An electron is released form rest in a region of space where a uniform electric field is present. Joanna claims that its kinetic

and potential energies both increase as it moves from its initial position to its final position. Sonya claims that they both decrease. Which one, if either, is correct?
Joanna, because the electron moves opposite to the direction of the field
Sonya, because the electron moves opposite to the direction of the field.
Joanna, because the electron moves in the direction of the field.
Sonya, because the electron moves in the direction of the field.
Neither, because the kinetic energy increases while the electron moves to a point at a higher potential.

Answer:

Neither.

Explanation:

When an electron is released from rest, in an uniform electric field, it will accelerate moving in a direction opposite to the field (as the field has the direction that it would take a positive test charge, and the electron carries a negative charge).

It will move towards a point  with a higher potential, so its kinetic energy will increase, while its potential energy will decrease:

⇒ ΔK + ΔU = 0 ⇒ ΔK = -ΔU = - (-e*ΔV)

As ΔV>0, we conclude that the electric potential energy decreases while the kinetic energy increases in the same proportion, in order to energy be conserved, in absence of non-conservative forces.

The magnitude of the angular momentum of the two-satellite system is best represented by
zloy xaker [14]

The magnitude of the angular momentum of the two-satellite system is best represented as, L=m₁v₁r₁-m₂v₂r₂.

<h3>What is angular momentum.?</h3>

The rotational analog of linear momentum is angular momentum also known as moment of momentum or rotational momentum.

It is significant in physics because it is a conserved quantity. the total angular momentum of a closed system remains constant. Both the direction and magnitude of angular momentum are conserved.

The magnitude of the angular momentum of the two-satellite system is best represented as;

L=∑mvr

L=m₁v₁r₁-m₂v₂r₂

Hence, the magnitude of the angular momentum of the two-satellite system is best represented as, L=m₁v₁r₁-m₂v₂r₂.

What type of energy is involved when a river moves sediment and erodes its banks?
ziro4ka [17]
<span>First question: The type of energy involved when a river moves sediment and erodes its banks is: option d. Kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy associated with motion. A body (in this case the water) that moves has an energy associated with its motion that is proportional to the speed (exactly to the square of the speed). When the water collides with the banks it is the kinetic energy of the river that erodes it Second question: the answer is the option d. As gravity pulls water down a slope potential energy changes to knietic energy. This is the, water loses altitude and gains velocity. The potential energy. which is proportional to the height, decreases and the kinetic energy, which is proportional to the square of the speed, increases.</span>

1. The property of a conductor by virtue of which it posses the flow of electric current through it is called resistance.

2. The resistance of a conductor depends on the cross sectional area of the conductor and it's resistivity.

3.This id due to the fact that the resistance of a wire is inversely proportional to the square of its diameter.

4.Due to at high temperatures , the alloy donot oxidize. Alloy doesn't melt readily and get deformed.

A 795-loop square armature coil with a side of 10. 5 cm rotates at 70. 0 rev/s in a uniform magnetic field of strength 0. 45 t.
Agata [3.3K]

The rms voltage output of the generator is 1.94 × 10⁻ ⁵ V.

RMS is an acronym for root mean squared. An RMS value is more than just the "amount of AC power that causes the same heating impact as an analogous DC power" or something along those lines.

No. of loop = 795

Diameter of the coil = 10.5 cm

Radius of the coil = 5.25 cm

Magnetic Field, B = 0.45 T

Time, t = 70.0 rev/s

              V_{rms} =\frac{NwAB}{\sqrt{2} }

Where,

              N = No. of loop

              A = Area of the coil

              B = Magnetic Field

              V_{rms} = Voltage rms

Area of the coil = πr²

                        = 86.57 cm²

w = 2π/t

   =( 2 × 3.141)/70.0

   = 0.089

V_{rms} =\frac{795*0.089*86.57* 0.45}{\sqrt{2} }\\\\V_{rms} =\frac{2756.36}{\sqrt{2} }\\\\\\V_{rms} =\frac{2756.36}{1.414 }\\\\V_{rms} = 1.94 * 10^-^5 V

Therefore, the rms voltage output of the generator is 1.94 × 10⁻ ⁵ V.
