At what location in a circuit is the electrical potential energy the greatest

1 answer:

4 0

It's not the potential energy. It's just the potential.

It's greatest at the positive terminal of the battery or power supply.

Noble Gases do not readily form compounds because they ___ chemically stable with 8 valence electrons

azamat

Answer : Noble Gases do not readily form compounds because they are chemically stable with 8 valence electrons.

Explanation :

Noble gases are the chemical elements that are present in group 18 in the periodic table.

The elements are helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon.

They are chemically most stable except helium due to having the maximum number of 8 valence electrons can hold their outermost shell that means they have a complete octet.

They are rarely reacts with other elements to form compounds by gaining or losing electrons since they are already chemically stable.

Hence, the noble Gases do not readily form compounds because they are chemically stable with 8 valence electrons.

If you connected 10 of these 12V (10 W) lamps in parallel, to the 12V source, how much current would the source have to supply

Flauer [41]

Answer:

$T=8.33A$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Number of battery $n=10$

Voltage source $E=12V$

Lamp Power $P=10W$

Generally the equation for Resistance is mathematically given by

$R=\frac{V^2}{P}$

$R=\frac{12^2}{10}$

$R=14.4ohms$

Therefore

$R_{eq}=\frac{14.4}{10}$

$R_{eq}=1.44$

Generally the equation for Current is mathematically given by

$T=\ffrac{V}{Req}$

$T=\frac{12}{1.44}$

$T=8.33A$

A rigid tank contains nitrogen gas at 227 °C and 100 kPa gage. The gas is heated until the gage pressure reads 250 kPa. If the a

aleksley [76]

Answer:

T₂ =602 °C

Explanation:

Given that

T₁ = 227°C =227+273 K

T₁ =500 k

Gauge pressure at condition 1 given = 100 KPa

The absolute pressure at condition 1 will be

P₁ = 100 + 100 KPa

P₁ =200 KPa

Gauge pressure at condition 2 given = 250 KPa

The absolute pressure at condition 2 will be

P₂ = 250 + 100 KPa

P₂ =350 KPa

The temperature at condition 2 = T₂

We know that

$\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2}{P_1}\\T_2=T_1\times \dfrac{P_2}{P_1}\\T_2=500\times \dfrac{350}{200}\ K\\$

T₂ = 875 K

T₂ =875- 273 °C

T₂ =602 °C

Calculate the potential energy of a body of a mass 2kg held 4 meters above the ground if g=10m/s?

Drupady [299]

Answer:

16000

Explanation:

Mass(m)=2Kg (1kg= 1ooo g then 2 kg=2000 g)

Velocity(v)= 4 meter

Acceleration due to gravity (g)=10m/s

We know that,

P.E= 1/2 mv^2

or, 1/2 × 2ooo × 4^2

or, 1/2×2000 ×16

or, 2000×8

Therefore= 16000

A rock is dropped off a cliff and falls the first half of the distance to the ground in 2.0 seconds. how long will it take to fa

son4ous [18]

Answer:

The answer is 0.83 seconds.

Explanation:

The formula of free fall is following:

$h=1/2*g*t^2$

Where g=9.8 m/s^2 and t=2 seconds, the rock takes:

$h=1/2*9.8*2^2=19.6$

19.6 meters. This is the half distance of the cliff. The whole distance is 39.2 meters. So it takes:

$39.2=1/2*9.8*t^2\\t^2=8\\t=2.83$

2.83 second to fall down completely. The rock takes the second half of the cliff in 0.83 seconds
