Answer:

A) the current in AC electricity varies in magnitude and direction.

C) the voltage in AC electricity varies in magnitude and direction.

Explanation:

In DC current and voltage the direction of current will not change with time and it always remains the same.

So here in DC voltage and DC current the magnitude may change with time but the direction will always remain same

While in AC voltage and AC current the direction of AC will change with time

periodically.

So here magnitude and direction both will change in AC current and AC voltage.

so the correct answer is

A)     the current in AC electricity varies in magnitude and direction.

C) the voltage in AC electricity varies in magnitude and direction.

Answer:

option  <u>A</u>    

Explanation:

AC stands for Alternating current and DC stands for Direct current. The main difference between AC and DC is that current changes direction in AC and not in DC. Actually the direction of flow of electrons reverses periodically. In direct current, the electrons flow in same direction.

Thus, option A is correct.

Find its moment of inertia about an axis perpendicular to its plane and passing through the midpoint of the line connecting its
antoniya [11.8K]

A) Moment of inertia about an axis passing through the point where the two segments meet : $I_A=\frac{1}{12} M L^2$

B) Moment of inertia passing through the point where the midpoint of the line connects to its two ends: $I x=\frac{1}{3} M L^2$

What is Moment of inertia?

The term "moment of inertia" refers to a physical quantity that quantifies a body's resistance to having its speed of rotation along an axis changed by the application of a torque (turning force). The axis might be internal or exterior, fixed or not.

A) The moment of inertia about an axis passing through the point where the two segments meet is $I_A=\frac{1}{12} M L^2$given that the rod is bent at the center and distance from all the points to the axis remains the same, the moment of inertia about the center will remain the same.

B) Determine the moment of inertia about an axis passing through the point midpoint of the line which connects the two ends

First step: determine the distance between the ends ( d )

After applying Pythagoras theorem$\mathrm{d}=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} L$

Next step : determine distance between the two axis $(\mathrm{x})$

After applying Pythagoras theorem

\mathrm{x}=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4} L$$

Final step : Calculate the value of $\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{x}}$

applying Parallel Axis Theorem

$$I_x=I_8+M x^2$$

$$\begin{aligned}& =\frac{1}{12} M L^2+\frac{1}{4} M L^2 \\& \therefore \quad I x=\frac{1}{3} M L^2 \\&\end{aligned}$$

Hence we can conclude that Moment of inertia about an axis passing through the point where the two segments meet: $I_A=\frac{1}{12} M L^2$, Moment of inertia passing through the point where the midpoint of the line connects its two ends: $I x=\frac{1}{3} M L^2$

Calculate the air pressure in the pressurized tank, if h1 = 0. 18 m, h2 = 0. 2m and h3 = 0. 25m. The density of the mercury, wat
fomenos

The air pressure in the pressurized tank will be 24014.88 N/m²,196.2 N/m²,2084.625  N/m².

<h3 /><h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The force applied perpendicular to the surface of an item per unit area across which that force is spread is known as pressure.

It is denoted by P. The pressure relative to the ambient pressure is known as gauge pressure.

Pressure is found as the product of the density,acceleraton due to gravity and the height.

P₁=ρ₁gh₁

P₁=13,600 kg/m³×9.81 (m/s²)×0.18 m

P₁=24014.88 N/m²

P₂=ρ₂gh₂

P₂= 1000 kg/m³×9.81 (m/s²)×00.2 m

P₂=196.2 N/m²

P₃=ρ₃gh₃

P₃=850 kg/m³×9.81 (m/s²)×0.25

P₃=2084.625  N/m²

Hence,the air pressure in the pressurized tank will be 24014.88 N/m²,196.2 N/m²,2084.625  N/m².

A mercury thermometer is used to measure the temperature of boiling water.<br>Why?​
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

It has very high density, so a small bulb of a thermometer can contain much mercury. Mercury remains liquid state over a quite wide range of temperature because it freezes at 39°C and boils at 357°C.

A soccer ball is kicked horizontally off a bridge with a heigh of 36m. The ball travels 25m horizontally before it hits the pave
kow [346]

Answer:

The initial velocity was U=22.14m/s

Explanation:

Step one :

Applying the third equation of motion

v² = u²+ 2as

Where v= Final velocity

U =initial velocity

a= acceleration due to gravity

S= distance or displacement

Step two :

V= 0

a= 9.81m/s²

S=25m

U=?

Step three :

Substituting into the equation we have

0²=U²+2*9.81*25

0=U²+490.5

U²=-490.5

U=√490.5

U=22.14m/s
