Answer:

A. A magnet is rotated through a coil of wire to produce an electric current.

Explanation:

An electric generator works on the principle of Faraday's law of induction. As the magnetic flux linked with the coil changes, an emf is induced in the coil and current is produced.

An electric generator converts mechanical energy to electrical energy.

Thus, the correct statement that describes the an electric generator is: A. A magnet is rotated through a coil of wire to produce an electric current.

Problem 1 Observer A, who is at rest in the laboratory, is studying a particle that is moving through the laboratory at a speed

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

markers are 29.76 m far apart in the laboratory

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

speed of particle = 0.624c

lifetime = 159 ns = 1.59 × 10⁻⁷ s

we know that; c is speed of light which is equal to 3 × 10⁸ m/s

we know that

distance = vt

or s = ut

so we substitute

distance = 0.624c × 1.59 × 10⁻⁷ s

distance = 0.624(3 × 10⁸ m/s) × 1.59 × 10⁻⁷ s

distance = 1.872 × 10⁸ m/s × 1.59 × 10⁻⁷ s

distance = 29.76 m

Therefore, markers are 29.76 m far apart in the laboratory

A stone sphere of radius 7.00 m rests in a flat field. Relative to the ground, what is the gravitational potential energy of a 9

Molodets [167]

Answer:

(B) 1.23 x 10⁴ J

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the sphere, r = 7.0 m

diameter of the sphere, d = 2r = 14.0 m

mass of the person sitting on the sphere, m = 90.0 kg

The gravitational potential energy of the person is given by;

P.E = mgh

where;

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h is the height above the ground level = d = 14.0 m

P.E = mgh

P.E = (90)(9.8)(14)

P.E = 12348 J

P.E = 1.2348 x 10⁴ J

Therefore, the gravitational potential energy of the person is 1.2348 x 10⁴ J

How is the acceleration of a car traveling on an elevated air track related to the angle of elevation and the height of elevatio

vitfil [10]

on a given inclined we know that net force is given by

$F_{net} = - mgsin\theta$

here we know that

$F_{net} = ma$

so here we have

$ma = - mg sin\theta$

$a = - gsin\theta$

so here acceleration depends directly on angle of inclination

now we also know that if height of the inclined is H and its length is L

then we can write

$sin\theta = \frac{H}{L}$

so the acceleration is given as

$a = - g*\frac{H}{L}$

so acceleration also depends directly on height of the inclined plane

if a car engine does 600,000 J of work over a 500m distance and the mass of the car is 250Kg then what is the final velocity of

drek231 [11]

Given that

Work = 600,000 J ,

distance(S) = 500 m ,

mass (m) = 250 Kg ,

Determine the velocity of car (v) = ?

We know that,

Work = Force × distance

=> Force = Work ÷ distance

= 600,000 ÷ 500

= 500 N .

Also Force F = m.a ; from Newtons II law

500 = 250 × a

a = 2 m/s.

<em>Final Velocity from the given formula </em>

V² = u² + 2.a.s

= 0 + 2 × 2 × 500

= \sqrt{2000}
