Answer:

The magnitude of the force is F= 3072.9 N.

Explanation:

The expression for the power in terms of force and velocity is as follows;

P=Fv

Here, P is the power, F is the force and v is the velocity.

Rearrange the above expression to get the value of the force.

F=\frac{P}{v}

Convert power from horsepower to watt.

P=75.0 hp

P= (75)(745.7) W

P= 55,927.5 W

Put P= 55,927.5 W and v= 18.2 meter per second in the above expression.

F=\frac{55,927.5}{18.2}

F= 3072.9 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the force is F= 3072.9 N.

Leni [432]

Answer:

P =105.44 W

Explanation:

Given that

D= 10 cm ,L= 60 cm

d= 0.1 cm ,B= 6.4 mT

ρ= 1.7 x 10⁻⁸ Ω · m

The number of turns N

N= L/d

N= 60/0.1 = 600 turns

Length of wire

Lc= πDN

Lc= 3.14 x 0.1 x 600

Lc=188.4 m

The magnetic filed given as

B=\dfrac{\mu_oNI}{L}

I=\dfrac{BL}{\mu_oN}

Now by putting the values

I=\dfrac{0.0064\times 0.6}{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 600}

I=5.09 A

The resistance R given as

R=\dfrac{\rho L_c}{A}

A=\dfrac{\pi}{4}\times d^2

A=\dfrac{\pi}{4}\times (0.1\times 10^{-2})^2

R=\dfrac{1.7\times 10^{-8} \times 188.4}{\dfrac{\pi}{4}\times (0.1\times 10^{-2})^2}

R=4.07 Ω

Power P

p =I²R

P= 5.09² x 4.07 W

P =105.44 W

What resistance must be connected in parallel with a 633-Ω resistor to produce an equivalent resistance of 205 Ω?
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

303 Ω

Explanation:

Given

Represent the resistors with R1, R2 and RT

R1 = 633

RT = 205

Required

Determine R2

Since it's a parallel connection, it can be solved using.

1/Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2

Substitute values for R1 and RT

1/205 = 1/633 + 1/R2

Collect Like Terms

1/R2 = 1/205 - 1/633

Take LCM

1/R2 = (633 - 205)/(205 * 633)

1/R2 = 428/129765

Take reciprocal of both sides

R2 = 129765/428

R2 = 303 --- approximated

A square loop of wire with initial side length 10 cm is placed in a magnetic field of strength 1 T. The field is parallel to the
Fofino [41]

Answer:

2 x 10⁻³ volts

Explanation:

B = magnetic of magnetic field parallel to the axis of loop = 1 T

\frac{dA}{dt} = rate of change of area of the loop = 20 cm²/s = 20 x 10⁻⁴ m²

θ = Angle of the magnetic field with the area vector = 0

E = emf induced in the loop

Induced emf is given as

E = B \frac{dA}{dt}

E = (1) (20 x 10⁻⁴ )

E = 2 x 10⁻³ volts

E = 2 mV

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

A. the internal energy stays the same

Explanation:

From the first law of thermodynamics, "energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.

Based on this first law of thermodynamic, the new internal energy of the gas is the same as the internal energy of the original system.

Therefore, when the partition separating the two halves of the box is removed and the system reaches equilibrium again, the internal energy stays the same.
