Explain all the energy conversions that take place while using a cell phone.

Physics
1 answer:
zhuklara [117]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

#See solution for details.

Explanation:

-Chemical energy in the battery is converted into Electrical Energy which powers up the phone.

-The electrical energy is then converted to Light Energy when the phone is powered up, this is seen through the lightening up of the phone screen.

-During phone calls, the electrical energy is further converted to Sound Energy to allow for transmission of audio signals.

- As we continue to use the phone, the electrical energy is converted into heat energy which we feel due to an overheating battery.

-The cycle then repeats itself again whenever a phone is charged.

Examine the lightbulbs in the circuit below. Write a sentence explaining what would happen if lightbulb A burned out. Repeat thi
tatiyna

If the lightbulb A in the circuit shown in the image burned out, the path for the  current to flow is disrupted because one of its terminals is connected direct to the source. So, there will be no current through the lightbulbs B, C, and D, and they will turn off. Similarly it will happen, if the lightbulb D burned out.

If the lightbulb B burned out the current will continue circulating through the lightbulbs A, C, and D, because lightbulb B is connected in parallel. Similarly it will happen, if the lightbulb C burned out.

A car is traveling at 39.7 mi/h on a horizontal highway. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . If the coefficient of fricti
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

The minimum distance in which the car will stop is

x=167.38m

Explanation:

39.7\frac{mi}{h}*\frac{1km}{0.621371mi}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=17.747\frac{m}{s}

∑F=m*a

∑F=u*m*g

The force of friction is the same value but in different direction of the force moving the car so it can stop so

F=m*a\\a=\frac{F}{m}\\a=\frac{u*m*g}{m}\\a=u*g\\a=0.096*-9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }

a=-0.9408 \frac{m}{s^{2}}

v_{f}^{2}=v_{o}^{2}+2*a*(x_{f}-x_{o})\\v_{f}=0 \\x_{o}=0\\0=v_{o}^{2}+2*a*x_{f}\\x_{f}=\frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2*a} \\x_{f}=\frac{(-17.747\frac{m}{s})^{2}}{2*(-0.9408)} \\x_{f}=167.38m

If the rectangular barge is 3.0 m by 20.0 m and sits 0.70 m deep in the harbor, how deep will it sit in the river?
leva [86]

The harbour contains salt water while the river contains fresh water. So assuming that the densities of fresh water and salt water are:

density (salt water) = 1029 kg / m^3

density (fresh water) = 1000 kg / m^3

The amount of water (in mass) displaced by the barge should be equal in two waters.

mass displaced (salt water) = mass displaced (fresh water)

Since mass is also the product of density and volume, therefore:

<span>[density * volume]_salt water = [density * volume]_fresh water                 ---> 1</span>

 

First we calculate the amount of volume displaced in the harbour (salt water):

V = 3.0 m * 20.0 m * 0.70 m

V = 42 m^3 of salt water

Plugging in the values into equation 1:

1029 kg / m^3 * 42 m^3 = 1000 kg/m^3 * Volume fresh water

Volume fresh water displaced = 43.218 m^3

 

Therefore the depth of the barge in the river is:

43.218 m^3 = 3.0 m * 20.0 m * h

<span>h = 0.72 m        (ANSWER)</span>

denis-greek [22]

According to the research, the correct option is a. The heat generated from the fission reaction is used to boil water, which rises and spins a turbine.

<h3>How is fision used to produce electricity?</h3>

In fusion, two atoms come together to form a larger one, releasing enormous amounts of energy in the process, this is used by generators to produce electricity.

As a result of nuclear fusion, large amounts of heat are generated that are used to produce pressurized steam, which allows mechanical energy to be obtained to start up electric power generators.

Therefore, we can conclude that according to the research, the correct option is a. The heat generated from the fission reaction is used to boil water, which rises and spins a turbine.
