Answer:

Generators don't actually create electricity. Instead they convert mechanical or chemical energy into electrical energy. They do this by capturing the power of motion and turning it into electrical energy by forcing electrons from the external source through an electrical circuit.

Why are images reflected from a rough surface not as clear as those reflected from a smooth

ioda

Answer:

Just as images are reflected from the surface of a mirror, light reflected from a smooth water surface also produced a clear image. ... Consequently, the outgoing rays are reflected at many different angles and the image is disrupted. Reflection from such a rough surface is called diffuse reflection and appears matte.

If a wave has amplitude of 2 meters, a wavelength of 2 meters, and a frequency of 10 Hz, and a period of 1 second, then at what

Serhud [2]

Answer:

20 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is given by:

$v=\lambda f$

where

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

f is the frequency

v is the speed

For the wave in this problem,

f = 10 Hz is the frequency

$\lambda=2 m$ is the wavelength

So the speed is

$v=(10 Hz)(2 m)=20 m/s$

A 3.00 kg object is moving in the XY plane, with its x and y coordinates given by x = 5t³ !1 and y = 3t ² + 2, where x and y are

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The net force acting on this object is 180.89 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 3.00 kg

Coordinate of position of $x= 5t^3+1$

Coordinate of position of $y=3t^2+2$

Time = 2.00 s

We need to calculate the acceleration

$a = \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}$

For x coordinates

$x=5t^3+1$

On differentiate w.r.to t

$\dfrac{dx}{dt}=15t^2+0$

On differentiate again w.r.to t

$\dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}=30t$

The acceleration in x axis at 2 sec

$a = 60i$

For y coordinates

$y=3t^2+2$

On differentiate w.r.to t

$\dfrac{dy}{dt}=6t+0$

On differentiate again w.r.to t

$\dfrac{d^2y}{dt^2}=6$

The acceleration in y axis at 2 sec

$a = 6j$

The acceleration is

$a=60i+6j$

We need to calculate the net force

$F = ma$

$F = 3.00\times(60i+6j)$

$F=180i+18j$

The magnitude of the force

$|F|=\sqrt{(180)^2+(18)^2}$

$|F|=180.89\ N$

Hence, The net force acting on this object is 180.89 N.

Please help if you can.

VMariaS [17]

Initially there were 10 bulbs of 60 Watt power

So total power of all bulbs = 60 * 10 = 600 W

now each bulb used for 4 hours daily

so total energy consumed daily

$E = P * t$

$E = 600 * 4 = 2400 Wh$

$E = 2.4 kWh$

now we have total power consumed in 1 year

$E = 365 * 2.4 = 876 kWh$

cost of electricity = 10 cents/ kWh

so total cost of energy for one year

$P_1 = 876 * 10 = 8760 cents = $87.60$

Now if all 60 Watt bulbs are replaced by 30 Watt bulbs

So total power of all bulbs = 30 * 10 = 300 W

now each bulb used for 4 hours daily

so total energy consumed daily

$E = P * t$

$E = 300 * 4 = 1200 Wh$

$E = 1.2 kWh$

now we have total power consumed in 1 year

$E = 365 * 1.2 = 438 kWh$

cost of electricity = 10 cents/ kWh

so total cost of energy for one year

$P_1 = 438 * 10 = 4380 cents = $43.80$

total money saved in 1 year

$Savings = 87.6 - 43.8 = $43.80$

Compare and contrast series and parallel circuits?

dalvyx [7]

In a series circuit, a common current flows through all the components of the circuit. While in a parallel circuit, a different amount of current flows through each parallel branch of the circuit. Whereas in the parallel circuit, the same voltage exists across the multiple components in the circuit.
