The natural process is called greenhouse effect. This is when the Sun's light enters the Earth, and converts to heat. Light passes through the Earth's atmosphere much easier compared to heat. Because of this, heat is trapped on Earth because it cannot exit the atmosphere as easily as light does.

Is the battery sends a current of 10 A through a circuit for one hour, how many coulombs will flow through the circuit?
garik1379 [7]

1 Ampere = 1 coulomb/second

1 hour = 3,600 seconds

1 coulomb/second = 3,600 coulomb/hour

10 Amperes x 1 hour = 36,000 coulomb/hour

A block of mass m is placed on a smooth wedge of inclination θ . The whole system is accelerated horizontally so that the block
Helen [10]

Answer: mg/Cosθ

Explanation:

Taking horizontal acceleration of wedge as 'a'

FCosΘ = FsinΘ

F = mass(m) × acceleration(a) = ma

For horizontal resolution g = 0

Therefore,

Horizontal = Vertical

maCosΘ = mgSinΘ

aCosΘ = gSinΘ

a = gSinΘ/CosΘ

Recall from trigonometry :

SinΘ/Cosθ = tanΘ

Therefore,

a = gtanΘ

Normal force acing on the wedge:

mgCosΘ + maSinΘ - - - - (y)

Substitute a = gtanΘ into (y)

mgCosΘ + mgtanΘsinΘ

tanΘ = sinΘ/cosΘ

mgCosΘ + mgsinΘ/cosΘsinΘ

mgCosΘ + mgsin^2Θ/cosΘ

Factorizing

mg(Cosθ + sin^2Θ/cosΘ)

Taking the L. C. M

mg[(Cos^2θ + sin^2Θ) /Cosθ]

Recall: Cos^2θ + sin^2Θ = 1

mg[ 1 /Cosθ]

mg/Cosθ

PLEASE ANSWER FAST In which of the following situations is the greatest amount of work accomplished? 1. A boy lifts a 2-newton b
GuDViN [60]

Explanation:

Work done is given by the product of force and displacement.

Case 1,

1. A boy lifts a 2-newton box 0.8 meters.

W = 2 N × 0.8 m = 1.6 J

2. A boy lifts a 5-newton box 0.8 meters.

W = 5 N × 0.8 m = 4 J

3. A boy lifts a 8-newton box 0.2 meters.

W = 8 N × 0.2 m = 1.6 J

4. A boy lifts a 10-newton box 0.2 meters.

W = 10 N × 0.2 m = 2 J

Out of the four options, in option (2) ''A boy lifts a 5-newton box 0.8 meters'', the work done is 4 J. Hence, the greatest work done is 4 J.

A long, thin straight wire with linear charge density ? runs down the center of a thin, hollow metal cylinder of radius R. The c
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

a. E = \frac{\lambda }{(2\epsilon * r) }

b. E = \frac{3(lambda)}{2\pi*\epsilon(outside)  }

Explanation:

The important thing to remember is to use Gauss Law. This is a relation that describes the distribution of electric charge to the resultant electric field.

Linear charge density means charge per unit length of material.

Data:

The metal cylinder is hollow.

The unit length is L.

a.The expression will be as follows:

for charge inside the cylinder, where r < R, the expression is:

E = \frac{\lambda }{(2\epsilon * r) }

b. Let's assume that the cylinder is a coaxial cylinder with a radius r > R, then the electrical field strength is given as:

E = \frac{Q ( enclosed)}{A*\epsilon }

E = \frac{\lambda*L+2(\lambda)*L }{(A)*\epsilon(outside) }

E  = \frac{3(\lambda)L }{(2\pi*R*L*\epsilon(outside)  }

This gives:

E = \frac{3(lambda)}{2\pi*\epsilon(outside)  }

The solution informs us that there is a surface change taking place on the cylinder. Therefore, there will not be a magnetic field across it.

Calculated the measurement uncertainty for Kinetic Energy when :mass = 1.3[kg] +/- 0.4[kg]velocity= 5.2 [m/s] +/- 0.2 [m/s]KE= 1
andriy [413]

Answer:

\rm KE\pm \Delta KE = 17.6\pm 6.8\ J.

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Mass, \rm m\pm\Delta m = 1.3\pm 0.4\ kg.
  • Velocity, \rm v\pm \Delta v = 5.2\pm 0.2\ m/s.

where,

\rm \Delta m,\ \Delta v are the uncertainties in mass and velocity respectively.

The kinetic energy is given by

\rm KE = \dfrac 12 mv^2 = \dfrac 12 \times 1.3\times 5.2^2=17.576\approx 17.6\ J.

The uncertainty in kinetic energy is given as:

\rm \dfrac{\Delta KE}{KE}=\dfrac{\Delta m}{m}+\dfrac{2\Delta v}{v}\\\dfrac{\Delta KE}{17.6}=\dfrac{0.4}{1.3}+\dfrac{2\times 0.2}{5.2}\\\dfrac{\Delta KE}{17.6}=0.384\\\Rightarrow \Delta KE = 17.6\times 0.384 = 6.7854\ J\approx6.8\ J\\\\Thus,\\\\KE\pm \Delta KE = 17.6\pm 6.8\ J.
