Answer:
Explanation:
Resistance is defined as the opposition to the flow of an electric current in a circuit. This means that a higher amount of resistance tends to reduce the amount of current flowing through the resistance. The lower the current, the greater the possibility for the resistor to allow current to pass through it. if a 200 Ω resistor was used in Circuit 1 instead of the 100 Ω resistor, then the current in the circuit will tends to increase since we are replacing the load with a lesser resistor and a smaller resistance tends to allow more current to flow through it
For the potential difference, a decrease in the resistance value will onl decrease the potential difference flowing in the circuit according to ohm's law. According to the law the pd in a circuit is directly proportional to the current which means an increase in the resistance value will cause an increase in the corresponding pd and vice versa.
A small meteorite with mass of 1 g strikes the outer wall of a communication satellite with a speed of 2Okm/s (relative to the satellite). The mass of the satellite is 200 kg.
About how much energy (in kJ) was converted to heat?
Answer:
The energy coverted to heat is 200 kilojoules.
Explanation:
GIven the absence of external forces exerted both on the small meteorite and on the communication satellite, the Principle of Linear Momentum is considered and let suppose that collision is completely inelastic and that satellite is initially at rest. Hence, the expression for the satellite-meteorite system:
[tex]m_{M}\cdot v_{M} + m_{S}\cdot v_{S} = (m_{M}+m_{S})\cdot v[/tex]
Where:
[tex]m_{M}[/tex], [tex]m_{S}[/tex] - Masses of the small meteorite and the communication satellite, measured in kilograms.
[tex]v_{M}[/tex], [tex]v_{S}[/tex] - Speeds of the small meteorite and the communication satellite, measured in meters per second.
[tex]v[/tex] - Final speed of the satellite-meteorite system, measured in meters per second.
The final speed of the satellite-meteorite system is cleared:
[tex]v = \frac{m_{M}\cdot v_{M}+m_{S}\cdot v_{S}}{m_{M}+m_{S}}[/tex]
If [tex]m_{M} = 1\times 10^{-3}\,kg[/tex], [tex]m_{S} = 200\,kg[/tex], [tex]v_{M} = 20000\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]v_{S} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], the final speed is now calculated:
[tex]v = \frac{(1\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(20000\,\frac{m}{s} \right)+(200\,kg)\cdot \left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)}{1\times 10^{-3}\,kg+200\,kg}[/tex]
[tex]v = 0.1\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
Which means that the new system remains stationary and all mechanical energy from meteorite is dissipated in the form of heat. According to the Principle of Energy Conservation and the Work-Energy Theorem, the change in the kinetic energy is equal to the dissipated energy in the form of heat:
[tex]K_{S} + K_{M} - K - Q_{disp} = 0[/tex]
[tex]Q_{disp} = K_{S}+K_{M}-K[/tex]
Where:
[tex]K_{S}[/tex], [tex]K_{M}[/tex] - Initial translational kinetic energies of the communication satellite and small meteorite, measured in joules.
[tex]K[/tex] - Kinetic energy of the satellite-meteorite system, measured in joules.
[tex]Q_{disp}[/tex] - Dissipated heat, measured in joules.
The previous expression is expanded by using the definition for the translational kinetic energy:
[tex]Q_{disp} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot [m_{M}\cdot v_{M}^{2}+m_{S}\cdot v_{S}^{2}-(m_{M}+m_{S})\cdot v^{2}][/tex]
Given that [tex]m_{M} = 1\times 10^{-3}\,kg[/tex], [tex]m_{S} = 200\,kg[/tex], [tex]v_{M} = 20000\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], [tex]v_{S} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]v = 0.1\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], the dissipated heat is:
[tex]Q_{disp} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left[(1\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(20000\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+(200\,kg)\cdot \left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-(200.001\,kg)\cdot \left(0.001\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}\right][/tex][tex]Q_{disp} = 200000\,J[/tex]
[tex]Q_{disp} = 200\,kJ[/tex]
The energy coverted to heat is 200 kilojoules.

M = ρV = (1000 kg/m^3)(38 m^3) = 38,000 kg
The force of gravity on that mass is ...
