Answer:
A) 0.4 mA
B) 0.03 mA
Explanation:
Given that
voltage source, V = 120 V
to solve this question, we would be using the very basic Ohms Law, that voltage is proportional to the current and the resistance passing through the circuit, if temperature is constant.
mathematically, Ohms Law, V = IR
V = Voltage
I = Current
R = Resistance
from question a, we were given 300kΩ, substituting this value of resistance in the equation, we have
120 = I * 300*10^3 Ω
making I the subject of the formula,
I = 120 / 300000
I = 0.0004 A
I = 0.4 mA
Question said, currents above 10 mA causes involuntary muscle contraction, this current is way below 10 mA, so nothing happens.
B, we have Resistance, R = 4000kΩ
Substituting like in part A, we have
120 = I * 4000*10^3 Ω
I = 120 / 4000000
I = 0.00003 A
I = 0.03 mA
This also means nothing happens, because 0.03 mA is very much lesser compared to in the 10 mA
The current through a person will be:
a) 0.4 mA
b) 0.03 mA
Given:
Voltage, V = 120 V
Ohm's Law:It states that the voltage or potential difference between two points is directly proportional to the current or electricity passing through the resistance, and directly proportional to the resistance of the circuit.
Ohms Law, V = I*R
where,
V = Voltage
I = Current
R = Resistance
a)
Given: Resistance= 300kΩ
[tex]120 = I * 300*10^3 ohm\\\\I = 120 / 300000\\\\I = 0.0004 A[/tex]
Thus, current will be, I = 0.4 mA
b)
Given: R = 4000kΩ
[tex]120 = I * 4000*10^3 ohm\\\\I = 120 / 4000000\\\\I = 0.00003 A[/tex]
Thus, current will be, I = 0.03 mA
From calculations, we observe that nothing happens, because 0.03 mA is very much lesser compared to in the 10 mA.

A car is travelling west at 22.2 m/s when it accelerated for 0.80 s to the west at 2.68 m/s2. Calculate the car's final velocity. Show all your work.
Answer:
24.34 m/s
Explanation:
recall that one of the equations of motions takes the form:
v = u + at
where,
v = final velocity
u = initial velocity (given as 22.2 m/s)
a = acceleration (given as 2.68m/s²)
t = time elapsed during acceleration (given as 0.80s)
since we are told that the the acceleration is in the direction of the intial velocity, we can simply substitute the known values into the equation above:
v = u + at
v = 22.2 + (2.68) (0.8)
v = 24.34 m/s
An electron moving in the direction of the +x-axis enters a magnetic field. If the electron experiences a magnetic deflection in the -y direction, the direction of the magnetic field in this region points in the direction of the:______

-z axis
Explanation:
According to the left hand rule for an electron in a magnetic field, hold the thumb of the left hand at a right angle to the rest of the fingers, and the rest of the fingers parallel to one another. If the thumb represents the motion of the electron, and the other fingers represent the direction of the field, then the palm will push in the direction of the force on the electron. In this case, the left hand will be held out with the thumb pointing to the right (+x axis), and the palm facing your body (-y axis). The magnetic field indicated by the other fingers will point down in the the -z axis.
A brick weighs 50.0 N, and measures 30.0 cm × 10.0 cm × 4.00 cm. What is the maximum pressure it can exert on a horizontal surface due to its weight?
Answer:
Pressure, P = 1250 Pa
Explanation:
Given that,
Weight of a brick, F = 50 N
Dimension of the brick is 30.0 cm × 10.0 cm × 4.00 cm
We need to find the maximum pressure it can exert on a horizontal surface due to its weight. Pressure is equal to the force acting per unit area. Pressure exerted is inversely proportional to the area of cross section. So, we need to minimize area. Taking to smaller dimensions.
A = 40 cm × 10 cm = 400 cm² = 0.04 m²
So,
Pressure,
[tex]P=\dfrac{50\ N}{0.04\ m^2}\\\\P=1250\ Pa[/tex]
So, the maximum pressure of 1250 Pa it can exert on a horizontal surface.
The maximum pressure it can exert on a horizontal surface due to its weight will be 1250 Pascal.
What is pressure?The force applied perpendicular to the surface of an item per unit area across which that force is spread is known as pressure. It is denoted by P.
The given data in the problem is;
W is the weight of a brick = 50 N
The dimension of the brick = 30.0 cm × 10.0 cm × 4.00 cm
A is the area,
The area is found as;
A=40 cm × 10 cm = 400 cm² = 0.04 m²
The pressure is the ratio of the force and area
[tex]\rm P = \frac{F}{A} \\\\ \rm P = \frac{50}{0.04} \\\\ \rm P =1250 \ Pascal[/tex]
Hence the maximum pressure it can exert on a horizontal surface due to its weight will be 1250 Pascal.

