Answers

Answer 1
A transformer is a device that increases or decreases voltage. t/f 

The answer is: True my dude
Answer 2

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

A transformer is used either to increase or decrease the voltage.

It has two separate sets of coils of wire. The coils connected to the input voltage are called  primary and the output coils are called  secondary.

If number of windings (or coils) of wire in primary are less than the windings in secondary, it is a step up transformer because output voltage will be more than the input voltage. In this case the output voltage given out by the secondary will be more than the primary.

If the primary coils are more than the secondary, it is called a step down transformer. In this case, secondary voltage (output voltage) will be less than the primary.

A metallic object is given a positive charge by the process of induction, as illustrated in Figure 18.8. (a) Does the mass of the object increase, decrease, or remain the same? Why? (b) What happens to the mass of the object if it is given a negative charge by induction? Explain.

Answers

a. In the process of induction, metal objects are positive because electrons are pushed out of the object to the earth. The mass of the object decreases by an amount equal to the mass of the electrons leaving the metal object.

b. During the induction process, electrons are drawn from the earth to the object, so that the metal object becomes negative. The mass of the object increases by an amount equal to the mass of "excess" electrons dragged onto the object.

In a circuit of two lamps in parallel there is 5 v across one lamp. what is the voltage across the other lamp? answer in units of v.

Answers

The voltage across the other lamp is also 5 V.
In fact, when two resistances are connected in parallel, they are connected to the same points of the circuit. This also means that the potential difference across the two sides of the resistors is the same, therefore the voltage across the two lamps connected in parallel is 5 V for both.

Advise how volta specifically can patent its its (first in the world and novel) clean energy engine.

Answers

Volta specifically can patent in clean energy engine novel in as it has to fulfill the three criteria.
1. It should be useful.
2. It should be unique or new in the market.
3. It should be non-obvious which is easily recognizable. 
It is easy to understand. The three qualities are being possessed by novel VOLTa as the concept is very new and it will be very beneficial for the world or public.

Final answer:

In advising Volta on patenting a clean energy engine, it is essential to consider thermodynamic laws, which preclude the possibility of engines that produce more energy than used or have 100% efficiency, and acknowledge the efficiency limits set by the Carnot cycle.

Explanation:

When considering a patent for a novel clean energy engine, it is important to understand fundamental principles of thermodynamics, which would challenge the claim of an engine running by burning hydrogen that allegedly produces more energy than it uses. Such a system would violate the second law of thermodynamics, as it implies perpetual motion or over-unity efficiency, which is physically impossible because it would create energy from nothing. Likewise, claiming a 100% efficient motor also breaks this immutable law of physics, as all systems produce waste heat due to inefficiencies.

A typical gasoline car engine cannot achieve 100% efficiency due to these losses through heat, friction, and sound, among other factors. The theoretical efficiency ceiling for a gasoline engine is dictated by the Carnot cycle, which is typically less than 45% for a combustion engine. In terms of adopting clean energy technologies like geothermal power and vehicles running on electric or hydrogen fuel cells, it is important to approach these with a balanced view, recognizing both the environmental benefits and the practical limitations or challenges of these technologies.

A hot water heater is operated by using solar power. if the solar collector has an area of 5.3 m2 , and the power delivered by sunlight is 995 w/m2 , how long will it take to increase the temperature of 1 m3 of water from 20 ◦c to 65 ◦c? the specific heat of water is 4186 j/kg · ◦ c and the density of water is 1000 kg/m3 . answer in units of h.

Answers

Heat absorbed by the solar collector = Area*Irradiance = 5.3*995 = 5273.5 W

Heat Q in joules absorbed in t hours = Heat used to heat water. That is,

5273.5*t = mCΔT; where mass = volume*density = 1*1000 = 1000 kg

Therefore;
5273.5t = 1000*4186*(65-20) = 188370000
t = 188370000/5273.5 = 35720.11 seconds = 35720.11/(60*60) hours ≈ 9.92 hours.

It will take approximately 9.92 hours.

Answers

A ground wire provides a conducting path to the earth which is separate and independent from the path of an electrical appliance. Also, a ground wire is an additional pathway for an electric current to safely return to the ground without imposing danger to anyone in the event that a short circuit might occur. This is particularly important for shock hazard since it forces the breaker to trip by supplying a path to the ground if ever a hot wire comes in contact with a metal case of the appliance.

A fuses and circuit breakers limit the current which can possibly flow in a circuit. The metal filament present in the fuse will melt and break the connection. On the other hand, the circuit breaker with its bimetallic strip's heating effect causes a bending and tripping of a spring-loaded switch.

about the rerms2

A car moves along a curved road of diameter 2 km. If the maximum velocity for safe driving on this path is 30 m/s, at what angle has the road been banked? (Ignore friction.)

