Answer:

The role of a commutator in a electric generator is a rotary switch (in certain types of electrical generators that periodically reverse the current direction between the rotor and the external circuit by that reversing it in the current direction teb rotating windings all half turn a force called torque is produced)

Answer:

hmm

Explanation:

By increasing the number of turns in the coil, strength of magnetic field, speed of rotation of the coil in the magnetic field and by decreasing the distance between the coil and the magnet the magnitude of the induced e.m.f. can be increased in generator/dynamo.

1. The Moon's mass is 7.34 x 1022 kg, and it is 3.8 x 105 km away from Earth. Earth's

sineoko [7]

Answer:

2.03 x 10²⁴N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of moon = 7.34 x 10²²kg

Mass of the earth = 5.97 x 10²⁴kg

Distance = 3.8 x 10⁵km

Unknown:

Gravitational force of attraction = ?

Solution:

To find the gravitational force of attraction between the masses, we use the expression below;

F = $\frac{Gm_{1} m_{2} }{r^{2} }$

G is the universal gravitation constant

m is the mass

1 and 2 represents moon and earth

r is the distance

F = $\frac{6.67 x 10^{-11} x 7.34 x 10^{22} x 5.97 x 10^{24} }{(3.8 x 10^{5})^{2} }$

F = $\frac{2.92 x 10^{35} }{1.44 x 10^{11} }$ = 2.03 x 10²⁴N

A charge of 1.5 µC is placed on the plates of a parallel plate capacitor. The change in voltage across the plates is 36 V. How m

belka [17]

Answer:

Energy stored in the capacitor is $U=2.7\times 10^{-5}\ J$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge, $q=1.5\ \mu C=1.5\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Potential difference, V = 36 V

We need to find the potential energy is stored in the capacitor. The stored potential energy is given by :

$U=\dfrac{1}{2}q\times V$

$U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.5\times 10^{-6}\times 36$

U = 0.000027 J

$U=2.7\times 10^{-5}\ J$

So, the potential energy is stored in the capacitor is $U=2.7\times 10^{-5}\ J$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

A 850-kg sports car accelerates from rest to 95 km/h in 6.8 s .

swat32

From the calculations, the power expended is 43650 W.

<h3>What is the power expended?</h3>

Now we can find the acceleration from;

v = u + at

u = 0 m/s

v = 95 km/h or 26.4 m/s

t = 6.8 s

a = ?

Now

v = at

a = v/t

a = 26.4 m/s/ 6.8 s

a = 3.88 m/s^2

Force = ma = 850-kg * 3.88 m/s^2 = 3298 N

The distance covered is obtained from;

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

v^2 = 2as

s = v^2/2a

s = (26.4)^2/2 * 3.88

s = 696.96/7.76

s = 90 m

Now;

Work = Fs

Work = 3298 N * 90 m = 296820 J

Power = 296820 J/ 6.8 s

= 43650 W
