Answer:

A _commutator_ is used in a motor to switch the direction of the magnetic field created by the current.

The rotating part of a motor that holds the electromagnets is called the __armature___.

Electric current passes through the _brushes_ and into the electromagnets in an electric motor.

A motor turns _electrical_ energy into _mechanical_ energy.

Explanation:

A commutator, which is a split ring rotary switching device, reverses the direction of the current between the external circuit and the rotor. Reversing the current reverses the magnetic field.

The armature comprises the rotating part of the motor and the electromagnets

A brush is the electrical contact for conducting current through the moving and stationary parts of an electric motor

An electric motor turns electrical energy into mechanical energy.

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

a) $\Delta U_{g} = 12.945\,J$ , b) $\Delta U_{k} = 12.945\,J$ , c) $k = 2930.059\,\frac{N}{m}$

Explanation:

a) The change in the gravitational potential energy of the marble-Earth system is:

$\Delta U_{g} = (0.06\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}\right)\cdot (22\,m)$

$\Delta U_{g} = 12.945\,J$

b) The change in the elastic potential energy of the spring is equal to the change in the gravitational potential energy, then:

$\Delta U_{k} = 12.945\,J$

c) The spring constant of the gun is:

$\Delta U_{k} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot k \cdot x^{2}$

$k = \frac{2\cdot \Delta U_{k}}{x^{2}}$

$k = \frac{2\cdot (12.945\,J)}{(0.094\,m)^{2}}$

$k = 2930.059\,\frac{N}{m}$

An automobile accelerates 1.77 m/s2 over 6.00 s to reach freeway speed at the end of an

GaryK [48]

Answer:

Startinfg speed is 13.82 m/s

Explanation:

Use equation for realtion between start and final speed :

Vf=Vs+a*t

Vf-final speed

Vs-start speed

Vf=24.44m/s

a=1.77m/s²(acceleration)

t=6.00s(Time)

Vf=Vs+a*t

Vs=a*t-Vf

Vs=1.77m/s²*6s-24.44m/s

Vs=-13.82m/s

Say I have a series circuit with 20v and four 65 ohm resistors, what is the current in each resistor?

Komok [63]

Data:

$E = 20 V$
$R_{1} = 65\Omega$
$R_{2} = 65\Omega$
$R_{3} = 65\Omega$
$R_{4} = 65\Omega$

Now that we have all the values we need properly identified, simply calculate the equivalent total resistance of the circuit and the intensity of the total electric current using the Ohm's Law:

 $R_{T} = R_{1} + R_{2} + R_{3} + R_{4}$
$R_{T} = 65 + 65 + 65+ 65$
$R_{T} = 260\Omega$

Like this:

$I_{T} = \frac{E}{ R_{T} }$

$I_{T} = \frac{20}{ 260 }$
$I_{T} = 0,076923076...$

$\boxed{\boxed{I_{T} \approx 0,07A}}$
Answer:
The intensity of the total electric current
 $\boxed{\boxed{I_{T} \approx 0,07A}}$

P.S:. Since the association is in series, the current of 0.07A is the same for all resistors.
