A lightning flash may transfer up to 14 C of charge through a potential difference of 107 V

Answer:

Energy involved = 1498 J

Time taken by this energy to light a 100 W bulb = 0·25 min

Explanation:

Charge that is transferred = 14 C

Potential difference = 107 V

Formula for power in terms of potential difference (V) and current (I) = V × I

<h3>And power is also equal to (work done) ÷ (time taken)</h3>

Current (I) = (charge transferred) ÷ (time taken)

<h3>Formula for energy = V × Q</h3><h3>where V is the potential difference</h3><h3>Q is the charge transferred</h3>

∴ Energy involved = 107 × 14 = 1498 J

Given power of the bulb = 100 W

Energy ÷ (time taken) = 100

1498 ÷ (time taken) = 100

∴ Time taken = 14·98 s = 14·98 ÷ 60 min = 0·25 min

Airida [17]

Answer:

D) The heavier ball will have a higher temperature because the change of temperature is inversely proportional to mass.

Explanation:

As stated in the problem, the amount of heat released by each ball is

Q=mC_p \Delta T

where

m is the mass of the ball

Cp is the specific heat of iron (so, it is equal for both balls)

\Delta T is the change in temperature of each ball

In this problem, we are said that the amount of heat released by the two balls, Q, is the same. Cp is also the same: this means that the product m\Delta T must be the same for the two balls. So, the mass and the change in temperature are inversely proportional: therefore, the heavier ball will have a smaller change in temperature. And since both balls starts from the same temperature, 100 C, this means that the heavier ball will reach a higher temperature than the lighter ball.

Given a 45 45 90 prism with index of 1.5, immersed in air. The hypotenuse acts as the reflecting face by TIR. A ray of light ent
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

83.6°

Explanation:

For the ray to be totally internally reflected, at the boundary, the angle of refraction is 90. Using the law of refraction where

n₁sinθ₁ = n₂sinθ₂ where n₁ = refractive index of prism = 1.5, θ₁ = critical angle in prism, n₂ = refractive index of air = 1 and θ₂ = refractive angle = 90°.

So, substituting these values into the equation,

n₁sinθ₁ = n₂sinθ₂

1.5 × sinθ₁ = 1 × sin90

1.5 × sinθ₁  = 1

sinθ₁ = 1/1.5

sinθ₁ = 0.6667

θ₁  = sin*(0.6667)

θ₁  = 41.8°

So, for total internal reflection, an incidence angle of 41.8° is required. So, a full convergence angle of 2 × 41.8° = 83.6° is required for the whole bundle of rays.

(11) The speed of radio waves is 300 000 000 m/s.
Neko [114]

Answer:

Wavelength = 9.68 meters

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Speed = 300,000,000m/s

Frequency = 31 Megahertz to Hertz = 31 * 10⁶ Hz

To find the wavelength;

Wavelength = speed/frequency

Wavelength = 300,000,000/31,000,000

Wavelength = 9.68 meters

A body is oscillating up and down at the end of a spring. Let’s consider when the body is at the top of its up-and-down motion.
Klio2033 [76]

The velocity of the body is zero; option A

<h3>What is the motion of an oscillating body?</h3>

The motion of an oscillating body is known as simple harmonic motion.

Simple harmonic motion involves a periodical motion of a body whose acceleration is directed towards a fixed point.

For a body that is oscillating up and down at the end of a spring, considering when the body is at the top of its up-and-down motion, the velocity of the body at the top and down is zero since the body comes to rest at the top and down position of its motion.

In conclusion, oscillating bodies undergo simple harmonic motion.

A constant force is applied to an object, causing the object to accelerate at 10 m/s^2. What will the acceleration be if: a) The
Liula [17]
What you need to know is that the force is

F=ma

The force is the product of mass and acceleration

this means that the acceleration is

a=F/m

a) The force is halved?
this means that f will be \frac{F}{2} now:

a=\frac{F}{2m}

So the accelaration will also he halved (it's the original acceleratation divided by 2)


 b) The object's mass is halved?
a=\frac{F}{m/2}=a=\frac{F2}{m}

which is the original acceleration times two!! so it will double


c) The force and the object's mass are both halved?
now we have

a=\frac{F/2}{m/2}=a=\frac{2F}{2m}=a=\frac{F}{m}

so they will cancel each other out and the acceleration will stay the same!
