Dmitrij [34]3 years ago

An electrical generator and motor are two machines that operate oppositely.


An electrical generator uses mechanical energy, converting it to produce electrical energy. This mechanical energy is provided in most cases from a spinning/rotating action in which a wire or loop of wire spins in a magnetic field. This causes the wire to move sharply through the magnetic field, causing current to flow, and in turn, creating electricity.


An electrical motor does the opposite, but uses the same principles, converting electrical energy to produce mechanical energy. The motor will have an alternating current (AC) moving through pairs of magnets, producing a rotating magnetic field. This causes the motor's central rotor to spin, powering whatever machinery it is hooked up to.

Which of the following has the most momentum? proton (m=1.67 x 10-27 kg) moving at 2.0 x 104 m/s,an electron (m=9.11 x 10-31 kg)
Tom [10]

Answer:

The North American tectonic plate.

Explanation:

recall the formula for momentum: p = m * v

the subatomic particles have very small masses while high speeds, so the product results in values with negative exponents in scientific notation.

Negative exponents also result for the house fly when converting mg into kg (10^-6).

The positive exponents in scientific notation for the momentum come for the gigantic mass of the continental plate which exceeds the negative exponents contributed by the small velocity.

A car starts from the state of xestIf its velocity becomes 70 km/hr in 6 minutes, i) what is the accordine acceleration of F the
Alexxandr [17]

Answer: 3.5\ km

Explanation:

Given

Car starts from the state of rest and acquires a velocity of 70\ km/hr in 6 minutes

Final velocity in m/s is v=70\approx 19.44\ m/s

Using equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 19.44=0+a(6\times 60)\\\Rightarrow a=0.054\ m/s^2

Distance covered in 360 s

\Rightarrow v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow 19.44^2-0=2\times 0.054\times s\\\Rightarrow s=3500.64\ m\approx 3.5\ km
