A/An _____ is described as a device used to store electrical energy, usually two conductors separated by an insulator.

Daniel [21]

Answer: A capacitor.

Explanation:

The capacitor is a passive element that is used in electronics to store electrical energy maintaining an electrical field. The simpler case of a capacitor is the parallel plates capacitor.

It consists of two parallel metal plates separated by a distance D, in this case, the air between the plates works as a dielectric, as the plates do not touch each other and are separated by a dielectric, the charge is stored in the surface plates.

There are a lot of other types of capacitors, the most used in actuality may be the cylindrical one, where instead of parallel plates, it uses two concentric cylinders, and the space between the cylinders is filled with a dielectric/insulator.

A lamp hangs from the ceiling at a height of 2.6 m. The lamp has a mass of 3.8 kg. The screws holding the lamp break, and it fal

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given height of lamp from the ceiling = 2.6m

mass of the lamp = 3.8kg

acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s²

As the body falls to the ground, it falls under the influence of gravity.

Gravitational potential energy = mass*acc due to gravity * height

Gravitational potential energy = 3.8*2.6*9.81

Gravitational potential energy = 96.923 Joules

b) Kinetic energy = 1/2 mv²

m = mass of the body (in kg)

v = velocity of the body (in m/s²)

To get the velocity v, we will use the equation of motion $v^{2} = u^{2}+2gh$

$v^{2} = 0^{2}+2(9.81)(2.6) \\v^{2} = 51.012\\v =\sqrt{51.012}\\ v = 7.14m/s$

Since mass = 3.8kg

$K.E = 1/2 * 3.8 *7.14^{2}\\ K.E = 96.86Joules$

c) To know how fast the lamp is moving when it hits the ground, we will use the formula. When the body hits the ground, the height covered will be 0m. this means that the body is not moving once it hits the ground. It stays in one position. The energy possessed by the body at this point is potential energy. The correct answer is therefore 0 m/s

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

F = 6666.7 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a chip, m = 0.1 mg

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed, $v=4\times 10^{3}\ m/s$

Time of collision, $t=6\times 10^{-8}\ s$

We know that,

Force, F = ma

Put all the values,

$F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\F=\dfrac{0.1\times 10^{-6}\times (4\times 10^3-0)}{6\times 10^{-8}}\\\\F=6666.7\ N$

So, the required force is 6666.7 N.

An object with a mass of 78kg is lifted through a height of 6 meters. How much work is done?

g100num [7]

Work = force x distance.

force = mass x acceleration

work = mass x acceleration x diastance

use acceleration of gravity in this problem

W (J) = m (kg) x a (m/s/s) x d (m)
W = 78 x 9.8 x 6
W = 4586.4
