How does the brightness of a bulb tell you about the energy of electrons passing through it?

Physics
1 answer:
Mashcka [7]3 years ago
8 0

The brightness of the bulb doesn't tell you anything about the energy of the
electrons passing through it.

It tells you how much total energy is <em><u>lost</u></em> by the <em><u>total flow</u></em> of electrons through
the bulb.  You can't tell what part of that is due to a large or small number of
electrons, or what part of it is due to each electron losing a large or small amount
of energy on the way through.

A girl weighing 600 N steps on a bathroom scale that contains a stiff spring. In equilibrium, the spring is compressed 1.0 cm un
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

The spring constant is 60,000 N

The total work done on it during the compression is 3 J

Explanation:

Given;

weight of the girl, W = 600 N

compression of the spring, x = 1 cm = 0.01 m

To determine the spring constant, we apply hook's law;

F = kx

where;

F is applied force or weight on the spring

k is the spring constant

x is the compression of the spring

k = F / x

k = 600 / 0.01

k = 60,000 N

The total work done on the spring = elastic potential energy of the spring, U;

U = ¹/₂kx²

U = ¹/₂(60000)(0.01)²

U = 3 J

Thus, the total work done on it during the compression is 3 J

The question is in the picture. :)
NISA [10]
Player A needs the least amount of energy. The ball is light weight and she is closest to the goal so the momentum need to kick the ball will be the least and the distance is has to travel is the shortest. But player C needs the most amount of energy. The ball is heavy so it will take the most momentum to move the ball and over such a long distance. Hope this help idrk.

The emf induced in a coil that is rotating in a magnetic field will be at a maximum at which moment?
adelina 88 [10]
TLDR: It will reach a maximum when the angle between the area vector and the magnetic field vector are perpendicular to one another.

This is an example that requires you to investigate the properties that occur in electric generators; for example, hydroelectric dams produce electricity by forcing a coil to rotate in the presence of a magnetic field, generating a current.

To solve this, we need to understand the principles of electromotive forces and Lenz’ Law; changing the magnetic field conditions around anything with this potential causes an induced current in the wire that resists this change. This principle is known as Lenz’ Law, and can be described using equations that are specific to certain situations. For this, we need the two that are useful here:

e = -N•dI/dt; dI = ABcos(theta)

where “e” describes the electromotive force, “N” describes the number of loops in the coil, “dI” describes the change in magnetic flux, “dt” describes the change in time, “A” describes the area vector of the coil (this points perpendicular to the loops, intersecting it in open space), “B” describes the magnetic field vector, and theta describes the angle between the area and mag vectors.

Because the number of loops remains constant and the speed of the coils rotation isn’t up for us to decide, the only thing that can increase or decrease the emf is the change in magnetic flux, represented by ABcos(theta). The magnetic field and the size of the loop are also constant, so all we can control is the angle between the two. To generate the largest emf, we need cos(theta) to be as large as possible. To do this, we can search a graph of cos(theta) for the highest point. This occurs when theta equals 90 degrees, or a right angle. Therefore, the electromotive potential will reach a maximum when the angle between the area vector and the magnetic field vector are perpendicular to one another.

Hope this helps!

When the Glen Canyon hydroelectric power plant in Arizona is running at capacity, 690 m3 of water flows through the dam each sec
bixtya [17]

Answer:

1340.2MW

Explanation:

Hi!

To solve this problem follow the steps below!

1 finds the maximum maximum power, using the hydraulic power equation which is the product of the flow rate by height by the specific weight of fluid

W=αhQ

α=specific weight for water =9.81KN/m^3

h=height=220m

Q=flow=690m^3/s

W=(690)(220)(9.81)=1489158Kw=1489.16MW

2. Taking into account that the generator has a 90% efficiency, Find the real power by multiplying the ideal power by the efficiency of the electric generator

Wr=(0.9)(1489.16MW)=1340.2MW

the maximum possible electric power output is 1340.2MW