F = Mg = (38,000 kg)(9.8 m/s^2) = 372,400 N
How much heat is required to convert 500g of liquid water at 28°C into steam at 150°C? Take the specific heat capacity of water to be 4183J/kg°C and the latent heat of vaporization to be 2.26×10⁶J/kg
Answer:
1,327,063Joules
Explanation:
Heat energy is the energy needed to convert the state of a body from one phase to another.
According to the question, we want to calculate the total heat required to convert water into vapour (steam).
Note that before water can vapourize, it has to reach the boiling point first which is at 100°C. Heat energy needed to convert the water to 100°C is expressed as H1 = mcΔθ
m is the mass of the object in kg =0.5kg
c is the spcific heat capacity of water = 4183J/kg°C
Δθ is the change in temperature = 100-28 = 72°C
H1 = 0.5*4183*72
H1 = 150,588Joules
Energy required to convert the water to team H2 =mLsteam
Lsteam is the latent heat of vaporization = 2.26×10⁶J/kg
H2 = 0.5*2.26×10⁶
H2 = 1130000Joules
Heat energy needed to convert the water to 150°C is expressed as H3 = mcΔθ
m is the mass of the object in kg =0.5kg
c is the spcific heat capacity of steam= 1859J/kg°C
Δθ is the change in temperature = 150-100 = 50°C
H3 = 0.5*1859*50
H1 = 46,475Joules
Total Heat requires = H1+H2+H3 = 150,588Joules+1130000Joules+ 46,475Joules = 1,327,063Joules

A student builds a rocket-propelled cart for a science project. Its acceleration is not quite high enough to win a prize, so he uses a larger rocket engine that provides 39% more thrust, although doing so increases the mass of the cart by 13%. By what percentage does the cart's acceleration increase?
Answer:
Explanation:
a = F / m
where a is acceleration , F is thrust and m is mass
taking log and differentiating
da / a = dF / F - dm / m
(da / a)x 100 = (dF / F)x100 - (dm / m) x100
percentage increase in a = percentage increase in F - percentage increase in m
= percentage increase in acceleration a = 39 - 13 = 26 %
required increase = 26 %.

How would the magnetic field lines appear for a bar magnet cut at the midpoint, with the two pieces placed end to end with a space in between such that the cut edges are closest to each other
Answer:
cutting the magnet in two parts each part has a North and South pole,
Explanation:
In magnetism the magnetic mono-poles are not found, this means that we do not have magnetic charges alone, therefore when cutting the magnet in two parts each part has a North and South pole, the magnetic lines go from the North pole to the South pole, see attached.
The density of the lines is approximately the intensity of the magnetic field.
A long solenoid (1500 turns/m) carries a current of 20 mA and has an inside diameter of 4.0 cm. A long wire carries a current of 2.0 A along the axis of the solenoid. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field at a point that is inside the solenoid and 1.0 cm from the wire
Answer:
The magnitude of the magnetic field is 55μT
Explanation:
Given;
number of turns of the solenoid per length, n = N/L = 1500 turns/m
current in the solenoid, I = 20 mA = 20 x 10⁻³ A
diameter of the solenoid, d = 4 cm = 0.04 m
The magnetic field at a point that is inside the solenoid;
B₁ = μ₀nI
Where;
μ₀ is permeability of free space = 4π x 10⁻⁷ m/A
B₁ = 4π x 10⁻⁷ x 1500 x 20 x 10⁻³
B₁ = 3.77 x 10⁻⁵ T
Given;
current in the wire, I = 2 A
distance of magnetic field from the wire, r = 1 cm = 0.01 m
The magnetic field at 1.0 cm from the wire;
[tex]B_2 = \frac{\mu_0I}{2\pi r} \\\\B_2 = \frac{4\pi*10^{-7}*2}{2\pi *0.01}\\\\B_2 = 4 *10^{-5} \ T[/tex]
The magnitude of the magnetic field;
[tex]B = \sqrt{B_1^2 +B_2^2} \\\\B = \sqrt{(3.77*10^{-5})^2 + (4*10^{-5})^2} \\\\B = 5.5 *10^{-5} \ T\\\\B = 55 \mu T[/tex]
Therefore, the magnitude of the magnetic field is 55μT
The magnitude of the magnetic field at a point that is inside the solenoid and 1.0 cm from the wire is [tex]5.5 \times 10^{-5}T[/tex]
Given the following parameters from the question
Number of turns of the solenoid per length, n = N/L = 1500 turns/m current in the solenoid, I = 20 mA = 20 x 10⁻³ A Diameter of the solenoid, d = 4 cm = 0.04 mThe magnetic field at a point that is inside the solenoid is expressed according to the formula;
B₁ = μ₀nIWhere;
μ₀ is the permeability of free space = 4π x 10⁻⁷ m/A
B₁ = 4π x 10⁻⁷ x 1500 x 20 x 10⁻³
B₁ = 3.77 x 10⁻⁵ T
Next is to get the magnetic field strength in the second wire.
