Answer: Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, rather it is converted from one form to another

Explanation:

The principle of conversation of energy explains how energy is conserved in nature by being converted from one form to another such that no energy is created nor destroyed.

Practical examples include:

- electrical pressing iron that converts electrical energy to heat energy

- solar panels that converts solar energy to electrical energy

- Car batteries that converts chemical energy to light energy etc

Explain why a cow that touches an electric fence experiences a mild shock

Minchanka [31]

The voltage exists between the fence and the ground. The cow is grounded. The cow is touching the ground, completing the circuit of electricity. When the cow comes into contact with the fence, it becomes an electric ground which sends an electric current into the cow, through the cow, and into the ground. The pain experienced from the shock is due to the current that flows through the cow.

How many excess electrons must be present on each sphere if the magnitude of the force of repulsion between them is 3.33Ã—Ã—10âˆ

AlekseyPX

Answer:

There are 756.25 electrons present on each sphere.

Explanation:

Given that,

The force of repression between electrons, $F=3.33\times 10^{-21}\ N$

Let the distance between charges, d = 0.2 m

The electric force of repulsion between the electrons is given by :

$F=k\dfrac{q^2}{r^2}$

$q=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fr^2}{k}}$

$q=\sqrt{\dfrac{3.33\times 10^{-21}\times (0.2)^2}{9\times 10^9}}$

$q=1.21\times 10^{-16}\ C$

Let n are the number of excess electrons present on each sphere. It can be calculated using quantization of charges. It is given by :

q = ne

$n=\dfrac{q}{e}$

$n=\dfrac{1.21\times 10^{-16}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}$

n = 756.25 electrons

So, there are 756.25 electrons present on each sphere. Hence, this is the required solution.

Of the following systems, which contains the most heat?

densk [106]

Answer:d

Explanation:

Given systems are state of matter and do not contain any heat instead Heat is required to change Phase or raise the temperature of the particular system.

For example 600 kg of ice at $0^{\circ}C$

Heat Required to convert it to water at $0^{\circ}C$ is

$Q=m\times L$

Where L=latent heat of Fusion $=334 J/gm$

$Q=600\times 334\times 1000$

$Q=200.4 MJ$

Define nortons theorem

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

In direct-current circuit theory, Norton's theorem is a simplification that can be applied to networks made of linear time-invariant resistances, voltage sources, and current sources. At a pair of terminals of the network, it can be replaced by a current source and a single resistor in parallel.
