Answer:  b) TRUE and d) TRUE

Explanation:  a) FALSE the electric field lines are used to represent the charges postives and negatives.

b) TRUE it is the definition of  electric field lines , they are tangent to the electric field vector.

c) FALSE  the electric field lines only for conductor are perpendicular to the surface in other any situation there is a tangencial electric field components.

d) TRUE since it is a way to describe and imagine the effect of vectorial fields.

e) FALSE

A car horn emits a frequency of 400 Hz. A car traveling at 20.0 m/s sounds the horn as it approaches a stationary pedestrian. Wh
Temka [501]

Answer:

The observed frequency by the pedestrian is 424 Hz.

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the source, Fs = 400 Hz

speed of the car as it approaches the stationary observer, Vs = 20 m/s

Based on Doppler effect, as the car the approaches the stationary observer, the observed frequency will be higher than the transmitted (source) frequency because of decrease in distance between the car and the observer.

The observed frequency is calculated as;

F_s = F_o [\frac{v}{v_s + v} ] \\\\

where;

F₀ is the observed frequency

v is the speed of sound in air = 340 m/s

F_s = F_o [\frac{v}{v_s + v} ] \\\\400 = F_o [\frac{340}{20 + 340} ] \\\\400 = F_o (0.9444) \\\\F_o = \frac{400}{0.9444} \\\\F_o = 423.55 \ Hz \\

F₀ ≅ 424 Hz.

Therefore, the observed frequency by the pedestrian is 424 Hz.

If a force of 12 N is applied to an object
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 3 kg</h3>

Explanation:

The mass of the object can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{f}{a}  \\

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

m =  \frac{12}{4}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>3 kg</h3>

Hope this helps you

An advanced computer sends information to its various parts via infrared light pulses traveling through silicon fibers (n = 3.50
sasho [114]

Answer:

d = 6.43 cm

Explanation:

Given:

- Speed resistance coefficient in silicon n = 3.50

- Memory takes processing time t_p = 0.50 ns

- Information is to be obtained within T = 2.0 ns

Find:

- What is the maximum distance the memory unit can be from the central processing unit?

Solution:

- The amount of time taken for information pulse to travel to memory unit:

                            t_m = T - t_p

                            t_m = 2.0 - 0.5 = 1.5 ns

- We will use a basic relationship for distance traveled with respect to speed of light and time:

                           d = V*t_m

- Where speed of light in silicon medium is given by:

                           V = c / n

- Hence,              d = c*t_m / n

-Evaluate:           d = 3*10^8*1.5*10^-9 / 3.50

                           d = 0.129 m 12.9 cm

- The above is the distance for pulse going to and fro the memory and central unit. So the distance between the two is actually d / 2 = 6.43 cm

a battery is connected to a resistor. as charge flows, the chemical energy of the battery is dissipated as _________.
balandron [24]

As charge flows, the chemical energy of the battery is dissipated as the time of charge flow increases.

Electric power is defined as the rate at which electric energy is dissipated.

The power of the current flowing through the circuit is calculated as follows;

P = IV

P = I x IR

P = I²R

where;

  • <em>P is the power dissipated</em>
  • <em>I is the current flowing in the circuit</em>
  • <em>R is the resistance of the circuit</em>

The electric energy is given as;

E = Pt

E = I²Rt

Thus, we can conclude that as charge flows, the chemical energy of the battery is dissipated as the time of charge flow increases.