front wheel drive car starts from rest and accelerates to the right. Knowing that the tires do not slip on the road, what is the direction of the friction force the road applies to the rear tire
Answer:
The frictional force the road applies to the rear tire is static friction and it acts opposite to the direction in which the car is traveling.
Explanation:
This question suggests that the car is accelerating forward. Thus, the easiest way for us to know what friction is doing is for us to know what happens when we turn friction off.
Now, if there is no friction and the car is stopped, if we push down on the accelerator, it will make the front wheels to spin in a clockwise manner. This spin occurs on the frictionless surface with the rear wheels doing nothing while the car doesn't move.
Now, if we apply friction to just the front wheels, the car will accelerate forward while the back wheels would be dragging along the road and not be spinning. Thus, friction opposes the motion and as such, it must act im a direction opposite to where the car is going. This must be static friction.
The frictional force the road applies to the rear tire is static friction and it acts opposite to the direction in which the car is traveling.
The ancient Greek Eratosthenes found that the Sun casts different lengths of shadow at different points on Earth. There were no shadows at midday in Aswan as the Sun was directly overhead. 800 kilometers north, in Alexandria, shadow lengths were found to show the Sun at 7.2 degrees from overhead at midday. Use these measurements to calculate the radius of Earth.
Answer:
The radius of the earth is [tex]r = 6365.4 \ km[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The distance at Alexandria is [tex]d_a = 800 \ km = 800 *10^{3} \ m[/tex]
The angle of the sun is [tex]\theta = 7.2 ^o[/tex]
So we want to first obtain the circumference of the earth
So let assume that the earth is circular ([tex]360 ^o[/tex])
Now from question we know that the sun made an angle of [tex]7.2 ^o[/tex] so with this we will obtain how many [tex](7.2 ^o)[/tex] are in [tex]360^o[/tex]
i.e [tex]N = \frac{360}{7.2}[/tex]
=> [tex]N = 50[/tex]
With this value we can evaluate the circumference as
[tex]c = 50 * 800[/tex]
[tex]c = 40000 \ km[/tex]
Generally circumference is mathematically represented as
[tex]c = 2\pi r[/tex]
[tex]40000 = 2 * 3.142 * r[/tex]
=> [tex]r = 6365.4 \ km[/tex]

