Turning on a flashlight is what type of energy to what type of energy

1 answer:

8 0

Turning on a flashlight uses a battery, right? Chemical energy is stored in that battery. If you use the battery, you're converting that chemical energy to an electrical energy.

In a flashlight then, the electrical energy becomes light energy and thermal energy in the bulb. Why light and thermal? The flashlight gives us light and then, gives out heat. This is why when we touch light bulbs, it feels hot.

I hope you find this answer the most helpful! :)

A series AC circuit contains a resistor, an inductor of 150 mH, a capacitor of 5.00 mF, and a generator with DVmax 5 240 V opera

yanalaym [24]

Given:

Inductance, L = 150 mH

Capacitance, C = 5.00 mF

$\Delta V_{max}$ = 240 V

frequency, f = 50Hz

$I_{max}$ = 100 mA

Solution:

To calculate the parameters of the given circuit series RLC circuit:

angular frequency, $\omega$ = $2\pi f = 2\pi \times50 = 100\pi$

a). Inductive reactance, $X_{L}$ is given by:

$\X_{L} = \omega L = 100\pi \times 150\times 10^{-3} = 47.12\Omega$

$X_{L} = 47.12\Omega$

b). The capacitive reactance, $X_{C}$ is given by:

$\X_{C} = \frac{1}{\omega C} = \frac{1}{2\pi fC} = \frac{1}{2\pi \times 50\times 5.00\times 10^{-3}} = 0.636\Omega$

$X_{C} = 0.636\Omega$

c). Impedance, Z = $\frac{\Delta V_{max}}{I_{max}} = \frac{240}{100\times 10^{-3}} = 2400\Omega$

$Z = 2400\Omega$

d). Resistance, R is given by:

$Z = \sqrt {R^{2} + (X_{L} - X_{C})}$

$2400^{2} = R^{2} + (47.12 - 0.636)^{2}$

$R = \sqrt {5757839.238}$

$R = 2399.5\Omega$

e). Phase angle between current and the generator voltage is given by:

$tan\phi = \frac{X_{L} - X_{C}}{R}$

$\phi =tan^{-1}( \frac{X_{L} - X_{C}}{R})$

$\phi =tan^{-1}( \frac{47.12 - 0.636}{2399.5}) = tan^{-1}{0.0.01937}$

$\phi = 1.11^{\circ}$

Determine the thrust produced if 1.5 x 10^3 kg of gas exits the combustion chamber each second, with a speed of 4.00 x 10^3 m/s.

ozzi

Answer:

The thrust is $6\times 10^6\ N$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of gas, $m=1.5\times 10^3\ kg$

The rate at which the gas is expelling, $\dfrac{dv}{dt}=4\times 10^{3}\ m/s$

We need to find the thrust produced by the gas.

We know that force is equal to the rate of change of momentum. So,

$F=\dfrac{p}{t}$

Also, p = mv

$F=\dfrac{mv}{t}$

So,

$F=1.5\times 10^3\times 4\times 10^3\\\\F=6\times 10^6\ N$

So, the thrust is $6\times 10^6\ N$

A 600kg car is moving at 5 m/s to the right and elastically collided with a stationary 900 kg car. What is the velocity of the 9

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

$\mathrm{v}_{2} \text { velocity after the collision is } 3.3 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$

Explanation:

It says “Momentum before the collision is equal to momentum after the collision.” Elastic Collision formula is applied to calculate the mass or velocity of the elastic bodies.

$m_{1} v_{1}=m_{2} v_{2}$
