One circuit contains only an ac generator and a resistor, and the rms current in this circuit is IR. Another circuit contains on

ly an ac generator and a capacitor, and the rms current in this circuit is IC. The maximum, or peak, voltage of the generator is the same in both circuits and does not change. If the frequency of each generator is tripled, by what factor does the ratio IR/IC change?

Answer:

1/3 times.

Explanation:

Let V₀ be the peak voltage .

IR ( rms )  = ( V₀ / √2 R )

R is value of resistance

IC =  ( V₀ ωC / √2  )

( 1 / ωC is reactance of capacitance in ac circuit  )

\frac{I_R}{I_C} =\frac{\frac{V_0}{\sqrt{2}R } }{\frac{V_0\omega C}{\sqrt{2} } }

= \frac{I_R}{I_C} = \frac{1}{\omega C R}

When frequency is tripled angular frequency will also be tripled

hence the ratio \frac{I_R}{I_C} becomes 1/3 times.

Vesna [10]

Work is the amount of energy transferred

Explanation:

In physics, work is a measure of the energy transfer occurring in a process. Typically, we talk about work when energy is converted from one form into another.

For instance, work is done when a force is applied on an object. The work done on the object is given by:

W=Fd cos \theta

where

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

We notice the following:

  • No work is done when the force is perpendicular to the displacement (cos 90^{\circ}=0)
  • The work is maximum when the force is parallel to the displacement

Whenever work is done, there is also an energy transfer taking place. For instance, in the previous example, when the force is applied to the object, the object will accelerate (assume there is no friction), and will gain kinetic energy: therefore, there is a transfer of energy to the object.

Consider two wires made of copper. They have the same diameter but one of them has three times the length of the other. Choose t
boyakko [2]

Answer:

a. Both wires have the same resistivity

Explanation:

For the resistance of a wire , following formula holds good .

R = ρ l / S , R is resistance , l is length , S is cross sectional area and ρ is resistivity of the material that the wire is made of. Resistance is dependent on length and cross sectional area but resistivity does not depend upon length or cross sectional area . It only depends upon the type of material.

If we replace  copper wire with aluminium wire , then resistivity will change .

Hence , since the wire remains made of copper , resistivity will not change.

You will now examine the relationship between the number of field lines through a surface and the tangle betwcen A and E) angle
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

a. cosθ b. E.A

Explanation:

a.The electric flux, Φ passing through a given area is directly proportional to the number of electric field , E, the area it passes through A and the cosine of the angle between E and A. So, if we have a surface, S of surface area A and an area vector dA normal to the surface S and electric field lines of field strength E passing through it, the component of the electric field in the direction of the area vector produces the electric flux through the area. If θ the angle between the electric field E and the area vector dA is zero ,that is θ = 0, the flux through the area is maximum. If  θ = 90 (perpendicular) the flux is zero. If θ = 180 the flux is negative. Also, as A or E increase or decrease, the electric flux increases or decreases respectively. From our trigonometric functions, we know that 0 ≤ cos θ ≤ 1 for  90 ≤ θ ≤ 0 and -1 ≤ cos θ ≤ 0 for 180 ≤ θ ≤ 90. Since these satisfy the limiting conditions for the values of our electric flux, then cos θ is the required trigonometric function. In the attachment, there is a graph which shows the relationship between electric flux and the angle between the electric field lines and the area. It is a cosine function  

b. From above, we have established that our electric flux, Ф = EAcosθ. Since this is the expression for the dot product of two vectors E and A where E is the number of electric field lines passing through the surface and A is the area of the surface and θ the angle between them, we write the electric flux as Ф = E.A
