What is electricity?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:Electricity is the flow of electrons. All matter is made up of atoms, and an atom has a center, called a nucleus. When electrons are "lost" from an atom, the free movement of these electrons constitutes an electric current. Electricity is a basic part of nature and it is one of our most widely used forms of energy.

Explanation:

Moving mass m = 4.0Kg

Momentum P = 20.0Kgm/s

Speed V = ?

Momentum = product of mass and its velocity

P = mV

V = P

m

V = 20

4

V = 5m/s

The ball's speed is 5 m/s.

What is speed?

Speed is distance travelled by the object per unit time. Due to having no direction and only having magnitude, speed is a scalar quantity With SI unit meter/second.

Given parameters:

Mass of the ball; m = 4.0Kg

Momentum of the ball; P = 20.0Kgm/s

We have to find; the speed of the ball; v = ?

We know that: Momentum of the ball = product of mass and its speed

⇒ P = mv

⇒ v = P/m

⇒ v = 20.0/4.0 m/s.

⇒ v = 5m/s

Hence, the speed of the ball is 5 m/s.

Ella jogs down the street with a speed of 12 m/s. What is her kinetic energy if her mass is 58 kg?

Answers

Answer:

4176 J

Explanation:

Ella speed (V) = 12 m/s, Mass = 58 kg.

Kinetic energy of a body is the energy it possesses as a result of its motion. It is the energy (work) needed to cause a given body to move from rest to its final velocity. It is measured in Joules. The kinetic energy of a body is the same until its velocity changes.

Kinetic energy = 1/2 × m × V²

Kinetic energy = 0.5 × 58 × 12² = 4176 J

In laboratorio, versi in un tubo a U acqua da una estremità e olio dall'altra. Le densità dell'olio e dell'acqua sono, rispettivamente, 890 kg/m^3 e 1010 kg/m^3. L'altezza della colonna d'acqua è 18 cm. ▶ A che altezza arriva l'olio nell'altro ramo del tubo? ▶ Quanto vale la differenza fra i livelli superiori dell'acqua e dell'olio nei due rami?

Answers

Answer:

20.4 cm; 2.4 cm  

Explanation:

The formula for the pressure p exerted by a column of a liquid with density ρ and height h is

p = ρgh

where h = the acceleration due to gravity

If you have two liquids balancing each other in a U-tube

     p₁ = p₂

ρ₁gh₁ = ρ₂gh₂

 ρ₁h₁ = ρ₂h₂

Data:

ρ₁ = 1010 kg/m³; h₁ = 18 cm

ρ₂ = 890 kg/m³; h₂ = ?          

1. Height of oil column

We measure from the horizontal red line.

[tex]\begin{array}{rcl}\rho_{1}h_{1} & = &\rho_{2}h_{2}\\\text{1010 kg/m}^{3} \times \text{18 cm} & = & \text{890 kg/m}^{3} \times h_{2}\\\text{18 180 cm} & = & 890h_{2}\\h_{2} & = & \dfrac{\text{18180 cm}}{890}\\\\ & = & \text{20.4 cm}\\\end{array}\\ \text{The height of the oil column is $\textbf{20.4 cm}$}[/tex]

2. Height of oil above water

h₂ - h₁ = 20.4 cm – 18 cm = 2.4 cm

Two trains on parallel tracks are traveling in the same direction. One train starts 10 km behind the other. It overtakes the first train in 2 hours . What is the relative speed of the second train with respect to the first train?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]v'=v_2-v_1=5\frac{km}{h}[/tex]

Explanation:

The relative speed between the trains is given by:

[tex]v'=v_2-v_1[/tex]

v1: speed of the first train

v2: speed of the second train

To find the relative velocity you write the equation of motion of both train by taking into account the information of the statement. The trains have constant velocity. Furthermore, the second train stars 10 km behind the other one. hence you have:

[tex]x=10+v_1t\\\\x=v_2t[/tex]

for t = 2 hours, the positions of both trains are equal, thus you have:

[tex]10+v_1t=v_2t[/tex]

you factor v2 - v1 from the last equation and replace t = 2h:

[tex]10=v_2t-v_1t\\\\10=(v_2-v_1)t\\\\v_2-v_1=\frac{10}{t}=\frac{10}{2}=5 \frac{km}{h}[/tex]

Hence, you have that the relative velocity is:

[tex]v'=v_2-v_1=5\frac{km}{h}[/tex]

A mass of 15 X 10^5 kg is held at a position 9 m away from a mass of 20 X 10^6 kg. What is the gravitational attraction between the two masses?

