Answer:

a)  W=0, b) Work is negative, c) work is positive and scientific energy variation is positive, d)     the variation of the potential enrgy is negative,

e) total work is positive

Explanation:

Work in physics is defined by the scalar scalar product of force by displacement

          W = F. dx

The bold are vectors; this can be written in the form of the mules of the quantities

          W = F dx cos θ

where θ is the angle between force and displacement.

a) The normal force is perpendicular to the inclined plane which is perpendicular to the displacement, therefore the angle is

         θ = 90         cos 90 = 0

        W=0

In conclusion the work is zero

b) The friction force opposes the displacement whereby the angle is

       θ = 180      cos 190 = -1

        W = - fr d

Work is negative

c) To calculate the change in kinetic energy we use that the work is equal to the variation of the kinetic energy

            m g sin θ  L = ΔK

this magnitude is positive since the angle is zero cos 0 = 1

how the system starts from rest ΔK = Kf -K₀=  + Kf -0

work is positive and scientific energy variation is positive

d) change in potential energy

               The potential energy is is ΔU = Uf -U₀

we fix the reference system in the bases of the plane so Uf = 0

               ΔU = -U₀

         the variation of the potential enrgy is negative

e) The total work is formed by the work of the weight component, the work of the friction force

              W_Total = W_weight - W_roce

as the body moves down

              W_Total> 0

Therefore the total work is positive

Technician A says that current is created in the stator windings of an alternator. Technician B says that the voltage regulator
drek231 [11]

Answer:

Technician A and Technician B both are right.

Explanation:

In an AC alternator,  there are two windings

1. Stator winding (stationary)

2. Rotor winding (rotating)

The current is induced in the stationary coils due to the magnetic field produced by the rotor. The DC suppy is provided to the rotor winding via slip rings and brushes and a voltage regulator precisely controls this supply to control the current flow through the rotor.

Therefore, both technicians are right.
