Answer:

A. a motor

Explanation:

A motor is an electrical device or machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. That is, a motor takes electrical energy to produce motion. There are different types of motors such as DC motor, induction motor and so on.

When electrical current flows through a coil, a magnetic flux is been produced, therefore when a rotating power source is supplied to coil of a motor, a magnetic field is produced which causes torque.

If I have a picosecond laser how would that be expressed in terms of zeptoseconds? In terms of petaseconds?

kolbaska11 [484]

Picosecond = 10 ^ -12 seconds.
Zeptosecond = 10^ -18 seconsds
Petaseonds = 10^15 seconds

To express Picoseconds into any of other two, you have to divide 10^-12 by the power index of the one in question

1Picosecond : 10^-12 / 10^-18 = 10^ (-12- 18) = 10^ (-12+18)= 10^6 zeptoseconds

1Picosecond : 10^-12 / 10^15 = 10^ (-12-15) = 10^-27 Petaseconds.

1Picosecond = 10^6 zeptoseconds

1Picosecond = 10^-27 Petaseconds

The acceleration due to gravity on the moon is about 1/6 of the acceleration due to gravity on the earth. A net force F acts hor

uysha [10]

Answer:

c. $a_m$

Explanation:

We are given that

Acceleration due to gravity on the moon= $a_m$

Acceleration due to gravity on the earth= $a_e$

$g_m=\frac{1}{6}g_e$

Net force due to am on an object on moon= $F_{net}=ma_m$

There is no friction and no drag force and there is no gravity involved

Then, the force acting on an object on earth= $F=ma_e$

$F=F_{net}$ (given)

$ma_m=ma_e$

$a_e=a_m$

Hence, option c is true.

If the timber weighs 670 N, calculate its angle of inclination when the water surface is 2.1 m above the pivot. Above what depth

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Q = 40.1 degrees

Explanation:

Given:

- The weight of the timber W = 670 N

- Water surface level from pivot y = 2.1 m

- The specific density of water Y = 9810 N / m^3

- Dimension of timber = (0.15 x 0.15 x 0.0036) m

Find:

- The angle of inclination Q that the timber makes with the horizontal.

Solution:

- Calculate the Flamboyant Force F_b acting upwards at a distance x along the timber, which is unknown:

F_b = Y * V_timber

F_b = 9810*0.15*0.15*x

F_b = 226.7*x N

- Take static equilibrium conditions for the timber, and take moments about the pivot:

(M)_p = 0

W*0.5*3.6*cos(Q) - x/2 * F_b*cos(Q) = 0

- Plug values in:

670*0.5*3.6 - x^2 * 0.5*226.7 = 0

x^2 = 1206 / 113.35

x = 3.26 m

- Now use the value of x and vertical height y to compute the angle of inclination to be:

sin(Q) = y / x

sin(Q) = 2.1 / 3.26

Q = sin^-1 (0.6441718)

Q = 40.1 degrees

Toy car in a science experiment covers 1.6 meters in half a second. If a the car travels at a steady speed, how far will it go i

Tanzania [10]

The answer is D. 32 m.

The simple equation that connects speed (v), time (t), and distance (d) can be expressed as:
$v= \frac{d}{t}$ ⇒ $d=v*t$

It is given:
$v = \frac{1.6m}{0.5s} = \frac{1.6m*2}{0.5s*2}= \frac{3.2m}{1s} = 3.2 m/s$
t = 10 s
d = ?

So:
$d= v*t=3.2m/s*10s = 32m$
