Answer:

<em>0.45 mm</em>

Explanation:

The complete question is

a certain fuse "blows" if the current in it exceeds 1.0 A, at which instant the fuse melts with a current density of 620 A/ cm^2. What is the diameter of the wire in the fuse?

A) 0.45 mm

B) 0.63 mm

C.) 0.68 mm

D) 0.91 mm

Current in the fuse is 1.0 A

Current density of the fuse when it melts is 620 A/cm^2

Area of the wire in the fuse = I/ρ

Where I is the current through the fuse

ρ is the current density of the fuse

Area = 1/620 = 1.613 x 10^-3 cm^2

We know that 10000 cm^2 = 1 m^2, therefore,

1.613 x 10^-3 cm^2 = 1.613 x 10^-7 m^2

Recall that this area of this wire is gotten as

A = \frac{\pi d^{2} }{4}

where d is the diameter of the wire

1.613 x 10^-7 = \frac{3.142* d^{2} }{4}

6.448 x 10^-7 = 3.142 x d^{2}

d^{2} =\sqrt{ 2.05*10^-7}

d = 4.5 x 10^-4 m = <em>0.45 mm</em>

If you were to triple the size of the Earth (R = 3R⊕) and double the mass of the Earth (M = 2M⊕), how much would it change the g
EastWind [94]

Answer:

Decreased by a factor of 4.5

Explanation:

"We have Newton formula for attraction force between 2 objects with mass and a distance between them:

F_G = G\frac{M_1M_2}{R^2}

where G =6.67408 × 10^{-11} m^3/kgs^2 is the gravitational constant on Earth. M_1, M_2 are the masses of the object and Earth itself. and R distance between, or the Earth radius.

So when R is tripled and mass is doubled, we have the following ratio of the new gravity over the old ones:

\frac{F_G}{f_g} = \frac{G\frac{M_1M_2}{R^2}}{G\frac{M_1m_2}{r^2}}

\frac{F_G}{f_g} = \frac{\frac{M_2}{R^2}}{\frac{m_2}{r^2}}

\frac{F_G}{f_g} = \frac{M_2}{R^2}\frac{r^2}{m_2}

\frac{F_G}{f_g} = \frac{M_2}{m_2}(\frac{r}{R})^2

Since M_2 = 2m_2 and r = R/3

\frac{F_G}{f_g} = \frac{2}{3^2} = 2/9 = 1/4.5

So gravity would have been decreased by a factor of 4.5

A 5.00μF parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a 12.0 V battery. After the capacitor is fully charged, the battery is disconn
EastWind [94]

(a) 12.0 V

In this problem, the capacitor is connected to the 12.0 V, until it is fully charged. Considering the capacity of the capacitor, C=5.00 \mu F, the charged stored on the capacitor at the end of the process is

Q=CV=(5.00 \mu F)(12.0 V)=60 \mu C

When the battery is disconnected, the charge on the capacitor remains unchanged. But the capacitance, C, also remains unchanged, since it only depends on the properties of the capacitor (area and distance between the plates), which do not change. Therefore, given the relationship

V=\frac{Q}{C}

and since neither Q nor C change, the voltage V remains the same, 12.0 V.

(b) (i) 24.0 V

In this case, the plate separation is doubled. Let's remind the formula for the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor:

C=\frac{\epsilon_0 \epsilon_r A}{d}

where:

\epsilon_0 is the permittivity of free space

\epsilon_r is the relative permittivity of the material inside the capacitor

A is the area of the plates

d is the separation between the plates

As we said, in this case the plate separation is doubled: d'=2d. This means that the capacitance is halved: C'=\frac{C}{2}. The new voltage across the plate is given by

V'=\frac{Q}{C'}

and since Q (the charge) does not change (the capacitor is now isolated, so the charge cannot flow anywhere), the new voltage is

V'=\frac{Q}{C'}=\frac{Q}{C/2}=2 \frac{Q}{C}=2V

So, the new voltage is

V'=2 (12.0 V)=24.0 V

(c) (ii) 3.0 V

The area of each plate of the capacitor is given by:

A=\pi r^2

where r is the radius of the plate. In this case, the radius is doubled: r'=2r. Therefore, the new area will be

A'=\pi (2r)^2 = 4 \pi r^2 = 4A

While the separation between the plate was unchanged (d); so, the new capacitance will be

C'=\frac{\epsilon_0 \epsilon_r A'}{d}=4\frac{\epsilon_0 \epsilon_r A}{d}=4C

So, the capacitance has increased by a factor 4; therefore, the new voltage is

V'=\frac{Q}{C'}=\frac{Q}{4C}=\frac{1}{4} \frac{Q}{C}=\frac{V}{4}

which means

V'=\frac{12.0 V}{4}=3.0 V

A pump moves water horizontally at a rate of 0.02 m3/s. Upstream of the pump where the pipe diameter is 90 mm, the pressure is 1
victus00 [196]

Answer:

the efficiency of hydralic is 79.88%

Explanation:

convert mm to m

1mm = (1/1000)m

diameter of pipe upsteam

d₁= 90mm= 0.09m

diameter of pipe downsteam

d₂= 30mm = 0.03m

finding velocity of upsteam

recall Q=A₁V₁

V₁=Q/A₁

V₁=3.14m/s

velocity of downsteam

V₂= Q/A₂

V₂= 28.29m/s

mass flow rate

m= ρQ

ρ is the density of water

m = 1000× 0.02

m= 20kg/s

the efficiency of hydralic is 79.88%
