Electricity may be categorized as static or current. how are these two types of energy different

Hello!

Static electricity occurs due to an imbalance in positively and negatively charged atoms. An example of this is when you take your clothes out of the dryer, and feel a slight sting when touching them. Another example of static electricity is lightning.

Current electricity occurs when there is a constant flow of electrons, such as in plug-operated machinery or anything operated using a battery. :)

If all of the forces acting on an object are balanced, then:

kondaur [170]

A. the direction the object is moving in will not change.

B. the acceleration of the object will be 0 m/s2

Explanation:

We can answer this problem by using Newton's second law of motion:

$\sum F = ma$

where

$\sum F$ is the net force acting on an object

m is the mass of the object

a is its acceleration

In this problem, all the forces acting on the object are balanced, therefore the net force is zero:

$\sum F=0$

which means that also the acceleration is zero:

$a=0$

Acceleration is equal to the rate of change of velocity: therefore, zero acceleration means that the velocity of the object does not change. We can now analyze the given statements:

A. the direction the object is moving in will not change. --> TRUE, because the velocity is not changing.

B. the acceleration of the object will be 0 m/s2 --> TRUE, as we stated above

c. the object will not be in motion. --> FALSE: we just know that its velocity is constant, but it can be different from zero

D. the velocity of the object will be 0 m/s. --> FALSE, for the same reason stated in C

The term "ideal gas" refers to a gas for which certain assumptions have been made. Which of the following is not such an assumpt

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

(A) Consists of a small number of tiny particles that are far apart- relative in their size.

Explanation:

An ideal gas is defined as a simplification of a real gas, with punctual particles, in which all collisions are elastic, with random displacements and with no attractive force between them.

The assumption of the particles being punctual make clear that they do not have size at all. So if they were far apart-relative in their size, they can not collide each other, that is why assumption (B) can not be possible (for that particular case).

It is clear that (A) is not an assumption for an ideal gas, because do not fit in any of its properties.

Elastic collision: It is a case in which the energy is conserved (Kinetic Energy).

Kinetic Energy: It is the energy that will have an object as a consequence of its movement.

Two capacitors, a 15 micro F and a 25 micro F, are connected in parallel to a 60 Hz source. The total capacitive reactance is :_

Stells [14]

Answer:

3980.89 ohms

Explanation:

The capacitive reactance is expressed as;

$X_c = \frac{1}{2 \pi fC}$

f is the frequency

C is the capacitance of the capacitor

Given

f = 60H

C = C1+C2 (parallel connection)

C = 15μF + 25μF

C = 40μF

C = $40 * 10^{-6}F$

Substitute into the formula:

$X_c = \frac{1}{2(3.14)*60*40*10^{-6}}\\X_c = \frac{1}{0.0002512}\\X_c = 3,980.89$

Hence the total capacitive reactance is 3980.89 ohms