Current in the wire, I = 2 A Distance of magnetic field from the wire, r = 1 cm = 0.01 mThe magnetic field at 1.0 cm from the wireSubstitute into the formula:

a 5 charge is locataed 1.25 m to the left of a -3 charge. What is the magnitude and direction of the electrostatic force on the postive charge
Answer:
The force is 86.5×10^9 N towards the negative charge (to the right)
Explanation:
The electrostatic force on the charges is given by Coulomb's law;
F= Kq1q2/r^2
This an inverse square law.
F= electrostatic force on the charges
K= constant of Coulomb's law
q1 and q2= magnitude of the charges
Since K= 9.0×10^9Nm^2C^2
F= 9.0×10^9 × 5 × 3/(1.25)^2 = 135×10^9/1.56
F= 86.5×10^9 N
The force is 86.5×10^9 N towards the negative charge.
Suppose that 4 J of work is needed to stretch a spring from its natural length of 36 cm to a length of 47 cm. (a) How much work is needed to stretch the spring from 41 cm to 45 cm? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) J (b) How far beyond its natural length will a force of 15 N keep the spring stretched? (Round your answer one decimal place.)
Answer:
Explanation:
Work done on a spring is expressed as [tex]W = 1/2 ke^{2}[/tex]
k is the elastic constant
e is the extension of the material
If 4 J of work is needed to stretch a spring from its natural length of 36 cm to a length of 47 cm, then;
Work done = 4J and the extension e = 47 cm - 36 cm; e = 11 cm
11cm = 0.11m
Substituting the given values into the equation above to get the elastic constant;
[tex]W = 1/2 ke^{2}\\4 = 1/2k(0.11)^{2} \\8 = 0.0121k\\k = 8/0.0121\\k = 661.16N/m[/tex]
a) In order to determine the amount of work needed work is needed to stretch the spring from 41 cm to 45 cm, wre will use the same formula as above.
[tex]W = 1/2ke^{2} \\e = 0.45 - 0.41\\e = 0.04 m\\ k = 661.16N/m[/tex]
[tex]W = 1/2 * 661.16 * 0.04^{2} \\W = 330.58*0.0016\\W = 0.53J (to\ 2d.p)[/tex]
b) According to hooke's law, F = ke where F is the applied force
We are to get the extension when a force of 15N is applied to the original length of the material.
e = F/k
e = 15/661.16
e = 0.02 m (to 1 d.p)
This means that the natural length of the spring will be stretched by 0.02 m when a force of 15N is applied to it.

B) The velocity at point C, if the work done to move the roller coaster from point B to C is 264870 J is; v = 31.295 m/s
A) Formula for gravitational potential energy is;
PE = mgh
At point A;
mass; m = 900 kg
height; h = 80 m
Thus;
PE = 900 × 9.8 × 80
PE = 705600 J
B) Kinetic energy of the roller coaster at point C is given as;
KE = PE - W
We are given Workdone; W = 264870 J

16. When a plastic rod is rubbed with fur, the rod will become negatively charged. Which of the following best explains how this happens? A. Electrons are transferred from the plastic rod to the fur. B. Electrons are transferred from the fur to the plastic rod. C. Negative charges are created on the plastic rod. D. Positive charges are removed from the plastic rod.
