Differences:

An electrical motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy,where as a generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.

The principle of a electric motor if there is a change of the magnetic field across a conductor electrons are forced to move in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field,where as in a generator if a charge is moving in a magnetic field, a force acts on the charge in a direction perpendicular to both the velocity of the charge and the magnetic field.

similarities:

Both electric motor and generator work on the magnetic effects of electric current.

Both have the armatures to rotate the loop.

If a t-shirt gun can fire t-shirts with an initial speed of 15 m/s, what is the maximum distance (along horizontal, flat ground)

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

h = 11.47 m

Explanation:

Initial speed pf the t-shirt gun is 15 m/s

We need to find the maximum distance covered by the t-shirt. It is based on the conservation of energy. The maximum distance covered is given by :

$h=\dfrac{u^2}{2g}\\\\h=\dfrac{(15)^2}{2\times 9.8}\\\\h=11.47\ m$

So, it will cover a distance of 11.47 m.

In odd nuclei, what determines the final spin of the nucleus?

Katen [24]

Answer:

In odd nuclei, the left out proton or neutron will contribute to the spin of the nucleus.

Explanation:

The meaning of odd nuclei is atomic mass is odd.

A=odd number.

A=Z+n

Here, Z is proton either it will odd or n will odd which is neutron.

Now according to the shell model the left out proton or neutron will contribute to the spin and parity.

For example,

Take the case of isotope of nitrogen-15.

Here Z is 7, and n is 8 will not contribute in spin.

Now, for Z=7.

$1S^{2} _{\frac{1}{2} }, 1P^{4} _{\frac{3}{2} }, 1P^{1} _{\frac{1}{2} }$

Here,

$j=\frac{1}{2}$

and, L=1.

Fort parity,

$(-1)^{L}$

Put the value of L.

Parity will be -1.

Now, spin will be

$S=(\frac{1}{2} )^{-1}$ .

A Carnot air conditioner takes energy from the thermal energy of a room at 70°F and transfers it as heat to the outdoors, which

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Hot temperature

T_H = 96°F

From Fahrenheit to kelvin

°K = (°F - 32) × 5/9 + 273

°K = (96 - 32) × 5/9 + 273

K = 64 × 5/9 + 273 = 35.56 + 273

K = 308.56 K

T_H = 308.56 K

Low temperature

T_L = 70°F

Same procedure to Levine

T_L = (70-32) × 5/9 + 273

T_L = 294.11 K

A carnot refrigerator working between a hot reservoir and at temperature T_H and a cold reservoir and at temperature T_L has a coefficient of performance K given by

K = T_L / (T_H - T_L)

K = 294.11 / (308.56 - 294.11)

K = 294.11 / 14.45

K = 20.36

Then, the coefficient of performance is the energy Q_L drawn from the cold reservoir as heat divided by work done,

So, for each joules W = 1J

K = Q_L / W

Then,

Q_L = K•W

Q_L = 20.36 × 1

Q_L = 20.36 J

Q_L ≈ 20J

So, approximately 20J of heats are removed from the room
