Which of the following statements describes a battery?

LiRa [457]

Answer:

The negative electrode of a battery has an excess of positive charge

Explanation:

This is because in every battery, there is a negative electrode ( cathode ) and only positive charge is deposited on it.

For other statements:

Batteries donot store electric charge but they store chemical energy

Some batteries donot use metals for the flow of electrons, but some use hydrogen gas at a pressure of 1 atmosphere.

To view an interactive solution to a problem that is similar to this one, select Interactive Solution 7.24. A 0.0129-kg bullet i

ipn [44]

Answer:

t=0.42s

Explanation:

Here you have an inelastic collision. By the conservation of the momentum you have:

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v$

m1: mass of the bullet

m2: wooden block mass

v1: velocity of the bullet

v2: velocity of the wooden block

v: velocity of bullet and wooden block after the collision.

By noticing that after the collision, both objects reach the same height from where the wooden block was dropped, you can assume that v is equal to the negative of v2. In other words:

$m_1(-v_1)+m_2v_2=(m1+m2)(-v2)$

Where you assumed that the negative direction is upward. By replacing and doing v2 the subject of the formula you get:

$-(0.0129kg)(767m/s)+(1.17kg)v_2=(1.1829kg)(-v_2)\\\\v_2=4.20m/s$

Now, with this information you can use the equation for the final speed of an accelerated motion and doing t the subject of the formula. IN other words:

$v_2=v_o+gt\\\\t=\frac{v_2-v_o}{g}=\frac{4.2m/s-0m/s}{9.8m/s^2}=0.42s$

hence, the time is t=0.42 s

For a photoelectric tube, calculate the voltage which will be just sufficient to stop electrons emitted by the sodium photo-plat

Talja [164]

Answer:

1.11 V

Explanation:

Given that the Einstein photoelectric equation states that;

KE = E - Wo

E = energy of incident photon

Wo= work function of the metal

E = hf = 6.64 x 10-34 * 6 x 1014

E = 39.84 * 10^-20 J or 3.98 * 10^-19 J

KE = 3.98 * 10^-19 J - 2.2 x 10-19J

KE = 1.78 * 10^-19J

We convert this value of KE to electron volts

KE = 1.78 * 10^-19J/1.6 x 10-19C

KE = 1.11 eV

Hence; 1.11 V will be just sufficient to stop electrons emitted by the sodium photo-plate reaching the collector plate.

A baseball pitcher throws the ball in a motion where there is rotation of the forearm about the elbow joint as well as other mov

Brums [2.3K]

Answer: 330.88 J

Explanation:

Given

Linear velocity of the ball, v = 17.1 m/s

Distance from the joint, d = 0.47 m

Moment of inertia, I = 0.5 kgm²

The rotational kinetic energy, KE(rot) of an object is given by

KE(rot) = 1/2Iw²

Also, the angular velocity is given

w = v/r

Firstly, we calculate the angular velocity. Since it's needed in calculating the Kinetic Energy

w = v/r

w = 17.1 / 0.47

w = 36.38 rad/s

Now, substituting the value of w, with the already given value of I in the equation, we have

KE(rot) = 1/2Iw²

KE(rot) = 1/2 * 0.5 * 36.38²

KE(rot) = 0.25 * 1323.5

KE(rot) = 330.88 J
