Sketch the circuit labeling the meter and bulb as two separate resistors connected in parallel to the voltage source. Then show

mathematically that if the meter’s internal resistance is 1000 times higher than the bulb’s resistance, the current in the meter is 1000 times less than through the bulb. This shows why measuring voltage with a multimeter does not affect the circuit.

Answer:

Show attached picture

Explanation:

Let's call V the voltage provided by the battery in the circuit. M is the multimeter (let's call R_M its internal resistance) and R indicates the resistance of the light bulb.

We know that the meter's internal resistance is 1000 times higher than the bulb's resistance:

R_M = 1000 R (1)

Both  the meter and the bulb are connected in parallel to the battery, so they both have same potential difference at their terminals:

V_M = V_R

Using Ohm's law, V=RI, we can rewrite the previous equation as:

R_M I_M = R I_R

where

I_M is the current in the meter

I_R is the current in the bulb

Using (1), this equation becomes

(1000 R) I_M = R I_R \rightarrow I_M = \frac{I_R}{1000}

so, the current in the meter is 1000 times less than through the bulb.

A child of mass m is at the edge of a merry-go-round of diameter d. When the merry-go-round is rotating with angular acceleratio
dem82 [27]

Answer:

The torque on the child is now the same, τ.

Explanation:

  • It can be showed that the external torque applied by a net force on a rigid body, is equal to the product of the moment of inertia of the body with respect to the axis of rotation, times the angular acceleration.
  • In this case, as the movement of the child doesn't create an external torque, the torque must remain the same.
  • The moment of inertia is the sum of the moment of inertia of the merry-go-round (the same that for a solid disk) plus the product of  the mass of the child times the square of the distance to the center.
  • When the child is standing at the edge of the merry-go-round, the moment of inertia is as follows:

       I_{to} = I_{d} + m*r^{2}  = m*\frac{r^{2}}{2} +  m*r^{2} = \frac{3}{2}*  m*r^{2} (1)

  • So, τ = 3/2*m*r²*α (2)
  • When the child moves to a position half way between the center and the edge of the merry-go-round, the moment of inertia of the child decreases, as the distance to the center is less than before, as follows:

       I_{t} = I_{d} + m*\frac{r^{2}}{4}   = m*\frac{r^{2}}{2} + m*\frac{r^{2}}{4}  = \frac{3}{4}*  m*r^{2} (3)

  • Since the angular acceleration increases from α to 2*α, we can write the torque expression as follows:

       τ = 3/4*m*r² * (2α) = 3/2*m*r²

        same result than in (2), so the torque remains the same.

A long thin uniform rod of length 1.50 m is to be suspended from a frictionless pivot located at some point along the rod so tha
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

0.087 m

Explanation:

Length of the rod, L = 1.5 m

Let the mass of the rod is m and d is the distance between the pivot point and the centre of mass.

time period, T = 3  s

the formula for the time period of the pendulum is given by

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{mgd}}    .... (1)

where, I is the moment of inertia of the rod about the pivot point and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Moment of inertia of the rod about the centre of mass, Ic = mL²/12

By using the parallel axis theorem, the moment of inertia of the rod about the pivot is

I = Ic + md²

I = \frac{mL^{2}}{12}+ md^{2}

Substituting the values in equation (1)

3 = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\frac{mL^{2}}{12}+ md^{2}}{mgd}}

9=4\pi^{2}\times \left ( \frac{\frac{L^{2}}{12}+d^{2}}{gd} \right )

12d² -26.84 d + 2.25 =  0

d=\frac{26.84\pm \sqrt{26.84^{2}-4\times 12\times 2.25}}{24}

d=\frac{26.84\pm 24.75}{24}

d = 2.15 m , 0.087 m

d cannot be more than L/2, so the value of d is 0.087 m.

Thus, the distance between the pivot and the centre of mass of the rod is 0.087 m.

An object can be broken up by a planet's gravity once it passes the _______. The Jovian planets are composed primarily of ______
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:1. Roche limit

2.hydrogen

3.atmosphere

4.mercury

5.venus

6.when an object passes the Roche limit, the strength of gravity on the object increases. If the density of the planet is higher, then the object can break up farther away from the planet. If the density is lower, then the Roche limit is located closer to the planet

7.Farther our in the solar system, beyond the frost line, hydrogen was at a low enough temperature that it could condense. This allowed hydrogen to accumulate under gravity, eventually forming the Jovian planets

A car drives around a racetrack for 30 seconds. what do you need to know to calculate the average velocity of the car?
boyakko [2]
The time is given, and you want to find the average velocity. To do this, you need to know the distance covered by the driver around the racetrack in that 30 seconds. You divide this by the time, then you will obtain the average velocity in units of, say meters per second.
