8 0

Answer:

<em>For a dry-cell battery to operate, oxidation will occur from the zinc anode and reduction will take place in the cathode. The most common type of cathode is a carbon graphite. Once reactants have been turned into products, the dry-cell battery will work to produce electricity.</em>

Explanation:

<em>The battery operates through electrochemical reactions called oxidation and reduction. These reactions involve the exchange of electrons between chemical species. If a chemical species loses one or more electrons, this is called oxidation. The opposite process, the gain of electrons, is called reduction.</em>

Two sheets of polarizing material are placed such that their polarizing axes are 90° to each other and no light passes through t

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Polarization In this case angle of incidence is not equal to angle of polarization, hence reflected light is partially polarized and transmitted light is also partially polarized. by reflection is explained by Brewster's law,

According to this when unpolarized light incident on glass plate at an angle is called as angle of polarizing the reflected light is plane polarized, and transmitted light is partially polarized. The plane of vibration of polarized light is having plane of vibrations perpendicular to plane of incidence.

A yoyo with a mass of m = 150 g is released from rest as shown in the figure.

avanturin [10]

(1) The linear acceleration of the yoyo is 3.21 m/s².

(2) The angular acceleration of the yoyo is 80.25 rad/s²

(3) The weight of the yoyo is 1.47 N

(4) The tension in the rope is 1.47 N.

(5) The angular speed of the yoyo is 71.385 rad/s.

<h3> Linear acceleration of the yoyo</h3>

The linear acceleration of the yoyo is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of angular momentum.

∑τ = Iα

rT - Rf = Iα

where;

I is moment of inertia
α is angular acceleration
T is tension in the rope
r is inner radius
R is outer radius
f is frictional force

rT - Rf = Iα ----- (1)

T - f = Ma -------- (2)

a = Rα

where;

a is the linear acceleration of the yoyo

Torque equation for frictional force;

$f = (\frac{r}{R} T) - (\frac{I}{R^2} )a$

solve (1) and (2)

$a = \frac{TR(R - r)}{I + MR^2}$

since the yoyo is pulled in vertical direction, T = mg $a = \frac{mgR(R - r)}{I + MR^2} \\\\a = \frac{(0.15\times 9.8 \times 0.04)(0.04 - 0.0214)}{1.01 \times 10^{-4} \ + \ (0.15 \times 0.04^2)} \\\\a = 3.21 \ m/s^2$

<h3>Angular acceleration of the yoyo</h3>

α = a/R

α = 3.21/0.04

α = 80.25 rad/s²

<h3>Weight of the yoyo</h3>

W = mg

W = 0.15 x 9.8 = 1.47 N

<h3>Tension in the rope </h3>

T = mg = 1.47 N

<h3>Angular speed of the yoyo </h3>

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 0 + 2(3.21)(1.27)

v² = 8.1534

v = √8.1534

v = 2.855 m/s

ω = v/R

ω = 2.855/0.04

ω = 71.385 rad/s

Most chemical reactions can be divided into how many main groups?

tatyana61 [14]

There is synthesis
decomposition
double displacement
single displacement
combustion
metathesis
so i guess you could say 6

What’s the dependent variable?

Nikolay [14]

Answer: number of bacteria

Explanation:

A easier way. I like to remember it is that x axis = independent and yaxis = dependent variable, but if that doesn’t help think about this

Why would the number of bacteria effect the amount of time. It doesn’t make sense because time goes on forever and nothing can change about it but time can change the number of bacteria because if you had a timer of 30 seconds and the bacteria is for example 10 and if you had a timer of one minute then the number of bacteria change because of time, if you flip it, it doesn’t make sense
