Small household electrical devices, such as vacuum cleaners, televisions, and floor lamps, each draw a different amount of current, but all require 120 volts to operate. Are the outlets in of a power-strip, then, wired in series or parallel

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the selected configuration is PARALLEL

Explanation:

There are two ways to connect electrical circuits.

In series in this type of circuit the equipment is connected to the same line, in this case the current of the circuit circulates through all the inputs is the same, but the voltage in each one is a part of the total voltage, this circuit has the problem that if an appliance is disconnected or damages the power and the entire circuit is interrupted

              V_total = ∑ V_i

In a parallel circuit the equipment is connected in two two cables, for which the current is divided in each branch, the voltage in all the branches is the same, this type of circuit has the advantage that if one equipment is damaged or disconnects the others they can continue working

            V_total = V

Therefore, in consequence of the above, the selected configuration is PARALLEL

John runs 3 km north then walks 2 km south. What is his total distance traveled and displacement?

Answers

Answer:

the total distance is 5km and the displacement is 1km

Explanation:

The total distance would be the addition of John running both ways so 3 km, 2 km.

However since he only walked back from a distance of 3 km to 2 km, he would be displaced 1 km because displacement is more like the position from the original point.

Think about 2 km as a positive value for the first part of the question and a negative value for the second part.

Given that,

An airplane normally flying at 80 km/h north encounters a wind from the west of 10km/h at right angle to its forward motion a crosswind.

We need to find the resultant velocity of the airplane. It can be calculated as follows :

Assuming no friction, how does the initial gravitational potential energy of
the marble on a downward slope compare to the final kinetic energy?

a) they are the same
b) the initial gravitational potential energy is greater than the final kinetic energy
c) the initial gravitational potential energy is less then the final kinetic energy

Answers

Answer:

a) They are the same.

Explanation:

Assuming no friction, there should be no energy transfer and thus the Law of Conservation of Energy says:

[tex]PE=KE,\\mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]

These types of problems also disregard any air resistance the surface of the object may cause. Therefore, no energy is transferred and from the Law of Conservation of Energy, [tex]100\%[/tex] of energy is preserved.

Explanation:

A small rock is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 17.0m/s from the edge of the roof of a 26.0m tall building. The rock doesn't hit the building on its way back down and lands in the street below. Air resistance can be neglected.
Part A
What is the speed of the rock just before it hits the street?
Express your answer with the appropriate units.
Part B
How much time elapses from when the rock is thrown until it hits the street?
Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Answers

Answer:

A) v = 28.3 m/s

B) t =  4.64 s

Explanation:

A)

Assuming no other forces acting on the rock, since the accelerarion due to gravity close to the surface to the Earth can be taken as constant, we can use one of the kinematic equations in order to get first the maximum height (over the roof level) that the ball reaches:

        [tex]v_{f}^{2} - v_{o}^{2} = 2* g* \Delta h (1)[/tex]

Taking into account that at this point, the speed of the rock is just zero, this means vf=0 in (1), so replacing by the givens and solving for Δh, we get:

       [tex]\Delta h = \frac{-v_{o} ^{2}}{2*g} = \frac{-(17.0m/s)^{2} }{2*(-9.8m/s2)} = 14.8 m (2)[/tex]

So, we can use now the same equation, taking into account that the initial speed is zero (when it starts falling from the maximum height) and that the total vertical displacement is the distance between the roof level and the ground (26.0 m) plus the maximum height that we have just found in (2) , 14.8m:Δh = 26.0 m + 14. 8 m = 40.8 m (3)Replacing now in (1), we can solve for vf, as follows:

       [tex]v_{f} =\sqrt{2*g*\Delta h} = \sqrt{2*9.8m/s2*40.8m} = 28.3 m/s (4)[/tex]

B)

In order to find the total elapsed from when the rock is thrown until it hits the street, we can divide this time in two parts:1) Time elapsed from the the rock is thrown, until it reaches to its maximum height, when vf =02) Time elapsed from this point until it hits the street, with vo=0.For the first part, we can simply use the definition of acceleration (g in this case), making vf =0, as follows:

