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

1 answer:

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 lost by the total flow 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.

An energy storage system based on a flywheel (a rotating disk) can store a maximum of 3.7 MJ when the flywheel is rotating at 16

Likurg_2 [28]

The moment of inertia of the flywheel is 2.63 kg- $m^{2}$

It is given that,

The maximum energy stored on the flywheel is given as

E=3.7MJ= 3.7× $10^{6}$ J

Angular velocity of the flywheel is 16000 $\frac{rev}{min}$ = 1675.51 $\frac{rad}{sec}$

So to find the moment of inertia of the flywheel. The energy of a flywheel in rotational kinematics is given by :

E = $\frac{1}{2}$ $Iw^{2}$

By rearranging the equation:

I = $\frac{2E}{w_{2} }$

I = 2.63 kg- $m^{2}$

Thus the moment of inertia of the flywheel is 2.63 kg- $m^{2}$ .

Which statement is true about metals?

CaHeK987 [17]

B. Metals are usually defined to be from group 1 to group 13 in the periodic table which has 1-3 electrons in the outermost shell. They easily give them up which explains their conductivity.

Why are red stars cooler than blue stars?

asambeis [7]

OK both stars are burning and as they burn they emit electromagnetic radiation (light) and as we move in the light spectrum red comes before blue, so the star that looks red is cooler because as the temperature decreases the colour decreases
