state the reason why wick lamps are made of cotton

Answer: 37.5 km

Explanation:

The question is that

If you ran 15 km/hr for 2.5 hours, how much distance would you cover ?

Where

Speed = 15 km/ hr

Time = 2.5 hours

Using the formula for speed.

Speed = distance/time

Substitute speed and time into the formula

15 = distance/ 2.5

Make distance the subject of formula by cross multiplying.

Distance = 15 × 2.5

Distance = 37.5 km.

Answer:

60

Explanation:

According to the given question, the computation of minimum coating thickness is shown below:-

The condition for constructive interference is

[tex]2t_{min} = (m + \frac{1}{2} )\times \frac{\lambda}{^nmateral}[/tex]

[tex]= (0 + \frac{1}{2} )\times \frac{\lambda}{^nmateral}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{\lambda}{4n}[/tex]

Now we will put the values to the above formula to reach the answer

[tex]= \frac{480nm}{4\times 2.0}[/tex]

= 60

Therefore we simply applied the above formula to determine the minimum coating thickness

The minimum coating thickness needed to ensure that light of wavelength 480 nm and of perpendicular incidence will be reflected from the two surfaces of the coating with fully constructive interference is 60.

Given that, the index of refraction of glass is 1.50 and the index of refraction of silicon monoxide is 2.00. The wavelength light of 480 nm.

If [tex]\lambda {c}[/tex] is the wavelength in the coating and λ is the wavelength in vacuum, then  [tex]\lambda_{c} = \dfrac {\lambda}{n}[/tex]  where n is the index of refraction of the coating.

Thus, the minimum coating thickness [tex]T_{min}[/tex] can be calculated as,

[tex]2T_{min} = (m+\dfrac {1}{2})\times\dfrac {\lambda} {n}\\\\T_{min} = (m+\dfrac {1}{2}) \times\dfrac {\lambda} {2n}[/tex].

For the constructive interference, m = 0.

So [tex]T_{min} = \dfrac {\lambda} {4n}[/tex]

[tex]T_{min} = \dfrac {480\rm nm} {4\times2.0}[/tex]

[tex]T_{min} = 60[/tex]

The minimum coating thickness needed to ensure that light of wavelength 480 nm and of perpendicular incidence will be reflected from the two surfaces of the coating with fully constructive interference is 60.

Answer:

Explanation:

On rubbing a glass rod with silk, the electrons from the glass rod get transferred to the silk. The silk now has an excess of electrons and so is negatively-charged. On the other hand, the glass rod is deficient in electrons and hence is positively-charged.

In the above case, the silk undergoes negative electrification.

Now, when the positively charged glass rod is touched on the disc of a negatively charged gold leaf electroscope, the electrons shifts towards rod, hence amount of charge on gold leaves decreases and the divergence between the gold leaves decreases as unlike charges attract each other.

Hence, the divergence decreases when a glass rod rubbed with silk is brought near the disc of negatively charged electroscope.

Answer:

Pressure

Explanation:

One of the theories propounded by the Kinetic molecular theory, and which also provides an explanation of the several gas laws, is the statement that the gas molecules in a container, travel in straight lines and are in constant collision with themselves and the walls of the container, thus exerting force. This force is the pressure which is defined as the force per unit area.

There is no loss of energy in the collisions involving the gas molecules and that is why their movement can be described as elastic. The descriptions of the behavior of gas molecules in the Kinetic Molecular Theory, give rise to Charles law, Boyle's Law, Avogadro's Laws, Dalton's Law, and Amonton's Law.

Answer:

The pressure

Explanation:

Molecules of gases are constantly in motion, colliding with the walls of their container. This constant collision impacts force on the walls of the container, which depends on the speed with which the molecules are moving. The speed with which these molecules travel depends on the average kinetic energy of the molecules, which is proportional to the temperature.

This force when exerted per unit area is the pressure the gases exert on the walls of the container.

4) Electric current in ampere (A)

5) Temperature in kelvin (k)

6) Luminous intensity in candela (cd)

7) Mass in kilogram (kg)

Explanation:

The ratio of the areas is the square of the ratio of the radii.

A/A = 3.16² = 9.99

The ratio of the volumes is the cube of the ratio of the radii.

V/V = 3.16³ = 31.6

Answer:

It will fall at the same speed in both locations

Explanation:

When an object is falling, it is accelerated to the same degree irrespective of the height from which it is falling.

All objects on the earth's surface experience an acceleration due to gravity. This acceleration due to gravity is the same for all objects irrespective of their height or mass.

Hence for a stone dropped from the same height as Terai and the top of a mountain, the acceleration due to gravity is the same in both cases hence they will fall at the same speed.

Answer:

The pressure at the bottom of the river is less than that at the bottom of the lake.

Explanation:

From Bernoulli's equation, the pressure difference is given by

ΔP = ρgΔh + ρ(v₂² - v₁²)/2 where ρ = density of water, g = acceleration due to gravity, Δh = depth, v₁ = velocity at top, v₂ = velocity at bottom

For the lake, v₁ = v₂, since the velocity at the top and bottom are the same. So,

ΔP₁ = ρgΔh + ρ(v₁² - v₁²)/2 = ρgΔh + 0 = ρgΔh

P₂ - P₁ = ρgΔh

P₂ = P₁ + ρgΔh

For the river, v₁ < v₂, since the velocity at the top of the river is greater than at the bottom.

So,

ΔP₂ = ρgΔh + ρ(v₂² - v₁²)/2.

Since  v₁ < v₂, ρ(v₂² - v₁²)/2 will be negative,

So,

ΔP₂ = ρgΔh - ρ(v₂² - v₁²)/2.

