Why is cathode positive in leclanche cell??

Physics
1 answer:
laila [671]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Because the zinc is reluctant

Explanation:

A leclanche cell contains a conducting solution (electrolyte) of ammonium chloride, a cathode (positive terminal) of carbon, a depolarizer of manganese dioxide (oxidizer), and an anode (negative terminal) of zinc (reductant).

As the Zn2+ ions move away from the anode, leaving their electrons on its surface,

Zn → Zn2+ + 2e−

the anode becomes more negatively charged than the cathode. When the cell is connected to an external electrical circuit, the excess electrons on the zinc anode flow through the circuit to the carbon rod, the movement of electrons forming an electric current.

A 1.50-V battery supplies 0.414 W of power to a small flashlight. If the battery moves 4.93 1020 electrons between its terminals
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

2.86×10⁻¹⁸ seconds

Explanation:

Applying,

P = VI................ Equation 1

Where P = Power, V = Voltage, I = Current.

make I the subject of the equation

I = P/V................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: P = 0.414 W, V = 1.50 V

Substitute into equation 2

I = 0.414/1.50

I = 0.276 A

Also,

Q = It............... Equation 3

Where Q = amount of charge, t = time

make t the subject of the equation

t = Q/I.................. Equation 4

From the question,

4.931020 electrons has a charge of (4.931020×1.6020×10⁻¹⁹) coulombs

Q = 7.899×10⁻¹⁹ C

Substitute these value into equation 4

t =  7.899×10⁻¹⁹/0.276

t = 2.86×10⁻¹⁸ seconds

f an arrow is shot upward on the moon with velocity of 35 m/s, its height (in meters) after t seconds is given by h(t)=35t−0.83t
inysia [295]

Answer:

The velocity of the arrow after 3 seconds is 30.02 m/s.

Explanation:

It is given that,

An arrow is shot upward on the moon with velocity of 35 m/s, its height after t seconds is given by the equation:

h(t)=35t-0.83t^2

We know that the rate of change of displacement is equal to the velocity of an object.

v(t)=\dfrac{dh(t)}{dt}\\\\v(t)=\dfrac{d(35t-0.83t^2)}{dt}\\\\v(t)=35-1.66t

Velocity of the arrow after 3 seconds will be :

v(t)=35-1.66t\\\\v(t)=35-1.66(3)\\\\v(t)=30.02\ m/s

So, the velocity of the arrow after 3 seconds is 30.02 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

How was the gravitational constant G first determined
Oliga [24]
<span>In equation form, this is often expressed as follows: The constant of proportionality in this equation is G - the universal gravitation constant. The value of G was not experimentally determined until nearly a century later (1798) by Lord Henry Cavendish using a torsion balance.</span>
