Electric motors require electricity to move the motor parts and do work (like an electric fan).

Elecgric generators actually burn diesel fuel to spin a motor around and around and around to GENERATE, or MAKE, electricity that you can then use to power your fans and lights in your house.

-- Both devices have mechanical processes going on OUTside,
and electrical and magnetic processes going on INside.

-- Electric motors are intended to accept electrical energy as their
input, and to deliver useful mechanical energy as their output.

-- Electric generators are intended to accept mechanical energy as
their input, and to deliver useful electrical energy as their output.

Depending on their internal design, some styles of each device
can be used "backwards", to function as the other one.

A proton is located at <3 x 10^-10> m. What is r, the vector from the origin to the location of the proton
Eduardwww [97]

Complete Question

A proton is located at <3 x 10^{-10}, -5*10^{-10}  , -5*10^{-10}> m. What is r, the vector from the origin to the location of the proton

Answer:

The  vector position is   \=r=

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  position of the proton is m

Generally the vector location of the proton is mathematically represented as

       \= r =

So substituting values

     \=r=

The International Space Station has a mass of 1.8 × 105 kg. A 70.0-kg astronaut inside the station pushes off one wall of the st
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

a = 5.83 \times 10^{-4} m/s^2

Explanation:

Since the system is in international space station

so here we can say that net force on the system is zero here

so Force by the astronaut on the space station = Force due to space station on boy

so here we know that

mass of boy = 70 kg

acceleration of boy = 1.50 m/s^2

now we know that

F = ma

F = 70(1.50) = 105 N

now for the space station will be same as above force

F = ma

105 = 1.8 \times 10^5 (a)

a = \frac{105}{1.8 \times 10^5}

a = 5.83 \times 10^{-4} m/s^2
