"In a pure substance all the particles must be identical; therefore pure substances are composed only of elements." Do you agree

with this statement? Why or why not?

I do not agree with the statement.
The "substance" can be a compound.  It's "pure"
as long as there's nothing else in it but its name.

'Pure' water is 100% H₂O with nothing else in it.
'Pure' table salt is 100% NaCl with nothing else in it.
'Pure' carbon dioxide is 100% CO₂ with nothing else in it.

These example substances are all compounds, not elements.

A computational model predicts the maximum potential energy a roller coaster car can have given its mass and its speed at the lo
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

The prediction for its maximum potential energy is 109,375 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the coaster car, m = 350 kg

speed of the coaster car at the lowest point, v = 25 m/s

The coaster car will have maximum kinetic energy at the lowest point and based on law of conservation of mechanical energy, the maximum kinetic energy of the coaster car at the lowest point will be equal to maximum potential energy at the highest point.

K.E_{max} = P.E_{max}

K.E_{max} = \frac{1}{2} mv^2\\\\K.E_{max} = \frac{1}{2} (350)(25)^2\\\\K.E_{max} =109,375 \ J

Thus, P.E_{max} = 109,375 \ J

Therefore, the prediction for its maximum potential energy is 109,375 J

A circular ring with area 4.45 cm2 is carrying a current of 13.5 A. The ring, initially at rest, is immersed in a region of unif
Gwar [14]

Answer:

a) ( 0.0015139 i^ + 0.0020185 j^ + 0.00060556 k^ ) N.m

b) ΔU = -0.000747871 J

c)  w = 47.97 rad / s

Explanation:

Given:-

- The area of the circular ring, A = 4.45 cm^2

- The current carried by circular ring, I = 13.5 Amps

- The magnetic field strength, vec ( B ) = (1.05×10−2T).(12i^+3j^−4k^)

- The magnetic moment initial orientation, vec ( μi ) = μ.(−0.8i^+0.6j^)  

- The magnetic moment final orientation, vec ( μf ) = -μ k^

- The inertia of ring, T = 6.50×10^−7 kg⋅m2

Solution:-

- First we will determine the magnitude of magnetic moment ( μ ) from the following relation:

                    μ = N*I*A

Where,

           N: The number of turns

           I : Current in coil

           A: the cross sectional area of coil

- Use the given values and determine the magnitude ( μ ) for a single coil i.e ( N = 1 ):

                    μ = 1*( 13.5 ) * ( 4.45 / 100^2 )

                    μ = 0.0060075 A-m^2

- From definition the torque on the ring is the determined from cross product of the magnetic moment vec ( μ ) and magnetic field strength vec ( B ). The torque on the ring in initial position:

             vec ( τi ) = vec ( μi ) x vec ( B )

              = 0.0060075*( -0.8 i^ + 0.6 j^ ) x 0.0105*( 12 i^ + 3 j^ -4 k^ )

              = ( -0.004806 i^ + 0.0036045 j^ ) x ( 0.126 i^ + 0.0315 j^ -0.042 k^ )

- Perform cross product:

          \left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\-0.004806&0.0036045&0\\0.126&0.0315&-0.042\end{array}\right]  = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-0.00015139\\-0.00020185\\-0.00060556\end{array}\right] \\\\

- The initial torque ( τi ) is written as follows:

           vec ( τi ) = ( 0.0015139 i^ + 0.0020185 j^ + 0.00060556 k^ )

           

- The magnetic potential energy ( U ) is the dot product of magnetic moment vec ( μ ) and magnetic field strength vec ( B ):

- The initial potential energy stored in the circular ring ( Ui ) is:

          Ui = - vec ( μi ) . vec ( B )

          Ui =- ( -0.004806 i^ + 0.0036045 j^ ) . ( 0.126 i^ + 0.0315 j^ -0.042 k^ )

          Ui = -[( -0.004806*0.126 ) + ( 0.0036045*0.0315 ) + ( 0*-0.042 )]

          Ui = - [(-0.000605556 + 0.00011)]

          Ui = 0.000495556 J

- The final potential energy stored in the circular ring ( Uf ) is determined in the similar manner after the ring is rotated by 90 degrees with a new magnetic moment orientation ( μf ) :

          Uf = - vec ( μf ) . vec ( B )

          Uf = - ( -0.0060075 k^ ) . ( 0.126 i^ + 0.0315 j^ -0.042 k^ )

          Uf = - [( 0*0.126 ) + ( 0*0.0315 ) + ( -0.0060075*-0.042 ) ]

          Uf = -0.000252315 J

- The decrease in magnetic potential energy of the ring is arithmetically determined:

          ΔU = Uf - Ui

          ΔU = -0.000252315 - 0.000495556  

          ΔU = -0.000747871 J

Answer: There was a decrease of ΔU = -0.000747871 J of potential energy stored in the ring.

- We will consider the system to be isolated from any fictitious forces and gravitational effects are negligible on the current carrying ring.

- The conservation of magnetic potential ( U ) energy in the form of Kinetic energy ( Ek ) is valid for the given application:

                Ui + Eki = Uf + Ekf

Where,

             Eki : The initial kinetic energy ( initially at rest ) = 0

             Ekf : The final kinetic energy at second position

- The loss in potential energy stored is due to the conversion of potential energy into rotational kinetic energy of current carrying ring.    

               -ΔU = Ekf

                0.5*T*w^2 = -ΔU

                w^2 = -ΔU*2 / T

Where,

                w: The angular speed at second position

               w = √(0.000747871*2 / 6.50×10^−7)

              w = 47.97 rad / s

Which of the following usually occurs with a short circuit? a. All parts of the circuit will begin to carry higher amounts of cu
fgiga [73]

Answer:

Hi,

The correct answer option is; D. Most of the current will flow through one part of the circuit.

Explanation:

A short circuit is a low resistance path in an electric connection between two conductors supplying current in a circuit.

It happens when excess amounts of current flow in the power source through a 'short path'.

Short circuits occur at very high temperatures which is of course caused by the heat produced during dissipation.

An example of application of short circuit is arc welding, where heating is achieved through short circuit.

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:3.77 T/s

Explanation:

Given

Area of cross-section=3.7\times 3.7 cm^2=13.69 cm^2

N=no of turns=61

Resistance=R=8 \Omega

current (i)=0.04 A

emf induced=i\times R=0.04\times 8=0.32 V

emf induced e=NA\frac{\mathrm{d} B}{\mathrm{d} t}

0.32=62\times 13.69\times 10^{-4}\times \frac{\mathrm{d} B}{\mathrm{d} t}

\frac{\mathrm{d} B}{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{0.32\times 10^4}{848.78}=3.77 T/s
