(31-15 = 16).

Explanation:

the element phosphorus (P) has an atomic number of 15 and a mass number of 31. Therefore, an atom of phosphorus has 15 protons, 15 electrons, and 16 neutrons

A 10 µf capacitor is charged to 108 v and is then connected across a 328 ω resistor. what is the initial charge on the capacitor
valina [46]
The capacitance is defined as the maximum charge stored in a capacitor, Q, divided by the voltage applied, V:
C= \frac{Q}{V}

The capacitor is initially charged with the battery of 108 V, so the the initial charge on the capacitor can be found by re-arranging the previous formula:
Q=CV=(10 \mu F)(108 V)=1080 \mu C

A 1.5m wire carries a 3 A current when a potential difference of 86 V is applied. What is the resistance of the wire?
Iteru [2.4K]
We know, R = V / I
Here, V = 86 V
I = 3 A

Substitute their values, 
R = 86 / 3
R = 28.67 Ohm

In short, Your Answer would be 28.67 Ohms

Hope this helps!

Give one example of a thermodynamic cycle that does not account for the carnot efficiency.
Arturiano [62]

Thermo-Electrochemical converter (UTEC) is a thermodynamic cycle that does not account for the Carnot Efficiency.

The Carnot cycle is a hypothetical cycle that takes no account of entropy generation. It is assumed that the heat source and heat sink have perfect heat transfer. The working fluid also remains in the same phase, as opposed to the Rankine cycle, in which the fluid changes phase. A practical thermodynamic cycle, such as the Rankine cycle, would achieve at most 50% of the Carnot cycle efficiency under similar heat source and heat sink temperatures.

<h3>What is Thermo-Electrochemical converter?</h3>

In a two-cell structure, a thermo-electrochemical converter converts potential energy difference during hydrogen oxidation and reduction to heat energy.

It employs the Ericsson cycle, which is less efficient than the Carnot cycle. In a closed system, it converts heat to electrical energy. There are no external input or output devices.

This means there will be no mechanical work to be done, as well as no exhaust. As a result, Carnot efficiency is not taken into account in this cycle. Carnot efficiency is accounted for by other options such as turbine and engine.

One end of a string is fixed. An object attached to the other end moves on a horizontal plane with uniform circular motion of ra
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

If both the radius and frequency are doubled, then the tension is increased 8 times.

Explanation:

The radial acceleration (a_{r}), measured in meters per square second, experimented by the moving end of the string is determined by the following kinematic formula:

a_{r} = 4\pi^{2}\cdot f^{2}\cdot R (1)

Where:

f - Frequency, measured in hertz.

R - Radius of rotation, measured in meters.

From Second Newton's Law, the centripetal acceleration is due to the existence of tension (T), measured in newtons, through the string, then we derive the following model:

\Sigma F = T = m\cdot a_{r} (2)

Where m is the mass of the object, measured in kilograms.

By applying (1) in (2), we have the following formula:

T = 4\pi^{2}\cdot m\cdot f^{2}\cdot R (3)

From where we conclude that tension is directly proportional to the radius and the square of frequency. Then, if radius and frequency are doubled, then the ratio between tensions is:

\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}} = \left(\frac{f_{2}}{f_{1}} \right)^{2}\cdot \left(\frac{R_{2}}{R_{1}} \right) (4)

\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}} = 4\cdot 2

\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}} = 8

If both the radius and frequency are doubled, then the tension is increased 8 times.
