Define potential difference in a uniform electric field?

Physics
1 answer:
8090 [49]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

For example, a uniform electric field E is produced by placing a potential difference (or voltage) ΔV across two parallel metal plates, labeled A and B. ... The relationship between ΔV and E is revealed by calculating the work done by the force in moving a charge from point A to point B.

Determine the current in the 7-ohm resistor for the circuit shown in the figure. Assume that the batteries are ideal and that al
seraphim [82]

Answer:

I₁ = 1.6 A (through 7 Ohm Resistor)

I₂ = 1.3 A (through 8 Ohm Resistor)

I₃ = I₁ - I₂ = 1.6 A - 1.3 A = 0.3 A (through 4 Ohm Resistor)

Explanation:

Here we consider two loops doe applying Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL). The 1st loop is the left side one with a voltage source of 12 V and the 2nd Loop is the right side one with a voltage source of 9 V. We name the sources and resistor's as follows:

R₁ = 7 Ω

R₂ = 4 Ω

R₃ = 8 Ω

V₁ = 12 V

V₂ = 9 V

Now, we apply KVL to 1st Loop:

V₁ = I₁R₁ + (I₁ - I₂)R₂

12 = 7I₁ + (I₁ - I₂)(4)

12 = 7I₁ + 4I₁ - 4I₂

I₁ = (12 + 4 I₂)/11   ------------ equation (1)

Now, we apply KVL to 2nd Loop:

V₂ = (I₂ - I₁)R₂ + I₂R₃

9 = (I₂ - I₁)(4) + 8I₂

9 = 4I₂ - 4I₁ + 8I₂

9 = 12I₂ - 4I₁   -------------- equation (2)

using equation (1)

9 = 12I₂ - 4[(12 + 4 I₂)/11]

99 = 132 I₂ -  48 - 16 I₂

147 = 116 I₂

I₂ = 147/116

I₂ = 1.3 A

use this value in equation 2:

9 = 12(1.3 A) - 4I₁

4I₁ = 15.6 - 9

I₁ = 6.6 A/4

I₁ = 1.6 A

Hence, the currents through all resistors are:

<u>I₁ = 1.6 A (through 7 Ohm Resistor)</u>

<u>I₂ = 1.3 A (through 8 Ohm Resistor)</u>

<u>I₃ = I₁ - I₂ = 1.6 A - 1.3 A = 0.3 A (through 4 Ohm Resistor)</u>

What would be the coefficient of performance if the refrigerator (operating between the same temperatures) was instead used as a
viktelen [127]

Complete Question

A certain refrigerator, operating between temperatures of -8.00°C and +23.2°C, can be approximated as a Carnot refrigerator.

What is the refrigerator's coefficient of performance? COP

(b) What If? What would be the coefficient of performance if the refrigerator (operating between the same temperatures) was instead used as a heat pump? COP

Answer:

a

 COP = 8.49

b

  COP_1 = 9.49  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The lower operation temperature of refrigerator is  T_1 =  -8.00^oC =  265 \  K

     The upper operation temperature of the refrigerator is   T_2 =  23.2 ^oC =  296.2 \  K

Generally the refrigerators coefficient of performance is mathematically represented as

        COP =  \frac{T_1}{T_2 - T_1  }

=>     COP =  \frac{265}{296.2 - 265  }

=>     COP = 8.49

Generally if a refrigerator (operating between the same temperatures) was instead used as a heat pump , the coefficient of performance is mathematically represented as

            COP_1 =  \frac{T_2}{ T_2 - T_1}  

=>         COP_1 =  \frac{296.2}{ 296.2 - 265 }  

=>         COP_1 = 9.49

As water across the surface of the earth it dissolves material as it travels. What property of water does this demonstrate?
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

B) Water is a solvent

Explanation:

Among many other chemicals, water can dissolve a variety of substances. The solvent properties of chemicals are far beyond it. That property makes water a universal solvent.

Water has one atom of oxygen and two atoms of hydrogen.

One side of the water molecule is positively charged and the other side is negatively charged. This property attracts other substances like salt and disintegrates into positive and negatively charged ions. This property is due to its physical and chemical nature.
