Charge flows from low potential to high potential. O True or O False

1 answer:

inn [45]3 years ago

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Think of the electric potential in terms of potential energy. If you imagine a place with high elevation (A) and another one at sea level (B), a ball will roll from high potential to low potential (A-->B).

Everything in our universe wants to reach a lower state of energy if no external force is acted upon it. Every object tends to slow down (friction), a radioactive element dissipates energy (an unstable element releases energy to get to a stable state), water in the clouds comes down to the ground (rain experiencing difference in potential energy).

Electric potential is exactly the same, you just can't see it! It flows from higher voltage (which is a synonym for electric potential) to lower voltage.

A thin taut string is fixed at both ends and stretched along the horizontal x-axis with its left end at x = 0. It is vibrating i

Fofino [41]

Answer:

(a) Wavelength is 0.436 m

(b) Length is 0.872 m

(c) 11.518 m/s

Solution:

As per the question:

The eqn of the displacement is given by:

$y(x, t) = (1.22 cm)sin[14.4 m^{- 1}x]cos[(166\ rad/s)t]$ (1)

n = 4

Now,

We know the standard eqn is given by:

$y = AsinKxcos\omega t$ (2)

Now, on comparing eqn (1) and (2):

A = 1.22 cm

K = $14.4 m^{- 1}$

$\omega = 166\ rad/s$

where

A = Amplitude

K = Propagation constant

$\omega$ = angular velocity

Now, to calculate the string's wavelength,

(a) $K = \frac{2\pi}{\lambda}$

where

K = propagation vector

$\lambda = \frac{2\pi}{K}$

$\lambda = \frac{2\pi}{14.4} = 0.436\ m$

(b) The length of the string is given by:

$l = \frac{n\lambda}{2}$

$l = \frac{4\times 0.436}{2} = 0.872\ m$

(c) Now, we first find the frequency of the wave:

$\omega = 2\pi f$

$f = \frac{\omega}{2\pi}$

$f = \frac{2\pi}{166} = 26.42\ Hz$

Now,

Speed of the wave is given by:

$v = f\lambda$

$v = 26.419\times 0.436 = 11.518\ m/s$

A small, 300 g cart is moving at 1.20 m/s on an air track when it collides with a larger, 2.00 kg cart at rest?

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

The speed of the large cart after collision is 0.301 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the cart, $m_1 = 300\ g = 0.3\ kg$

Initial speed of the cart, $u_1=1.2\ m/s$

Mass of the larger cart, $m_2 = 2\ kg$

Initial speed of the larger cart, $u_2=0$

After the collision,

Final speed of the smaller cart, $v_1=-0.81\ m/s$ (as its recolis)

To find,

The speed of the large cart after collision.

Solution,

Let $v_2$ is the speed of the large cart after collision. It can be calculated using conservation of momentum as :

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1=m_2v_2$

$v_2=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1}{m_2}$

$v_2=\dfrac{0.3\times 1.2+0-0.3\times (-0.81)}{2}$

$v_2=0.301\ m/s$

So, the speed of the large cart after collision is 0.301 m/s.
