the metal bar has a resistivity of ρ.

a) If the leads is attached to the two opposite sides that have dimensions of 1 by 3 units.

The length of the bar would be 13 units and the cross sectional area (A) would be = 1 * 3 = 3 units²

R₁ = ρL / A =  ρ(13) / 3 = 13ρ / 3

b) If the leads is attached to the two opposite sides that have dimensions of 3 by 13 units.

The length of the bar would be 1 units and the cross sectional area (A) would be = 3 * 13 = 39 units²

R₂ = ρL / A  = ρ(1) / 39 = ρ / 39

c) If the leads is attached to the two opposite sides that have dimensions of 1 by 13 units.

The length of the bar would be 3 units and the cross sectional area (A) would be = 1 * 13 = 13 units²

R₃ = ρL / A = ρ(3) / 13 = 3ρ / 13

Therefore we can see that the largest resistance is gotten If the leads is attached to the two opposite sides that have dimensions of 1 by 3 units

Young's double slit experiment is one of the quintessential experiments in physics. The availability of low cost lasers in recent years allows us to perform the double slit experiment rather easily in class. Your professor shines a green laser (560 nm) on a double slit with a separation of 0.108 mm. The diffraction pattern shines on the classroom wall 3.0 m away. Calculate the fringe separation between the third order and central fringe.

Answers

Answer:

 y = 4.666 10⁻² m

Explanation:

The constructive interference experiment for the double slit

         d sin sin θ = m λ

Let's use trigonometry to find a sine relationship.

         Tan θ = y / L

          tan θ = sin θ/ cos θ

in these experiments the angles are very small

           tan θ = sin θ

           sin θ = y / L

            [tex]d \frac{y}{L}[/tex] = m λ

              y = [tex]\frac{ m \lambda \ L}{d}[/tex]

we replace the values

              y = 3  560 10⁻⁹ 3.0 / 0.108 10⁻³

              y = 4.666 10⁻² m

The bus lay 40 km at a speed of 72 km / h, and then another 60 km at a speed of 30 m / s. Determine the average speed of the bus along the way.

Answers

Answer:

25 m/s

Explanation:

From the question,

Average speed = Total distance /total time.

S' = D/T........................... Equation 1

D = 40+60 = 100 Km = 100000 m.

T = t₁+t₂

t₁ = (40×3600/72) s = 2000 s

t₂ = 60000/30 = 2000 s

T = 2000+2000 = 4000 s.

SUbstitute the values of T and D into equation 1

S' = 100000/4000

S' = 25 m/s

The parallel plates in a capacitor, with a plate area of 7.90 cm2 and an air-filled separation of 2.70 mm, are charged by a 7.90 V battery. They are then disconnected from the battery and pulled apart (without discharge) to a separation of 8.80 mm. Neglecting fringing, find (a) the potential difference between the plates, (b) the initial stored energy, (c) the final stored energy, and (d) the work required to separate the plates.

Answers

Answer:

A) 26V

Explanation:

(a) the potential difference between the plates

Initial capacitance can be calculated using below expresion

C1= A ε0/ d1

Where d1= distance between = 2.70 mm= 2.70× 10^-3 m

ε0= permittivity of space= 8.85× 10^-12 Fm^-1

A= area of the plate = 7.90 cm2 = 7.90 ×10^-4 m^2

If we substitute the values we

C1= A ε0/ d1

=( 7.90 ×10^-4 × 8.85× 10^-12 )/2.70× 10^-3

C1=2.589 ×10^-12 F= 2.59 pF

Initial charge can be determined using below expresion

q1= C1 × V1

V1=2.589 ×10^-12 F

V1= voltage=7.90 V

If we substitute we have

q1= 2.589 ×10^-12 × 7.90

q1= 20.45×10^-12C

20.45 pC

Final capacitance can be calculated as

C2= A ε0/ d2

d2=8.80 mm= /8.80× 10^-3

7.90 ×10^-4 × 8.85× 10^-12 )/8.80× 10^-3

C1=0.794 ×10^-12 F= 0.794 pF

Final charge= initial charge

q2=q1 (since the battery is disconnected)

q2=q1= 20.45 pC

Final potential difference

V2= q/C2

= 20.45/0.794

= 26V

What is projectile motion?

When a particle is hurled obliquely near the surface of the earth, it travels along a curved path while accelerating continuously in the direction of the planet's center (we assume the particle stays close to the surface of the globe). Such a particle's motion is known as projectile motion, and its route is referred to as a projectile.

