To determine the displacement, since we are given the potential energy, we use the equation for potential energy. For a spring, it is one-half the product of the spring constant and the square of the displacement. We do as follows:
PE = kx^2/2
5 Nm = 50N/m (x^2)
x = 0.32 m
Therefore, the displacement would be 0.32 m.
Answer:
Explanation:
You are looking for the resistance to start with
W = E * E/R
75 = 240 * 240 / R
75 * R = 240 * 240
R = 240 * 240 / 75
R = 57600 / 75
R = 768
Now let's see what happens when you try putting this into 110
W = E^2 / R
W = 120^2 / 768
W = 18.75
So the wattage is rated at 75. 18.75 is a far cry from that. I think they intend you to set up a ratio of
18.75 / 75 = 0.25
This is the long sure way of solving it. The quick way is to realize that the voltage is the only thing that is going to change. 120 * 120 / (240 * 240) = 1/2*1/2 = 1/4 = 0.25
Answer: B.
Capacitors prevent current from moving through a circuit
Explanation:
If a direct voltage is applied on the capacitor, no conduction current flows through the capacitor if its insulating medium is perfect insulator. This is due to the fact that there are no free charge carriers in such medium. Basically the real insulator contains very few charge carriers and therefore a very small leakage current passes in the capacitor depending on the conductivity of the insulator.
If an alternating voltage is applied on the capacitor, a displacement current passes through the capacitor irrespective of the insulating medium. This current is termed also the capacitive current. It flows because of changing electric displacement with time.
Answer:
Force = 3.333 Newton
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Change in momentum = 10 Kgm/s
Time = 3 seconds
To find the force acting on it;
In Physics, the change in momentum of a physical object is equal to the impulse experienced by the physical object.
Mathematically, it is given by the formula;
Force * time = mass * change in velocity
Impulse = force * time
Substituting into the formula, we have;
10 = force * 3
Force = 10/3
Force = 3.333 Newton
