Answer:
- Direct current is a current in which electrons flow in one direction only
- Alternating current is a current in which the direction of the electron flow reverses periodically - so, half a cycle forward, half a cycle backward
There are several advantages of using alternating currents for the transmission of electricity across a country, over large distances. The main advantages are:
- The voltage of alternating currents can be easily increased/decreased by using transformers. For instance, a transformer is used at the beginning of the transmission line to increase the voltage (electricity is transmitted at high voltage in order to reduce dissipated power), and then another transformer is used before the electricity enters the houses, in order to decrease the voltage. Transformers only work with alternating currents.
- It is easy to interrupt the flow of an alternating current, because its value naturally becomes zero every half a cycle, so this is useful in case the current must be interrupted.
Answer:
The answer is 'more' as more mass can exert more pressure
F should be 10. If The Whole top is 50cm, then we should subtract 10n and 30n which gives us 10.
Or it could be 15 if both top and bottom are 25. 10+15= 25.
<span>The question says: complete the sentence: The distance between stars is typically measured in.... The answer is 'light years" - the distance that light travels in a year. That's because it's a very big unit and if we were using smaller units, we would be using huge numbers that would be hard to read and would take up a lot of space.</span>
Answer:
F = 147,78*10⁻⁹ [N]
Explanation:
By symmetry the Fy components of the forces acting on charge in point x = 0,7 m canceled each other, and the total force will be twice Fx ( Fx is x axis component of one of the forces .
The angle β ( angle between the line running through one of the charges in y axis and the charge in x axis) is
tan β = 0,5/0,7
tan β = 0,7142 then β = arctan 0,7142 ⇒ β = 35 ⁰
cos β = 0,81
d = √ (0,5)² + (0,7)² d1stance between charges
d = √0,25 + 0,49
d = √0,74 m
d = 0,86 m
Now Foce between two charges is:
F = K* q₁*q₂/ d² (1)
Where K = 9*10⁹ N*m²/C²
q₁ = 2,5* 10⁻⁹C
q₂ = 3,0*10⁻⁹C
d² = 0,74 m²
Plugging these values in (1)
F = 9*10⁹* 2,5* 10⁻⁹*3,0*10⁻⁹ / 0,74 [N*m²/C²]*C*C/m²
F = 91,21 * 10⁻⁹ [N]
And Fx = F*cos β
Fx = 91,21 * 10⁻⁹ *0,81
Fx =73,89*10⁻⁹ [N]
Then total force acting on charge located at x = 0,7 m is:
F = 2* Fx
F = 2*73,89*10⁻⁹ [N]
F = 147,78*10⁻⁹ [N]
