<h2>Answer: Generator</h2>

Alternating Current (AC) is the electric current in which the magnitude and direction vary cyclically.

In other words:

It is a variable electric current in which <u>electrical charges change the direction of movement periodically</u>.

Unlike Direct Current (DC), that is produced by a chemical reaction (a battery, for example), alternating current is produced by a <u>generator</u> that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.

A block of mass 12.2 kg is sliding at an initial velocity of 3.9 m/s in the positive x-direction. The surface has a coefficient
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Force of friction = μ R where μ is coefficient of kinetic friction and R is reaction force

R = mg where m is mass of the block

Force of friction F = μ x mg

= .173 x 12.2 x 9.8

= 20.68 N

b ) Only force of friction is acting on the body so

deceleration = force / mass = 20.68 / 12.2 = 1.7 m /s²

acceleration = - 1.7 m /s²

c )

v² = u² - 2 a s

v = 0 , u = 3.9 m /s

a = 1.7 m /s

0 = 3.9² - 2 x 1.7 x s

s = 4.47  m

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Therefore % increase in velocity is 18.23 %

Explanation:

we use the equality of mass flow rate and the areas

m_1 = m_2\\p_1v_1 = p_2v_2\\p_1A_1v_1 = p_2A_2v_2\\v_2 = \frac{p_1}{p_2} v_1

The percentage increase in velocity is

Δ v% = \frac{v_2 - v_1}{v_1} \\100%

= \frac{p_1}{p_2} v_1 - v_1.100%

= \frac{\frac{1.2}{1.015} - 1}{1} . 100%

= Therefore % increase in velocity is 18.23 %

A 55-kg woman is wearing high heels. If each heel has a circular cross-section 6.0 mm in diameter and she puts all her weight on
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

The pressure exerted by the woman on the floor is 1.9061 x 10⁷ N/m²

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the woman, m = 55 kg

diameter of the circular heel, d = 6.0 mm

radius of the heel, r = 3.0 mm = 0.003 m

Cross-sectional area of the heel is given by;

A = πr²

A = π(0.003)²

A = 2.8278 x 10⁻⁵ m²

The weight of the woman is given by;

W = mg

W = 55 x 9.8

W = 539 N

The pressure exerted by the woman on the floor is given by;

P = F / A

P = W / A

P = 539 / (2.8278 x 10⁻⁵ )

P = 1.9061 x 10⁷ N/m²

Therefore, the pressure exerted by the woman on the floor is 1.9061 x 10⁷ N/m²
