Answer:

A. A resistor alters current and a switch turns current on and off

Explanation:

Resistor is the passive component that reduces the flow of current. Switch is the electrical device that turns on or off the current by closing and opening the electrical circuit.

Thus option A. A resistor alters current and a switch turns current on and off  is correct.

Sort these statements about machines based on whether they are correct or incorrect.
insens350 [35]

as well.

1. Correct

Explanation

An inclined plane is a flat  surface which lie at an angle, Its one end is higher than the other this inclined plane is used as an aid for raising or lowering a load. Staircase also work in similar manner

2. Correct

Explanation

yes all simple machine have a fulcrum

3. Incorrect

Explanation

when we swim that time our arms and legs 'push' the water due to which water displaced in backward direction so her we applied a positive work on the water. According to Newton's Third Law,same magnitude of work is done by water in opposite direction to push us back on our arms and legs. therefore water also does positive work on us.

4. incorrect

Explanation

The force exerted by a machine on an object is input force

5.  Incorrect

Explanation

when the input force is greater than the output force that time machine have mechanical advantage of less than 1.

a coil of 40 henry inductance is connected in series with aresistance of 8ohm and the combination is joined to the terminals of
Andreyy89

Answer: 5 seconds

Explanation:

Given the following :

Inductance (L) = 40 henry

Resistance = 8 ohms

The circuit given above is a Resistor - Inductor (RL) circuit network. The time constant of an RL circuit is the ratio of the circuit Inductance (L) and Resistance (R). Time constant is measured in seconds.

THAT IS;

Time constant = L / R

THEREFORE ;

Time constant = 40 / 8

Time constant = 5 seconds

A parallel plate capacitor is charged up by a battery. The battery is then disconnected, but the charge remains on the plates. T
larisa [96]

Answer:

a. Decreases

b. Increases

c. Remains the same

d. Increases

Explanation:

a. Capacitance is given by c= Ak€/d

where A is conductivity plate with Area

K is a constant

€ is dielectric with permittivity.

d is the distance

b. Potential difference is given by

V = Ed, since, the electric field remains the

same, the potential diterence also increases with increase in distance.

Since the capacitance depends upon the distance, and all the other factors are kept constant, the capacitance decreases.

c. Electric field remains the same because charge on the

plate remains the same.

d. since electric field remains the same and capacitance decreases, the energy increases.

E= 1/2c * Q^2

an air craft is travelling due north with velocity of 100m/s astrong wind blow from the west with in velocity of 25m/s the reshs
OleMash [197]

Explanation:

The aircraft is traveling north at 100 m/s.

The wind blows from the west (towards the east) at 25 m/s.

The two vectors form a right triangle.  The magnitude of the resultant velocity can be found with Pythagorean theorem:

v² = vx² + vy²

v² = (25 m/s)² + (100 m/s)²

v = 103 m/s

The direction can be found with trigonometry:

θ = atan(vy / vx)

θ = atan(100 / 25)

θ = 76.0°

The resultant velocity is 103 m/s at 76.0° north of east.
