What does the measurement 6.5 V represent?

Physics

WITCHER [35]3 years ago

I'm not sure.
Where did you see it ?

If you saw it on a voltmeter, then it stands for "6.5 volts".
It tells you that the 'potential difference' or 'electromotive force'
between the two points connected to the meter is 6.5 volts.

-- If a 1-ohm resistor were connected between those two points,
then 6.5 coulombs of charge would move through the resistor every
second.  We would say that the "current" through the resistor is
6.5 Amperes, or "six'na half amps".

-- Each coulomb of charge (6.25 x 10¹⁸ electrons) that moves from
one of those points to the other one either gains or loses 6.5 joules
of energy, depending on which direction it moves.

-- So the resistor would need to shed heat somehow, at the rate of
6.5 watts (6.5 joules per second).  If it couldn't do that, then it would
go through an interesting series of changes.  It would get warm, then
get hot, then glow cherry red, then glow bright red, then glow orange,
then glow bright yellow, then make a sound like a "POP".  Then it would
break in the middle, and a little wisp of smoke would come out of it.
The two halves of the resistor would sink, sag from their wires, and
the current between the two points would stop. 

We would say that the resistor had "fused", "failed", "melted", "burned out",
or "bought the farm" ... all because it couldn't get rid of heat fast enough.

The radioactive element radium (Ra) decays by a process known asalpha decay,in which the nucleus emits a helium nucleus. (Factoi
tamaranim1 [39]

<u>Answer:</u> The energy released in the decay process is 4.6800\times 10^{11}J

<u>Explanation:</u>

The equation for the alpha decay of Ra-226 follows:

_{88}^{226}\textrm{Ra}\rightarrow _{2}^{4}\textrm{He}+_{86}^{222}\textrm{Rn}

To calculate the mass defect, we use the equation:

Mass defect = Sum of mass of product - Sum of mass of reactant

\Delta m=(m_{Rn}+m_{He})-(m_{Ra})

We know that:

m_{Rn}=222.0176u\\m_{Ra}=226.0254u\\m_{He}=4.0026u

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta m=(222.0176+4.0026)-(226.0254)=-0.0052g=-5.2\times 10^{-6}kg

(Conversion factor: 1 kg = 1000 g )

To calculate the energy released, we use Einstein equation, which is:

E=\Delta mc^2

E=(-5.2\times 10^{-6}kg)\times (3\times 10^8m/s)^2

E=-4.6800\times 10^{11}J

Hence, the energy released in the decay process is 4.6800\times 10^{11}J

As the distance between 2 objects increases, what happens to gravitational force?
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

the force decreases

Explanation:

Gravitational force is depending on it's mass and the distance between two object

The attachment shows us to understand relationship of it's

F ∝ 1/ (r)2

there for gravitational force is inversely proportional to it's distance . when distance between two object is increased, Then force will be decreased

body starting from rest and moving with an uniform acceleration of 3 m/s²..What is its velocity after 15s?​
Luba_88 [7]
<h2>Answer :</h2>

□ The Final velocity of body = 45 m/s\sf{ }

<h2>Given :</h2>

Initial velocity of body = 0 m/s

Acceleration of body = 3 m/s²

Time taken by body = 15 sec

<h2>To Calculate :</h2>

Final velocity of body = ?

<h2>How To Calculate ?</h2>

<h3>❒ </h3>

Here in this question we are provided that a body is in rest so it's initial velocity will be 0 m/s (because from rest), Acceleration of body is 3 m/s², and Time taken is also given which is 15 sec.

<h3>❒</h3>

 To calculate the Final velocity of body we'll use the first equation of motion which says v = u + at

Where,

  • v is the Final velocity in m/s.

  • u is the Initial velocity in m/s.

  • a is the Acceleration in m/s².

  • t is the Time taken in second.

<h2>Calculation :</h2>

From first equation of motion

  • ⇒ v = u + at

  • ⇒ v = 0 + 3 × 15

  • ⇒ v = 0 + 45

  • ⇒ v = 45

Hence, the Final velocity of body is 45 m/s.

Cognitive,emotional, and physical reasons why adolescents engage in riskier behavior
taurus [48]
Cognitive:
This is because teens tend to excrete more hormones when they are in their adolescent ages causing them to act in a riskier behavior.
Emotions:
Because of their feeling that they want to have freedom.
Physical:
Their hormones are affecting their actions.