Answer:
B. Electrons are transferred from the fur to the plastic rod.
Explanation:
Triboelectricity or friction charging refers to the ability of materials to gain or lose electrons as a result of rubbing them against something. This phenomenon has been observed in the case of rubbing plastic rod against fur, or glass rod against silk.
In the context of rubbing plastic rod against fur, what happens is that the fur which has an excess of charges loses electrons to the plastic rod. This makes the plastic rod to become positively charged, and the fur, negatively charged.

c)If the line voltage drops to 110 V, what power does the heater take? (Assume that the resistance is constant. Actually, it will change because of the change in temperature.)
d)The heater coils are metallic, so that the resistance of the heater decreases with decreasing temperature. If the change of resistance with temperature is taken into account, will the electrical power consumed by the heater be larger or smaller than what you calculated in the previous part?
a. It will be smaller. The resistance will be smaller so the current drawn will increase, decreasing the power.
b. It will be smaller. The resistance will be smaller so the current drawn will decrease, decreasing the power.
c. It will be larger. The resistance will be smaller so the current drawn will increase, increasing the power.
d. It will be larger. The resistance will be smaller so the current drawn will decrease, increasing the power.
Answer:
a) 24.4 Ω
b) 4.92 A
c) 495.9 W
d)
c. It will be larger. The resistance will be smaller so the current drawn will increase, increasing the power.
Explanation:
b)
The formula for power is:
P = IV
where,
P = Power of heater = 590 W
V = Voltage it takes = 120 V
I = Current Drawn = ?
Therefore,
590 W = (I)(120 V)
I = 590 W/120 V
I = 4.92 A
a)
From Ohm's Law:
V = IR
R = V/I
Therefore,
R = 120 V/4.92 A
R = 24.4 Ω
c)
For constant resistance and 110 V the power becomes:
P = V²/R
Therefore,
P = (110 V)²/24.4 Ω
P = 495.9 W
d)
If the resistance decreases, it will increase the current according to Ohm's Law. As a result of increase in current the power shall increase according to formula (P = VI). Therefore, correct option is:
c. It will be larger. The resistance will be smaller so the current drawn will increase, increasing the power.
At 30.0 m below the surface of the sea (density = 1 025 kg/m3), where the temperature is 5.00°C, a diver exhales an air bubble having a volume of 0.95 cm3. If the surface temperature of the sea is 20.0°C, what is the volume of the bubble just before it breaks the surface?
Answer:
The volume is [tex]V_a = 1.510 *10^{-5} m^3[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The depth below the see is [tex]d_1 = 30.0 \ m[/tex]
The density of the sea is [tex]\rho_s = 1025 \ kg /m^3[/tex]
The temperature at this level is [tex]T_d = 5.00 ^oC = 278 \ K[/tex]
The volume of the air bubble at this depth is [tex]V_d = 0.95 \ cm^3 = 0.95 *0^{-6}\ m[/tex]
The temperature at the surface is [tex]T_a = 20^oC =293\ K[/tex]
Generally the pressure at the given depth is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]P_d = P_o + \rho_s * g * d[/tex]
Where [tex]P_o[/tex] is the atmospheric pressure with a constant value
[tex]P_o = 1.013 *10^{5} \ Pa[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]P_d = 1.013 * 10^{5} * + (1025 * 9.8 * 30 )[/tex]
[tex]P_d = 4.02650 * 10^{5} \ Pa[/tex]
According to the combined gas law
[tex]\frac{P_a * V_a }{T_a } = \frac{P_d * V_d }{T_d }[/tex]

A stellar object is emitting radiation at 3.55 mm. If a detector is capturing 3.2×108 photons per second at this wavelength, what is the total energy of the photons detected in 1.0 hour?
