Answer:

The object gains or loses electrons to become charged. Both are a movement of electrons from the negative to the positive charge. A circuit has a continuous current provided by a voltage source.

Which statements describe velocity and acceleration? Check all that apply.

Tom [10]

Velocity is defined by rate of change in the position

which we can also write as

$v = \frac{ds}{dt}$

while acceleration is defined as rate of change in velocity

$a = \frac{dv}{dt}$

so acceleration and velocity both are rate of change in position and rate of change in velocity with respect to time respectively

out of all above statement the correct answer must be

Acceleration equals change in velocity divided by time.

A solid circular shaft and a tubular shaft, both with the same outer radius of c=co = 0.550 in , are being considered for a part

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

The power for circular shaft is 7.315 hp and tubular shaft is 6.667 hp

Explanation:

Polar moment of Inertia

$(I_p)s = \frac{\pi(0.55)4}2$

= 0.14374 in 4

Maximum sustainable torque on the solid circular shaft

$T_{max} = T_{allow} \frac{I_p}{r}$

= $(14 \times 10^3) \times (\frac{0.14374}{0.55})$

= 3658.836 lb.in

= $\frac{3658.836}{12}$ lb.ft

= 304.9 lb.ft

Maximum sustainable torque on the tubular shaft

$T_{max} = T_{allow}( \frac{Ip}{r})$

= $(14 \times10^3) \times ( \frac{0.13101}{0.55})$

= 3334.8 lb.in

= $(\frac{3334.8}{12} )$ lb.ft

= 277.9 lb.ft

Maximum sustainable power in the solid circular shaft

$P_{max} = 2 \pi f_T$

= $2\pi(2.1) \times 304.9$

= 4023.061 lb. ft/s

= $(\frac{4023.061}{550})$ hp

= 7.315 hp

Maximum sustainable power in the tubular shaft

$P _{max,t} = 2\pi f_T$

= $2\pi(2.1) \times 277.9$

= 3666.804 lb.ft /s

= $(\frac{3666.804}{550})$ hp

= 6.667 hp

Electric field lines always begin at _______ charges (or at infinity) and end at _______ charges (or at infinity). One could als

lesantik [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

By convention, the electric field lines (which are tangent to the direction of the electric field at a given point) always begin at positive charges, and finish at negative charges.

This is a consequence of the convention that states that the electric field has the direction of the trajectory of a positive test charge when released from rest in an electric field.

(As the positive charge would move away from positive charges and would be attracted by negative ones).

So, the combination of answers that is true is b) (positive, negative, positive).

A ray of light incident in air strikes a rectangular glass block of refractive index 1.5 at angle of incidence of 45.

Gwar [14]

Refraction is said to occur when there is a change in the speed of light.

<h3>What is the angle of refraction?</h3>

We know that refraction is said to occur when there is a change in the speed of light as it travels form one medium to another.

Given that the refractive index of the rectangular glass block is 1.5. The angle of refraction can be obtained by the use of the Snell's law;

n = sin i /sinr

n = refractive index

sini = angle of incidence

sin r = angle of refraction

sinr = sini/n

sinr = sin 45/1.5

= 0.471

r = 28 degrees

b) Now;

sinr =sin 45/1.2

sinr = 0.589

r = 36 degrees

For the glass

sinr = sin 36/1.5

sin r = 0.392

r = 23 degrees
