Answer:

a, 1.775s

b, 17.04μC

c, 1.28s

Explanation:

Given

R = 1.25MΩ

C = 1.42µF

ε = 12.0 V

q = 8.78 µC

Time constant, τ = RC

τ = (1.25*10^6) * ( 1.42*10^-6)

τ = 1.775s

q• = εC

q• = 12 * 1.42*10^-6

q• = 17.04*10^-6C

q• = 17.04μC

Time t =

q = q• [1 - e^(t/τ)]

t = τIn[q•/(q•-q)]

t = 1.775In[17.04μC/(17.04μC-8.78μC)]

t = 1.775In(2.06)

t = 1.775*0.723

t = 1.28s

As keisha runs the generator, which best describes what should happen to the needle that measures electric current? it will move
SOVA2 [1]

The diagram shows a simple electric generator. The needle that measures electric current will move back and forth between a largely positive and a large negative value.

  • What is an electric generator?
  1. An electric generator is physically equivalent to an electric motor. but it converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.
  2. The electrical field generated is dependent on the inclination of the wire with respect to magnetic field lines, and this inclination changes over time,

because of that she will experience a varying electrical field, and thus a varying electric current will be zero.

The maximum positive value will occur when the wire is perpendicular to the magnetic field lines after one-fourth of rotation, and then zero.

Hence option C is correct.

The diagram shows a simple electric generator. The needle that measures electric current will move back and forth between a largely positive and a large negative value.

An ideal gas Carnot cycle with air in a piston cylinder has a high temperature of 1200 K and a heat rejection at 400 K. During t
lana [24]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity is q_{L}=126.12kJ/kg

The efficiency of the temperature is n_{TH}=0.67

Explanation:

The p-v diagram illustration is in the attachment

T_{H} means high temperature

T_{L} means low temperature

The energy equation :

q_{h} = R* T_{h} in(V_{2}/V_{1})

   =0.287 * 1200 ln(3)

   =0.287*1318.33

   =378.36kJ/kg

The specific heat capacity:

q_{L}=q_{h}*(T_{L}/T_{H})

q_{L}=378.36 * (400/1200)

q_{L}=378.36 * 0.333

q_{L}=126.12kJ/kg

The efficiency of the temperature will be:

n_{TH}=1 - (T_{L}/T_{H})

n_{TH}=1-(400/1200)

n_{TH}=1-0.333

n_{TH}=0.67

A balloon of mass M is floating motionless in the air. A person of mass less than M is on a rope ladder hanging from the balloon
Tasya [4]

Let the mass of the person be m. Total momentum is conserved (because the exterior forces on the system are balanced), especially the component in the vertical direction.

Given that,

Mass of gallon is M

Let man mass be m

Velocity of man is v

Let velocity if ballot be Vb

When the person begin to move we have

Conservation of momentum

mv + MVb=0

MVb=-mv

Vb= -(m/M) v

Given that the mass of man is less than mass of balloon. i.e. m<M

So, if m<M, then, m/M <1

Therefore, .

Vb= -(m/M) v

Vb< -v

This implies that the velocity of balloon is less than the velocity of man and if is also moving in opposite direction

So the man is moving upward, then the balloon is moving downward and it's velocity is less than the velocity of man,

The answer is C

Down with a speed less than v

The iron nail’s mass is 16 grams and its temperature drops 650 C when dropped into the water. How much heat energy did the iron
Mice21 [21]

The heat energy transferred by the iron nail is 4680 J

Explanation:

The thermal energy transferred by a substance to another substance is given by the equation

Q=mC\Delta T

where

m is the mass of the substance

C is its specific heat capacity

\Delta T is its change in temperature

For the iron nail in this problem, we have:

m = 16 g

C=0.450 J/g^{\circ}C

\Delta T = -650^{\circ}C

So, the amount of heat energy given off by the nail is

Q=(16)(0.450)(-650)=-4680 J

where the negative sign indicates that the heat is given off.
