Physics

Answer:

A battery is a device that stores chemical energy and converts it to electrical energy.

The chemical reactions in a battery involve the flow of electrons from one material (electrode) to another, through an external circuit.

The flow of electrons provides an electric current that can be used to do work.

To balance the flow of electrons, charged ions also flow through an electrolyte solution that is in contact with both electrodes.

Different electrodes and electrolytes produce different chemical reactions that affect how the battery works, how much energy it can store and its voltage.

A ball is thrown upward. At a height of 10 meters above the ground, the ball has a potential energy of 50 joules (with the poten
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

 h = 20 m

Explanation:

given.

height, h = 10 m

Potential energy at 10 m = 50 J

Kinetic energy at 10 m = 50 J

maximum height the ball will reach, H = ?

Total energy of the system

T E = 50 J + 50 J

T E = 100 J

now,

A h = 10 m

P E = m g h

50 = m g x 10

mg = 5 ..............(1)

at the top most Point the only Potential energy will be acting on the body.

now, TE = Potential energy

 100 = m g h

5 h = 100

 h = 20 m

hence, the maximum height reached by the ball is equal to 20 m.

A car speeding down the highway honks its horn, which has a frequency 392 Hz, but a resting bystander hears the frequency 440 Hz
Natali [406]

Answer:

37.42 m/s

Explanation:

We know that apparent frequency, \bar f is given by

\bar f=f\frac {V}{V-V_s} where f is the given frequency in this case 392, V is the speed of sound in air which is given as 343 and V_s is the speed of car which is unknown, \bar f is given as 440 Hz

440=392\times \frac {343}{343-V_s}\\343-V_s=392\times \frac {343}{440}=305.5818182\\V_s=343-305.5818182=37.41818182\approx 37.42 m/s
