<h2>Answer: Superposition</h2><h2 />

The  superposition principle comes as a consequence of the <u>Coulomb's Law</u>, which describes <u>the force between two punctual electrical charges at rest</u>. However, Coulomb's law does not tell us anything about what happens if we have <u>more than two electrical charges</u> or if they are not punctual.

For example, if we have three charges aligned and we want to find the force on one of the ends and how the presence of the central electrical charge influences. The evidence from the experiments has shown that this central charge does not affect the force between them, and this can be expressed by the superposition principle which, in other words, is:

<em>Given a system of punctual charges, the electric force on each of them is the vector sum of the forces due to each of the other charges, as if the rest of the charges were not present. </em>

That is, we can calculate each term by Coulomb's law ignoring completely the existence of other charges.

An alternator provides 20 A of peak current at 100 V peak AC to a resistive electric heater. How much heating power is delivered
Liono4ka [1.6K]

-- The resistance of the heater is (volts/current) = 5 ohms

-- The heating (RMS) value of a sinusoidal AC is V(peak)/√2 .  For this particular alternator, V(peak)=100V, so the heating (RMS) equivalent is 70.71 V.

-- The heating power delivered to the electric heater is (E²/R).

Power = (100/√2)² / 5

Power = 5,000 / 5

<u>Power = 1,000 watts </u>

Which describes how to generate a real image of an object using a concave mirror?The object must be closer to the mirror than th
iren2701 [21]
In order to form a real image using a concave mirror, the object must be placed beyond the center of curvature of the mirror. Therefore, the object must be further from the mirror than the focal point. The image that will form will be real, but it will also be inverted and its magnification will be less than 1, meaning it will be smaller than the actual object.

Describes the first law of thermodynamics
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Thermodynamics is usually defined as a branch of physics that deals with the study of the heat and various form of energy, and their interaction between the.

The first law says that heat appears as energy, and it cannot be produced and also cannot be demolished. It can only change from one form to another. This signifies that the total amount of energy present in the universe remains constant.

This first law can be mathematically represented as:

ΔU = Q - W

where ΔU = Changes occurring in the internal energy

              Q = amount of heat added to the system

              W = Amount of work done by the system