Answers

The maximum velocity in a banked road, ignoring friction, is given by;

v = Sqrt (Rg tan ∅), where R = Radius of the curved road = 2*1000/2 = 1000 m, g = gravitational acceleration = 9.81 m/s^2, ∅ = Angle of bank.

Substituting;
30 m/s = Sqrt (1000*9.81*tan∅)
30^2 = 1000*9.81*tan∅
tan ∅ = (30^2)/(1000*9.81) = 0.0917
∅ = tan^-1(0.0917) = 5.24°

Therefore, the road has been banked at 5.24°.

Final answer:

To calculate the bank angle for a curve of diameter 2 km (radius 1 km) to be driven at 30 m/s without relying on friction, the physics concepts of centripetal force and gravitational force component due to the bank angle are applied.

Explanation:

In this scenario, the safety of driving on a curved road relies on the balance between the inward centripetal force required for the car to maintain its curved path and the normal force exerted by the road on the car. The normal force acts perpendicular to the road surface and has both horizontal and vertical components.

To find the angle at which the road is banked, we first calculate the centripetal force required for the car to negotiate the curve safely. This force is given by the formula [tex]\( F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r} \)[/tex], where [tex]\( m \)[/tex] is the mass of the car, [tex]\( v \)[/tex]is the velocity of the car, and [tex]\( r \)[/tex] is the radius of the curve. Given that the diameter of the road is 2 km, the radius[tex]\( r \)[/tex]is half of this distance.

Once we determine the centripetal force, we recognize that it must be balanced by the horizontal component of the normal force. The vertical component of the normal force counteracts gravity. Therefore, the angle at which the road is banked can be found by taking the inverse tangent of the ratio of the centripetal force to the gravitational force.

By calculating this angle, we can determine the angle at which the road must be banked to safely accommodate the car's velocity while moving along the curved path. In this case, the calculated angle is approximately [tex]\( 5.22^\circ \).[/tex]

Extend your thinking: household appliances are usually connected in a parallel circuit. why do you think it might be a problem if too many appliances are turned on at once? (hint: current in a wire also produces heat.)

Answers

The equivalent resistance of several devices connected in parallel is given by
[tex] \frac{1}{R_{eq}} = \frac{1}{R_1}+ \frac{1}{R_2}+...+ \frac{1}{R_n} [/tex]
where [tex]R_i[/tex] are the resistances of the various devices. We can see that every time we add a new device in parallel, the term [tex] \frac{1}{R_{eq}} [/tex] increases, therefore the equivalent resistance of the circuit [tex]R_{eq}[/tex] decreases.

But Ohm's law:
[tex]I= \frac{V}{R_{eq}}[/tex]
tells us that if the equivalent resistance decreases, the total current in the circuit increases. The power dissipated through the circuit (and so, the heat produced) depends on the square of the current:
[tex]P=I^2 R[/tex]
therefore if there are too many devices connected in parallel, this can be a problem because there could be too much power dissipated (and too much heat) through the circuit.

There might be a problem of a lot of power being dissipated if too many

appliances are turned on at once.

We can infer from Ohm's law that as resistance decreases, the total current increases.

I= V/R

The power dissipated through the circuit is directly proportional to the square

of the current.

P= I²R

We can therefore state that the power dissipated via heat will be much when

too many appliances are turned on at once.

A person on earth would weigh a lot more on the sun due to increased ________________. gravity mass atoms energy

Answers

The correct answer is: gravity.

The complete sentence is:
"A person on earth would weigh a lot more on the sun due to increased gravity"

In fact, the weight of a person is given by
[tex]F=mg[/tex]
where m is the mass of the person, while g is the gravitational acceleration. While the mass m of the person does not change moving from Earth to the Sun, the gravitational acceleration g does depend on the mass of the planet/star. In fact:
[tex]g= \frac{GM}{r^2} [/tex]
where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the planet/star, r is its radius. Due to the fact that the mass of the sun is huge compared to the Earth's mass, the gravitational acceleration at the Sun's surface is much more than the gravitational acceleration at Earth's surface, so a person would weigh much more on the Sun than on Earth.

(by comparison, the value of g at the Sun's surface is approximately 28 times the value of g at Earth's surface).

So that we find
[tex]K=3.00 eV \cdot 1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} eV/J =4.8 \cdot 10^{-19}J[/tex]

The kinetic energy of the electron is related to its momentum p by:

Which color in the visible spectrum has the highest frequency?

Answers

Which color in the visible spectrum has the highest frequency?

The color in the visible spectrum that has the highest frequency is the violet. 

Violet waves have the most energy of the visible spectrum.

