Answer:Technician A

Explanation:

Technician A statement is correct as

The battery is required to start the vehicle which, in effect, rotates the alternator at sufficient speed to keep the battery charged. This means if the battery is low it is not possible to start the vehicle and thus we are unable to test the alternator.

That is the battery is pre-requisite to test the alternator. So the battery must be at least a 75 % charge to test the alternator.

It's the natural tendency of things to keep going unless there's something trying to stop them.

It's usually called "inertia".

Don't get the idea from all of this that things stop unless there's something to keep them going. The truth is exactly the opposite: Things keep going unless there's something to make them stop.

3) The work done is D. zero

4) The kinetic energy is B. 180 J

5) The potential energy is A. 120 J

6) The work done depends on B. position

7) The example of non-renewable energy is C. coal

8) The power expended is $3\cdot 10^4 W$

9) The efficiency is A. 100%

10) The velocity ratio is 5

Explanation:

3)

The work done by a force acting an object is given by:

$W=Fd cos \theta$

where :

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement

When the force is applied perpendicular to the direction of motion,

$\theta=90^{\circ}$

Therefore, the work done is:

$W=Fd(cos 90^{\circ})=0$

4)

The kinetic energy of a body is given by

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the body

v is its speed

For the girl in this problem, we have

m = 40 kg

v = 3 m/s

Therefore her kinetic energy is

$K=\frac{1}{2}(40)(3)^2=180 J$

5)

The potential energy of an object is given by

$PE=mgh$

where

m is the mass

$g=10 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

h is the heigth of the object relative to the ground

For the ball in this problem,

m = 0.4 kg

h = 30 m

So, the potential energy is

$PE=(0.4)(10)(30)=120 J$

6)

A conservative field is a field for which the work done by the field on an object does not depend on the path taken, but only on the initial and final position of the object.

Gravitational and electric fields are examples of conservative fields. In fact:

When an object is pulled down by gravity (free fall), the work done by the gravitational field only depends on the change in height $\Delta h$ between the two points, not on the path taken during the fall
When an electric charge is pushed by the electric field, the work done by the field depends only on the initial and final position of the charge in the field

For any conservative field, it is possible to define a "potential" function, which represents the energy per unit mass/charge, and depends only on the position of the object.

Non-renewable energy sources are sources of energy whose rate of consumption is faster than the rate at which they are re-created. Examples of non-renewable sources are coal, oil, natural gas. These energy sources are consumed at a fast rate, while they take million of years to regenerate, so at the current rate they will eventually run out.
Renewable energy sources are sources of energy that replenish at faster rate than the rate at which it is consumed. Examples of renewable sources are solar energy, wind, hydroelectric power.

Therefore, the example of non-renewable energy in this case is

C. Coal

For an object pushed by a force F and moving at a constant velocity v, the power expended is given by

$P=Fv$

where F is the force and v is the velocity.

for the rocket in this problem, we have:

F = 10 N is the force propelling the rocket

v = 3000 m/s is its velocity

Substituting into the equation, we find the power expended:

$P=(10)(3000)=30,000 W = 3\cdot 10^4 W$

9.

The efficiency of a machine is given by

$\eta = \frac{W_{out}}{W_{in}}$

where

$W_{in}$ is the energy in input to the machine

$W_{out}$ is the useful work in output from the machine

For a real machine, the useful work in output is always lower than the energy input, because part of the energy is "wasted" and converted into thermal energy due to the presence of internal frictions. However, for an ideal machine, all the input energy is converted into useful work, so

$W_{out}=W_{in}$

And therefore the efficiency is

$\eta=1$

which means 100%.

10.

The velocity ratio of a block and tackle system is the ratio between the distance moved by the effort and the distance moved by the load.

$VR=\frac{d_{eff}}{d_{load}}$

In a block and tackle system, the velocity ratio is also equal to the number of pulleys in the system.

For the system in the problem, there are 5 pulleys: therefore, this means that when the effort moves 5 metres, the load moves 1 metres, therefore the velocity ratio is

$VR=\frac{5}{1}=5$

1) A negatively charged ion is chloride

2) Moving from left to right, valence electrons increase by one.

3) The period number gives information about how many energy levels it has

4) Fluorine has a charge of 1–

5) Potassium and iodine form an ionic bond

The periodic table is an arrangement of elements into groups and periods based on their periodic properties.

In the periodic table, elements are arranged in groups and periods. There are 18 groups and 8 periods.

Chlorine is in group 17, there have seven outermost electrons hence the chlorine atom needs only one more electron in order to attain a stable octet. This is done by accepting one electron to form the negatively charged chloride ion.

As we move from one period to another, one extra electron is added to the outermost shell of elements. Hence, the valence electrons increases by one.

The period to which an element belongs shows you the number of shells or energy levels in the atom of that element.

Fluorine is in group 17. One electron is needed to achieve a stable octet. When an atom accepts one electron, its charge is 1–.

Bonding based on ionic charges occurs between metals and nonmetals. Potassium is a metal of group 1 and iodine is a non metal of group 17 hence they can bond together based on their ionic charges.

Two equal forces are applied to a door. The first force is applied at the midpoint of the door, the second force is applied at t

Orlov [11]

Answer:

D) the second at the doorknob

Explanation:

The torque exerted by a force is given by:

$\tau = Fdsin \theta$

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the distance between the point of application of the force and the centre of rotation

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and d

In this problem, we have:

- Two forces of equal magnitude F

- Both forces are perpendicular to the door, so $\theta=90^{\circ}, sin \theta=1$

- The first force is exerted at the midpoint of the door, while the 2nd force is applied at the doorknob. This means that d is the larger for the 2nd force

--> therefore, the 2nd force exerts a greater torque