In projectile motion total energy is conserved. Hence, when a rock is thrown into the air, the increase in the height would increase the rock’s potential energy, and then the increase in the velocity as it falls to the ground would increase its kinetic energy.

A marching band consists of rows of musicians walking in straight, even lines. When a marching band performs in an event, such as a parade, and must round a curve in the road, the musician on the outside of the curve must walk around the curve in the same amount of time as the musician on the inside of the curve. This motion can be approximated by a disk rotating at a constant rate about an axis perpendicular to its plane. In this case, the axis of rotation is at the inside of the curve. Consider two musicians, Alf and Beth. Beth is four times the distance from the inside of the curve as Alf. Knowing that If Beth travels a distance s during time Δt, how far does Alf travel during the same amount of time= (1/4)s

If Alf moves with speed v, what is Beth's speed?

a. 4v
b. v
c. v/4

Answers

Answer:

A) Total distance Alf travel during the same amount of time = [tex]\frac{1}{4}s[/tex]

B) Speed of Beth = 4v

Explanation:

Given - Consider two musicians, Alf and Beth. Beth is four times the

            distance from the inside of the curve as Alf.

To find - A) Knowing that If Beth travels a distance s during time Δt, how

                   far does Alf travel during the same amount of time.

              B) If Alf moves with speed v, what is Beth's speed?

Proof -

A)

As we know that

Speed = Distance / Time

⇒Distance = Speed ×Time

Now,

Given Speed of Alf = v

⇒Distance of Alf = vt

Also,

Distance of Beth = Speed of beth×time

Given that

Beth is four times the distance from the inside of the curve as Alf. Knowing that If Beth travels a distance s during time Δt, how far does Alf travel during the same amount of time=

⇒Distance of Alf = Speed of Alf×time

                           =  [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] Distance of Beth

⇒Distance of Alf = [tex]\frac{1}{4}s[/tex]

∴ we get

Total distance Alf travel during the same amount of time = [tex]\frac{1}{4}s[/tex]

B)

We know the conversion of angular velocity

ω(Alf) = ω(Beth)

⇒V(Alf)/ r = V(Beth)/4r

⇒V(Alf) = V(Beth) / 4

⇒V(Beth) = 4 V(Alf)

As given, Alf moves with speed v

⇒V(Beth) = 4v

So, the correct option is - a.4v

Temperature, T = 100°C

The latent heat of vaporization, Hv = 2258 J/g.

We need to find the amount of heat needed to vaporize 125 g of liquid water. We can find it as follows :

[tex]Q=mH_v\\\\Q=125\ g\times 2285\ J/g\\\\Q=282250\ J[/tex]

Explanation:

a)Hari drove for 2 hours at a speed of 60km/h and next3 hours at a speed of 70km/h. Calculatehis average speed for the whole journey.b)A police car drives with a constant speed of 70km/h. How long it will take to cover a distance of 135 km? Express the speed in m/s

Answers

Answer:

Remember the relation:

Speed*Time = Distance.

Then first let's find the total distance that Hari drove.

First, he droves 2 hours at 60km/h, then the total distance traveled is:

Distance = 2h*60km/h = 120km

Then he droves 3 hours at 70km/h

The distance here is:

Distance = 3*70km/h = 210km

The total distance traveled is 120km + 210km = 330km

The total time of the travel is 2 hours  + 3 hours  = 5 hours.

The average speed is calculated as:

Av speed = (total distance)/(total time)

Av speed = (330km)/(5 h) = 66km/h

The average speed is 66km/h.

b) We know that the speed is 70km/h, but we want to write this in m/s.

Then we first know that 1 km = 1000m

then:

1 = (1000m/1km)

Then 70km/h = 70 km/h*(1000m/1km) = (70*1000) m/h = 70,000 m/h

Now we know that 1h = 3600 seconds, then:

1 = (1h/3600s)

So we can write:

70,000 m/h = (70,000 m/h)* (1h/3600s) = 70,000/3600 m/s = 0.019 m/s

and the distance is 135 km

Again, we can rewrite this as:

135km = 135km*(1000m/1km) = 135,000m

Then we want to solve:

(0.019m/s)*time = 135,000 m

We want to solve this for the time, then we get:

time = (135,000m)/(0.019m/s) = 7,105,263.2 seconds = 1.93 hours
