1. A car is stopped at a red light. When the light turns green, the car starts
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

Because of inertia (Newton's First Law of motion)

Explanation:

According to Newton's First Law of motion:

"An object at rest (or in motion at constant velocity) will tend to stay at rest (or tend to keep moving with same velocity) unless acted upon an unbalanced force"

In this problem, the object we are analyzing is the coffee cup.

At the beginning, the cup is at rest, together with the car.

Later, the car starts moving when the light turns green.

If we apply Newton's First Law of motion to the cup, we see that the coffee cup tends to keep its state of rest: for this reason, as the car moves forward, the coffee in the cup will spill backward, into the rear seat. This property of an object to mantain its state of motion is also called as inertia.

An ac generator with Em = 223 V and operating at 399 Hz causes oscillations in a series RLC circuit having R = 222 Ω, L = 147 mH
Doss [256]

Answer:

Xc= 17.267 Ω,   Z= 415.5 Ω,   I= 0.537 A

Explanation:

Em = 223 V

f= 300 Hz, R = 222 Ω, L = 147 mH,  C = 23.1 μF

a)

Capacitive reactance = Xc=?

Xc= \frac{1}{2\pi fC}

Xc=1/2pi *399*23.1*10^-6

Xc= 17.267 Ω

b).

Z=\sqrt{ R^2 + (Xl - Xc)^2}

Xl= 2π * f * L  

Xl= 2π * 399 * 147 * 10^{-3}

Xl= 368.5 Ω

Z=\sqrt{ R^2 + (Xl - Xc)^2} = \sqrt{222^2 + (368.5 - 17.267)^2}

Z= 415.5 Ω  

c).

Current:

I= V / Z= Em / Z

I= 223/415.5

I= 0.537 A

In a particular experiment to study the photoelectric effect, the frequency of the incident light and the temperature of the met
qwelly [4]

Answer:

B. The number of electrons emitted from the metal per second increases.

Explanation:

Light consists of photons . Energy of each photon depends upon frequency of light . The increase in intensity increases the number of photons . It does not increase energy of photons .

So if a high intensity light falls on a photosensitive plate , each photon ejects one electron . So number of electrons increases if we increase intensity of photon. It does not increase kinetic energy of ejected electrons . Work function depends upon the nature of plate.
