Answer:

He is testing for voltage drop (voltage drop test)

Explanation:

Connecting the red lead of a voltmeter to the B+ output to an ac generator and black lead to a battery +ve terminal measures the voltage drop in the circuit when the engine is turned ON and all electrical accessories too.

with this he knows if the alternator is charging the battery.

A 920-kg compact car moving at 92 m/s has approximately 3,893,440 Joules of kinetic energy. What is the change in kinetic energy
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Change in kinetic energy = 3297280 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass, m = 920 kg

Speed of a car, v = 92 m/s

Kinetic energy, K = 3,893,440 J

If the speed of a car, V = 36 m/s

Net kinetic energy is given by :

K_n=\dfrac{1}{2}mV^2\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 920\times (36)^2\\\\K_n=596160\ J

The change in kinetic energy = 3,893,440 - 596160

= 3297280 J

So, the change in kinetic energy of the car is 3297280 J.

What separates the terrestrial planets from the jovian or gas planets in space?
Flura [38]
In our solar system, terrestrial planets are separated from the gas giants by the asteroid belt. The asteroid belt is a region in the solar system between Mars and Jupiter where asteroids are located. Gas giants do not have a solid surface and possible a small rocky core. The gas giants are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The first four planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars.

A space vehicle is traveling at 2980 km/h relative to Earth when the exhausted rocket motor is disengaged and sent backward. The
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

3054.4 km/h

Explanation:

Using the conservation of momentum

momentum before separation = 5M × 2980 Km/h where M represent the mass of the module while 4 M represent the mass of the motor

initial momentum = 14900 M km/h

let v be the new speed of the motor so that the

new momentum = 4Mv and the new momentum of the module  = M ( v + 94 km/h )

total momentum = 4Mv + Mv + 93 M = 5 Mv + 93M

initial momentum = final momentum

14900 M km/h = 5 Mv + 93M

14900 km/h = 5v + 93

14900 - 93 = 5v

v = 2961.4 km/h

the speed of the module = 2961.4 + 93 = 3054.4 km/h

Physics question i appreciate your help please
den301095 [7]

Solution: From the given question, we shall find the vector quantity among the

(A) Time , (B) Velocity, (C) Distance , (D) Speed

Concept: <u>Vector Quantity: </u>All those physical quantities which have magnitude as well as specific directions, are called Vector Quantities.

Here, Time, Distance and Speed have only magnitude but have no directions so they will be scalar quantities.

Now, <u>Velocity:</u> It is defined as the change in displacement per unit time. Since the change in the displacement will be in particular direction only. Hence, velocity will be the vector quantity.

Hence, the option (B) Velocity will be the correct option.
