Answer:

Correct answer: Third statement P = 4900 W

Explanation:

Given:

m = 500 kg the mass of the elevator

h = 10 m reached height after t = 10 seconds

P = ? power of the motor

The formula for the calculating power of the motor is:

P = W / t

since work is a measure of change in this case of potential energy then it is:

W = ΔEp = Ep - 0 = Ep

In this case we must take g = 9.81 m/s²

Ep = m g h = 500 · 9.81 · 10 = 49,050 W ≈ 49,000 W

Ep ≈ 49,000 W

P = Ep / t = 49,000 / 10 = 4,900 W

P =4,900 W

A strong lightning bolt transfers an electric charge of about 31 C to Earth (or vice versa). How many electrons are transferred?

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

$m=5.78\times 10^{-3}\ g$

$n_e=1.935\times 10^{20}$ is the no. of electrons

Explanation:

Given:

quantity of charge transferred, $Q=31\ C$

No. of electrons in the given amount of charge:

As we have charge on one electron $1.602\times 10^{-19}\ C$

so,

$n_e=\frac{Q}{e}$

$n_e=\frac{31}{1.602\times 10^{-19}}$

$n_e=1.935\times 10^{20}$ is the no. of electrons

Now if each water molecules donates one electron:

Then we require $n=1.935\times 10^{20}$ molecules.

Now the no. of moles in this many molecules:

$n_m=\frac{n}{N_A}$

where

$N_A=6.022\times 10^{23}$ Avogadro No.

$n_m=\frac{1.935\times 10^{20}}{6.022\times 10^{23}}$

$n_m=3.213\times 10^{-4}\ moles$

We have molecular mass of water as M=18 g/mol.

So, the mass of water in the obtained moles:

$n_m=\frac{m}{M}$

where:

m = mass in gram

$3.213\times 10^{-4}=\frac{m}{18}$

$m=5.78\times 10^{-3}\ g$

How does an electroscope detect negative static electricity

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

An electroscope that might have a static charge is tested on a metal surface. From there, the charges move to the metal and straight to the foil leaves. If they repel, or move away from each other, that means they have identical charges. This applies for both positive and negative static electricity.

If you chip your tooth enamel, it may grow back. True False

Yuri [45]

Answer:

When a patient has a chipped tooth, it means that a small portion of their tooth is no longer there. Chipped teeth are one of the more common types of dental problems that general dentists deal with. However, chipped teeth do not grow back on any portion of a tooth and instead need to be repaired by a general dentist.
