When you turn on a battery-operated device, an electrical circuit is closed.

Explanation:

A circuit works, only when it is closed. When we turn on the battery-operated device, the circuit is closed & complete. Hence, the current will flow across the circuit.

Only closed circuits work (current flows through them). No current can flow in an open circuit.

How light is channelled down an optical fibre
coldgirl [10]

Explanation:

Suppose you want to shine a flashlight beam down a long, straight hallway. Just point the beam straight down the hallway -- light travels in straight lines, so it is no problem. What if the hallway has a bend in it? You could place a mirror at the bend to reflect the light beam around the corner. What if the hallway is very winding with multiple bends? You might line the walls with mirrors and angle the beam so that it bounces from side-to-side all along the hallway. This is exactly what happens in an optical fiber.

The light in a fiber-optic cable travels through the core (hallway) by constantly bouncing from the cladding (mirror-lined walls), a principle called total internal reflection. Because the cladding does not absorb any light from the core, the light wave can travel great distances.

However, some of the light signal degrades within the fiber, mostly due to impurities in the glass. The extent that the signal degrades depends on the purity of the glass and the wavelength of the transmitted light (for example, 850 nm = 60 to 75 percent/km; 1,300 nm = 50 to 60 percent/km; 1,550 nm is greater than 50 percent/km). Some premium optical fibers show much less signal degradation -- less than 10 percent/km at 1,550 nm.

What is the passenger's apparent weight at t=1.0s?
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

For the complete question provided in explanation, if the elevator moves upward, then the apparent weight will be 1035 N. While for downward motion the apparent weight will be 435 N.

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. The complete question contains a velocity graph provided in the attachment. This is the velocity graph for an elevator having a passenger of 75 kg.

From the slope of graph it is clear that acceleration at t = 1 sec is given as:

Acceleration = a = (4-0)m/s / (1-0)s = 4 m/s^2

Now, there are two cases:

1- Elevator moving up

2- Elevator moving down

For upward motion:

Apparent Weight =  m(g + a)

Apparent Weight = (75 kg)(9.8 + 4)m/s^2

<u>Apparent Weight = 1035 N</u>

For downward motion:

Apparent Weight =  m(g - a)

Apparent Weight = (75 kg)(9.8 - 4)m/s^2

<u>Apparent Weight = 435 N</u>
