Before we dive into how electricity is used around the home it is worth putting household electricity use in perspective.

Household electricity use generally makes up about a third of total electricity consumption in most developed nations. Using data from the European Union we can give an example of how electricity demand is split among different sectors.

A solid 0.4550 kg ball rolls without slipping down a track toward a vertical loop of radius R = 0.6750 m . What minimum translat

Talja [164]

Answer:

u = 3.35 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass , m = 0.455 kg

R = 0.675 m

Height of Loop = 1.021 m

the speed required at the top of loop be v

equating the force vertically

$m g =\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$9.81 =\dfrac{v^2}{0.675}$

v² = 6.622

v = 2.57 m/s

Let the initial speed of ball be u

using conservation of energy

$\dfrac{1}{2}mu^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2 + m g h = \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+ m g (2 R)$

where, $I =\dfrac{2}{5}mr^2$

$\dfrac{1}{2}mu^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}(\dfrac{2}{5}mr^2)(\dfrac{u}{r})^2 + m g h = \dfrac{1}{2}(\dfrac{2}{5}mr^2)(\dfrac{v}{r})^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+ m g (2 R)$

$0.7 u^2 + g H = 0.7 v^2 + g(2R)$

$0.7 u^2 +9.81 \times 1.021= 0.7\times 2.57^2 + 9.81 \times 2\times 0.675)$

0.7 u² = 7.85092

u² = 11.2156

u = 3.35 m/s

the initial speed is 3.35 m/s

two cars are moving at constant speeds in a straight line along a major highway. The first is travelling at 20ms^-1 and the seco

Reika [66]

Answer:

$t=750s$

Explanation:

The two cars are under an uniform linear motion. So, the distance traveled by them is given by:

$\Delta x=vt\\x_f-x_0=vt\\x_f=x_0+vt$

$x_f$ is the same for both cars when the second one catches up with the first. If we take as reference point the initial position of the second car, we have:

$x_0_1=6km\\x_0_2=0$

We have $x_f_1=x_f_2$ . Thus, solving for t:

$x_0_1+v_1t=x_0_2+v_2t\\x_0_1=t(v_2-v_1)\\t=\frac{x_0_1}{v_2-v_1}\\t=\frac{6*10^3m}{28\frac{m}{s}-20\frac{m}{s}}\\t=750s$

What electrons are in “motion”, what do you have?

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

When a positive charged object is placed near a conductor electrons are attracted the the object. ... When electric voltage is applied, an electric field within the metal triggers the movement of the electrons, making them shift from one end to another end of the conductor. Electrons will move toward the positive side. As you know, electrons are always moving. They spin very quickly around the nucleus of an atom. As the electrons zip around, they can move in any direction, as long as they stay in their shell.

Calculate the electric field at one corner of a square 50 cm on a side if the other corners are occupied by 250x10-7C (charges)

SIZIF [17.4K]

The electric field at one corner of a square is 1614217 N/C.

Explanation:

The distance between x and y direction diagonals.

As per the given details the distance between diagonals is calculated as

0.5² + 0.5² = c² => c = 0.707 m

Charge to the right: In x direction

In order to find the electric charge towards x direction

we use e = kq/r² formula

As 'k' is coulomb's constant it's value is 9 x $10^{9}$ N m²/C²

e = (9 x $10^{9}$ )(250 x $10^{-7}$ ) / (0.5)²

e = 9 x $10^{5}$ N/C

Charge diagonal:

e = kq/r²

e = [(9 x $10^{9}$ )(250 x $10^{-7}$ ) / (0.707)²] cos 45

e = 225000√2 N/C

X direction sum = 1218198 N/C.

Similarly as shown in x direction the charge is same for y direction also

Charge below: For y direction

e = kq/r²

e = (9 x $10^{9}$ )(250 x $10^{-7}$ ) / (0.5)²

e = 9 x $10^{5}$ N/C

Charge diagonal:

e = kq/r²

e = [(9 x $10^{9}$ )(250 x $10^{-7}$ ) / (0.5)²] sin 45

e = 159099 N/C

Y direction sum = 1059099 N/C

Resultant electric field strength:

1218198 ² + 1059099² = e²

e = 1614217 N/C [45 degrees below the horizontal]
