Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

AC current stands for alternating current. In an alternating current there is periodically reverse movement of current.

This means electrons move in one direction for a certain time and then they reverse their movement for the same time period and it continues in the back and forth position.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement electrons move back and forth is true regarding AC current.

Two rods are made from materials that have different Young's moduli. The rods are constructed to have the same length and same c
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

This is true,the rod with smaller elastic modulus will stretch more than larger elastic modulus.

Explanation:

σ=E*ε

ε=δ/L

σ=E*δ/L

δ=(σ*L)/E

σ=F/A

δ=(F*L)/(A*E)

As Force,Area and Length is same

δ∞1/E

From the expression as E increase δ will be small,so there will be more stretch for smaller elastic modulus.

A rock is lifted by a machine to a height of 10m. If it has a mass of 22 kilograms
zmey [24]

Answer:

2156J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of lift  = 10m

Mass  = 22kg

Unknown:

Work done by the machine  = ?

Solution:

Work done is the force applied to move a body through a certain distance.

So;

        Work done  = Force x distance

Here;

       Work done  = mass x acceleration due to gravity x height

      Work done  = 22 x 9.8 x 10  = 2156J

Mr. Galonski loves to use the Electromagnetic Spectrum. Create a scenario in which Mr. Galonski is using waves from the electrom
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The Scenario:

On a normal Sunday afternoon Mr. Golanski is sitting in his living room reading his book. He decides after a while to turn on the Television to see what’s on the news, (Mr. Golanski is using Radio waves when he turns his television on by signaling the TV from his remote control). After a few hours Mr. Golanski decides it’s time to have dinner. He heats up a quick meal in his microwave because he doesn’t have the patience for cooking. (He is using microwave radiation to heat his food because water molecules in food absorb the radiation). He sits down for his meal, and halfway through he starts to choke! In a panicked frenzy he runs to his bathroom to try and dislodge the obstacle from his throat. By doing so he switched on the fluorescent lights in his bathroom exposing himself to small amounts of ultraviolet radiation. (Fluorescent lights absorb UV radiation and transmit visible light along with small amounts of UV light). Unable to dislodge the obstacle from his throat Mr. Golanski seeks help from his neighbor who drives him straight to the ER. To treat him properly the physicians opt for a fluoroscopy to examine Mr. Golanski’s esophageal tract. (Thus he is making use of X-ray imaging to obtain a visual of his internal esophageal structure to check for the obstruction). Once treated and discharged from the hospital Mr. Golanski returns home grateful to have survived this ordeal with minimum damage.

Explanation:

The Electromagnetic Spectrum is the range of frequencies and wavelengths for different light waves. They range with increasing frequency from Radio waves, to Microwaves, to Infrared waves, to Visible waves, to Ultraviolet waves, to Infrared waves, to X-rays, and to Gamma rays. Several of which we use in our daily lives such as Radio waves when operating our television or using our cellular phones. We also use microwaves to heat our food or for communication with satellites. We are also exposed to natural Ultraviolet radiation from the sun; however, we can also get exposed to other forms such as from certain types of light bulbs. We see visible light in the form of all the colors we can detect around us. We make use of x-rays for imaging techniques widely used in medicine for diagnostics, as well as Infrared waves in our home security systems. The electromagnetic spectrum is always used as a part of our everyday life.

A ball traveling at a speed ν0 rolls off a desk and lands at a horizontal distance x0 away from the desk, as shown in the figure
klasskru [66]

Answer:

3x_0

Explanation:

The horizontal distance covered by the ball in the falling is only determined by its horizontal motion - in fact, it is given by

d=v_x t

where

v_x is the horizontal velocity

t is the time of flight

The time of flight, instead, is only determined by the vertical motion of the ball: however, in this problem the vertical velocity is not changed (it is zero in both cases), so the time of flight remains the same.

In the first situation, the horizontal distance covered is

d=v_0 t = x_0

in the second case, the horizontal velocity is increased to

v_x' = 3v_0

And so the new distance travelled will be

d' = v_x' t = 3 v_0 t = 3 x_0

So, the distance increases linearly with the horizontal velocity.
