Rami uses a disposable camera that has a flash. When he wants to take a picture, he holds a button and hears a rising whining so

und. When a small light glows, the flash is ready. He presses the shutter button, the flash lights up, and he takes his picture.
Which statement best describes how a capacitor is useful in the camera?

It protects the circuits from a burst of energy by storing charge.
It protects the circuits from a steady current by storing charge.
It stores energy and delivers it in a short burst.
It stores energy and delivers it in a steady current.

<span>It stores energy and delivers it in a short burst.

The whirring sound is produced by the charging of the capacitor. A capacitor is an electrical component which is capable of storing charge. When the capacitor stores charge, it is storing energy. After doing so, the capacitor releases the electrical energy that it had stored as light energy, which is seen as the flash of the camera. It must do so in a burst, because the intensity of the flash is very high and would require a high amount of energy to maintain.

ICE Princess25 [194]
If the 5,500 J of sound and light is the ONLY useful output
from the phone, then the phone's efficiency is

                   (5,500J / 10,000J)  =  0.55  =  55% .

But the test engineer forgot one little minor almost insignificant detail.
As a test engineer myself, I'd say that he needs to turn in his laptop
and soldering iron, and think about changing his career to a job for
which he may be better suited, like 8 hours a day in a highway toll-booth.  

What about that little radio transmitter and receiver inside the phone,
that maintain digital RF communication with the nearest cell tower ?
Without that microscopic radio transceiver ... plus 30 or 40 apps
that are always running unless you shut them off ... the device in your
pocket is essentially a flat rock with one side that sometimes glows.

How do noise canceling headphones work?
postnew [5]

Answer:

B.) by interfering with sound waves

Explanation:

As we know that the interference of sound waves is of two types

1). constructive interference

2). destructive interference

now we know that constructive interference means the resultant intensity will be more than the intensity of interfering waves as here two waves are in same phase.

In destructive interference the resultant of two waves is given by the minimum resultant of the intensity as here the phase of two waves are opposite to each other.

So we will say that

I = \sqrt{(I_1 + I_2 + 2\sqrt{I_1I_2}cos\theta)}

here in case of noise cancelling headphones we know that the phase of noise is always made in opposite phase with the sound which is used to cancelled the noise.

This will reduce the noise and we will get a clear sound
