What is power in physics​

Physics
1 answer:
Shkiper50 [21]3 years ago
8 0

Edit

In physics, power is the rate of doing work or of transferring heat, i.e. the amount of energy transferred or converted per unit time. Having no direction, it is a scalarquantity. In the International System of Units, the unit of power is the joule per second (J/s), known as the watt in honour of James Watt, the eighteenth-century developer of the condenser steam engine. Another common and traditional measure is horsepower (comparing to the power of a horse). Being the rate of work, the equation for power can be written:

Power

Common symbols

Derivations from

other quantities

P = E/t

P = F·v

P = V·I

P = T·ω

As a physical concept, power requires both a change in the physical system and a specified time in which the change occurs. This is distinct from the concept of work, which is only measured in terms of a net change in the state of the physical system. The same amount of work is done when carrying a load up a flight of stairs whether the person carrying it walks or runs, but more power is needed for running because the work is done in a shorter amount of time.

A closed-end organ pipe is used to produce a mixture of sounds. The third and fifth harmonics in the mixture have frequencies of
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

F_1=366.67Hz

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Frequency of 3rd harmonics F_3=1100

Frequency of 5th harmonics F_3=1833

Generally the equation for Wavelength at 3rd Harmonics is mathematically given by

 \lambda_3=\frac{4}{3}l

Therefore

 F_3=\frac{3v}{4l}

Generally the equation for Wavelength at 1st Harmonics is mathematically given by

 \lambda_1=\frac{4}{1}l

Therefore

 F_1=\frac{v}{4l}

Generally the equation for the frequency of the first harmonic is mathematically given by

 F_1=\frac{F_3}{3}

 F_1=\frac{1100}{3}

 F_1=366.67Hz

A +5.00 pC charge is located on a sheet of paper.
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

a)    V = - x ( σ / 2ε₀)

c)  parallel to the flat sheet of paper

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we use the relationship between the electric field and the electric potential

          V = - ∫ E . dx        (1)

for which we need the electric field of the sheet of paper, for this we use Gauss's law. Let us use as a Gaussian surface a cylinder with faces parallel to the sheet

       Ф = ∫ E . dA = q_{int} /ε₀

the electric field lines are perpendicular to the sheet, therefore they are parallel to the normal of the area, which reduces the scalar product to the algebraic product

          E A = q_{int} /ε₀

area let's use the concept of density

        σ = q_{int}/ A

       q_{int} = σ A

          E = σ /ε₀

as the leaf emits bonnet towards both sides, for only one side the field must be

          E = σ / 2ε₀

         we substitute in equation 1 and integrate

      V = - σ x / 2ε₀  

       V = - x ( σ / 2ε₀)

if the area of ​​the sheeta is 100 cm² = 10⁻² m²

      V = - x  (10⁻²/(2 8.85 10⁻¹²) = - x  ( 5.6 10⁻¹⁰)

       

      x = 1 cm     V = -1   V

      x = 2cm     V = -2   V

This value is relative to the loaded sheet if we combine our reference system the values ​​are inverted

       V ’= V (inf) - V

       x = 1 V = 5

       x = 2 V = 4

       x = 3 V = 3

   

These surfaces are perpendicular to the electric field lines, so they are parallel to the sheet.

 

In the attachment we can see a schematic representation of the equipotential surfaces

b) From the equation we can see that the equipotential surfaces are parallel to the sheet and equally spaced

c) parallel to the flat sheet of paper
