Answer:

(B) Resistor only

Explanation:

Alternating Current: These are currents that changes periodically with time.

An LRC Ac circuit is an AC circuit that contains a Resistor, a capacitor and an inductor, connected in series.

In a purely resistive circuit, current and voltage are in phase.

In a purely capacitive circuit, the current leads the voltage by π/2

In a purely inductive circuit, the current lags the voltage by π/2.

Therefore when a alternating current is set up in LRC circuit, in the resistor, the current and the voltage are in phase.

The right option is (B) Resistor only.

A wave will "break" because ________. a wave will "break" because ________. the sediment load of water is greater near the shore

vodka [1.7K]

A wave will "break" because the bottom interferes with its oscillatory motion. Breaking of waves may occur anywhere that the amplitude is sufficient, including in mid-ocean. When waves enter shallow water they break because the motion of water in lower part of the wave nearest the bottom is slowed by friction so that their oscillation is faster than its supporting portion at the bottom. Thus, the wave collapses forward and breaks.

Which scenario will drain the battery in the circuit diagram fastest: three 20 W bulbs in positions one, two, and three or 80 W

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

If you connect the three bulbs 20 W each will have a total power of 60W.

Now we need to understand to assign the meaning of the word gap, that is, if the circuit is open at that point or if there is no bulb connected at that point.

If the circuit is open at Point 2, there will be no current in the circuit, so the battery will drain faster with the three bulbs 20W.

In the second event, where gap means that there are no bulbs connected at that point, it means that you have two bulbs connected in series of 80W each.

In this case the bulbs will consume 160W thus drain the battery faster than the three 20W bulbs connected in series.

A spacecraft is in a circular Earth orbit at an altitude of 6000 km . By how much will its altitude decrease if it moves to a ne

blagie [28]

Answer:

a) 2148 km = 2150 km

b) 840 km

Explanation:

The force keeping the satellite in circular motion is the force given by Netwon's gravitational law

Centripetal force = (mv²/r)

Force due to Newton's law of gravitation = (GMm/r²)

where m = mass of satellite

M = mass of the earth

G = Gravitational constant

v = velocity of the satellite

r = radius of circular orbit

(mv²/r) = (GMm/r²)

v² = (GM/r)

Meaning that the square of the velocity of orbit is inversely proportional to the radius of circular orbit. (Since G and M are constants)

v² = (k/r)

when v = v₀, r = 6000 + 6378 = 12,378 km (the radius of orbit = 6000 km + radius of the earth)

v₀² = (k/12,378)

K = 12378v₀²

When the velocity increases by 10%, v₁ = 1.1v₀, the square of the new velocity = (1.1v₀)² = 1.21v₀² and the new radius of orbit = r₁

1.21v₀² = (k/r₁)

r₁ = (k/1.21v₀²)

Recall, k = 12378v₀²

r₁ = 12378v₀² ÷ 1.21v₀² = 10,229.75 km

10,229.75 km = (10,229.75 - 6378) km altitude above the Earth's surface

New altitude of orbit = 3851.75 km

Decrease in altitude = 6000 - 3851.75 = 2148 km

b) The period of orbit is related to the radius of orbit through Kepler's Law

T² ∝ R³

T² = kR³

When the period of orbit is T₀, Radius of orbit = R₀ = (6000 + 6378) = 12378 km (Earth's radius = 6378 km)

T₀² = kR₀³

T₀² = k(12378)³

k = (T₀²) ÷ (12378)³

When the period reduces by 10%, T₁ = 0.90T₀ and the new radius of orbit = R₁

T₁² = kR₁³

(0.90T₀)² = kR₁³

0.81T₀² = kR₁³

R₁³ = (0.81T₀²) ÷ k

Recall, k = (T₀²)/(12378)³

R₁³ = (0.81T₀²) ÷ [(T₀²)/(12378)³]

R₁³ = 1,536,160,005,663.1

R₁ = ∛(1,536,160,005,663.1) = 11,538.4 km

New Altitude = R₁ - (Radius of the Earth)

= 11,538.4 - 6378 = 5160.4 km

Decrease in altitude = 6000 - 5160.4 = 839.6 km = 840 km

Hope this Helps!!!

What is the purpose of the lenses in a camera? a. Send light to the eyepiece c. Make the picture color or black and white b. Foc

aliya0001 [1]

The lenses on a camera focus the light entering the camera and provide a clear, sharp image at the location of the film or CCD device. If you took the lenses off a camera designed for use with lenses, you would not be able to create a usable image.
