Each of two identical objects carries a net charge. The objects are made from conducting material. One object is attracted to a

positively charged ebonite rod, and the other is repelled by the rod. After the objects are touched together, it is found that they are each attracted by the rod. What can be concluded about the initial charges on the objects

Answer:

Initially one object is positive and one is negative , with the positive charge having a greater magnitude than the negative charge.

Explanation:

The object that is attracted to a positively charged ebonite rod, must have the negative charge as the oppose charges attract. However the object that is repelled by the rod must have the positive charge because the same charges repel that's why object move away from the rod.

Now after the objects are touched together, then there must be a flow of charge from one object to other until they got the equal charge in magnitude. As the both objects repel the rod it means both have now got the positive charge. So there must be initially a positive charge wih higher magnitude.

So we can conclude that,

" Initially one object is positive and one is negative , with the positive charge having a greater magnitude than the negative charge."

A wire of length 26.0 cm carrying a current of 5.77 mA is to be formed into a circular coil and placed in a uniform magnetic fie
Olin [163]

Answer:

The maximum torque is  \tau_{max} =  1.139 *10^{-7} \ N \cdot m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The length of the wire is  l =  26.0 \ cm  =  0.26 \  m

     The current flowing through the wire is  I  = 5.77mA  =  5.77 *10^{-3} \ A

      The magnetic field is  B = 3.67 \ mT  =  3.67 *10^{-3 } T

         

The maximum torque is mathematically evaluated as

        \tau_{max} =   \mu B  

Where \mu  is the magnetic dipole moment which is mathematically represented as

        \mu  =  \frac{I l^2}{4 \pi n }

Where n is the number of turns which from the question is  1

    substituting values

       \mu  =  \frac{ 5.77 *10^{-3}  *  0.26^2}{4  * 3.142* 1 }

     \mu  =  3.10 4*  10^{-5}  A m^2

Now  

      \tau_{max} =  3.104 *10^{-5} * 3.67 *10^{-3}  

      \tau_{max} =  1.139 *10^{-7} \ N \cdot m

Place the types of radiation in order of INCREASING mass.
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer & explanation:

  • Gamma Radiation (γ):  Also called gamma rays. Gamma radiation is made of electromagnetic waves, has zero charge and mass, continuously emits heat and has the ability to ionize air and make it conductive of electric current.
  • Beta radiation (β): Beta rays or beta particles, are electrons, negative particles with charge - 1 and mass number 0.
  • Alpha radiation (α): Also called alpha particles or alpha rays, are particles charged by two protons and two neutrons.  They have positive charge +2 and mass number 4.

For a 1 efficient step down transformer voltage in primary and secondary are equal current in primary and secondary are equal in
Fynjy0 [20]

The given condition for a 100% efficient  step down transformer is not true.

<h3>How do Step-down Transformers work?</h3>

Because there are fewer turns in the secondary winding of a step-down transformer, the secondary voltage is lower than the initial voltage. As a result, this kind of transformer is employed to reduce the voltage to the levels intended for the circuit. Almost all power supply incorporate a step-down transformer to keep the operating voltage range of the circuit within acceptable limits. Electronic transformers and distribution systems are often where these transformers are installed (power transformers).

<h3>What Does a Step-Down Transformer Mean by Power?</h3>

Using the system voltage and current, we can calculate the power of a transformer. Volt-Amps, or VA, is the unit used to measure the power in a transformer (for larger transformers Kilo Volt-Amps, kVA).

Any transformer should, in theory, have constant power on both sides, which implies that the power available on the secondary side of the transformer should match the power available on the primary side. This also applies to step-down transformers. A step-down transformer's secondary side has a lower voltage than its primary side, hence in order to balance the transformer's total power, the secondary current would need to be increased.

<h3>What is the Step-Down Transformer's Relationship Between Voltage and Current?</h3>

In a step-down transformer, the output current is greater than the input current while the output voltage is lower than the primary voltage.
