Answer:

Solar energy - Chemical energy - Electrical energy

Explanation:

A photovoltaic is a device which operates with respect to its exposure to radiation or light. This property determines its applications in electronics.

The energy from sunlight is in the form of solar energy, which get absorbed by the photovoltaic cell. The cell transforms the solar energy and store it as chemical energy. This is now finally transformed majorly into electrical energy as the output energy from the cell. Some amount of heat energy is produced in the process.

Energy Conservation With Conservative Forces: If a spring-operated gun can shoot a pellet to a maximum height of 100 m on Earth,

crimeas [40]

Answer:

h' = 603.08 m

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the initial velocity of the pellet on the surface of Earth by using third equation of motion:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth = - 9.8 m/s² (negative sign due to upward motion)

h = height of pellet = 100 m

Vf = final velocity of pellet = 0 m/s (since, pellet will momentarily stop at highest point)

Vi = Initial Velocity of Pellet = ?

Therefore,

(2)(-9.8 m/s²)(100 m) = (0 m/s)² - Vi²

Vi = √(1960 m²/s²)

Vi = 44.27 m/s

Now, we use this equation at the surface of moon with same initial velocity:

2g'h' = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g' = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of moon = 1.625 m/s²

h' = maximum height gained by pellet on moon = ?

Therefore,

2(1.625 m/s²)h' = (44.27 m/s)² - (0 m/s)²

h' = (1960 m²/s²)/(3.25 m/s²)

A third point charge q3 is now positioned halfway between q1 and q2. The net force on q2 now has a magnitude of F2,net = 4.444 N

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

The value of third charge is 0.8μC.

Explanation:

Given that.

Magnitude of net force=4.444 N

According to figure,

Suppose, First charge = 2.4 μC

Second charge = 6.2 μC

Distance r₁ = 9.8 cm

Distance r₂ = 2.1 cm

We need to calculate the value of r

Using Pythagorean theorem

$r=\sqrt{(r_{1})^2+(r_{2})^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$r=\sqrt{(9.8)^2+(2.1)^2}$

$r=10.02\ cm$

We need to calculate the force

Using formula of force

$F_{12}=\dfrac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{(r)^2}$

Force F₁₂,

$F_{12}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times2.4\times10^{-6}\times6.2\times10^{-6}}{(10.02\times10^{-2})^2}$

$F_{12}=13.33\ N$

$F_{21}=-13.33\ N$

Force F₂₃,

$F_{23}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times6.2\times10^{-6}\times q_{3}}{(10.02)^2}$

We need to calculate the value of third charge

$F_{net}=F_{21}+F_{23}$

$4.444=-13.33+\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times6.2\times10^{-6}\times q_{3}}{(5.01)^2}$

$q_{3}=\dfrac{(4.444+13.33)\times(5.01\times10^{-2})^2}{9\times10^{9}\times6.2\times10^{-6}}$

$q_{3}=7.99\times10^{-7}\ C$

$q_{3}=0.8\times10^{-6}\ C$

Hence, The value of third charge is 0.8μC.