At what speed (in m/s) will a proton move in a circular path of the same radius as an electron that travels at 7.45 ✕ 106 m/s perpendicular to the Earth's magnetic field at an altitude where the field strength is 1.10 ✕ 10−5 T
Answer:
The speed of the proton is 4059.39 m/s
Explanation:
The centripetal force on the particle is given by;
[tex]F = \frac{mv^2}{r}[/tex]
The magnetic force on the particle is given by;
[tex]F = qvB[/tex]
The centripetal force on the particle must equal the magnetic force on the particle, for the particle to remain in the circular path.
[tex]\frac{mv^2}{r} = qvB\\\\r = \frac{mv^2}{qvB} \\\\r = \frac{mv}{qB}[/tex]
where;
r is the radius of the circular path moved by both electron and proton;
⇒For electron;
[tex]r = \frac{(9.1*10^{-31})(7.45*10^6)}{(1.602*10^{-19})(1.1*10^{-5})}\\\\r = 3.847 \ m[/tex]
⇒For proton
The speed of the proton is given by;
[tex]r = \frac{mv}{qB}\\\\mv = qBr\\\\v = \frac{qBr}{m} \\\\v = \frac{(1.602*10^{-19})(1.1*10^{-5})(3.847)}{1.67*10^{-27}} \\\\v = 4059.39 \ m/s[/tex]
Therefore, the speed of the proton is 4059.39 m/s
A car accelerates uniformly from rest and reaches a speed of 22.7 m/s in 9.02 s. Assume the diameter of a tire is 58.5 cm. (a) Find the number of revolutions the tire makes during this motion, assuming that no slipping occurs. rev (b) What is the final angular speed of a tire in revolutions per second? rev/s
(a) The car is undergoing an acceleration of
[tex]a=\dfrac{22.7\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}-0}{9.02\,\mathrm s}\approx2.52\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}[/tex]
so that in 9.02 s, it will have covered a distance of
[tex]x=\dfrac a2(9.02\,\mathrm s)^2\approx102\,\mathrm m[/tex]
The car has tires with diameter d = 58.5 cm = 0.585 m, and hence circumference π d ≈ 1.84 m. Divide the distance traveled by the tire circumference to determine how many revolutions it makes:
[tex]\dfrac{102\,\mathrm m}{1.84\,\mathrm m}\approx55.7\,\mathrm{rev}[/tex]
(b) The wheels have average angular velocity
[tex]\omega=\dfrac{\omega_f+\omega_i}2=\dfrac{\theta_f-\theta_i}{\Delta t}[/tex]
where [tex]\omega[/tex] is the average angular velocity, [tex]\omega_i[/tex] and [tex]\omega_f[/tex] are the initial and final angular velocities (rev/s), [tex]\theta_i[/tex] and [tex]\theta_f[/tex] are the initial and final angular displacements (rev), respectively, and [tex]\Delta t[/tex] is the duration of the time between initial and final measurements. The second equality holds because acceleration is constant.
The wheels start at rest, so
[tex]\dfrac{\omega_f}2=\dfrac{55.7\,\rm rev}{9.02\,\rm s}\implies\omega_f\approx12.4\dfrac{\rm rev}{\rm s}[/tex]

Explanation:
According to Equations of Projectile motion :
[tex]Time\ of\ Flight = \frac{2vsin(x)}{g}[/tex]
vsin(x) = 11 * 9.8 / 2 = 53.9 m/sec
(A) v (Initial velocity) = 11 * 9.8 / 2 * sin(35) = 94.56 m/sec
[tex]Maximum Height = \frac{(vsinx)^{2} }{2g}[/tex]
(B) Maximum Height = 53.9 * 53.9 / 2 * 9.8 = 142.2 m
[tex]Horizontal Range = vcosx * t[/tex]
(C) Horizontal Range = 94.56 * 0.81 * 11 = 842.52 m
Water pressurized to 3.5 x 105 Pa is flowing at 5.0 m/s in a horizontal pipe which contracts to 1/2 its former radius. a. What are the pressure and velocity of the water after the contraction
Answer:
Explanation:
Using the Continuity equation
v X A = v' xA'
so if A is 1/2of A' then A velocity must be 2 times the A'
after-contraction v = 2 x 5.0m/s = 10m/s
Using the Bernoulli equation
p₁ + ½ρv₁² + ρgh₁ = p₂ + ½ρv₂² + ρgh₂
, the "h" terms cancel
3.5 x 10^ 5Pa + ½ x 1000kg/m³x (5.0m/s)² = p₂ + ½ x 1000kg/m³ x (10m/s)²
p₂ = 342500pa

