Figure 1 shows the kinetic energy as a function of time for a 2kg object that is released from rest and falls toward Earth’s sur

face. Figure 2 shows the kinetic energy as a function of time for a 5kg object that is released from rest and falls toward Earth’s surface. Both objects are released simultaneously from the same height. How much does the gravitational potential energy of the object-object-Earth system change from 0s to 10s ?
a) 400J
b)600 J
c)1000 J
d) 1400J

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

The answer is 1400 J, according to my Physics teacher.

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

You need to take into account everything that is listed in the question; it's important to remember that the question is asking about the change in gravitational potential energy of the object-object-Earth system from 0s to 10s, not 0s to 20s. :)

A charge of 25 nC is uniformly distributed along a straight rod of length 3.0 m that is bent into a circular arc with a radius o
Greeley [361]

Answer:

E = 31.329 N/C.

Explanation:

The differential electric field dE at the center of curvature of the arc is

dE = k\dfrac{dQ}{r^2}cos(\theta ) <em>(we have a cosine because vertical components cancel, leaving only horizontal cosine components of E. )</em>

where r is the radius of curvature.

Now

dQ = \lambda rd\theta,

where \lambda is the charge per unit length, and it has the value

\lambda = \dfrac{25*10^{-9}C}{3.0m} = 8.3*10^{-9}C/m.

Thus, the electric field at the center of the curvature of the arc is:

E = \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2} k\dfrac{\lambda rd\theta  }{r^2} cos(\theta)

E = \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2}cos(\theta) d\theta.

Now, we find \theta_1 and \theta_2. To do this we ask ourselves what fraction is the arc length  3.0 of the circumference of the circle:

fraction = \dfrac{3.0m}{2\pi (2.3m)}  = 0.2076

and this is  

0.2076*2\pi =1.304 radians.

Therefore,

E = \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2} cos(\theta)d\theta= \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{0}^{1.304}cos(\theta) d\theta.

evaluating the integral, and putting in the numerical values  we get:

E = \dfrac{8.3*10^{-9} *9*10^9}{2.3} *(sin(1.304)-sin(0))\\

\boxed{ E = 31.329N/C.}

Burka [1]

Answer:

a) Batteries and fuel cells are examples of galvanic cell

b) Ag-cathode and Zn-anode

c) Cell notation:  Zn(s)|Zn²⁺(aq) || Ag⁺(aq)|Ag(s)

Explanation:

a) A galvanic cell is an electrochemical cell in which chemical energy is converted to electrical energy. The chemical reaction which drives a galvanic cell is a redox reaction i.e. a reduction-oxidation process.

A typical galvanic cell is composed of two electrodes immersed in a suitable electrolyte and connected via a salt bridge. One of the electrodes serves as a cathode where reduction or gain of electrons takes place. The other half cell functions as an anode where oxidation or loss of electrons occurs. Batteries and fuel cells are examples of galvanic cells.

b) The nature of the electrode that will serve as an anode or cathode depends on the value of the standard reduction potential (E⁰) of that electrode. The electrode with a higher or more positive the value of E⁰ serves as the cathode and the other will function as an anode.

In the given case, the E⁰ values from the standard reduction potential table are:

E⁰(Zn/Zn2+) = -0.763 V

E°(Ag/Ag+)=+0.799 V

Therefore, Ag will be the cathode and Zn will be the anode

c) In the standard cell notation, the anode half cell is written on the left followed by the salt bridge '||' and finally the cathode half cell to the right.

Zn(s)|Zn²⁺(aq) || Ag⁺(aq)|Ag(s)
