To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Magnetic Force.

The magnetic force as magnitude of a vector is described by

F= IlBsin\theta

Where,

\theta = Angle between the wire and the magnetic field

L = Length

B = Magnetic Field

I = Current

Since the lightning bolt is perpendicular to the earth then the angle is 90°, moreover we need find the force per meter, then

\frac{F}{l} = IBsin\theta

Replacing with our values

\frac{F}{l} = (20000)(3*10^{-5})sin(90)

\frac{F}{l} = 0.6N/m

Therefore the force per meter on lightning volt is 0.6N/m

Kenny and Candy decided to sit on a see-saw while visiting a local play park. Candy, of mass
pochemuha

Answer:

(i) 208 cm from the pivot

(ii) Move further from the pivot

Explanation:

(i) Sum of the moments about the pivot of the seesaw is zero.

∑τ = Iα

(50 kg) (10 N/kg) (2.5 m) + (60 kg) (10 N/kg) x = 0

1250 Nm + 600 N x = 0

x = -2.08 m

Kenny should sit 208 cm on the other side of the pivot.

(ii) To increase the torque, Kenny should move away from the pivot.

Onur drops a basketball from a height of 10\,\text{m}10m10, start text, m, end text on Mars, where the acceleration due to gravi
Doss [256]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Basket ball is drop from height

H=10m

It is dropped on planet mass

And the acceleration due to gravity on Mars is given as

g= 3.7m/s²

Time taken for the ball to reach the ground

Initial velocity of the body is zero

u=0m/s

Using equation of motion: free fall

H = ut + ½gt²

10 = 0•t + ½ × 3.7 ×t²

10 = 0 + 1.85t²

10 = 1.85t²

Then, t² =10/1.85

t² = 5.405

t = √ 5.405

t = 2.325seconds

So the time the ball spend on the air before reaching the ground is 2.325 seconds

Evaporation of sweat requires energy and thus take excess heat away from the body. Some of the water that you drink may eventual
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The amount of heat required is H_t =  1.37 *10^{6} \ J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of water is m_w  =  20 \ ounce = 20 * 28.3495 = 5.7 *10^2 g

The temperature of the water before drinking is T_w  =  3.8 ^oC

The temperature of the body is T_b  =  36.6^oC

Generally the amount of heat required to move the water from its former temperature to the body temperature is

H=  m_w  *  c_w * \Delta T

Here c_w is the specific heat of water with value c_w = 4.18 J/g^oC

So

H=   5.7 *10^2 * 4.18 * (36.6 - 3.8)

=> H= 7.8 *10^{4} \  J

Generally the no of mole of sweat present mass of water is

n = \frac{m_w}{Z_s}

Here Z_w is the molar mass of sweat with value

Z_w =  18.015 g/mol

=> n = \frac{5.7 *10^2}{18.015}

=> n = 31.6 \  moles

Generally the heat required to vaporize the number of moles of the sweat is mathematically represented as

H_v  =  n  *  L_v

Here L_v is the latent heat of vaporization with value L_v  = 7 *10^{3} J/mol

=> H_v  =  31.6 * 7 *10^{3}

=> H_v  = 1.29 *10^{6} \  J

Generally the overall amount of heat energy required is

H_t =  H +  H_v

=> H_t =  7.8 *10^{4} +  1.29 *10^{6}

=> H_t =  1.37 *10^{6} \ J

A runner runs 300 m at an average speed of 3.0 m/s. She then runs another 300m at an average
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

B. 4 m/s

Explanation:

v=d/t

Running for 300 m at 3 m/s takes 100 seconds and running at 300 m at 6 m/s takes 50 seconds. 100 s + 50 s = 150 s (total time). Total distance is 600 m, so 600 m/ 150 s = 4 m/s.

Suppose you are designing an amplifier and loudspeaker system to use at a rock concert. You want to make it as loud as possible.
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer is given below

Explanation:

  • Audio power amplifiers are found in all types of sound systems, including sound reinforcement, public address and home audio systems, as well as musical instrument amplifiers such as guitar amplifiers.
  • This is the last electronic step in the general audio playback series before sending the signal to the loudspeaker.  So when we want maximum volume or loud sound, we have to get it with maximum output and high input and low output impedance
