(Missing question is: which of the following statements are true?)

a) <span>A battery does work on electric charges to bring them to a position of higher electric potential energy so that they can flow through a circuit to a lower potential energy --> TRUE
That's true: the battery does the work to move the charges to one end of its terminal thus creating a potential difference between the two terminals. Then, when it is connected to the circuit, charges start to flow to the terminal at lower potential (through the circuit)

b) </span><span>the potential difference between the terminals of a battery, when no current flows to an external circuit, is referred to as the terminal voltage --> FALSE
This is false: when no current flows, it is called e.m.f. (electromotive force)

c) </span><span>the internal resistance of a battery decreases with decreasing temperature 
--> TRUE
In fact, the dependence of a resistance with the temperature is:
</span>R=R_0[1+\alpha (T-T_0)]
with \alpha being generally positive, therefore the value of the resistance is proportional to T, and when T decreases, R decreases as well.

<span>d) a battery is a device that produces electricity by transforming chemical energy into electrical energy --> TRUE
</span><span>That's true: a battery uses chemical reactions to create a potential difference between the two terminals that can be exploited to make charges flowing through a circuit.

A uniform sphere (I = 2/5 MR 2 ) rolls down an incline. (a) What must be the incline angle if the linear acceleration of the cen
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Part a)

\theta = 8.05 degree

Part b)

a = 1.37 m/s^2

Explanation:

As the uniform sphere is rolling down the inclined plane then the net force on the sphere is given as

mg sin\theta - F_f = ma

also we have torque equation on it

F_f R = I\alpha

for pure rolling

a = R \alpha

F_f = \frac{Ia}{R^2}

now we have

mg sin\theta = ma + \frac{Ia}{R^2}

now we have

mg sin\theta = (m + \frac{2}{5}m)a

a = \frac{5}{7}g sin\theta

now given that

a = 0.10 g

so we have

0.10 g = \frac{5}{7} g sin\theta

sin\theta = 0.14

\theta = 8.05 degree

Part b)

If the inclined plane is frictionless then the acceleration is given as

a = g sin\theta

a = 9.8(0.14)

a = 1.37 m/s^2

A displacement is a vector quantity that takes into account the shortest distance from the starting point to the endpoint. 

The given above gave a time interval in minutes which needs to be converted to seconds. Given that each minute is 60 seconds, 5 minutes equal 300 seconds. To determine the distance, multiply time with speed. The product is 225 m. 

Thus, the displacement is 225 m.

A piece of warm concrete is placed in a cold-water tank, and energy flows between the concrete and the water. Which way does the
sammy [17]

Answer:

Heat flows from hot to cold objects. When a hot and a cold body are in thermal contact, they exchange heat energy until they reach thermal equilibrium, with the hot body cooling down and the cold body warming up. This is a natural phenomenon we experience all the time.

The suspension cable of a 1,000 kg elevator snaps, sending the elevator moving downward through its shaft. The emergency brakes
tester [92]

Answer:

option (E) 1,000,000 J

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the suspension cable, m = 1,000 kg

Distance, h = 100 m

Now,

from the work energy theorem

Work done by the gravity = Work done by brake

or

mgh = Work done by brake

where, g is the acceleration due to the gravity = 10 m/s²

or

Work done by brake  = 1000 × 10 × 100

or

Work done by brake = 1,000,000 J

this work done is the release of heat in the brakes

Hence, the correct answer is option (E) 1,000,000 J
