Explanation:

Rectifier diodes are used in power supplies to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), a process called rectification. They are also used elsewhere in circuits where a large current must pass through the diode.

A spring is used to launch a coffee mug. The 20cm long spring can be compressed by a maximum of 8cm. The mug has a mass of 500 g
Otrada [13]

Answer:

7664.06249 N/m

Explanation:

m = Mass of mug = 0.5 kg

x = Compression of spring = 0.08 m

h = Height of fall = 5 m

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

The kinetic energy of the spring and potential energy of the fall are conserved

\frac{1}{2}kx^2=mgh\\\Rightarrow k=\frac{2mgh}{x^2}\\\Rightarrow k=\frac{2\times 0.5\times 9.81\times 5}{0.08^2}\\\Rightarrow k=7664.06249\ N/m

The spring constant of the spring is 7664.06249 N/m

Samuel applies a horizontal force of 35.0 N to a sleigh over a distance of 1.50 m along a level surface. Calculate the work done
Ronch [10]

Answer:

52.5 J

Explanation:

Work done (W) is the product of the force (F) applied on a body and the distance (s) moved in the direction of the force.

i.e W = F × s

It is a scalar quantity and measured in Joules (J).

Given that: F = 35.0 N and s = 1.50 m, then;

W = F × s

W = 35.0 × 1.5

   = 52.5 J

Therefore, the work done on the sleigh by Samuel is 52.5 J.
