Answer:

The given symbol is of DC power source

Option A is incorrect because in ammeter a letter A is written inside a circle.

Similarly, Option B is incorrect because in voltmeter V is written inside a circle

Option C and D are incorrect

Option E is correct it is a DC power source.

It is a Dc power source the left hand side is positive side and the right line is the negative side.

Option (e) is correct. The symbol shown in the figure represents a DC power source of an electrical circuit.

Explanation:

An electrical circuit is a proper arrangement of the different electrical components that drive power or energy from the voltage or a current source and operate according to its nature.

The different components used in a circuit are categorized into two broad categories. Active components and the passive components. The components that provide energy to the circuit are called as the active components and the component that derive energy from the active components are termed as the passive components.

The ammeter, voltmeter etc. are the devices that are used to measure the current and the voltage supplied to the circuit. An AC or DC power source supply the power to the circuit.

The component shown in the diagram represents a DC power source. The AC power source is represented by a zigzag line in a circle whereas the ammeter and voltmeter are represented by their letter A or V in a circle.

Thus, option (e) is correct. The symbol shown in the figure represents a DC power source of an electrical circuit.

To what potential should you charge a 3.0 μf capacitor to store 1.0 j of energy?

Nimfa-mama [501]

The energy stored in a capacitor is given by:
$U= \frac{1}{2}CV^2$
where
U is the energy
C is the capacitance
V is the potential difference

The capacitor in this problem has capacitance
$C=3.0 \mu F = 3.0 \cdot 10^{-6} F$
So if we re-arrange the previous equation, we can calculate the potential V that should be applied to the capacitor to store U=1.0 J of energy on it:
$V= \sqrt{ \frac{2U}{C} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 1.0 J}{3.0 \cdot 10^{-6}F} }=816 V$

A secret agent is locked in a room. He pushes against the door but cannot open it. Finally, he falls to the floor exhausted. Has

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: There is not work done at the door because the door did not move.

Explanation: Work is defined as the movement done by a force.

So if you move to apply a force F in an object and you move it a distance D, the work applied on the object is

W = F*D

In this case, the secret agent pushes against the door, so there is a force, but the agent does not move the door, so D = 0, so there is no motion of the door, which implies that there is no work done at the door.

How can you use tweezers to separate a mixture

drek231 [11]

Hi, this sounds like a chemistry question:
If you wanted to separate sand from iron fillings for example, using tweezers would be a great tool to do this, depending on the size of the iron fillings.