What is the excess charge on the surface of the earth? inC
Answer:
[tex]q = -461532.5 \ C[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The electric filed is [tex]E = 102 \ N/C[/tex]
Generally according to Gauss law
=> [tex]E A = \frac{q}{\epsilon_o }[/tex]
Given that the electric field is pointing downward , the equation become
[tex]- E A = \frac{q}{\epsilon_o }[/tex]
Here [tex]q[/tex] is the excess charge on the surface of the earth
[tex]A[/tex] is the surface area of the of the earth which is mathematically represented as
[tex]A = 4\pi r^2[/tex]
Where r is the radius of the earth which has a value [tex]r = 6.3781*10^6 m[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]A = 4 * 3.142 * (6.3781*10^6 \ m)^2[/tex]
[tex]A =5.1128 *10^{14} \ m^2[/tex]
So
[tex]q = -E * A * \epsilon _o[/tex]
Here [tex]\epsilon_o[/tex] s the permitivity of free space with value
[tex]\epsilon_o = 8.85*10^{-12} \ m^{-3} \cdot kg^{-1}\cdot s^4 \cdot A^2[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]q = -102 * 5.1128 *10^{14} * 8.85 *10^{-12}[/tex]
[tex]q = -461532.5 \ C[/tex]
A speeding car has a velocity of 80 mph; suddenly it passes a cop car but does not stop. When the speeding car passes the cop car, the cop immediately accelerates his vehicle from 0 to 90 mph in 4.5 seconds. The cop car has a maximum velocity of 90 mph. At what time does the cop car meet the speeding car and at what distance?
Answer:
Distance= 4 miles
Time = 36.3 seconds
Explanation:
80 mph = 178.95 m/s
90 mph = 201.32 m/s
V = u +at
201.32= 0+a(4.5)
201.32/4.5= a
44.738 m/s² = a
Acceleration of the cop car
= 44.738 m/s²
Distance traveled at 4.5seconds
For the cop car
S= ut + ½at²
S= 0(4.5) + ½*44.738*4.5
S= 100.66 meters
Distance traveled at 4.5seconds
For the speeding car
4.5*178.95=805.275
The cop car will still cover 704.675 +x distance while the speeding car covers for their distance to be equal
X/178.95= (704.675+x)/201.32
X-0.89x= 626.37
0.11x= 626.37
X= 5694.3 meters
The time = 5694.3/178.95
Time =31.8 seconds
So the distance they meet
= 5694.3+805.275
= 6499.575 meters
= 4.0 miles
The Time = 4.5+31.8
Time = 36.3 seconds
a car moves for 10 minutes and travels 5,280 meters .What is the average speed of the car?
Answer:use the formular distance over time i.e distance/time. Make sure to convert the distance from metres to kilometers and time from minutes to hours .
Explanation:
The average speed of the car is 31,680 meters per hour.
To calculate the average speed of the car, you need to divide the total distance traveled by the time it took to travel that distance.
Given:
Time taken (t) = 10 minutes = 10 minutes × (1 hour / 60 minutes) = 10/60 hours = 1/6 hours
Distance traveled (d) = 5,280 meters
Average Speed (v) = Distance (d) / Time (t)
Average Speed (v) = 5280 meters / (1/6) hours
To simplify, when you divide by a fraction, it's equivalent to multiplying by its reciprocal:
Average Speed (v) = 5280 meters × (6/1) hours
Average Speed (v) = 31,680 meters per hour
Hence, the average speed of the car is 31,680 meters per hour.

A person, with his ear to the ground, sees a huge stone strike the concrete pavement. A moment later two sounds are heard from the impact: one travels in the air and the other in the concrete, and they are 0.50 s apart. The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s, and in concrete is 3000 m/s.
Required:
How far away did the impact occur?
Answer:
The distance is [tex]d = 193.6 \ m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The time interval between the sounds is k[tex]t_1 = k + t_2[/tex] = 0.50 s
The speed of sound in air is [tex]v_s = 343 \ m/s[/tex]
The speed of sound in the concrete is [tex]v_c = 3000 \ m/s[/tex]
Generally the distance where the collision occurred is mathematically represented as
[tex]d = v * t[/tex]
Now from the question we see that d is the same for both sound waves
So
[tex]v_c t = v_s * t_1[/tex]
Now
So [tex]t_1 = k + t[/tex]
[tex]v_c t = v_s * (t+ k)[/tex]
=> [tex]3000 t = 343* (t+ 0.50)[/tex]
=> [tex]3000 t = 343* (t+ 0.50)[/tex]
=> [tex]t = 0.0645 \ s[/tex]
So
[tex]d = 3000 * 0.0645[/tex]
[tex]d = 193.6 \ m[/tex]

