Physics
1 answer:
Margarita [4]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: its The ability to do work or cause change.  Energy of an object due to its motion.

Explanation:In physics, potential energy is the energy held by an object because of its position relative to other objects, stresses within itself, its electric charge, or other factors.

You have two identical pure silver ingots. You place one of them in a glass of water and observe it to sink to the bottom. You p
Elis [28]

Answer: a)

Explanation:

The buoyant force, as stated by Archimedes’ principle, is equal to the weight of the liquid that occupies the same volumen as the submerged object, as follows:

Fb = δ.V.g

If this force is larger than the weight of the object (that means that the fluid is denser than the solid), the object floats, which is the case for silver and mercury.

Instead, silver density is larger than water density, which explains why the pure silver ingot sinks.

Finally, as mercury is denser than water, we conclude that for a same object, the buoyant force in mercury is larger than in water (exactly 13.6 times greater).

When heat is converted into another form of energy, the total amount of energy is constant. Which law best illustrates this stat
Lorico [155]
The correct option is (A) <span>the first law of thermodynamics

Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics takes the idea of law of conservation of energy and modify it for thermodynamics systems. It is the total internal energy of the systems equals to the amount of heat added "to" the system and the workdone "by" the system given as:
</span>ΔU = Q - W
<span>Q = heat added TO the system
W = work BY the system
</span>ΔU = Total internal energy
<span>
But the total internal energy is CONSERVED; it means that energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only be transformed from one form to another. Hence the correct option is (A).</span>

There are devices to put in a light socket that control the current through a lightbulb, thereby increasing its lifetime. Which
Dmitrij [34]

Answer: B

Explanation:

Limiting the maximum current through the bulb. This will help in preserving or improving the bulb's lifetime and also this won't have an effect on the brightness of the bulb as brightness is affected by the average value. Although brightness is a factor of current, reducing the maximum current won't have any bearing on the average current the bulb is getting.

A solenoid with 35 turns per centimeter carries a current I. An electron moves within the solenoid in a circle that has a radius
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

The current of the solenoid is 0.0129 A.

Explanation:

The movement of the electron within the solenoid in a circle is produced by equaling the magnetic force and the centripetal force, as follows:

F_{B} = F_{c}

e*v \mu_{0}*n*I = \frac{m*v^{2}}{r}

I = \frac{m*v}{e* \mu_{0}*n*r}

Where:

I: is the current

m: is the electron's mass = 9.1x10⁺³¹ kg

v: is the electron's speed = 3.0x10⁵ m/s

μ₀: is the permeability magnetic = 4πx10⁻⁷ T.m/A

n: is the number of turns per unit length = 35/cm

r: is the radius of the circle = 3.0 cm

e: is the electron's charge = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹ C  

I = \frac{m*v}{e*\mu_{0}*n*r} = \frac{9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg*3.0 \cdot 10^{5} m/s}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C*4\pi \cdot 10^{-7} T.m/A*3500/m*0.03 m} = 0.0129 A  

Therefore, the current of the solenoid is 0.0129 A.

I hope it helps you!