       [tex]v_{f} = v_{o} + a*\Delta t = v_{o} - g*\Delta t = 0 (5)[/tex]

Replacing by the givens in (5) and solving for Δt, we get:

       [tex]\Delta t = \frac{v_{o}}{g} = \frac{17.0m/s}{9.8m/s2} = 1.74 s (6)[/tex]

For the second part, since we know the total vertical displacement from (3), and that vo = 0 since it starts to fall, we can use the kinematic equation for displacement, as follows:

       [tex]\Delta h = \frac{1}{2} * g * t^{2} (7)[/tex]

Replacing by the givens and solving for t in (7), we get:

       [tex]t_{fall} =\sqrt{\frac{2*\Delta h}{g}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*40.8m}{9.8m/s2} } = 2.9 s (8)[/tex]

So, total time is just the sum of (6) and (8):t = 2.9 s + 1.74 s = 4.64 s

a. Static, Rolling, Sliding
b. Sliding, Rolling, Static
c. Rolling, Static, Sliding
d. Static, Sliding, Rolling

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\mathrm{d.\:Static,\: Sliding,\:Rolling}[/tex]

Explanation:

Static friction occurs when an object initially starts at rest. When the surfaces of the materials touch, the microscopic unevenness interlock greatest with each other, causing the most friction out of the three.

During sliding friction, an object is already moving or in motion. The microscopic surfaces still interlock, but because the object is in motion, it has a momentum. Therefore, the magnitude of sliding friction is less than that of static friction.

Rolling friction occurs when an object rolls across some surface. Rather than surfaces interlocking, rolling friction is caused by the constant distortion of surfaces. As it rolls, the surfaces of the object are constantly wrapping and changing. This distortion causes the rolling friction. However, it is much less in magnitude when compared to static or sliding friction.

Answers

Answer:

0.01

Explanation:

Given the data:

10.1,9.87, 9.76, 9.91, 9.75, 9.88, 9.69, 9.83, 9.90

True value = 9.81

Mean value :

Σx / n

Sample size, n = 9

(10.1 + 9.87 + 9.76 + 9.91 + 9.75 + 9.88 + 9.69 + 9.83 + 9.90) / 9

= 88.69 / 9

= 9.854

Standard deviation (σ) :

Sqrt (Σ(X - m)² / n)

[(10.1 - 9.854)^2 + (9.87 - 9.854)^2 + (9.76 - 9.854)^2 + (9.91 - 9.854)^2 + (9.75 - 9.854)^2 + (9.88 - 9.854)^2 + (9.69 - 9.854)^2 + (9.83 - 9.854)^2 + (9.90 - 9.854)^2] / 9

Sqrt(0.113824 / 9)

Sqrt(0.0126471)

σ = 0.1124593

Standard Error = σ / sqrt(n)

Standard Error = 0.1124593 / 9

Standard Error = 0.0124954

Standard Error = 0.01 ( 1 significant digit)

Answers

Answer:

Earth.

Explanation:

Center of gravity can be defined as the specific point where all of the weight of an object is concentrated.

Generally, all the objects found around the world all have a center of gravity.

When an object is balanced so that a displacement lowers its center of gravity, the object is said to be in stable equilibrium.

Hence, the force of gravity acting on an object is directed through this center of gravity and toward the center of the earth.

Weight can be defined as the force acting on a body or an object as a result of gravity.

Mathematically, weight is given by the formula;

[tex] Weight, W = mg [/tex]

Where;

m is the mass of an object.

g is acceleration due to gravity.

Heather drives her Super-Beetle around a turn on a circular track which has a radius of 200 m. The Super-Beetle has a mass of 1500 kg and the coefficient of static friction between the road and tires is 0.6.

a. What is the force of static friction the road can apply batore the car starts to selon (use Ft= uFn).
b. What is the maximum speed the car can travel before it would start to slide?

Answers

Answer:

a) The force of static friction the road can apply before the car starts to move is 8826.3 newtons.

b) The maximum speed that a car can travel before it would start to slide is approximately 34.305 meters per second.