Answer:
E = 6.45 x 10⁻¹¹ J
Explanation:
First we need to find total number of photons detected in 1 hour. Therefore,
No. of Photons = n = (3.2 x 10⁸ photons/s)(1 h)(3600 s/1 h)
n = 11.52 x 10¹¹ photons
Now, the energy of these photons can be given by the formula:
E = nhc/λ
where,
E = Total Energy of the Photons = ?
h = Plank's Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s
c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
λ = wavelength of radiation = 3.55 mm = 3.55 x 10⁻³ m
Therefore,
E = (11.52 x 10¹¹)(6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(3.55 x 10⁻³ m)
E = 6.45 x 10⁻¹¹ J
A copper telephone wire has essentially no sag between poles 36.0 m apart on a winter day when the temperature is −20.0°C. How much longer is the wire on a summer day when the temperature is 34.0°C?
Answer:
The extension is [tex]\Delta L = 0.033 \ m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The length of the wire on a winter day is [tex]L_w = 36.0 \ m[/tex]
The temperature on the winter day is [tex]T_w = -20.0 ^o C[/tex]
The temperature on a summer day is [tex]T_s = 34.0 ^0 C[/tex]
The the extension of the wire on a summer day is mathematically represented as
[tex]\Delta L = \alpha L_w [T_s - T_w][/tex]
Where
[tex]\alpha[/tex] is the coefficient of linear expansion of copper with a values [tex]\alpha = 17 *10^{-6}[/tex]
substituting value
[tex]\Delta L = 17 *10^{-6} * 36.0 [34 - [-20]][/tex]
[tex]\Delta L = 0.033 \ m[/tex]
Find the work done in pumping gasoline that weighs 6600 newtons per cubic meter. A cylindrical gasoline tank 3 meters in diameter and 6 meters long is carried on the back of a truck and is used to fuel tractors. The axis of the tank is horizontal. The opening on the tractor tank is 5 meters above the top of the tank in the truck. Find the work done in pumping the entire contents of the fuel tank into the tractor.
Answer:
work done in pumping the entire fuel is 1399761 J
Explanation:
weight per volume of the gasoline = 6600 N/m^3
diameter of the tank = 3 m
length of the tank = 6 m
The height of the tractor tank above the top of the tank = 5 m
The total volume of the fuel is gotten below
we know that the tank is cylindrical.
we assume that the fuel completely fills the tank.
therefore, the volume of a cylinder =
where r = radius = diameter ÷ 2 = 3/2 = 1.5 m
volume of the cylinder = 3.142 x x 6 = 42.417 m^3
we then proceed to find the total weight of the fuel in Newton
total weight = (weight per volume) x volume
total weight = 6600 x 42.417 = 279952.2 N
therefore,
the work done to pump the fuel through to the 5 m height = (total weight of the fuel) x (height through which the fuel is pumped)
work done in pumping = 279952.2 x 5 = 1399761 J
Suppose that a 117.5 kg football player running at 6.5 m/s catches a 0.43 kg ball moving at a speed of 26.5 m/s with his feet off the ground, while both of them are moving horizontally.
(a) Calculate the final speed of the player, in meters per second, if the ball and player are initially moving in the same direction.
(b) Calculate the change in kinetic energy of the system, in joules, after the player catches the ball.
(c) Calculate the final speed of the player, in meters per second, if the ball and player are initially moving in opposite directions.
(d) Calculate the change in kinetic energy of the system, in joules, in this case.
Answer:
a) 6.57 m/s
b) 53.75 J
c) 6.37 m/s
d) -98.297 J
Explanation:
mass of player = [tex]m_{p}[/tex] = 117.5 kg
speed of player = [tex]v_{p}[/tex] = 6.5 m/s
mass of ball = [tex]m_{b}[/tex] = 0.43 kg
velocity of ball = [tex]v_{b}[/tex] = 26.5 m/s
Recall that momentum of a body = mass x velocity = mv
initial momentum of the player = mv = 117.5 x 6.5 = 763.75 kg-m/s
initial momentum of the ball = mv = 0.43 x 26.5 = 11.395 kg-m/s
initial kinetic energy of the player = [tex]\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x 117.5 x [tex]6.5^{2}[/tex] = 2482.187 J
a) according to conservation of momentum, the initial momentum of the system before collision must equate the final momentum of the system.
