Answer:

Commutator is a ring which reverse the direction of current in AC circuit so that the coil connected to it will continuous to move in the same direction.

Explanation:

In motors there exist a coil which is rotated due to torque of magnetic field when current flow through it. Since AC current is used to run the motor so we know that AC current changes its direction after half cycle.

So here commutator plays an important role to reverse the direction of current after every half cycle so that the current goes in same direction always into the coil.

This will produce a constant direction torque on the coil so that it will rotate in same sense always.

So commutator role is to provide same direction current to the coil by reversing its direction after every half cycle

A closed box with square base is to be built to house an ant colony. the bottom of the box and all four sides are to be made of
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Box has all sides same leinght(a). Area of that box is 6*a^2.
Cost of material for bottom and 4 sides is 2$/ft^2. Area of bottom and sides is A=5*a^2
Cost of material for top is 4$/ft^2. Area of top of the box is T=a^2

A*2+T*4=72
5*a^2*2+a^2*4=72
a^2*(10+4)=72
a^2*14=72, a^2=72/14, a=root(72/14), a=2.267ft
Dimensions of the box: leinght of sides 2.2ft. Area of hole box 30.835ft^2
Area of the bottom and sides: A=5*a^2=25.696ft^2
Area of the top : T=a^2=5.139ft^2
Check: A*2$+T*4$=71.95$

A car traveling west in a straight line on a highway decreases its speed from 30.0 meters per second to 23.0 meters per second i
pychu [463]
Acceleration, a =  (v - u) / t

Initial Velocity, u = 30 m/s
Final Velocity, v  =  23 m/s
time                 t  =  2.00 seconds

a = (23 - 30) / 2
a = -7 / 2 = -3.5 m/s2

So the acceleration  is negative, which means it is a deceleration of 3.5 m/s2.

A 22.0 nF capacitor is connected across an AC generator that produces a peak voltage of 5.80 V. part a
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Explanation:

Impedence of the circuit = peak voltage / peak current

= 5.8 / 51 x 10⁻³

= 113.725 ohm.

1 / wC =113.725

w = 1 / (113.725 x 22 x 10⁻⁹ )

= 10⁹ / 2.5 x 10³

=10⁶ / 2.5

40 x 10⁴

frequency n = 40 x 10⁴ / 2 x 3.14

6.37 x 10⁴ Hz.

b ) charge on the capacitor = 1 C

V = Q / C

= Charge / capacitor

= 1 / 22 x 10⁻⁹

4.54 x 10⁷ V.
