The correct answer to the question is : B) Generator.

EXPLANATION:

As per the question, the mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy.

All the power plants like thermal power plant, nuclear power plant and hydroelectric power plant use the same concept to produce electric energy.

Let us consider hydro power plant.

In hydro power plant, the water falling with high speed is allowed to fall on a turbine. The kinetic energy of the water rotates the turbine. The turbine is attached to a generator.

The coil of wire attached to it is rotated through a magnetic field and electricity is produced due to electromagnetic induction.

Hence, the correct answer to the question is generator which converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.

You stare at a bright red screen for so long that your red cones become saturated and no longer function. The red screen is then

adell [148]

Answer: you'll see cyan color on the screen

Explanation:

Saturating the red cone causes them to stop functioning, hence you can't perceive the red part of white light. White light is made up of three main colors which are blue, red and green. When one can no longer perceive the red part of light, one is left with the grean and blue part. The green and blue part of light will superimpose to give a cyan color.

The standard wave format for any wave is wave. When depicting wave in standard wave format, the direction of motion must be rota

german

Answer:

Transverse wave and Longitudinal wave and Electromagnetic wave

Explanation:

An inverted wave is a wave in which the vibrations of the particles are perpendicular to the direction of wave motion.
Longitudinal waves, on the other hand, are waves in which the vibrations of the particles are parallel to the direction of wave motion.
Electromagnetic waves are waves that do not require medium media for transmission, including radio waves, microwaves, UV lights, etc.
Most electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature.

The tires on your truck have 0.35 m radius. In a straight line, you drive 2600 m. What is the angular displacement of the tire,

Travka [436]

1) In a circular motion, the angular displacement $\theta$ is given by
$\theta = \frac{S}{r}$
where S is the arc length and r is the radius. The problem says that the truck drove for 2600 m, so this corresponds to the total arc length covered by the tire: $S=2600 m$ . Using the information about the radius, $r=0.35 m$ , we find the total angular displacement:
$\theta = \frac{2600 m}{0.35 m} =7428 rad$

2) If we put larger tires, with radius $r=0.60 m$ , the angular displacement will be smaller. We can see this by using the same formula. In fact, this time we have:
$\theta = \frac{2600 m}{0.60 m}=4333 rad$
