Physics
2 answers:
sweet [91]3 years ago
6 0

Answer

Correct option is B that is Desktop computer

Explanation

Option A

This option is not correct because in a Locomotive train steam, diesel or batteries are used.

Option B

It is Correct option because in desktop a transformer is there which uses AC current. Most of us have desktop and we used AC current to operate it we don't have any other option to operate a desktop except AC current

Option C

This is not correct option because in  a car we used petrol, deisel, gas or  DC batteries.

Option D

Option D is not correct option because to operate portable media player we can use both  alternating current or batteries

Option

This is not correct option because in  flashlight we uses DC batteries

Hope this answer will help you

B. Desktop computer

A Locomotive train runs on steam, diesel, or batteries

a car either gas or electric uses DC batteries

portable media player can use AC or batteries

A flashlight uses DC batteries

The computer actually has a transformer built into it which uses AC current

An insulated rigid tank contains 3 kg of H2O in the form of a saturated mixture of liquid and vapor at a pressure of 150 kPa and
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

change in entropy is 1.44 kJ/ K

Explanation:

from steam tables

At 150 kPa

specific volume

Vf = 0.001053 m^3/kg

vg = 1.1594 m^3/kg

specific entropy values are

Sf = 1.4337 kJ/kg K

Sfg = 5.789 kJ/kg

initial specific volume is calculated as

v_1 = vf + x(vg - vf)

      = 0.001053 + 0.25(1.1594 - 0.001053)

v_1 = 0.20964  m^3/kg

s_1 = Sf + x(Sfg)

     = 1.4337 + 0.25 \times 5.7894 = 2.88 kJ/kg K

FROM STEAM Table

at 200 kPa

specific volume

Vf = 0.001061 m^3/kg

vg = 0.88578 m^3/kg

specific entropy values are

Sf = 1.5302 kJ/kg K

Sfg = 5.5698 kJ/kg

constant volume  sov_1 -  v_2  = 0.29064 m^3/kg

v_2 = v_1 = vf + x(vg - vf)

       =0.29064 = x_2(0.88578 - 0.001061)

x_2 = 0.327

s_2 = 1.5302 + 0.32 \times 5.5968 = 3.36035 kJ/kg K

Change in entropy \Delta s = m(s_2 - s_1)

              =3( 3.36035 - 2.88) =  1.44 kJ/kg

In a pig caller can produce a sound intensity level of 107 dB. How many pig callers would be needed to generate an intensity lev
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

20 pig callers

Explanation:

Given that:

A pig caller produced intensity level of  a sound = 107 dB

To find how many pig callers required to generate an intensity level of 120 dB;

we have:

120 dB - 107 dB = 13 dB

Taking the logarithm function;

10 \ log \bigg(\dfrac{I}{I_o} \bigg) = 13 \ dB

where;

I_o = initial intensity

log \bigg(\dfrac{I}{I_o} \bigg) = 1.3

\dfrac{I}{I_o}=  10^{1.3 }

I = 19.95I_o

I ≅ 20 pig callers

Help please:Calculate the mechanical energy of a bird flying at a speed of 10 m / s at an altitude of 15 m. If its mass is 150 g
Sonja [21]

Mass of the bird(m) = 150 g = 0.15 kg

Speed (v) = 10 m/s

Kinetic Energy = \frac{1}{2}m v^{2} = \frac{1}{2} 0.15 (10)^{2} = 7.5 J

Altitude (h) = 15 m

Gravitational Potential Energy = (0.15)(9.81)(15) = 22.0725 J

Mechanical Energy = Kinetic Energy + Potential Energy = 7.5 + 22.0725

= 29.5725 J

What is meant by a colored shadow? If "shadow" means
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Explanation:

Red, green, and blue are therefore called additive primaries of light. ... When you block two lights, you see a shadow of the third color—for example, block the red and green lights and you get a blue shadow. If you block only one of the lights, you get a shadow whose color is a mixture of the other two.

First, your definition of a shadow is incorrect. A shadow is an area that receives less light than its surroundings because a specific source of light is blocked by whatever is "casting" the shadow. Your example of being outside reveals this. The sky and everything around you in the environment (unless you are surrounded by pitch black buildings) is sending more than enough light into your shadow, to reveal the pen to your eyes. The sky itself diffuses the sunlight everywhere, and the clouds reflect plenty of light when they are not directly in front of the Sun.

If you are indoors and have two light bulbs, you can throw two shadows at the same time, possibly of different darknesses, depending on the brightness of the light bulbs.

It can take a lot of work to get a room pitch black. One little hole or crack in some heavy window curtains can be enough to illuminate the room. There are very few perfectly dark shadows.