Remember:  c=fλ

Therefore:  f=c/λ

Here c is the speed of light in a vacuum.

So:

As wavelength decreases, frequency increases and, as E=hf, where h is constant (Planck's constant), so does the energy that the waves carry. Waves with a short wavelength have the most energy.

Red waves have a relatively long wavelength (in the 700 nm range), and violet waves are much shorter - roughly half that.

Because violet waves have the shortest wavelength of the visible light spectrum, they carry the most energy.

Violet is the color in the visible spectrum that has the highest frequency. (option b)

The visible spectrum consists of various colors that we can see with our eyes, ranging from red to violet. Each color corresponds to a specific wavelength of light. Wavelength is the distance between consecutive peaks (or troughs) of a wave. The frequency of a wave, on the other hand, refers to how many waves pass a particular point in space per unit of time.

The relationship between frequency (f), wavelength (λ), and the speed of light (c) can be described by the equation:

c = f × λ

where c is the speed of light in a vacuum (approximately 3 × 10^8 meters per second), f is the frequency, and λ is the wavelength.

As per this equation, the higher the frequency of light, the shorter the wavelength. Conversely, the lower the frequency, the longer the wavelength.

To calculate the change in length of the steel deck of the Humber Bridge when the temperature increases you need to use the linear thermal expansion formula: [tex]\(\Delta L = \alpha L_0 \Delta T\),[/tex] where [tex]\(\Delta L\)[/tex]is the change in length, \(\alpha\) is the coefficient of thermal expansion for steel [tex](\12 x 10^-6 /\u2103\), \(L_0\)[/tex] is the original length of the steel structure, and \(\Delta T\) is the change in temperature.

First, find the change in temperature: [tex]\(18.5 \u2103 - (-3.0 \u2103) = 21.5 \u2103\).[/tex]

Then, use the given length of the Humber Bridge span (1410 meters) and plug these values into the equation:

[tex]\(\Delta L = (12 x 10^{-6}/\u2103)(1410 m)(21.5 \u2103)\)[/tex]

By doing the calculation:

[tex]\(\Delta L = 0.362 m\)[/tex]

When a bow an arrow is fired, how does the size of the force of the bow on the arrow compare of the arrow on the bow

Answers

Stated by Newton's 2nd Law of Motion, the arrow will exert an equal force on the bow as the bow exerts on the arrow. So if the bow applies 2 Newtons of force on the arrow, the arrow will apply 2 Newtons of force back on the bow.

Final answer:

The force of the bow on the arrow is equal and opposite to the force of the arrow on the bow, complying with Newton's Third Law. The energy to shoot an arrow comes from converting kinetic energy to potential energy, and then back to kinetic energy upon release. Projectile range is affected by the angle of release and external factors like wind.

Explanation:

When a bow and arrow is fired, the size of the force of the bow on the arrow is equal to the size of the force of the arrow on the bow. This is due to Newton's Third Law of Motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. In terms of archery, when the archer releases the string, the potential energy stored in the bow is transferred to the arrow, propelling it forward. At the same time, the bow experiences an equal and opposite force.

Energy and Projectile Motion

The energy it takes to shoot an arrow involves converting kinetic energy from pulling the string into potential energy stored in the string. Upon release, this potential energy turns back into kinetic energy, which determines the speed and range of the arrow. For a fixed initial speed, the range of a projectile like an arrow is determined by the angle of release. The smaller angle is often preferable due to minimal air resistance and other factors like wind, while a larger angle may be useful to shoot over obstacles or reach longer distances, as with a football punter using a higher trajectory to maximize hang time.

In fact, Newton's second law states that the resultant of the forces acting on an object is equal to the product between the mass and the acceleration of the object:
[tex]\sum F = ma[/tex]
therefore, if there are no forces acting on the object, the term on the left is zero, and the acceleration of the object is zero as well. This means that the object will continue its motion with constant speed, and in the same direction.

What would the potential of a standard hydrogen electrode (s.h.e.) be under the given conditions? [h+]=0.70 mph2=2.4 atmt=298 k?

Answers

Constant = 8.314JK⁻¹mol⁻¹
T is for temperature which is 298K
Faraday constant value is 96500C/mol
n is the number of electrons which are transferred in the reaction.
Ecell = E₀cell - RT/nFiN [cathode]/[anode]
Ecell = E₀cell - RT/nF In [PH₂]/[H⁺]²
Ecell = 0.00-8.314 JK⁻¹ mol⁻¹ × 298k/ 2× 96500C/mol In [2.4atm]/ 0.70]²
Ecell = 0.00 - 0.0129 In (2.59)
Ecell = 0.00 - 0.0129 × 0.951
Ecell = -0.0122V
∴Ecell is = -o.0122v
