Answer:

Slower

Explanation:

Slower because the air would be pushing you back, and the other person would be walking faster because they are being pushed forward by the wind

Technician A says that current is created in the stator windings of an alternator. Technician B says that the voltage regulator
drek231 [11]

Answer:

Technician A and Technician B both are right.

Explanation:

In an AC alternator,  there are two windings

1. Stator winding (stationary)

2. Rotor winding (rotating)

The current is induced in the stationary coils due to the magnetic field produced by the rotor. The DC suppy is provided to the rotor winding via slip rings and brushes and a voltage regulator precisely controls this supply to control the current flow through the rotor.

Therefore, both technicians are right.

A sound source is moving at 80 m/s toward a stationary listener that is standing in still air (a) Find the wavelength of the sou
Setler [38]

Answer:

a. wavelength of the sound, \vartheta = 1.315\vartheta_{o}

b. observed frequecy, \lambda = 0.7604\lambda_{o}

Given:

speed of sound source, v_{s} = 80 m/s

speed of sound in air or vacuum, v_{a} = 343 m/s

speed of sound observed, v_{o} = 0 m/s

Solution:

From the relation:

v = \vartheta \lambda        (1)

where

v = velocity of sound

\vartheta = observed frequency of sound

\lambda = wavelength

(a) The wavelength of the sound between source and the listener is given by:

\lambda = \frac{v_{a}}{\vartheta }         (2)

(b) The observed frequency is given by:

\vartheta = \frac{v_{a}}{v_{a} - v_{s}}\vartheta_{o}

\vartheta = \frac{334}{334 - 80}\vartheta_{o}

\vartheta = 1.315\vartheta_{o}                (3)

Using eqn (2) and (3):

\lambda = \frac{334}{1.315} = \frac{1}{1.315}\frac{v_{a}}{\vartheta_{o}}

\lambda = 0.7604\lambda_{o}

When two or more capacitors are connected in series across a potential difference:
34kurt

Answer:

A) and B) are correct.

Explanation:

Let's take a look at the attached picture. Now

The total voltage across both capacitors is the same as the sum of the voltage from each device, that statement is true for any electrical device connected in series. So a) is TRUE

The equivalent capacitance is going to be: \frac{1}{C_{total}}=\frac{1}{C_1} +\frac{1}{C_2}

And that value can be mathematically proven that is always less than any of the values of each capacitor. So b is TRUE

And through both capacitors flow the same current, but the amount of charge depends on the value of the capacitors, so only could be the same if the capacitors are the same value. Otherwise, don't. C) not always, so FALSE

A basketball player grabbing a rebound jumps 76.0 cm vertically. How much total time (ascent and descent) does the player spend
Viefleur [7K]

a) we can answer the first part of this by recognizing the player rises 0.76m, reaches the apex of motion, and then falls back to the ground we can ask how

long it takes to fall 0.13 m from rest: dist = 1/2 gt^2 or t=sqrt[2d/g] t=0.175

s this is the time to fall from the top; it would take the same time to travel

upward the final 0.13 m, so the total time spent in the upper 0.15 m is 2x0.175

= 0.35s

b) there are a couple of ways of finding thetime it takes to travel the bottom 0.13m first way: we can use d=1/2gt^2 twice

to solve this problem the time it takes to fall the final 0.13 m is: time it

takes to fall 0.76 m - time it takes to fall 0.63 m t = sqrt[2d/g] = 0.399 s to

fall 0.76 m, and this equation yields it takes 0.359 s to fall 0.63 m, so it

takes 0.04 s to fall the final 0.13 m. The total time spent in the lower 0.13 m

is then twice this, or 0.08s
