Answer:
Exercise 1;
The centripetal acceleration is approximately 94.52 m/s²
Explanation:
1) The given parameters are;
The diameter of the circle = 8 cm = 0.08 m
The radius of the circle = Diameter/2 = 0.08/2 = 0.04 m
The speed of motion = 7 km/h = 1.944444 m/s
The centripetal acceleration = v²/r = 1.944444²/0.04 ≈ 94.52 m/s²
The centripetal acceleration ≈ 94.52 m/s²
Answer:
It is easier to scale the voltage of AC from high to low and low to high than with DC
Explanation:
typically power is used far away from the place where it's generated so to ensure that transmission losses( copper losses) are minimized voltage has to be stepped up during transmission..but due to the fact that most house hold equipment requires low voltage levels it has to be stepped down once it reaches a household/ domestic load...it's easier to do this for Ac than for DC.
Answer:
Micro and radio waves.
Lower energy.
Gamma rays.
Explanation:
The electromagnetic spectrum is the range of frequencies of electromagnetic radiation and their respective wavelengths.
Ionising radiation os defined as the energy required of photons of a wave to ionize atoms, causing chemical reactions.
The energy of the wave depends on both the amplitude and the frequency. If the energy of each wavelength is a discrete packet of energy, a high-frequency wave will deliver more of these packets per unit time than a low-frequency wave. In summary, the longer the wavelength, the lower the energy to ionise.
The velocity of a wave is directly proportional to the frequency of that wave.
c = f * lambda
Where,
c = velocity of the wave
f = frequency of the wave = 1/time
Lambda = wavelength.
From the above expression, the longer the wavelength, lambda the shorter the frequency.
Examples of waves with longer wavelengths are, micro and radio waves, while radiations with shorter wavelengths like gamma rays.
Answer:
(a) gravitational potential energy converted to kinetic energy
(b) chemical energy is converted to light or heat energy
(c) mechanical energy is converted into kinetic energy
Answer/solution:
Given :
Mass =5kg
T 1 =20 C,T 2 =100 ∘C
ΔT=100−20=80 ∘C
Q=m×C×ΔT
where C= specific heat capacity of water
=4200J/(kgK)
Q=5×4200×80
=1680000 Joule.
=1680KJ
