Answer:
Mechanical energy is the energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion or due to its position. Mechanical energy can be either kinetic energy (energy of motion) or potential energy
Answer:
Neither.
Explanation:
When an electron is released from rest, in an uniform electric field, it will accelerate moving in a direction opposite to the field (as the field has the direction that it would take a positive test charge, and the electron carries a negative charge).
It will move towards a point with a higher potential, so its kinetic energy will increase, while its potential energy will decrease:
⇒ ΔK + ΔU = 0 ⇒ ΔK = -ΔU = - (-e*ΔV)
As ΔV>0, we conclude that the electric potential energy decreases while the kinetic energy increases in the same proportion, in order to energy be conserved, in absence of non-conservative forces.
Answer:
Intensity, 
Explanation:
Power of the light bulb, P = 40 W
Distance from screen, r = 1.7 m
Let I is the intensity of light incident on the screen. The power acting per unit area is called the intensity of the light. Its formula is given by :
So, the intensity of light is 
.
Answer:
Velocity = 0.309 m/s
Along negative x axis
Explanation:
A pulse moving to the right along the x axis is represented by the wave function
y(x,t) = 2/ (x - 3t)² + 1
At t =0
y(x,0) = 2/ ((x - 3(0))² + 1)
=2 / (x² + 1)
At t = 1
y(x,t) = 2/ ((x - 3(1))² + 1)
= 2 /(( x - 3)² + 1)
At t = 2
y(x,t) = 2/ ((x - 3(2))² + 1)
= 2 /(( x - 6)² + 1)
For the pulse with expression y(x,t) = 4.5
²
The Velocity is
V = 2.7 / 8.73
= 0.309 m/s
Explanation:
a) I = V / R
1.70 = 115 / R
R = 115 / 1.70
R = 67.647
R = 67.65 ohms
Therefore, equivalent resistance is 67.65 ohms
b) Equivalent resistance of circuit from above sum is 67.65 ohms
Given resistance of each bulb is 1.50 ohms
Number bulbs = Equivalent resistance / Resistance of each bulb
= 67.65 / 1.50
= 45