for this first case that they travel in the same direction, their momenta carry the same sign
[tex]m_{p}[/tex][tex]v_{p}[/tex] + [tex]m_{b}[/tex][tex]v_{b}[/tex] = ([tex]m_{p}[/tex] +[tex]m_{b}[/tex])v
where v is the final velocity of the player.
inserting calculated momenta of ball and player from above, we have
763.75 + 11.395 = (117.5 + 0.43)v
775.145 = 117.93v
v = 775.145/117.93 = 6.57 m/s
b) the player's new kinetic energy = [tex]\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x 117.5 x [tex]6.57^{2}[/tex] = 2535.94 J
change in kinetic energy = 2535.94 - 2482.187 = 53.75 J gained
c) if they travel in opposite direction, equation becomes
[tex]m_{p}[/tex][tex]v_{p}[/tex] - [tex]m_{b}[/tex][tex]v_{b}[/tex] = ([tex]m_{p}[/tex] +[tex]m_{b}[/tex])v
763.75 - 11.395 = (117.5 + 0.43)v
752.355 = 117.93v
v = 752.355/117.93 = 6.37 m/s
d) the player's new kinetic energy = [tex]\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x 117.5 x [tex]6.37^{2}[/tex] = 2383.89 J
change in kinetic energy = 2383.89 - 2482.187 = -98.297 J
that is 98.297 J lost

A metal ring 4.00 cm in diameter is placed between the north and south poles of large magnets with the plane of its area perpendicular to the magnetic field. These magnets produce an initial uniform field of 1.12 T between them but are gradually pulled apart, causing this field to remain uniform but decrease steadily at 0.200 T/s.
(a) What is the magnitude of the electric field induced in the ring?
(b) In which direction (clockwise or counterclockwise) does the current flow as viewed by someone on the south pole of the magnet?
Explanation:
a) d[phi]/dt = (dB/dt)*Acos(0) = (-0.20)*(pi(2.25*10^-2)^2) = -3.98*10^-4 Wb
E = (1/2r*pi)*(d[phi]/dt) = -2.8*10^-3 N/C
b) Clockwise because The induced magnetic field will be in the direction to oppose the change. Since the magnetic flux from the magnets is decreasing, the induced magnetic field will be in the same direction as the magnet's field.
which of the following statements describes the formation of acid rain?...A. acid rain forms from human activities and lowers the pH of rainwater below 7 B. acid rain forms naturally and lowers the pH of rainwater below 7 C. acid rain forms from human activities raises the pH of rainwater above 7 D. acid rain forms naturally and raises the pH of rainwater above 7
The correct answer is A. Acid rain forms from human activities and lowers the pH of rainwater below 7
Explanation:
The term "acid rain" is used to refer to rainwater with a low pH or a high acidity, this includes rainwater with a pH below 7 (solutions with a pH under 7 are acidic). In terms of formation, acid rain is mainly the result of human activities such as factories or cars that release pollutants into the atmosphere including nitric and sulfuric acids and these alter the natural pH of rain and makes it more acidic. Additionally, acid rain has negative consequences such as the death of fishes and other organisms in lakes, rivers, etc. because the acidity is toxic to many organisms. Thus, acid rain is the result of human activities and it lowers the pH of rain (Option A).
Suppose you have a lens system that is to be used primarily for 775-nm light. What is the second thinnest coating of fluorite (calcium fluoride) that would be non-reflective for this wavelength?
Answer:
406 nm
Explanation:
We are given;
Wavelength; λ = 775 nm
Refractive index of Calcium fluoride with wavelength of 775 nm as seen in the graph attached is approximately 1.4308.
n = 1.4308
Formula for the thickness of the film that would destruct the light is;
t = (m + 0.5)(λ/2n)
Where m is the order of the thickness.
The first smallest thickness is at m = 0 while the second smallest thickness is at m = 1.
Thus;
t = (1 + 0.5)(775/(2 × 1.4308))
t ≈ 406 nm
