Answer:

A) because it is produced by a generator that changes current direction as it spins

Explanation:

Alternating current has a frequency of around 60 Hz because it is produced by a generator that changes direction as it spins. Every time the arm passes through the magnetic field in the generator, the current changes direction.

Suppose a 4,000-kg elephant is hoisted 20 m above Earth’s surface. Use a calculator and follow the steps below to find the eleph
stiv31 [10]
GPE = 78,380 J
w = 39,240 N

First list what you know. You know the elephants mass and it’s height. You also know gravity on Earth. I will use g = 9.81.
m = 4,000 kg
h = 20 m
g = 9.81 m/s^2

You need to find the elephants weight. Weight = mass x gravity
w = mg
w = (4000 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)
w = 39,240 N (N = newtons)

Now, knowing the elephants weight, you can calculate its GPE.
Gravitational Potential Energy = weight x height

GPE = wh
GPE = (39,240N)(20m)
GPE = 78,380 J (J = joules)
