Charge is flowing through a conductor at the rate of 420 C/min. If 742 J. of electrical energy are converted to heat in 30 s., w

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

3.53 V

Explanation:

Electric charge: The is the rate of flow of electric charge along a conductor.

The S.I unit of electric charge is C.

Mathematically it is expressed as,

Q = It ............................ Equation 1

Where Q = electric charge, I = current, t = time.

I = Q/t.......................... Equation 2

From the question, charge flows through the conductor at the rate of 420 C/mim

Which means in 1 min, 420 C of charge flows through the conductor.

Hence,

Q = 420 C, t = 1 min = 60 seconds

Substitute into equation 2

I = 420/60

I =7 A

Also

P = VI......................... Equation 3

Where P = power, V = potential drop, I = current.

V = P/I................... Equation 4

Note: Power = Energy/time

From the question, P = 742/30 = 24.733 W. and I = 7 A.

Substitute these values into equation 4

V = 24.733/7

V = 3.53 V

Hence the potential drop across the conductor = 3.53 V

At what value of angle between two vectors will the resultant of the two vectors be maximum?

yan [13]

The resultant is maximum when the angle between the two vectors is zero

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the resultant of two vectors A, B is the following:

$R=\sqrt{A^2+B^2+2ABcos \theta}$

where

A is the magnitude of vector A

B is the magnitude of vector B

$\theta$ is the angle between the directions of A and B

This formula can be derived by applying the parallelogram law.

From the formula, we observe that:

- When $\theta=0^{\circ}$ (vectors A and B parallel), $cos \theta = 1$ . so the resultant becomes simply

$R=\sqrt{A^2+B^2 + 2AB}=\sqrt{(A+B)^2}=A+B$

- When $\theta = 90^{\circ}$ (vectors A and B perpendicular), $cos \theta = 0$ , so the resultant becomes

$R=\sqrt{A^2+B^2}$

- When $\theta=180^{\circ}$ (vectors A and B anti-parallel), $cos \theta = -1$ , so the resultant becomes

$R=\sqrt{A^2+B^2 - 2AB}=\sqrt{(A-B)^2}=|A-B|$

By looking at the three cases and at the formula, we see that the maximum value of the resultant is when the angle between the two vectors is zero, since in that case the resultant is simply obtained by adding the magnitudes of the two vectors.

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surfac

leva [86]

Answer:

A. 5.600 m

B. 5.800 s

C. 0.966 m/s

D. 0.315 m

Explanation:

A. The wavelength is the distance between 2 crests, which is 5.600 m

B. Period of the wave is the time for the wave to complete 1 circle (highest point to next highest point). Since it takes 2.9s to travel from highest point to lowest point, it would take another 2.9 to travel from lowest point to the next highest point. So the total time is 2.9 + 2.9 = 5.8 s,

C. The wavespeed is wavelength over unit of time:

5.6 / 5.8 = 0.966 m/s

D. The amplitude would be half the length of highest point to lowest point, which is 0.63 / 2 = 0.315 m

What elements are solid liquid and gas at room temperature?

Alona [7]

Elemental hydrogen (H, element 1), nitrogen (N, element 7), oxygen (O, element 8), fluorine (F, element 9), and chlorine (Cl, element 17) are all gases at room temperature, and are found as diatomic molecules.

Titanium, Lead, Potassium, and Silicon are solids at normal temperature.

Mercury and bromine (Br) are the only liquid elements at standard pressure and temperature (Hg).

<h3>What are chemical elements?</h3>

A chemical element is a species of atoms, including the pure substance made entirely of that species, that have a specific number of protons in their nuclei. Chemical elements, in contrast to chemical compounds, cannot be reduced by any chemical process into simpler molecules.

Fission and fusion reactions both involve making changes to an atom's _____.

spayn [35]

Option (A) is correct. Fission and fusion reactions both involve making changes to an atom's nuclei.

Nuclear fission is a process in which a bigger nucleus breaks into two or more smaller nuclei with the liberation of large amount of energy.

Nuclear fusion is a process in which two smaller nuclei fuse together to form a bigger nucleus. A tremendous amount of energy is released during fusion.

Thus both fission and fusion involve the changes in the nuclei of atoms. Rest of the atom like the electronic configuration etc remains same.
