Answer:

wind energy

Explanation:

Wind energy can be defined as a form of a solar energy. It is generated by the immense force of the wind that blows in an area. Wind energy is a useful energy and is mostly used to generate electricity. It is clean source of energy.

In the context, trash can lid is being blown away by the wind energy and it is seen moving across the yard. The energy of the wind forces the lid of the trash can to move from one place to another against friction. Thus, wind energy caused the trash can lid to move across the yard as seen by a student.

On the graph of voltage versus current, which line represents a 2.0 Ω resistor?

Vikki [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to ohm's law V = IR where;

V i sthe supply voltage (in volts)

I = supply current (in amperes)

R = resistance (in ohms)

In order to calculate the line that is equal to 2ohms, we need to calculate the slope of each line using the formula.

For line B, R = ΔV/ΔI

R = V₂-V₁/I₂-I₁

R = 14.0-4.0/7.0-2.0

R = 10.0/5.0

R = 2.0ohms

Since the slope of line B is equal to 2 ohms, this shows that the line B is the one that represents the 2ohms resistor.

Assume that the loop is initially positioned at θ=30∘θ=30∘ and the current flowing into the loop is 0.500 AA . If the magnitude

labwork [276]

Answer: $\tau=1.03\times 10^{-4}\ N-m$

Torque,

Explanation:

Given that,

The loop is positioned at an angle of 30 degrees.

Current in the loop, I = 0.5 A

The magnitude of the magnetic field is 0.300 T, B = 0.3 T

We need to find the net torque about the vertical axis of the current loop due to the interaction of the current with the magnetic field. We know that the torque is given by :

$\tau=NIAB\ \sin\theta$

Let us assume that, $A=0.0008\ m^2$

$\theta$ is the angle between normal and the magnetic field, $\theta=90^{\circ}-30^{\circ}=60^{\circ}$

Torque is given by :

$\tau=1\times 0.5\ A\times 0.0008\ m^2\times 0.3\ T\ \sin(60)\\\\\tau=1.03\times 10^{-4}\ N-m$

So, the net torque about the vertical axis is $1.03\times 10^{-4}\ N-m$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

A resistor R1 is wired to a battery, then resistor R2 is added in series. Are (a) the potential difference across R1 and (b) the

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Earlier emf of cell applied on R₁ but now emf will be distributed among R₁ and R₂

Potential difference on R₁ will become less .

b ) Current is inversely proportional to resistance of the circuit. As resistance increases , current will be less . So current through R₁ will become less.

c )

When resistance is added in series , they are added up to obtain equivalent resistance . So equivalent resistance R₁₂ will be more than R₁ OR R₂.
