1 answer:

ad-work [718]3 years ago

6 0

Answer:

It can put out more force than the input force by decreasing the distance through which force is applied.
It can apply a force to an object in a different direction than the force applied to the machine.

Explanation:

Assuming the machine is a simple machine, such as a lever or pulley, the machine will not do any more work than is put into it. However, it can change the magnitude or direction (or both) of the input force required to achieve a particular output force.

Because the machine does not increase the work done, if the output force is greater, the output distance must be less.

The applicable observations are ...

It can put out more force than the input force by decreasing the distance through which force is applied.
It can apply a force to an object in a different direction than the force applied to the machine.

One ring of radius a is uniformly charged with charge +Q and is placed so its axis is the x-axis. A second ring with charge –Q i

kati45 [8]

Answer:

The force exerted on an electron is $7.2\times10^{-18}\ N$

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge = 3 μC

Radius a=1 m

Distance = 5 m

We need to calculate the electric field at any point on the axis of a charged ring

Using formula of electric field

$E=\dfrac{kqx}{(a^2+x^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}\hat{x}$

$E_{1}=\dfrac{kqx}{(a^2+x^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}\hat{x}$

Put the value into the formula

$E_{1}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times3\times10^{-6}\times5}{(1^2+5^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

$E_{1}=1.0183\times10^{3}\ N/C$

Using formula of electric field again

$E_{2}=\dfrac{kqx}{(a^2+x^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}\hat{x}$

Put the value into the formula

$E_{2}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times(-3\times10^{-6})\times5}{((0.5)^2+5^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

$E_{2}=-1.064\times10^{3}\ N/C$

We need to calculate the resultant electric field

Using formula of electric field

$E=E_{1}+E_{2}$

Put the value into the formula

$E=1.0183\times10^{3}-1.064\times10^{3}$

$E=-0.045\times10^{3}\ N/C$

We need to calculate the force exerted on an electron

Using formula of electric field

$E = \dfrac{F}{q}$

$F=E\times q$

Put the value into the formula

$F=-0.045\times10^{3}\times(-1.6\times10^{-19})$

$F=7.2\times10^{-18}\ N$

Hence, The force exerted on an electron is $7.2\times10^{-18}\ N$

Which of the following describe advantages of using radio waves over other electromagnetic waves to transmit information to Eart

Whitepunk [10]

The correct options are:

"Radio waves have a lower frequency, which makes them safer for humans."

"Radio waves take less energy to produce."

<h3>Why do we radio waves over other electromagnetic waves to transmit information to Earth? </h3>

Radio waves are electromagnetic waves with frequencies on the range from 10 KHz to 10 THz.

Now, remember that all electromagnetic waves have the same speed, which is the speed of light, and the energy of a wave is proportional to its frequency.

Particularly, we can see that radio waves have small frequencies (smaller than infrared light) so these waves carry very little energy.

With that in mind, the correct options are.

"Radio waves have a lower frequency, which makes them safer for humans."

"Radio waves take less energy to produce."

These are the two main reasons of why we use radio waves.
