Well, a device that is 100% efficient, would need to accomplish these things: first: it would need no energy to work second: it wouldn't produce any waste third: it would lose no energy while working fourth: it would work forever fifth: it wouldn't need another force (a human, by example) to operate it. according to this, the only thing i think can be called 100% efficient is a natural magnet. it doesn't consume energy (it even produces it) it doesn't produce any waste, and so on. there you go, i'd say a magnet is perfect to use!

Current is the movement of negative charges called protons.<br> A. True<br> B. False
Kruka [31]

Answer: Option B) False

Explanation:

Current is the movement of negative charges called electrons. Protons, neutrons and electrons are the three subatomic particles that make up particles of the conductors that transmit current, however electrons are negatively charged and their gain or loss determines movement of electric current.

Thus, the statement is false

A car of mass 998 kilograms moving in the positive y–axis at a speed of 20 meters/second collides on ice with another car of mas
goldfiish [28.3K]
    <span> Let’s determine the initial momentum of each car.
#1 = 998 * 20 = 19,960
#2 = 1200 * 17 = 20,400

This is this is total momentum in the x direction before the collision. B is the correct answer. Since momentum is conserved in both directions, this will be total momentum is the x direction after the collision. To prove that this is true, let’s determine the magnitude and direction of the total momentum after the collision.

Since the y axis and the x axis are perpendicular to each other, use the following equation to determine the magnitude of their final momentum.

Final = √(x^2 + y^2) = √(20,400^2 + 19,960^2) = √814,561,600

This is approximately 28,541. To determine the x component, we need to determine the angle of the final momentum. Use the following equation.

Tan θ = y/x = 19,960/20,400 = 499/510
θ = tan^-1 (499/510)

The angle is approximately 43.85˚ counter clockwise from the negative x axis. To determine the x component, multiply the final momentum by the cosine of the angle.

x = √814,561,600 * cos (tan^-1 (499/510) = 20,400</span>

A car battery with a 12 V emf and an internal resistance of 0.11 Ω is being charged with a current of 56 A. What are (a) the pot
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Part a)

V = 18.16 V

Part b)

P_r = 345 Watt

Part c)

P = 672 Watt

Part d)

V = 5.84 V

Part e)

P_r = 345 Watt

Explanation:

Part a)

When battery is in charging mode

then the potential difference at the terminal of the cell is more than its EMF and it is given as

\Delta V = E + i r

here we have

E = 12 V

i = 56 A

r = 0.11

now we have

\Delta V = 12 + (0.11)(56) = 18.16 V

Part b)

Rate of energy dissipation inside the battery is the energy across internal resistance

so it is given as

P_r = i^2 r

P_r = 56^2 (0.11)

P_r = 345 W

Part c)

Rate of energy conversion into EMF is given as

P_{emf} = i E

P_{emf} = (56)(12)

P_{emf} = 672 Watt

Now battery is giving current to other circuit so now it is discharging

now we have

Part d)

V = E - i r

V = 12 - (56)(0.11)

V = 12 - 6.16 = 5.84 V

Part e)

now the rate of energy dissipation is given as

P_r = i^2 r

P_r = 56^2 (0.11)

P_r = 345 W

Which is a correct statement of what occurs at a turbine during electricity production?
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The turbine is rotated and rotates the generator to produce electricity.

Explanation:

Within a turbine enters the superheated steam which is at high pressure and high temperature, this steam is previously formed in the boiler when the steam enters the turbine hits each one of the blades of the turbine making it rotate at a given speed, the turbine shaft is coupled to the shaft of an electric generator and thus generates electricity.

It is also important to say that when the steam comes out of the turbine comes out at low pressure, this way the internal operating process is carried out within the turbine.
