The answer is b. False because radiation transfers energy by the propagation of waves within the electromagnetic spectrum and the travel of photons. Therefore, no matter is moved within this process.

Which is the electric potential energy of a charged particle divided by its charge?Electric fieldelectric field lineelectric pot

Dahasolnce [82]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

electric potential

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Electric potential is the electric potential energy per unit charge.

Mathematically; V =PE/q

Where; PE is the electric potential energy, V is the electric potential and q is the charge.

Electric potential is more commonly known as voltage. If you know the potential at a point, and you then place a charge at that point, the potential energy associated with that charge in that potential is simply the charge multiplied by the potential.

As a capacitor is being charged in an RC circuit. the current flowing through a resistor isa) increasingb) decreasingc) constant

Montano1993 [528]

<h2>Answer: decreasing</h2>

An RC circuit is an electrical circuit composed of resistors and capacitors, where the charging time $T$ of the circuit is proportional to the magnitude of the electrical resistance $R$ and the capacity $C$ of the capacitor.

As shown below:

$T=R.C$

In this context, the electrical resistance is the opposition to the flow of electrons when moving through a conductor.

Therefore:

<h2>When a capacitor is being charged in an RC circuit, the current flowing through a resistor <u>decreases</u>.</h2>

And the correct option is b.

A charge of 1.5 µC is placed on the plates of a parallel plate capacitor. The change in voltage across the plates is 36 V. How m

belka [17]

Answer:

Energy stored in the capacitor is $U=2.7\times 10^{-5}\ J$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge, $q=1.5\ \mu C=1.5\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Potential difference, V = 36 V

We need to find the potential energy is stored in the capacitor. The stored potential energy is given by :

$U=\dfrac{1}{2}q\times V$

$U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.5\times 10^{-6}\times 36$

U = 0.000027 J

$U=2.7\times 10^{-5}\ J$

So, the potential energy is stored in the capacitor is $U=2.7\times 10^{-5}\ J$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

In which mechanical test is a specimen deformed with a gradually increasing load that is applied uniaxially along the long axis

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Compression Test

Explanation:

The Specimen is undergoing a compression test. It is similar to tensile test with the difference that the force is compressive and applied along the direction of stress. Both Tensile and compression tests are performed on Universal Testing machine. Compression test is done to determine the product's reaction when it is compressed, squashed and crushed.

Tamsen is interested in history, and read that because of its regular period, the pendulum constituted the basis of the most acc

geniusboy [140]

We will apply the concept of period in a pendulum, defined as the product between 2 $\pi$ by the square root of the length over gravity, this is mathematically

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

Here,

T = Period

L = Length

g = Acceleration due to gravity

For the period to be 1 second, then we must look for the necessary length for such a requirement so

$1 = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8}}$

$(\frac{1}{2\pi})^2 = \frac{L}{9.8}$

$L = 9.8(\frac{1}{2\pi})^2$

$L = 0.2482m$

The meter's length would be slight less than one-fourth of its current length. Also, the number of significant digits depends only on how precisely we know g, because the time has been defined to be exactly 1s.

Therefore the correct answer is C.
