Explain how electric motors convert electrical energy to mechanical energy​
alexdok [17]

Answer:

\rightarrow Electric motors build energy through the interaction between magnetic fields.

Magnetic fields may be generated by passing a current through a wire. Winding that wire into a coil intensifies the sector. Wrapping the coil around an iron core can intensify it more. One is going to be of the coil are North, the other South. Reverse the flow of current through the coil. The magnetic poles can swap. Place 2 separate coils close to one another and organize them therefore one turns whereas the opposite is fastened. Then build arrangements for this within the moving coil to reverse even as the opposite poles are about to line up.

the video identifies the force pair produced when an apple falls through the air. which force belongs in a free-body diagram of
trapecia [35]

The free-body diagram of an apple falling through the air has weight of the apple pointing downwards and the air-resistance on the apple acting upwards.

When an object falls from up to the ground, the object falls under in the influence of acceleration due to gravity.

The vertical component of the force on the apple as it falls trough the air is given as;

∑Fy = 0

Fₙ - W = 0

Fₙ = W

where;

  • <em>Fₙ is the frictional force on the apple acting upwards</em>
  • <em>W is the weight of the apple acting downwards</em>

The free-body diagram of the apple is represented as follows;

                                         ↑ Fₙ

                                         Ο

                                         ↓ W

Thus, the free-body diagram of an apple falling through the air has weight of the apple pointing downwards and the air-resistance on the apple acting upwards.

26. A 40 kg boy jumps from a height of 4m onto a plate-form mounted on springs. As the
denpristay [2]

Answer:

c. 1600J

Explanation:

The loss in potential energy of the boy is given by:

U=mg \Delta h

where

m = 40 kg is the mass of the boy

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

\Delta h = 4 m + 0.02 m = 4.02 m is the total change in the height of the boy (4 metres + 2 cm due to the compression of the spring)

Substituting, we find

\Delta U = (40 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(4.02 m) = 1577 J \sim 1600 J

Suppose a car traveling at 8m/s is brought to rest in a distance of 20m.what is it's deceleration and time taken.
LiRa [457]

Answer:

         Time - taken = 2.5 s

          deceleration= -8 m/s²

Solution:

            Given:

                     speed, v = 8 m/s

                 distance, d = 20m

                     

              To Find:

                     deacceleration = ?

               

               As we know speed is defined as

                          v = d/t

                plugging in the values

                          t =  20/ 8

                          t = 2.5s

                Now from deceleration formula

                        a =  - v/ t

                        a = - 20/ 2.5

                        a = - 8 m/s²

          Thus, the time taken and acceleration is 2.5 s and -8 m/s²

          respectively.
