How does a switch work in a circuit​

Physics
1 answer:
NNADVOKAT [17]3 years ago
5 0

An electric switch is a device that interrupts the electron flow in a circuit. Switches are primarily binary devices: either fully on or off and light switches have a simple design. When the switch is turned off, the circuit breaks and the power flow is interrupted. Circuits consist of a source of power and load.

Two cars are traveling in the same direction and with the same speed along a straight highway. Does either driver hear a differe
Trava [24]

Answer:

No, either driver can not hear a different frequency from the other car's horn than they would if the cars were stationary.

Explanation:

Either driver hear a different frequency from the other car's horn than they would if the cars were stationary if two cars are traveling in the same direction and with the same speed along a straight highway because neither driver experiences a Doppler shift

If the cold temperature reservoir of a Carnot engine is held at a constant 306 K, what temperature should the hot reservoir be k
Paraphin [41]
Efficiency η of a Carnot engine is defined to be: 
<span>η = 1 - Tc / Th = (Th - Tc) / Th </span>
<span>where </span>
<span>Tc is the absolute temperature of the cold reservoir, and </span>
<span>Th is the absolute temperature of the hot reservoir. </span>

<span>In this case, given is η=22% and Th - Tc = 75K </span>
<span>Notice that although temperature difference is given in °C it has same numerical value in Kelvins because magnitude of the degree Celsius is exactly equal to that of the Kelvin (the difference between two scales is only in their starting points). </span>

<span>Th = (Th - Tc) / η </span>
<span>Th = 75 / 0.22 = 341 K (rounded to closest number) </span>
<span>Tc = Th - 75 = 266 K </span>

<span>Lower temperature is Tc = 266 K </span>
<span>Higher temperature is Th = 341 K</span>

A juggler throws a ball straight up into the air. The ball remains in the air for a time (t) before it lands back in the juggler
natka813 [3]

Answer:

9.8 m/s^2, downward

Explanation:

There is only one force acting on the ball during its motion: the force of gravity, which is given by

F=mg

where

m is the mass of the ball

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (downward)

According to Newton's second law,

F=ma

where F is the net force on the object and a is its acceleration. Rearranging for a,

a=\frac{F}{m}

As we said, the only force acting on the ball is gravity, so F = mg and the acceleration of the ball is:

a=\frac{mg}{m}=g

Therefore, the ball has a constant acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2 downward for the entire motion.

Suppose the electric field in problems 2 was caused by a point charge. The test charge is moved to a distance twice as far from
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

it is reduced four times.

Explanation:

By definition, the electric field is the force per unit charge created by a charge distribution.

If the charge creating the field is a point charge, the force exerted by it on a test charge, must obey Coulomb´s Law, so, it must be inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges.

So, if the distance increases twice, as the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, and the square of 2 is 4, this means that the magnitude of the force exerted on the test charge must be 4 times smaller.