Approximating the eye as a single thin lens 2.70 cmcm from the retina, find the focal length of the eye when it is focused on an object at a distance of 265 cmcm
Answer:
0.37 cm
Explanation:
The image is formed on the retina which is at a constant distance of 2.70 cm to the lens. Therefore, image distance = 2.70 cm.
The object is at a distant of 265 cm to the lens of the eye.
From lens formula,
[tex]\frac{1}{f}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{u}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{1}{v}[/tex]
where: f is the focal length, u is the object distance and v is the image distance.
Thus, u = 265.00 cm and v = 2.70 cm.
[tex]\frac{1}{f}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{265}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{27}{10}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{10+7155}{2650}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{f}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{7165}{2650}[/tex]
⇒ f = [tex]\frac{2650}{7165}[/tex]
= 0.37
The focal length of the eye is 0.37 cm.
A mass M is attached to an ideal massless spring. When this system is set in motion with amplitude A, it has a period T. What is the period if the amplitude of the motion is doubled
Answer:
The period of the motion will still be equal to T.
Explanation:
for a system with mass = M
attached to a massless spring.
If the system is set in motion with an amplitude (distance from equilibrium position) A
and has period T
The equation for the period T is given as
[tex]T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{M}{k} }[/tex]
where k is the spring constant
If the amplitude is doubled, the distance from equilibrium position to the displacement is doubled.
Increasing the amplitude also increases the restoring force. An increase in the restoring force means the mass is now accelerated to cover more distance in the same period, so the restoring force cancels the effect of the increase in amplitude. Hence, increasing the amplitude has no effect on the period of the mass and spring system.
PLEASE HELP FAST Five-gram samples of brick and glass are at room temperature. Both samples receive equal amounts of energy due to heat flow. The specific heat capacity of brick is 0.22 cal/g°C and the specific heat capacity of glass is 0.22 cal/g°C. Which of the following statements is true? 1.The temperature of each sample will increase by the same amount. 2.The temperature of each sample will decrease by the same amount. 3.The brick will get hotter than the glass. 4.The glass will get hotter than the brick.
Answer:
1.The temperature of each sample will increase by the same amount
Explanation:
This is because, since their specific heat capacities are the same and we have the same mass of each substance, and the same amount of energy due to heat flow is supplied to both the glass and brick at room temperature, their temperatures would thereby increase by the same amount.
This is shown by the calculation below
Q = mcΔT
ΔT = Q/mc where ΔT = temperature change, Q = amount of heat, m = mass of substance and c = specific heat capacity of substance.
Since Q, m and c are the same for both substances, thus ΔT will be the same.
So, the temperature of each sample will increase by the same amount
A fan rotating with an initial angular velocity of 1500 rev/min is switched off. In 2.5 seconds, the angular velocity decreases to 400 rev/min. Assuming the angular acceleration is constant, answer the following questions.
How many revolutions does the blade undergo during this time?
A) 10
B) 20
C) 100
D) 125
E) 1200
Answer:
The blade undergoes 40 revolutions, so neither of the given options is correct!
Explanation:
The revolutions can be found using the following equation:
[tex]\theta_{f} = \theta_{i} + \omega_{i}*t + \frac{1}{2}\alpha*t^{2}[/tex]
Where:
α is the angular acceleration
t is the time = 2.5 s
[tex]\omega_{i}[/tex] is the initial angular velocity = 1500 rev/min
First, we need to find the angular acceleration:
[tex] \alpha = \frac{\omega_{f} - \omega_{i}}{t} = \frac{400 rev/min*2\pi rad*1 min/60 s - 1500 rev/min *2\pi rad*1 min/60 s}{2.5 s} = -46.08 rad/s^{2} [/tex]
Now, the revolutions that the blade undergo are:
[tex]\theta_{f} - \theta_{i} = \omega_{i}*t + \frac{1}{2}\alpha*t^{2}[/tex]
[tex]\Delta \theta = 1500 rev/min *2\pi rad*1 min/60 s*2.5 s - \frac{1}{2}*(46.08 rad/s^{2})*(2.5)^{2} = 248.7 rad = 39.9 rev[/tex]
Therefore, the blade undergoes 40 revolutions, so neither of the given options is correct!

