Electronic flash unit cameras contain a capacitor for storing the energy used to produce the flash. In one such unit the flash l

asts for 1/675 s with an average light power output of 2.7❝105 W. (a) If the conversion of electrical energy to light is 95% efficient (the rest of the energy goes to thermal energy) how much energy must be stored in the capacitor for one flash? (b) The capacitor has a potential difference between its plates of 125V when the stored energy equals the value calculated in part (a). What is the capacitance?

Answer:

(A) 421 J energy stored in the capacitor for one flash.

(B) The value of capacitance is 0.0537 F

Explanation:

Given :

(A)

Time t = \frac{1}{675}

Average power P = 2.7 \times 10^{5} W

From power equation,

   P= \frac{E}{t}

So energy in one light is given by,

   E = Pt

  E = 2.7 \times 10^{5} \times \frac{1}{675}  = 400 J

Since efficiency is 95 % so we can write, energy stored in one flash,

E_{tot} = \frac{400}{0.95} = 421 J

(B)

From the formula of energy stored in capacitor,

 E = \frac{1}{2}C V^{2}

Where E = E_{tot} and V = 125 V

 C = \frac{2E}{V^{2} }

 C = \frac{2 \times 421}{15625}

 C = 0.0537 F

Sliva [168]

The event in the life of a star that begins its expansion into a giant is its core that was hot enough for fusion reaction.

<h3>What is fusion reaction?</h3>

Nuclear fusion is a type of reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei are fuse to form one or more different atomic nuclei with the release or the absorption of energy.

So we can conclude that the event in the life of a star that begins its expansion into a giant is its core that was hot enough for fusion reaction.

How could rescue workers use squeezing or compressing to get energy to their flashlights during rescue missions?
Neko [114]

Answer:

Explanation:

During rescue missions, different types of energy can be devices for flashlight, this could be human powered energy such as squeezing or compressing. In flashlight electrical energy is converted to light and thermal energy.

A squeezing or compressing to get energy for flashlight can be regarded as "DYNAMO PROCESS" it involves spinning of "fly wheels" into the flashlight through consistent squeezing ,which is connected to a dynamo(Dynamo supply electrical current). Hence the needed light is seen on the bulb of the flashlight.

what is the transfer of heat energy by direct contact. A . convection b. radiation c. thermal or heat and d. conduction ​
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

d. conduction ​

Explanation:

Conduction involves the transfer of electric charge or thermal energy due to the movement of particles. When the conduction relates to electric charge, it is known as electrical conduction while when it relates to thermal energy, it is known as heat conduction.

In the process of heat conduction, thermal energy is usually transferred from fast moving particles to slow moving particles during the collision of these particles. Also, thermal energy is typically transferred between objects that has different degrees of temperature and materials (particles) that are directly in contact with each other but differ in their ability to accept or give up electrons.

Any material or object that allow the conduction (transfer) of electric charge or thermal energy is generally referred to as a conductor. Conductors include metal, steel, aluminum, copper, frying pan, pot, spoon etc.

In conclusion, conduction typically involves the transfer of heat energy by direct contact between two or more conductors such as a pot and electric cooker.

When landing from a jump, a basketball player of mass 82 kg has a velocity of 1.2 m/s right before they hit the ground. The play
saw5 [17]

Answer:

2361.6N

Explanation:

Mass of player = 82kg

Velocity = 1.2m/s

Kinetic energy of player:

= 1/2mv²

= 1/2*82*1.2²

= 41x1.44

= 59.04J

Final kinetic energy = 0

Change in kinetic energy

|∆k| = |0-59.04|

= 59.04

Workdone by the feet = fd

d = 0.025

Fd = 59.04

F = 59.04/0.025

= 2361.6N

This is his average force.
