1.Why does the water vapour in clouds condense?

1 answer:

4 0

It condenses because the atmosphere above us is much colder than what we feel. We see clouds because clouds aren't entirely water vapor, the water inside of clouds is beginning to change from a gas to a liquid.

An LC circuit consists of a 3.4-µF capacitor and a coil with a self-inductance 0.080 H and no appreciable resistance. At t = 0 t

alexira [117]

Answer

given,

capacitance = C = 3.4-µF

inductance = L = 0.08 H

frequency is expressed as

$f = \dfrac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{LC}}$

time period

$T = \dfrac{1}{f}=2\pi\sqrt{LC}$

after time T/4 current reach maximum

$t = \dfrac{T}{4}$

$t = \dfrac{2\pi\sqrt{LC}}{4}$

$t = \dfrac{2\pi\sqrt{0.08 \times 3.4 \times 10^{-6}}}{4}$

t = 8.2 x 10⁻⁴ s

t = 0.82 ms

b) using law of conservation

$\dfrac{1}{2}CV^2=\dfrac{1}{2}LI^2$

$I^2 = \dfrac{CV^2}{L}$

$I^2 = \dfrac{C}{L}\dfrac{Q^2}{C^2}$

$I =\sqrt{\dfrac{Q^2}{CL}}$

$I =\sqrt{\dfrac{(5.4 \times 10^{-6})^2}{0.08 \times 3.4 \times 10^{-6}}}$

I = 0.010 A

I = 10 mA

Which of the following objects cannot make a shadow? Broken piece of glass from a window/wooden pane of the same window? Explain

Lorico [155]

Answer:

broken pieces of glass from a window can't form a shadow.

Explanation:

the reason is that shadow is formed only when light rays hits an opaque object, which doesn't let light to pass through it, but glass is a transparent object, hence light rays passes through it forming no shadow..

i hope it helped....

Two particles, each of charge Q, are fixed at opposite corners of a square that lies in the plane of the page. A positive test c

amid [387]

Answer:

The magnitude of the net force is √2F.

Explanation:

Since the two particles have the same charge Q, they exert the same force on the test charge; both attractive or repulsive. So, the angle between the two forces is 90° in any case. Now, as we know the magnitude of these forces and that they form a 90° angle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the magnitude of the resultant net force:

$F_N=\sqrt{F^{2}+F^{2}}\\\\F_N=\sqrt{2F^{2}}\\\\F_N=\sqrt{2}F$

Then, it means that the net force acting on the test charge has a magnitude of √2F.

If the temperature of an iron sphere is increased A)its density will decrease .B)its volume will decrease. C)its mass will decre

babymother [125]

Answer:

A) Its density will decrease

Explanation:

When an object is heated, its volume increases. This is due to the fact that the particles in the medium vibrate more (if it is a solid) or they move more (if it is a liquid or a gas), therefore they tend to occupy a larger space.

At the same time, the mass of the object does not change, because the mass just represents the amount of matter contained in the object, so it does not increase/decrease at different temperatures.

The density of an object is defined as the ratio between the mass (m) and the volume (V):

$d=\frac{m}{V}$

We said that the mass remains unchanged while the volume increases: since the density is inversely proportional to the volume, this means that the density decreases.