Explanation:

a) Let suppose that the car is on a horizontal ground and travels at constant speed. The vehicle experiments a centripetal acceleration due to friction, which can be seen in the Free Body Diagram (please see image attached for further details). By Newton's Laws, we construct the following equations of equilibrium:

[tex]\Sigma F_{x} = \mu_{s}\cdot N = m\cdot \frac{v^{2}}{R}[/tex] (1)

[tex]\Sigma F_{y} = N -m\cdot g = 0[/tex] (2)

Where:

[tex]\mu_{s}[/tex] - Static coefficient of friction, dimensionless.

[tex]N[/tex] - Normal force from ground to the car, measured in newtons.

[tex]v[/tex] - Maximum speed of the car, measured in meters per second.

[tex]R[/tex] - Radius of the circular track, measured in meters.

[tex]m[/tex] - Mass, measured in kilograms.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

By applying (2) in (1):

[tex]\mu_{s}\cdot m\cdot g = m\cdot \frac{v^{2}}{R}[/tex] (3)

The force of static friction the road can apply in the car ([tex]f[/tex]), measured in newtons, is: ([tex]\mu_{s} = 0.6[/tex], [tex]m = 1500\,kg[/tex], [tex]g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex])

[tex]f = \mu_{s}\cdot m \cdot g[/tex]

[tex]f = (0.6)\cdot (1500\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)[/tex]

[tex]f = 8826.3\,N[/tex]

The force of static friction the road can apply before the car starts to move is 8826.3 newtons.

b) Then, we calculate the maximum speed of the car by (3):

[tex]\mu_{s}\cdot m\cdot g = m\cdot \frac{v^{2}}{R}[/tex]

[tex]\mu_{s}\cdot g = \frac{v^{2}}{R}[/tex]

[tex]v = \sqrt{\mu_{s}\cdot g\cdot R}[/tex]

If we know that [tex]\mu_{s} = 0.6[/tex], [tex]g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex] and [tex]R = 200\,m[/tex], then the maximum speed of the car can travel before it would start to slide is:

[tex]v =\sqrt{(0.6)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (200\,m)}[/tex]

[tex]v \approx 34.305\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

The maximum speed that a car can travel before it would start to slide is approximately 34.305 meters per second.

The driver of a car wishes to pass a truck that is traveling at a constant speed of 19.0 m/s. Initially, the car is also traveling at a speed 19.0 m/s and its front bumper is a distance 23.1 m behind the truck's rear bumper. The car begins accelerating at a constant acceleration 0.570 m/s^2, then pulls back into the truck's lane when the rear of the car is a distance 25.0 m ahead of the front of the truck. The car is of length 5.00 m and the truck is of length 21.3 m.
1. How much time is required for the car to pass the truck?
2. What distance does the car travel during this time?
3. What is the final speed of the car?

Answers

Answer:

16.16 s

381.5 m

28.21 m/s

Explanation:

Acceleration of the car = [tex]0.57\ \text{m/s}^2[/tex]

The distance the car moves is [tex]23.1+25+21.3+5=74.4\ \text{m}[/tex]

Initial position of the car is [tex]23.1+21.3+5=49.4\ \text{m}[/tex]

Position of the truck is given by the equation

[tex]x_r(t)=49.4+19t[/tex]

Position of the car is given by the equation

[tex]x_c(t)=19t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times0.57t^2[/tex]

Difference in their positions is 25 m

[tex]x_c(t)-x_r(t)=25\\\Rightarrow 19t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times0.57t^2-(49.4+19t)=25\\\Rightarrow 0.285t^2-74.4=0\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\dfrac{74.4}{0.285}}\\\Rightarrow t=16.16\ \text{s}[/tex]

Time required for the car to pass the truck is 16.16 s

[tex]x_c(16.16)=19\times 16.16+\dfrac{1}{2}\times0.57\times 16.16^2=381.5\ \text{m}[/tex]

The distance the car traveled during this time is 381.5 m

[tex]v_c(16.16)=19+0.57\times 16.16=28.21\ \text{m}[/tex]

The final speed of the car is 28.21 m/s