If a sample emits 2000 counts per second when the detector is 1 meter from the sample, how many counts per second would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample?
Answer:
6000 counts per secondExplanation:
If a sample emits 2000 counts per second when the detector is 1 meter from the sample, then;
2000 counts per second = 1 meter ... 1
In order to know the number of counts per second that would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample, we will have;
x count per second = 3 meter ... 2
Solving the two expressions simultaneously for x we will have;
2000 counts per second = 1 meter
x counts per second = 3 meter
Cross multiply to get x
2000 * 3 = 1* x
6000 = x
This shows that 6000 counts per second would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample

Which object exhibits the longest orbital period? Hint: perform order of magnitude analysis.
a. Moon around Earth
b. Charon around Pluto
c. About the same for both
Answer:
a. Moon around Earth.
Explanation:
Charon orbit takes around 6.4 earth days to complete its orbit. Charon does not rises or sets, it hovers over same spot around the Pluto. The same side of Charon faces the Pluto, this is called Tidal Locking.
The moon orbit takes around 27 days to complete its orbit. The moon has different sides that are faced with sun which creates light or dark face of moon on the earth. Moon has 384,400 km distance from the earth.
The object that should exhibit the longest orbital period is option a. Moon around Earth.
What is Charon's orbit?Charon's orbit takes around 6.4 earth days to finish its orbit. Charon does not rise or sets, it hovers over similar spot around Pluto. The same side of Charon faces Pluto, this we called Tidal Locking. Here the moon orbit should take approx 27 days to finish its orbit. The moon has various sides that are faced with the sun which developed the light or dark face of the moon on the earth. Also, Moon has 384,400 km distance from the earth.

An electric device delivers a current of 5.0 A to a circuit. How many electrons flow through this circuit in 5 s?
Answer:
1.6×10²⁰
Explanation:
An ampere is a Coulomb per second.
1 A = 1 C / s
The amount of charge after 5 seconds is:
5.0 A × 5 s = 25 C
The number of electrons is:
25 C × (1 electron / 1.6×10⁻¹⁹ C) = 1.6×10²⁰ electrons
A merry-go-round spins freely when Diego moves quickly to the center along a radius of the merry-go-round. As he does this, it is true to say that

A) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed increases.
Explanation:
The complete question is
A merry-go-round spins freely when Diego moves quickly to the center along a radius of the merry-go-round. As he does this, It is true to say that
A) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed increases.
B) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed decreases.
C) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed remains the same.
D) the moment of inertia of the system increases and the angular speed increases.
E) the moment of inertia of the system increases and the angular speed decreases
In angular momentum conservation, the initial angular momentum of the system is conserved, and is equal to the final angular momentum of the system. The equation of this angular momentum conservation is given as
[tex]I_{1} w_{1} = I_{2} w_{2}[/tex] ....1
where [tex]I_{1}[/tex] and [tex]I_{2}[/tex] are the initial and final moment of inertia respectively.
and [tex]w_{1}[/tex] and [tex]w_{2}[/tex] are the initial and final angular speed respectively.
Also, we know that the moment of inertia of a rotating body is given as
[tex]I = mr^{2}[/tex] ....2
where [tex]m[/tex] is the mass of the rotating body,
and [tex]r[/tex] is the radius of the rotating body from its center.
We can see from equation 2 that decreasing the radius of rotation of the body will decrease the moment of inertia of the body.
From equation 1, we see that in order for the angular momentum to be conserved, the decrease from [tex]I_{1}[/tex] to [tex]I_{2}[/tex] will cause the angular speed of the system to increase from [tex]w_{1}[/tex] to [tex]w_{2}[/tex] .
From this we can clearly see that reducing the radius of rotation will decrease the moment of inertia, and increase the angular speed.
