Option (D) is correct. All of the above options are correct.

Further Explanation:

If two electrodes are inserted inside a vacuum tube under the proper physical condition then the complete system can behave as a rectifier which can be used to convert the alternating current into the direct current.

One can also insert a controller grid inside the vacuum tube which can easily control the strength of the signal passed through it and also help in increasing the strength of the signal

Whereas on the other hand a vacuum tube considered as a bad conductor and therefore, it the current passed through a vacuum area, then the current flow in the region will be hindered and therefore, the vacuum tube can be used as a switch to turn on and off the current.

Therefore, the above explanations suggest that all of the options are correct.

Thus, Option (D) is correct. All of the above options are correct.

The correct answer of this question is :  A) Change alternating current into direct current.

EXPLANATION :

As per the question, we are given vacuum tube. Vacuum tube can be of various types. Normally it contains two electrodes called cathode and anode which are enclosed in an evacuated glass chamber . There are also other types of vacuum tubes which contain extra electrodes like control grid .

The vacuum tube can be used as a rectifier. It means that it can be used as an electronic device which will convert alternating current into direct current. It may be a half wave rectifier or a full wave rectifier. Actually the direct current obtained during the rectification of alternating current is pulsating in nature.

Hence, the correct answer is that a vacuum tube can be used to change alternating current into direct current.

With only a floor plan to reference, the designer would know what about a window.?
Studentka2010 [4]
They would only know the width of the window. A floor plan is like a top down view of a building. Imagine that you cut your house in half horizontally, and then looked down at it. All you would see would be the width of the windows, not the height or anything else.

Determine a formula for the acceleration of the system in terms of mA, mB, θ, and g. Ignore the mass of the cord and pulley. Exp
jekas [21]

Answer:

a=\frac{mBg-mAgSin\theta}{mA+mB}

Explanation:

Given two mass on an incline code mA and mB and an angle of inclination \theta. g. Assume that mA is the weight being pulled up and mB the hanging weight.

-The equations of motion from Newton's Second Law are:

mBg-T=mBa where a is the acceleration.

#Substituting for T (tension) gives:

mBg-mAsin\theta-mAa=mBa

#and solving for a:

a=\frac{mBg-mAgSin\theta}{mA+mB} which is the system's acceleration.

Suppose a uniform electric field of 4 N/C is in the positive x direction. When a charge is placed at and fixed to the origin, th
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

E_total = 3 N / A

Explanation:

The electric field is a vector magnitude so when adding we must use vectors, in this case as the initial field E = 4N / c goes towards the axis axis and the field created by the fixed charge (E1) is also on the axis x we can add in scalar form.

               E_total = E + E₁

the expression for the field of a point charge is

                E₁ = k q₁ / r²

for the point x = 2m, they do not say that the total field is zero, so the charge q1 must be negative

                 E_total = E -k q₁ / r₂

we substitute

                   0 = E - k q₁ / r²

                   q₁ = \frac{E r^2}{k}

let's calculate

                   q₁ = \frac{4 \ 2^2}{9 \ 10^{-9}}

                   q₁ = 1.78 10⁻⁹ C

now we can calculate the field for position x = 4 m

                   E_total = 4 - 9 10⁹  1.78 10⁻⁹ / 4²2

                   E_total = 3 N / A

Wats another word for DNA?
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Explanation: Other Names for DNA

The threads of double helix DNA are called chromosomes, so you'll often see the two terms used interchangeably. These are also referred to as genes, genetic material or genetic code. DNA is also sometimes called nucleic acid, short for deoxyribonucleic acid.
