Why is it not economical to connect houses to the national grid?
Why does it cost so much? Electricity is sent through the National Grid cables at very high voltages - between 132,000 and 400,000. It benefits National Grid to not have to keep investing in reinforcing the high-voltage grid necessary to transport the power long distances

Assume a solar cell would produce a current of 500mA and 3 V. What is the power of this solar cell?
defon

Answer:

the power of the solar cell is 1.5 watts

Explanation:

Recall that power is defined as the product of the voltage (V) times the running current (I): Power = V * I.

The only thing we have to take care of before actually performing the operation, is to convert milliamps into Amps, so our answer comes directly in the appropriate units (Watts). 500 mAmps can be written as 0.5 Amps, then, the product becomes:

Power = V * I = 3 V * 0.5 Amps = 1.5 watts

Why does the emission of an alpha particle always result in transmutation?
prohojiy [21]

Explanation:

some radioactive isotope are present as terrestrial radiation other radioactive isotope are produced by humans via nuclear reactions which is result in unstable combination of neutrons and proton one way of artificially inducing nuclear transmutation is by bombarding stable isotopes with alpha particles

Example 4.6 provides a nice example of the overlap between kinematics and dynamics. It is known that the plane accelerates from
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

ax = 2.60m/s^{2}, t = 26.92s

Explanation:

The acceleration of the plane can be determined by means of the kinematic equation that correspond to a Uniformly Accelerated Rectilinear Motion.

(vx)f^{2} = (vx)i^{2} + 2ax \Lambda x (1)

Where (vx)f^{2} is the final velocity, (vx)i^{2} is the initial velocity, ax is the acceleration and  \Lambda x is the distance traveled.

Equation (1) can be rewritten in terms of ax:

(vx)f^{2} - (vx)i^{2} = 2ax \Lambda x

2ax \Lambda x = (vx)f^{2} - (vx)i^{2}

ax = \frac{(vx)f^{2} - (vx)i^{2}}{2 \Lambda x}  (2)

Since the plane starts from rest, its initial velocity will be zero ((vx) = 0):

Replacing the values given in equation 2, it is gotten:

ax = \frac{(70m/s)^{2} - (0m/s)^{2}}{2(940m)}

ax = \frac{4900m/s}{2(940m)}

ax = \frac{4900m/s}{1880m}

ax = 2.60m/s^{2}

So, The acceleration of the plane is 2.60m/s^{2}    

Now that the acceleration is known, the next equation can be used to find out the time:

(vx)f = (vx)i + axt (3)

Rewritten equation (3) in terms of t:

t = \frac{(vx)f - (vx)i}{ax}

t = \frac{70m/s - 0m/s}{2.60m/s^{2}}

t = 26.92s

<u>Hence, the plane takes 26.92 seconds to reach its take-off speed.</u>

You’ve set up a frictionless car racetrack, with a loop of radius 0.5 m. Your toy car of mass 2 kg starts at rest at the top of
Anna007 [38]

Answer

h = 1.12 m

Explanation:

given,

mass of the car = 2 kg

radius = 0.5 m

let h be the height of the ramp

when the car reaches at the top point

gravity = centripetal force  

mg =\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

g =\dfrac{v^2}{r}

v = \sqrt{gr}

using conservation of energy

\PE_i = PE_f + KE_f

m g h = m g (2r)+\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

g h =g (2r)+\dfrac{1}{2}(\sqrt{gr})^2

g h =2 gr +\dfrac{gr}{2}

h =\dfrac{5r}{2}

h =\dfrac{5\times 0.5}{2}

h = 1.12 m

hence, height of the ramp should be greater than  1.12 m so that it can complete the loop.
