Answer: DC flows in one direction, and AC repeatedly switches direction

Explanation:

DC stands for direct current.

AC stands for alternating current.

When current flows only in single direction, it is known as direct current. When current changes direction i.e. it alternates direction, it is known as alternating current.

There are both AC generators and DC generators.

AC generators supply power to home appliances and small motors. DC generators are used to power large electric motors.

Answer:

La presión neumática para levantar un automóvil de 17,640 newtons es 220,500 pascales.

Explanation:

Asumiendo que la presión ( $P$ ), medida en pascales, tiene una distribución uniforme sobre la superficie del pistón, se calcula a partir de la siguiente expresion:

$P = \frac{F}{A}$

Donde:

$F$ - Fuerza motriz, medida en newtons.

$A$ - Área del pistón, medida en metros cuadrados.

La fuerza motriz es equivalente al peso del automóvil. El área del pistón ( $A$ ), medido en metros cuadrados, es determinado por:

$A=\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D^{2}$

Donde $D$ es el diámetro del pistón, medido en metros.

Si $D = 0.32\,m$ y $F =17,640\,N$ , entonces la presión neumática es:

$A = \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot (0.32\,m)^{2}$

$A \approx 0.080\,m^{2}$

$P = \frac{17,640\,N}{0.080\,m^{2}}$

$P = 220,500\,Pa$

La presión neumática para levantar un automóvil de 17,640 newtons es 220,500 pascales.

Estimate how far apart the rays of deepest red and deepest violet light are as they exit the bottom surface. assume nred = 1.57

Harlamova29_29 [7]

We begin by noting that the angle of incidence is the one that's taken with respect to the normal to the surface in question. In this case the angle of incidence is 30. The material is Flint Glass according to the original question. The refractive indez of air n1=1, the refractive index of red in flint glass is nred=1.57, finally for violet in the glass medium is nviolet=1.60. Snell's Law dictates:
$n_1sin(\theta_1)=n_2sin(\theta_2)$
Where $\theta_2$ differs for each wavelenght, that means violet and red will have different refractive indices in the glass.
In the second figure provided details are given on which are the angles in question, $\Delta x$ is the distance between both rays.
$\theta_{2red}=Asin(\frac{sin(30)}{1.57})\approx 18.5705$
$\theta_{2violet}=Asin(\frac{sin(30)}{1.60})\approx 18.21$
At what distance d from the incidence normal will the beams land at the bottom?
For violet we have:
$d_{violet}=h.tan(\theta_{2violet})\approx 0.0132m$
For red we have:
$d_{red}=h.tan(\theta_{2red})\approx 0.0134m$
We finally have:
$\Delta x=d_{red}-d_{violet}\approx2.8\times10^{-4}m$

Two converging lenses are placed 30 cm apart. The focal length of the lens on the right is 20 cm while the focal length of the l

Masja [62]

Answer:

a) I2 = 3 (o-10) / (o- 30) , b) h ’/h= 3 (o-10) / o (o-30)

Explanation:

The builder's equation is

1 / f = 1 / o + 1 / i

Where f is the focal length, or e i are the distance to the object and image, respectively

As the separation between the lenses is greater than the focal distances, we must work them individually and separately. Let's start with the leftmost lens with focal length f = 15 cm

Let's calculate the position of the image of this lens

1 / i1 = 1 / f - 1 / o

1 / i1 = 1/15 - 1 / o

i1 = o 15 / (o-15)

Let's calculate the distance to the image of the second lens, for this the image of the first is the distance to the object of the second

o2 = d-i1

We write the builder equation

1 / f2 = 1 / o2 + 1 / i2

1 / i2 = 1 / f2 -1 / o2

1 / i2 = 1 / f2 - 1 / (d-i1)

1 / i2 = 1/20 - 1 / (d-i1) (1)

Let's evaluate the last term

d-i1 = d - 15 o / (o-15)

d-i1 = (d (o-15) - 15 o) / (o-15)

d- i1 = (30 or -30 15 -15 o) / (o-15)

d-i1 = (15 or - 450) / (o- 15)

d-i1 = = (15 or -450) / (o-15)

replace in 1

1 / i2 = 1/20 - (or - 15) / (15 or -450)

1 / i2 = [(15 o-450) - (o-15) 20] / (15 or -150)

1 / i2 = (15 or - 450 - 20 or + 300) / (15 or - 150)

1 / i2 = (-5 or -150) / (15 or -150)

1 / i2 = (or -30) / (3 or - 30)

I2 = 3 (o-10) / (o- 30)

Part B

The height of the image, we use the magnification equation

m = h ’/ h = - i / o

h ’= - h i / o

In our case

h ’= h i2 / o

h ’= h 3 (o-10) / o (o-30)

If they give the distance to the object it is easier

Where does matter come from?

The Big Bang theory is matter and energy in the universe exploded out from one point. As the explosion occurred, energy and matter spread outward and formed the universe. The matter from the Big Bang formed clouds of gas.

With your hand parallel to the floor and your palm upright, you lower a 3-kg book downward. If the force exerted on the book by

lara31 [8.8K]

According to the net force, the acceleration of the book is 16.47 m/s².

We need to know about force to solve this problem. According to second Newton's Law, the force applied to an object will be proportional to mass and acceleration. Hence, it can be written as

∑F = m . a

where F is force, m is mass and a is acceleration

From the question above, we know that

m = 3 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

F1 = 20 N

Find the net force

∑F = F1 + W

∑F = 20 + m . g

∑F = 20 + 3 . 9.8

∑F = 20 + 29.4

∑F = 49.4 N

Find the acceleration

∑F = m . a

49.4 = 3 . a

a = 16.47 m/s²
