Answer:

An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of rotation of a shaft. Electric motors can be powered by direct current (DC) sources, such as from batteries, motor vehicles or rectifiers, or by alternating current (AC) sources, such as a power grid, inverters or electrical generators. An electric generator is mechanically identical to an electric motor, but operates in the reverse direction, converting mechanical energy into electrical energy.

Electric motors may be classified by considerations such as power source type, internal construction, application and type of motion output. In addition to AC versus DC types, motors may be brushed or brushless, may be of various phase (see single-phase, two-phase, or three-phase), and may be either air-cooled or liquid-cooled. General-purpose motors with standard dimensions and characteristics provide convenient mechanical power for industrial use. The largest electric motors are used for ship propulsion, pipeline compression and pumped-storage applications with ratings reaching 100 megawatts. Electric motors are found in industrial fans, blowers and pumps, machine tools, household appliances, power tools and disk drives. Small motors may be found in electric watches.

In certain applications, such as in regenerative braking with traction motors, electric motors can be used in reverse as generators to recover energy that might otherwise be lost as heat and friction.

Electric motors produce linear or rotary force (torque) intended to propel some external mechanism, such as a fan or an elevator. An electric motor is generally designed for continuous rotation, or for linear movement over a significant distance compared to its size. Magnetic solenoids produce significant mechanical force, but over an operating distance comparable to their size. Transducers such as loudspeakers and microphones convert between electrical current and mechanical force to reproduce signals such as speech. When compared with common internal combustion engines (ICEs), electric motors are lightweight, physically smaller, provide more power output, are mechanically simpler and cheaper to build, while providing instant and consistent torque at any speed, with more responsiveness, higher overall efficiency and lower heat generation. However, electric motors are not as convenient or common as ICEs in mobile applications (i.e. cars and buses) as they require a large and expensive battery, while ICEs require a relatively small fuel tank.

A train travelling at 20m/s undergoes a uniform deceleration of 2m/s2 when brakes are applied.. calculate the time taken to come
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

a) 10 seconds

b) 100 meters

Explanation:

<u>Accelerated Motion </u>

If an object is moving at contant speed, we know it has zero net force applied. As soon as an unbalanced force appears, the object accelerates (positive or negative) depending on the direction of the force with respect to movement. The speed of an object subject to acceleration is given by

v_f=v_o+at

The distance traveled is given by

\displaystyle x=v_ot+\frac{at^2}{2}

a)

Our train is travelling at 20m/s when it decelerates at -2\ m/s^2 (negative for it's against movement). If nothing else happens, it will eventually stop (v_f=0). We can compute the time at which it happens :

\displaystyle t=\frac{v_f-v_o}{a}

Knowing\ v_f=0

\displaystyle t=\frac{-20}{-2}=10\ sec

b)

The distance traveled is

\displaystyle x=v_ot+\frac{at^2}{2}

\displaystyle x=(20)(10)-\frac{2(10)^2}{2}

\displaystyle x=100\ m

What formula can be used to calculate [H30+]?
elena-s [515]

[H3O+] is just the same with [H+]. There are quite a few relationships between [H+] and [OH−] ions. And because there is a large range of number between 10 to 10-15 M, the pH is used. pH = -log[H+] and pOH = -log[OH−]. In aqueous solutions, [H+ ][OH- ] = 10-14.
