10. Electrical Power: Why do our electronic devices get hot? We know

Physics
1 answer:
Vesna [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Now, think on the electrons flowing through a conductor (we can think on the resistor as a simple conductor, like a piece of metal)

Inside the conductor, we have some "fixed" (they do not flow with the current) electrons, such that as the current flows in the conductor, the flowing electrons can interact with the fixed ones in the conductor. Then we can have collisions inside the conductor.

In those collisions, the flowing electrons leave energy in the conductor, and as we know, heat is a form of energy. Then when we have a lot of these collisions, the temperature of the conductor increases.

That is why electronic devices get hot.

Also, as the temperature of a conductor increases, the electrons inside of it start to move more, then the probability of an interaction with the flowing electrons increases.

A line from the Brackett series of hydrogen has a wavelength of 1945nm (or 1.0979x10^7m). From which state did the electron orig
Zarrin [17]
We use the Rydberg Equation for this which is expressed as:

<span>1/ lambda = R [ 1/(n2)^2 - 1/(n1)^2]
</span>
where lambda is the wavelength, where n represents the final and initial states. Brackett series means that the initial orbit that electron was there is 4 and R is equal to 1.0979x10^7m<span>. Thus,
</span>
1/ lambda = R [ 1/(n2)^2 - 1/(n1)^2]
1/1.0979x10^7m = 1.0979x10^7m [ 1/(n2)^2 - 1/(4)^2]

Solving for n2, we obtain n=1.

What is the minimum runway length that will serve? hint: you can solve this problem using ratios without having any additional i
ehidna [41]

There are many factors that determine if an aircraft can operate from a given airport. Of course the availability of certain services, such as fuel, access to air stairs and maintenance are all necessary. But before considering anything else, one must determine if the plane can physically land at an airport, and equally as important, take off.

What is the minimum runway length that will serve?

Looking at aerial views of runways can lead some to the assumption that they are all uniform, big and appropriate for any plane to land. This couldn’t be further from the truth.

A given aircraft type has its own individual set of requirements in regards to these dimensions. The classic 150’ wide runway that can handle a wide-body plane for a large group charter flight isn’t a guarantee at every airport. Knowing the width of available runways is important for a variety of reasons including runway illusion and crosswind condition.

Runways also have different approach categories based on width, and have universal threshold markings that indicate the actual width.
