What is the purpose of using a generator​

Physics
1 answer:
Vedmedyk [2.9K]2 years ago
6 0

The purpose of an electrical generator is to convert kinetic energy into electrical energy.

A generator is exactly the thing to use if you need more electrical energy than you have, but at the same time, you have access to something with more kinetic energy than you need.

When the pendulum bob reaches the mean position, the net force acting on it is zero. Why then does it swing past the mean positi
ryzh [129]

Answer:

<u>The pendulum bob swing past the mean position because:</u>

When a pendulum's bob is accelerating at its extreme position its velocity is zero. Due to  the restoring toque the bob starts to accelerates towards its mean postion. The  maximum acceleration of the pendulum's bob  is -w^{2} Aand the the acceleration decreases as -w^{2} x  towards the mean position.

The acceleration at the mean position becomes zero but the velocity remains maximum. Hence the bob continues to move and does not stops.Thus it can summarised as the force decreases ,acceleration decreases and velocity increases at slow rate.

A coaxial cable consists of a solid inner cylindrical conductor of radius 2 mm and an outer cylindrical shell of inner radius 3
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

d) 1.2 mT

Explanation:

Here we want to find the magnitude of the magnetic field at a distance of 2.5 mm from the axis of the coaxial cable.

First of all, we observe that:

- The internal cylindrical conductor of radius 2 mm can be treated as a conductive wire placed at the axis of the cable, since here we are analyzing the field outside the radius of the conductor. The current flowing in this conductor is

I = 15 A

- The external conductor, of radius between 3 mm and 3.5 mm, does not contribute to the field at r = 2.5 mm, since 2.5 mm is situated before the inner shell of the conductor (at 3 mm).

Therefore, the net magnetic field is just given by the internal conductor. The magnetic field produced by a wire is given by

B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}

where

\mu_0 is the vacuum permeability

I = 15 A is the current in the conductor

r = 2.5 mm = 0.0025 m is the distance from the axis at which we want to calculate the field

Substituting, we find:

B=\frac{(4\pi\cdot 10^{-7})(15)}{2\pi(0.0025)}=1.2\cdot 10^{-3}T = 1.2 mT

A block–spring system vibrating on a frictionless, horizontal surface with an amplitude of 7.0 cm has an energy of 14 J. If the
Bingel [31]

Answer:

E_T= 28J

Explanation:

The energy of Mass-Spring System the sum of the potential energy of the block plus the kinetic energy of the block:

E_T=U+K=\frac{1}{2} k \Delta x^2+\frac{1}{2} mv^2

Where:

\Delta x=Amplitude\hspace{3}or\hspace{3}d eformation\hspace{3} of\hspace{3} the\hspace{3} spring\\m=Mass\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}block\\k=Constant\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}spring\\v=Velocity\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}block

There are two cases, the first case is when the spring is compressed to its maximum value, in this case the value of the kinetic energy is zero, since there is no speed, so:

E_T=\frac{1}{2} k \Delta x^2\\\\14=\frac{1}{2} k7^2\\\\Solving\hspace{3} for\hspace{3} k\\\\k=\frac{28}{49} =\frac{4}{7}

The second case is when the block passes through its equilibrium position, in this case the elastic potential energy is zero since \Delta x=0, so:

E_T=\frac{1}{2} mv^2\\\\14=\frac{1}{2} mv^2\\\\Solving\hspace{3} for\hspace{3} v\\\\v^2=\frac{28}{m}

Now, let's find the energy of the system when the block is replaced by one whose mass is twice the mass of the original block using the previous data:

E_T=U+K=\frac{1}{2} k \Delta x^2+\frac{1}{2} m_2v^2

Where in this case:

m_2=New\hspace{3}mass=Twice\hspace{3} the\hspace{3} mass \hspace{3}of\hspace{3} the\hspace{3} original=2m

Therefore:

E_T=\frac{1}{2} (\frac{4}{7} ) (7^2)+\frac{1}{2} (2m)(\frac{28}{m_2})=\frac{1}{2} (\frac{4}{7} ) (7^2)+\frac{1}{2} (2m)(\frac{28}{2m})=14+14=28J
