Technician A says that current is created in the stator windings of an alternator. Technician B says that the voltage regulator

Answer:

Technician A and Technician B both are right.

Explanation:

In an AC alternator, there are two windings

1. Stator winding (stationary)

2. Rotor winding (rotating)

The current is induced in the stationary coils due to the magnetic field produced by the rotor. The DC suppy is provided to the rotor winding via slip rings and brushes and a voltage regulator precisely controls this supply to control the current flow through the rotor.

Therefore, both technicians are right.

Tennis balls traveling at greater than 100 mph routinely bounce off tennis rackets. At some sufficiently high speed, however, th

Kipish [7]

Answer:

Probability of tunneling is $10^{- 1.17\times 10^{32}}$

Solution:

As per the question:

Velocity of the tennis ball, v = 120 mph = 54 m/s

Mass of the tennis ball, m = 100 g = 0.1 kg

Thickness of the tennis ball, t = 2.0 mm = $2.0\times 10^{- 3}\ m$

Max velocity of the tennis ball, $v_{m} = 200\ mph$ = 89 m/s

Now,

The maximum kinetic energy of the tennis ball is given by:

$KE = \frac{1}{2}mv_{m}^{2} = \frac{1}{2}\times 0.1\times 89^{2} = 396.05\ J$

Kinetic energy of the tennis ball, KE' = $\frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = 0.5\times 0.1\times 54^{2} = 154.8\ m/s$

Now, the distance the ball can penetrate to is given by:

$\eta = \frac{\bar{h}}{\sqrt{2m(KE - KE')}}$

$\bar{h} = \frac{h}{2\pi} = \frac{6.626\times 10^{- 34}}{2\pi} = 1.0545\times 10^{- 34}\ Js$

Thus

$\eta = \frac{1.0545\times 10^{- 34}}{\sqrt{2\times 0.1(396.05 - 154.8)}}$

$\eta = \frac{1.0545\times 10^{- 34}}{\sqrt{2\times 0.1(396.05 - 154.8)}}$

$\eta = 1.52\times 10^{-35}\ m$

Now,

We can calculate the tunneling probability as:

$P(t) = e^{\frac{- 2t}{\eta}}$

$P(t) = e^{\frac{- 2\times 2.0\times 10^{- 3}}{1.52\times 10^{-35}}} = e^{-2.63\times 10^{32}}$

$P(t) = e^{-2.63\times 10^{32}}$

Taking log on both the sides:

$logP(t) = -2.63\times 10^{32} loge$

$P(t) = 10^{- 1.17\times 10^{32}}$

A comet is cruising through the solar system at a speed of 50,000 kilometers per hour foe 4 hours time. What is the total distan

Triss [41]

Answer:

<em>The distance covered by comet is </em> $200,000 km$

Explanation:

Speed is defined as the rate of change of distance with time. It is given by the equation speed= $\bold{\frac{distance}{time}}$

Thus distance= $speed*time$

In this problem it is given that speed of comet= $\frac{50,000km}{hr}$

time travelled by the comet= 4 hours

Thus distance= $speed*time$

= $500000*4$

= $\bold{200,000km}$

) Water falls from a height of 60m at the rate of 15kg/s to operate a turbine. The losses due to frictional force are 10% of ene

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

8100W

Explanation:

Let g = 10m/s2

As water is falling from 60m high, its potential energy from 60m high would convert to power. So the rate of change in potential energy is

$P = \dot{E} = \dot{m}gh = 15*10*60 = 9000 J/s$ or 9000W

Since 10% of this is lost to friction, we take the remaining 90 %

P = 9000*90% = 8100 W

What is the difference between chemical change and a physical change?

NeX [460]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are several differences between a physical and chemical change in matter or substances. A physical change in a substance doesn't change what the substance is. In a chemical change where there is a chemical reaction, a new substance is formed and energy is either given off or absorbed.
