Answer:

8.02×10⁵ m

Explanation:

Equation for centripetal force:

F = mv²/r

Solving for r:

r = mv²/F

Given:

F = 8955 N

m = 1160 kg

v = 7446 m/s

r = (1160 kg) (7446 m/s)² / 8955 N

r = 7.182×10⁶ m

The height above the surface is:

h = 7.182×10⁶ m − 6.38×10⁶ m

h = 0.802×10⁶ m

h = 8.02×10⁵ m

Maximum voltage produced in an AC generator completing 60 cycles in 30 sec is 250V. (a) What is period of armature? (b) How many
Vlada [557]

Answer:

a. 2 Hz b. 0.5 cycles c . 0 V

Explanation:

a. What is period of armature?

Since it takes the armature 30 seconds to complete 60 cycles, and frequency f = number of cycles/ time = 60 cycles/ 30 s = 2 cycles/ s = 2 Hz

b. How many cycles are completed in T/2 sec?

The period, T = 1/f = 1/2 Hz = 0.5 s.

So, it takes 0.5 s to complete 1 cycles. At t = T/2 = 0.5/2 = 0.25 s,

Since it takes 0.5 s to complete 1 cycle, then the number of cycles it completes in 0.25 s is 0.25/0.5 = 0.5 cycles.

c. What is the maximum emf produced when the armature completes 180° rotation?

Since the emf E = E₀sinθ and when θ = 180°, sinθ = sin180° = 0

E = E₀ × 0 = 0

E = 0

So, at 180° rotation, the maximum emf produced is 0 V.

Two 5.0 mm × 5.0 mm electrodes are held 0.10 mm apart and are attached to 7.5 V battery. Without disconnecting the battery, a 0.
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

A) V = 7.5 V

B) E = 75,000 V/m

C) Q = 16.6 pC

D) V = 7.5 V

E) E = 24,000 V/m

F) Q = 52 pC

Explanation:

Given:

- The Area of plate A = ( 5 x 5 ) mm^2

- The distance between plates d = 0.10 mm

- The thickness of Mylar added t = 0.10 mm

- Voltage supplied by battery V = 7.5 V

Solution:

A) What is the capacitor's potential difference before the Mylar is inserted?

- The potential difference across the two plates is equal to the voltage provided by the battery V = 7.5 V which remains constant throughout.

B) What is the capacitor's electric field before the Mylar is inserted?

- The Electric Field E between the capacitor plates is given by:

                                E = V / k*d

k = 1 (air)                  E = 7.5 / 0.10*10^-3

                                E = 75,000 V/m

C) What is the capacitor's charge Q before the Mylar is inserted?

                                C = k*A*ε / d

k = 1 (air)                   C = ( 0.005^2 * 8.85*10^-12 ) / 0.0001

                                C = 2.213 pF

                                Q = C*V

                                Q = 7.5*(2.213)

                                Q = 16.6 pC

D) What is the capacitor's potential difference after the Mylar is inserted?

- The potential difference across the two plates is equal to the voltage provided by the battery V = 7.5 V which remains constant throughout.

E) What is the capacitor's electric field after the Mylar is inserted?    

- The Electric Field E between the capacitor plates is given by:

                                E = V / k*d

k = 3.13                     E = 7.5 / (3.13)0.10*10^-3

                                E = 24,000 V/m              

F) What is the capacitor's charge after the Mylar is inserted?      

                                C = k*A*ε / d

k = 3.13                    C = 3.13*( 0.005^2 * 8.85*10^-12 ) / 0.0001

                                C = 6.927 pF

                                Q = C*V

                                Q = 7.5*(6.927)

                                Q = 52 pC

Select the areas that would receive snowfall because of the lake effect.
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

- Grand Marais

- Two Harbors

- Duluth

Explanation:

The places that would would get snowfall because of the lake effect are Grand Marais, Two Harbors, and Duluth. The reason for this is that these three places are located right on the shores of the Lake Superior. This lake is one of the biggest lakes in the world. It has enormous amount of water in it, having big impact on the regional climate because of that. The water from this lake creates a lot of humidity in the air, and there's a lot of evaporation as well, both causing the formation of clouds, and when it is cold enough, instead of precipitation, the region gets large amounts of snowfall.

La luz pasa del medio A al medio B formando un ángulo de 35° con la frontera horizontal entre ambos. Si el ángulo de refracción
zaharov [31]

Answer:

Índice de refracción entre los dos medios = 1,43

Refractive index between the two media = 1.43

Explanation:

El índice de refracción entre dos medios se explica mejor entendiendo primero la refracción.

Cuando las olas se mueven de un medio a otro, a menudo experimentan un cambio de dirección con respecto al medio en el que viajan.

Por lo tanto, el índice de refracción se expresa como el seno del ángulo de incidencia dividido por el seno del ángulo de refracción.

El seno del ángulo de incidencia y la refracción utilizados en esta fórmula de índice de refracción se miden respectivamente con respecto a la vertical.

En esta pregunta Ángulo de incidencia = 35° a la horizontal = (90° - 35°) a la vertical = 55° a la vertical.

Ángulo de refracción = 35°

Índice de refracción entre los dos medios

= (Sin 55°) ÷ (Sin 35°)

= 0.8192 ÷ 0.5736

= 1.428 = 1.43 a 2 d.p.

¡¡¡Espero que esto ayude!!!

English Translation

The light passes from medium A to medium B at an angle of 35 ° with the horizontal border between the two. If the angle of refraction is also 35 °, what is the relative refractive index between the two media?

Solution

The refractive index between two media is best explained by first understanding refraction.

When waves move from one medium to another, they often experience a change in direction with respect to the medium in which they are travelling.

Hence, refractive index is expressed as the sine of angle of incidence dibided by the sine of angle of refraction.

The sine of angle of incidence and refraction used in this refractive index formula are both respectively measured with respect to the vertical.

In this question,

Angle of incidence = 35° to the horizontal = (90° - 35°) to the vertical = 55° to the vertical.

Angle of refraction = 35°

Refractive index between the two media

= (Sin 55°) ÷ (Sin 35°)

= 0.8192 ÷ 0.5736

= 1.428 = 1.43 to 2 d.p.

Hope this Helps!!!

Reika [66]

Complete question:

The coordinate of a particle in meters is given by x(t)=1 6t- 3.0t³ , where the time tis in seconds. The

particle is momentarily at rest at t is:

Select one:

a. 9.3s

b. 1.3s

C. 0.75s

d.5.3s

e. 7.3s

​

Answer:

b. 1.3 s

Explanation:

Given;

position of the particle, x(t)=1 6t- 3.0t³

when the particle is at rest, the velocity is zero.

velocity = dx/dt

dx /dt = 16 - 9t²

16 - 9t² = 0

9t² = 16

t² = 16 /9

t = √(16 / 9)

t = 4/3

t = 1.3 s

Therefore, the particle is momentarily at rest at t = 1.3 s
