The potential energy of the charges due to the voltage between the terminals is converted to kinetic energy in the device. These devices are called passive components or loads; they 'consume' electric power from the circuit, converting it to other forms of energy such as mechanical work, heat, light, etc.

Suppose you push a hockey puck of mass m across frictionless ice for a time \Delta t, starting from rest, giving thepuck speed v
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

1. t_2 = 2t_1

2. t_2 = t_1\sqrt{2}

Explanation:

1. According to Newton's law of motion, the puck motion is affected by the acceleration, which is generated by the push force F.

In Newton's 2nd law: F = ma

where m is the mass of the object and a is the resulted acceleration. So in the 2nd experiment, if we double the mass, a would be reduced by half.

a_1 = 2a_2

Since the puck start from rest, in the 1st experiment, to achieve speed of v it would take t time

t = v / a_1

Now that acceleration is halved:

t = \frac{v}{2a_2}

\frac{v}{a_2} = 2t

You would need to push for twice amount of time t_2 = 2t_1

2. The distance traveled by the puck is as the following equation:

d = at^2

So if the acceleration is halved while maintaining the same d:

\frac{d_1}{d_2} = \frac{a_1t_1^2/2}{a_2t_2^2/2}

As d_1 = d_2, then d_1/d_2 = 1. Also a_1 = 2a_2

1 = \frac{2a_2t_1^2}{a_2t_2^2}

t_2^2 = 2t_1^2

t_2 = t_1\sqrt{2}\approx 1.14t_1

So t increased by 1.14

If each of the charges is increased by two times and the distance between them is also increased by two times, the electromagnet
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer: The force does not change.

Explanation:

The force between two charges q₁ and q₂ is:

F = k*(q₁*q₂)/r^2

where:

k is a constant.

r is the distance between the charges.

Now, if we increase the charge of each particle two times, then the new charges will be: 2*q₁ and 2*q₂.

If we also increase the distance between the charges two times, the new distance will be 2*r

Then the new force between them is:

F = k*(2*q₁*2*q₂)/(2*r)^2 = k*(4*q₁*q₂)/(4*r^2) = (4/4)*k*(q₁*q₂)/r^2 = k*(q₁*q₂)/r^2

This is exactly the same as we had at the beginning, then we can conclude that if we increase each of the charges two times and the distance between the charges two times, the force between the charges does not change.