Answers

Answer:

The gravitational attraction between the two masses is 24.7 N.

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of object 1, [tex]m_1=15\times 10^5\ kg[/tex]            

Mass of object 2, [tex]m_2=20\times 10^6\ kg[/tex]

So, the gravitational attraction between the two masses is 24.7 N.

Muitos remédios são tomados em doses menores que o mg. Um comprimido de certo remédio tem 0,025 mg de uma certa substância. Com 1 kg desta substância, quantos comprimidos podem ser feitos?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The question is asked in portuguese

Hence, it will be answered in portuguese

1kg = 1000g

e

1 g = 1000mg

então

1 kg = 1 x (1000 x 1000)

1 kg = 1x 1.000.000

1 kg = 1.000.000mg

assim

 1 comprimido -------------> 0,025 mg

 x  comprimido ------------> 1.000.000 mg   ( só cruzar)

0,025(x) = 1(1.000.000)

0,025x = 1.000.000

x = 1.000.000/0,025

x = 40.000.000

1kg são feitos 40.000.000( Quarenta milhões de comprimidos)

b) A madeira é carregada positivamente quando esfregada com seda.

c) A madeira é carregada negativamente quando esfregada contra o marfim.

Explanation:

English Translation

According to the sequence of substances listed in the table opposite, if we rub glass with wool it will be positively charged. what will be the charge of the wood when rubbed with a) wool? b) silk? c) ivory?

Solution

What will happen when two materials are rubbed on each other is due to the sequence on the static electricity table, with the materials arranged based on their tendencies to rub off electrons from one another.

Materials lower on the table can rub off electrons from materials higher on the table, thereby making the higher material positively charged.

a) Wood and Wool

Wood is higher than wool on this table, hence, wool easily rubs off electrons from the surface of the wood and leaves the wood with an overall more positive charges. Wood is positively charged after this.

b) Wood and Silk

Wood is higher than silk on this table, hence, silk easily rubs off electrons from the surface of the wood and leaves the wood with an overall more positive charges. Wood is positively charged after this.

c) Wood and Ivory

Wood is lower than ivory on this table, Hence, wood rubs off electrons from the surface of the ivory material and the overall charges on the wood is more negative. Wood is negatively charged after this.

In Portugese/Em português

O que acontecerá quando dois materiais forem esfregados um no outro é devido à sequência na tabela de eletricidade estática, com os materiais organizados com base em suas tendências de esfregar elétrons um do outro.

Os materiais mais baixos da mesa podem remover elétrons dos materiais mais altos da mesa, tornando o material mais alto carregado positivamente.

a) Madeira e lã

A madeira é mais alta que a lã nesta tabela; portanto, a lã retira facilmente elétrons da superfície da madeira e deixa a madeira com uma carga geral mais positiva. A madeira é carregada positivamente depois disso.

b) Madeira e seda

A madeira é mais alta que a seda nesta tabela; portanto, a seda retira facilmente elétrons da superfície da madeira e deixa a madeira com uma carga geral mais positiva. A madeira é carregada positivamente depois disso.

c) Madeira e Marfim A madeira é mais baixa que o marfim nesta tabela. Portanto, a madeira elimina elétrons da superfície do material de marfim e as cargas gerais na madeira são mais negativas. A madeira é carregada negativamente depois disso.

a) Speed of Car and Distance Traveled

Direct

Since, speed = (distance)(time)

Therefore, for constant time, Speed α Distance

b) No. of People at Party and Amount of Food Consumed

Direct

Since,

Food Consumed = (Food Consumed by 1 Person)(No. of People at Party)

Therefore, for constant amount of food consumed by 1 person,

Food Consumed α No. of People at Party

c) Elevation above Sea Level and Air Temperature

Inverse

The relation between altitude and air temperature is not constant. It changes in every layer of the atmosphere. So, if we only talk about the first layer, that is, Troposphere. Then the relation between elevation above sea level and air temperature is:

Air Temperature α 1/Elevation Above Sea Level

As, the elevation increases the air temperature decreases.

d) Distance of a Planet from Sun and Period of Revolution

Direct

According to Kepler's Law:

Period of Revolution α (Distance from Sun)^1.5

e) Temperature of a Bowl of Soup and Time

Inverse

Since, the initial temperature of soup is higher than the surrounding. Thus it loses heat to the surrounding with time. As a result the temperature of the soup decreases with time.

