Answer:

he electron moves in the direction of a greater electric potential

Explanation:

Electric potential and electric field are related

V = -∫ E .ds

he electric force is related to the electric field

F = q E

F = q (-dV / ds)

since the electron has charge a = 1.6 1019 C

F = e dv / ds

therefore the electron moves in the direction of a greater electric potential

Suppose you are running late in the morning and drying your hair in the kitchen with the hairdryer plugged into the outlet with

lesantik [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

It is given that Hair dryer , Toaster and coffeepot are working simultaneously with power 1200 W , 700 W and 800 W respectively.

So the total power of system is $P_t=1200+700+800=2700\ W$

it is given that they work properly until toast is on.

By switching on the toast, appliance stop working because it may cause the circuit to break to safeguard the circuit.

Circuit breaker frame are used in home to prevent the short circuit

What is the velocity of a fly with a mass of approximately 6.85 times 10 to the negative 6 slugs if it has a kinetic energy of 5

vodka [1.7K]

Velocity of the fly: 1318 m/s

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion. It can be calculated as

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

For the fly in this problem, we have

$m=6.85\cdot 10^{-6} kg$ is the mass

K = 5.95 J is the kinetic energy

Solving for v, we find its velocity:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(5.95)}{(6.85\cdot 10^{-6})}}=1318 m/s$

A force of 100 N acts upward. Resolve this force into 2 components; one that acts 30º north of west and one that acts 60º north

GrogVix [38]

To resolve these forces we have to make use of the sines and cosines.

To resolve this force in 30 degree north of west, the answer will be

100*sin(30)

The answer will be 50N

Now to resolve the force acting 60 degree north of east

100* cos(60)

The answer will be 50N.

This also adds to the total force acting that is 50+50=100N. This is the way forces are resolved according to their specified angles.

Problem: At the local swimming hole, a favorite trick is torun

denis23 [38]

Answer:

2 revolutions

Explanation:

Assume that when she runs off the edge of the 8.3m high cliff, her vertical speed is 0. So gravitational acceleration g = 9.8m/s2 is the only thing that makes her fall down. So we can use the following equation of motion to calculate the time it takes for her to fall down:

$s = gt^2/2$
