1. A negatively charged rod is moved near the top of a positively charged electroscope. What

A car with four passengers will have a shorter braking distance than a car with one braking distance. True or false. Why?

Valentin [98]

<u>Answer:</u>

The given statement is a True statement

<u>Explanation:</u>

All cars and trucks have load capacities marked on the jamb of the driver's door, as well as the owner's manual. This is very significant for braking distance.

A heavier object will require much more braking force and distance to stop, due to New ton's law of motion. “ An object in motion will tend to stay in motion “ .A heavy object will remain in motion longer and require much more force to stop. Four wheel disc brakes are great compared to front disc and rear drum configuration, in dissipating heat, and stopping more efficiently.

Problem: The frequency of an FM radio station is 89.3 MHz. Calculate its period. Part B: From the Library, select the general eq

vekshin1

Answer:

Time period, $T=1.11\times 10^{-8}\ s$

Explanation:

We have,

The frequency of an FM radio station is 89.3 MHz.

It is required to find the period of the wave.

The reciprocal of frequency is called time period of a wave. It can be given by :

$T=\dfrac{1}{f}\\\\T=\dfrac{1}{89.3\times 10^{6}\ Hz}\\\\T=1.11\times 10^{-8}\ s$

So, the period of the wave is $1.11\times 10^{-8}\ s$ .

Through what potential difference should electrons be accelerated so that their speed is 1.0 % of the speed of light when they h

omeli [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Considering non - relativistic approach : ----

Speed of electron = 1 % of speed of light

= .01 x 3 x 10⁸ m /s

= 3 x 10⁶ m /s

Kinetic energy of electron = 1/2 m v²

= .5 x 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ x ( 3 x 10⁶ )²

= 40.95 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Kinetic energy in electron comes from lose of electrical energy equal to

Ve where V is potential difference under which electron is accelerated and e is electronic charge .

V x e = kinetic energy of electron

V x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ = 40.95 x 10⁻¹⁹

V = 25.6 Volt .

A thin uniform rod (length = 1.2 m, mass = 2.0 kg) is pivoted about a horizontal, frictionless pin through one end of the rod. (

Anika [276]

Answer:

$a=9.8 rad/s^{2}$

Explanation:

Torque, $\tau$ is given by

$\tau=Fr$ where F is force and r is perpendicular distance

$R=0.5Lcos\theta$ where $\theta$ is the angle of inclination

Torque, $\tau$ can also be found by

$\tau=Ia$ where I is moment of inertia and a is angular acceleration

Therefore, Fr=Ia and F=mg where m is mass and g is acceleration due to gravity

Making a the subject, $a=\frac {Fr}{I}=\frac {mgr}{I}$ and already I is given as

$I=\frac {mL^{2}}{3} and r is 0.5Lcos\theta$ hence

$a=\frac {0.5mgLcos\theta}{1/3 mL^{2}}$

$a=\frac {3gcos\theta}{2L}$

Taking g as 9.81, $\theta$ is given as 37 and L is 1.2

$a=\frac {3*9.81cos37}{2*1.2}=9.7932679419$

$a=9.8 rad/s^{2}$

what happens to the current in a circuit if the resitance of the components in the circuit is increased

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The current decreases.

Explanation:

Current and resistance are inversely proportional. The equation connecting current, resistance and voltage is $V = IR$ , where V is voltage, I is current and R is resistance.

Rearranging this equation, you get:

$I = \frac{V}{R}$

and

$R = \frac{V}{I}$

If the value of voltage in both equations remains constant, and the value of R decreases, the value of I will increase. Conversely, if in the second equation $R = \frac{V}{I}$ , the value of V remains constant the value of I decreases, then the value of R, resistance will increase.

Thus, it can be seen that the current will decrease as resistance increases and vice versa.
