Answer: The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

Electrical energy is an energy possessed by the electrical charges in motion.

Heat energy is an energy due to the motion of particles like atoms, ions etc in solid , liquid and gases .

In an electric kettle:

Electric energy → Heat energy   (Law of conservation Energy)

In an electric kettle electric energy is changing into heat energy which results in heating up of water present in side it.The electric energy from the power source is transforming into heat energy which gets transferred to water molecules.

Hence, the correct answer is option C.

A bike rider approaches a hill with a speed of 8.5 m/s. The total mass of the bike rider is 91kg. What is the kinetic energy of
Anestetic [448]

a) The kinetic energy (KE) of an object is expressed as the product of half of the mass (m) of the object and the square of its velocity (v²):

KE = \frac{1}{2}m* v^{2}

It is given:

v = 8.5 m/s

m = 91 kg

So:

KE= \frac{1}{2}*91*8.5^{2} =3,287.4J


b) We can calculate height by using the formula for potential energy (PE):
PE = m*g*h

In this case, h is eight, and PE is the same as KE:
PE = KE = 3,287.4 J

m = 91 kg

g = 9.81 m/s² - gravitational acceleration

h = ? - height


Now, let's replace those:

3,287.4= 91 * 9.81 * h

⇒ h = 3,287.4/(91*9.81) = 3,287.4/892.7 = 3.7 m

Three capacitors having capacitances of 8.40, 8.40, and 4.20 μFμF, respectively, are connected in series across a 36.0-V potenti
son4ous [18]

Answer:

a)Q=71.4 μ C

b)ΔV' = 10.2 V

Explanation:

Given that

C ₁= 8.7 μF

C₂ = 8.2 μF

C₃ = 4.1 μF

The potential difference of the battery, ΔV= 34 V

When connected in series

1/C = 1/C ₁ + 1/C₂ + 1/C₃

1/ C= 1/8.4 +1 / 8.4 + 1/4.2

C=2.1 μF

As we know that when capacitor are connected in series then they have same charge,Q

Q= C ΔV

Q= 2.1 x 34 μ C

Q=71.4 μ C

b)

As we know that when capacitor are connected in parallel then they have same voltage difference.

Q'= C' ΔV'

C'= C ₁+C₂+C₃        (For parallel connection)

C'= 8.4 + 8.4 + 4.2 μF

C'=21 μF

Q'= C' ΔV'

Q'=3 Q

3 x 71.4= 21 ΔV'

ΔV' = 10.2 V

A particular form of electromagnetic radiation has a frequency of 5.42x10^15 Hz. What is the wavelength is nanometers? meters?
zubka84 [21]
Electromagnetic radiation are represented in waves. Each type of wave has a certain shape and length. The distance between two peaks in a wave is called the wavelength. This value is equal to the speed of light divided by the frequency.
Wavelength = c/f
Wavelength = 3x10^8 / <span>5.42x10^15
</span><span>Wavelength = 5.54 x 10^-8 m = 55.35 nm</span>

Does the KE of a car change more when it accelerates from 22 km/h to 32 km/h or when it accelerates from 32 km/h to 42 km/h
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

The change in kinetic energy (KE) of the car is more in the second case.

Explanation:

Let the mass of the car = m

initial velocity of the first case, u = 22 km/h = 6.11 m/s

final velocity of the first case, v = 32 km/h = 8.89 m/s

change in kinetic energy (K.E) = ¹/₂m(v² - u²)

                                          ΔK.E = ¹/₂m(8.89² - 6.11²)

                                                    = 20.85m J

 

initial velocity of the second case, u = 32 km/h = 8.89 m/s

final velocity of the second case, v = 42 km/h = 11.67 m/s

change in kinetic energy (K.E) = ¹/₂m(v² - u²)

                                          ΔK.E = ¹/₂m(11.67² - 8.89²)

                                                    = 28.58m J

The change in kinetic energy (KE) of the car is more in the second case.
