Explanation:

We know that a changing magnetic field induces a current in a conductor. For that reason a generator basically consist an element that produces a magnetic field that changes over time and a conductor where the current will be induced.

This element that produces a magnetic field can be one of the following:

- A permanent magnet: Which is basically like a regular magnet. The magnetic field that a permanent magnet produces does not change over time, we need a motor or any other external force to move the axis of the generator and cause the magnetic field to change.

- An electro-magnet. Which is basically a DC current flowing through a conductor. Basically, when current flows through a conductor it behaves exactly like a magnet. So what we commonly do, is to connect a conductor to a DC battery, and it will create a magnetic field.

Like we are using a DC battery to create a magnetic field, then the magnetic field won't change over time either. So we still need an external force to move the axis of the generator to produce AC electricity.

I'm walking 1.6m/s to 7-11 and it started to rain so I sped up to 2.7m/s in 1.2

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

$a = \frac{v_f-v_0}{t}$ which is the final velocity minus the initial velocity in the numerator, and the change in time in the denominator. For us:

$a=\frac{2.7-1.6}{1.2}$ so

a = .92 m/s/s (NOT negative because you're speeding up)

A 4 cm diameter "bobber" with a mass of 3 grams floats on a pond. A thin, light fishing line is tied to the bottom of the bobber

Tasya [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

Calculate the volume of the lead

$V=\frac{m}{d}\\\\=\frac{10g}{11.3g'cm^3}$

Now calculate the bouyant force acting on the lead

$F_L = Vpg$

$F_L=(\frac{10g}{11.3g/cm^3} )(1g/cm^3)(9.8m/s^2)\\\\=8.673\times 10^{-3}N$

This force will act in upward direction

Gravitational force on the lead due to its mass will act in downward direction

Hence the difference of this two force

$T=mg-F_L\\\\=(10\times10^{-3}kg(9.8m/s^2)-8.673\times 10^{-3}\\\\=8.933\times10^{-3}N$

If V is the volume submerged in the water then bouyant force on the bobber is

$F_B=V'pg$

Equate bouyant force with the tension and gravitational force

$F_B=T_mg\\\\V'pg=\frac{(8.933\times10^{-2}N)+mg}{pg} \\\\V'=\frac{(8.933\times10^{-2}N)+mg}{pg}$

Now Total volume of bobble is

$\frac{V'}{V^B} =\frac{\frac{(8.933\times10^{-2})+Mg}{pg} }{\frac{4}{3} \pi R^3 }\times100\\\\=\frac{\frac{(8.933\times10^{-2})+(3)(9.8)}{(1000)(9.8)} }{\frac{4}{3} \pi (4.0\times10^{-2})^3 }\times100\\\\$

= $\large\boxed{4.52 \%}$

A container is filled with an ideal diatomic gas to a pressure and volume of P1 and V1, respectively. The gas is then warmed in

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

The change is as follows

P₁ V₁ to 3P₁, V₁ ( constt volume ) --- first process

3P₁,V₁ to 3P₁ , 5V₁ ( constt pressure ) ---- second process

In the first process Temperature must have been increased 3 times . So if initial temperature is T₁ then final temperature will be 3 T₁

P₁V₁ = n R T₁ , n is no of moles of gas enclosed.

nRT₁ = P₁V₁

Heat added at constant volume = n Cv ( 3T₁ - T₁)

= n x 5/3 R X 2T₁ ( for diatomic gas Cv = 5/3 R)

= 10/3 x nRT₁

= 10/3x P₁V₁

In the second process, Temperature must have been increased 5 times . So if initial temperature is 3T₁ then final temperature will be 15 T₁

Heat added at constant pressure in second case

= n Cp ( 15T₁ - 3T₁)

= n x 7/3 R X 12T₁ ( For diatomic gas Cp = 7/3 R)

= 28 x nRT₁

= 28 P₁V₁