Since ρ(v₂² - v₁²)/2 is negative, making ΔP less than that in the lake.

So, ΔP₂ = ΔP₁ -  ρ(v₂² - v₁²)/2.

ΔP₂ = P₃ - P₁

P₃ - P₁ = P₂ - P₁ -  ρ(v₂² - v₁²)/2.

P₃ = P₂ - ρ(v₂² - v₁²)/2.

where P₃ = pressure at bottom of the river and P₂ = pressure at bottom of the lake and P₁ = atmospheric pressure at top of river and lake respectively.

Since the factor ρ(v₂² - v₁²)/2 is removed from the pressure at the bottom of the lake, the pressure at the bottom of the river is therefore less than that at the bottom of the lake.

Explanation: Right on edge2021

Answer:

10.44° per sec

Explanation:

Initial angular speed N = 2 rotations per minute

converting to rad/s ω = 2πN/60 = (2 x 3.142 x 2)/60 = 0.21 rad/s

the initial radius of the disk = 16 cm = 0.16 m

final radius = 17 cm = 0.17 m

Angular momentum = [tex]I[/tex]ω

where [tex]I[/tex] = rotational inertia = mass x [tex]radius^{2}[/tex]

ω = angular speed

For the initial case

[tex]I[/tex] = m x [tex]0.16^{2}[/tex] = 0.0256m

Angular momentum = 0.0256m x 0.21 = 0.0054m

For second case

[tex]I[/tex] = m x [tex]0.17^{2}[/tex] = 0.0289m

Angular momentum = 0.0289m x ω = 0.0289mω

For conservation of rotational momentum, initial angular momentum must be equal to the final angular momentum

0.0054m = 0.0289mω

m cancels out, we have

0.0054 = 0.0289ω

ω = 0.187 rad/s

converting back to rpm, we have

N = 0.187/2π = 0.029 rotations per sec

0.029 x 360 = 10.44° per sec

Answer:

12.3 m/s

Explanation:

The Doppler equation describes how sound frequency depends on relative velocities:

fr = fs (c + vr)/(c + vs),

where fr is the frequency heard by the receiver,

fs is the frequency emitted at the source,

c is the speed of sound,

vr is the velocity of the receiver,

and vs is the velocity of the source.

Note: vr is positive if the receiver is moving towards the source, negative if away.

Conversely, vs is positive if the receiver is moving away from the source, and negative if towards.

Given:

fs = 894 Hz

fr = 926 Hz

c = 343 m/s

vs = 0 m/s

Find: vr

926 = 894 (343 + vr) / (343 + 0)

vr = 12.3

The speed of the car is 12.3 m/s.

Answer:

The factor that determines the mechanical advantage (or ideal mechanical advantage (IMA) - in the absence of frictional forces) in a simple machine is the ratio perpendicular distance of the applied force to the fulcrum to the perpendicular distance of the load to the fulcrum

The mechanical advantage can therefore by larger than 1 (requiring less force per load), or equal to 1 (effort equal to load) or less than 1( effort more than load)

Explanation:

The efficiency of a machine is the ratio of its output to its input. The efficiency shows how effective the machine by the way it converts the input energy into work. The higher the efficiency of the machine the more effective it is. The efficiency is usually less than 1.

Given that the machine uses diesel oil (input) that can produce 3.0 x 10⁹ J of energy while the work performed by the machine (output) is 2.7 x 10⁸ J. The efficiency is given as:

Efficiency = output / input = 2.7 x 10⁸ J / 3.0 x 10⁹ J = 0.09 = 9%

This means that the machine is not effective because of its low efficiency

Explanation:

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

For a first order instrument with a sensitivity of .4 mV/K

constant c  = 25 ms = 25 × 10⁻³ s

The initial temperature [tex]T_1[/tex] = 273 K

The final temperature [tex]T_2[/tex] = 473 K

The initial volume = 0.4 mV/K × 273 K = 109.2 V

The final volume =  0.4 mV/K × 473 K =  189.2 V

the instrument’s response as a function of time for a sudden temperature increase can be computed as follows:

Let consider y to be the function of time i.e y(t).

So;

y(t) = 109.2  + (189.2 - 109.2)( 1 - [tex]\mathbf{e^{-t/c}}[/tex])mV

y(t) = (109.2 +  80 ( 1 - [tex]\mathbf{e^{t/25\times 10^{-3}}}[/tex])) mV

Plot the response y(t) as a function of time.

The plot of y(t) as a function of time can be seen in the diagram  attached below.

What are the units for y(t)?

The unit for y(t) is mV.

Find the 90% rise time for y(t90) and the error fraction,

The 90% rise time for y(t90) is as follows:

Initially 90% of 189.2 mV = 0.9 ×  189.2 mV

=  170.28 mV

170.28 mV = (109.2 +  80 ( 1 - [tex]\mathbf{e^{t/25\times 10^{-3}}}[/tex])) mV

170.28 mV - 109.2 mV = 80 ( 1 - [tex]\mathbf{e^{t/25\times 10^{-3}}}[/tex])) mV

61.08 mV =  80 ( 1 - [tex]\mathbf{e^{t/25\times 10^{-3}}}[/tex])) mV

0.7635  mV = ( 1 - [tex]\mathbf{e^{t/25\times 10^{-3}}}[/tex])) mV

t = 1.44 × 25  × 10⁻³ s

t = 0.036 s

t = 36 ms

The error fraction = [tex]\dfrac{189.2-170.28 }{189.2}[/tex]

The error fraction = 0.1

The error fraction = 10%
