Caleb misjudges while parking, and bumps his car into a brick wall at 3 mph. his bumper brings the car to a stop in about 2 inch

es. we wish to estimate the force the wall exerts on the car during this bump. note: it is very useful to learn to estimate the answers to science and engineering problems quickly, without doing detailed calculations. to do this, estimate the weight of a typical car, and make the simple assumption that the force (and thus the acceleration) is constant.

An electric motor is connected to a battery. The current flows through brushes to a commutator ring, which is attached to a elec
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Commutator is a ring which reverse the direction of current in AC circuit so that the coil connected to it will continuous to move in the same direction.

Explanation:

In motors there exist a coil which is rotated due to torque of magnetic field when current flow through it. Since AC current is used to run the motor so we know that AC current changes its direction after half cycle.

So here commutator plays an important role to reverse the direction of current after every half cycle so that the current goes in same direction always into the coil.

This will produce a constant direction torque on the coil so that it will rotate in same sense always.

So commutator role is to provide same direction current to the coil by reversing its direction after every half cycle

While a balloon is being filled, if the temperature of the air in the balloon decreases, what happens to its volume?
Ugo [173]
Why is it always balloons?
anyways so the balloon volume goes somewhere else when it shrinks because the balloon is losing air i think

Which term describes the number of crests that pass a point in a given amount of time
joja [24]
The term is frequency.

The frequency is the number of vibrations per unit of time or the number of waves that passes a point per unit of time.

Every crest (and every trough) represents a pass of the wave so you can count the number of crests in an intervavl of time to find the frequency as the number of crests divided by the time elapsed.