Therefore,

Temperature of Bowl of Soup α 1/Time

A 2.0 c charge moves with a velocity of (2.0i+4.0j+6.0k)m/s and experiences a magnatic force of (0.4i-20j+12k)N. The x component of the magnatic field is equal to zero. Determine the y component of the magnatic field

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\vec{B}_{y}=6T[/tex]

Explanation:

Here we can use the Lorentz force equation.

[tex]\vec{F}_{B}=q(\vec{v}\times \vec{B})[/tex]

We know:

v is the velocity (2.0i+4.0j+6.0k) m/sF is the magnetic force (0.4i-20j+12k) NB is the magnetic force (ai+bj+ck) Tq is the charge 2 C

So we will have:

[tex] (0.4i-20j+12k)=2((2.0i+4.0j+6.0k) \times (ai+bj+ck))[/tex]  

Let's solve the cross product, knowing that x component of B is 0, it means a=0.

[tex] (0.4i-20j+12k)=2((2.0i+4.0j+6.0k) \times (0i+bj+ck))[/tex]  

[tex] (0.4i-20j+12k)=2((4c-6b)i-2cj+2bk)[/tex]  

Comparing the k component we have:

[tex]12=2b [/tex]

[tex]b=6 [/tex]            

If we see b is the y-component of the magnetic field, therefore [tex]\vec{B}_{y}=6T[/tex]

I hope it helps you!

Answer:

-0.033 units

Explanation:

According to Lorentz force law, the magnetic force, F, on a moving charge, q, moving with a velocity, v, in a magnetic field, B, is given by;

F = q v x B   ----------------(i)

Where;

F, v and B are vectors. Therefore, equation (i) represents a vector product of the velocity and magnetic field vectors.

From the question;

v = (2.0i + 4.0j + 6.0k)m/s

F = (0.4i - 20j + 12k)N

q = 2.0C

Let the magnetic field vector be given by;

B = ai + bj + ck               ---------------------(*)

Where;

a, b and c are the magnitudes of the x, y and z components of the magnetic field.

Substitute the values of F, v, B and q into equation (i) as follows;

(0.4i - 20j + 12k) = 2.0(2.0i + 4.0j + 6.0k) x (ai + bj + ck)

Expanding the second bracket gives

(0.4i - 20j + 12k) = (4.0i + 8.0j + 12.0k) x (ai + bj + ck)          ---------------(ii)

Solving the right hand side of equation (ii) which is the vector product gives;

                                       |                                       |

                                       |  i               j                 k |

 (0.4i - 20j + 12k) =        |  4.0         8.0         12.0  |

                                      |  a             b                 c  |

                                      |                                        |

(0.4i - 20j + 12k)  = (8.0c - 12.0b)i - (4.0c -12.0a)j + (4.0b - 8.0a)k      ----(iii)

Comparing both sides of equation (iii) gives the following three equations;

0.4 = 8.0a - 12.0b           --------------------(iv)

-20 = 4.0c - 12.0a          ---------------------(v)

12 = 4.0b - 8.0a             ----------------------(vi)

From the question, it is given that the x component of the magnetic field is equal to zero. Now, recall that from equation (*) above, the magnitude of the x-component of the magnetic field is given as a

Therefore;

a = 0

To get the y component, which is b, substitute the value of a = 0 into equation (iv) as follows;

0.4 = 8.0(0) - 12.0b

0.4 = 0 - 12.0b

0.4 = - 12.0b

Solve for b;

b = [tex]\frac{-0.4}{12.0}[/tex] = -0.033

Therefore the y component of the magnetic field is -0.033 units
