That was Tycho Brahe, and I thought it was actually more years than that.

Describe the differences and similarities between an electromotor and a generator.
Effectus [21]

Differences:

An electrical motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy,where as a generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.

The principle of a electric motor if there is a change of the magnetic field across a conductor  electrons are forced to move in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field,where as in a generator if a charge is moving in a magnetic field, a force acts on the charge in a direction perpendicular to both the velocity of the charge and the magnetic field.

similarities:

Both electric motor and generator work on the magnetic effects of electric current.

Both have the armatures to rotate the loop.

A uniform drawbridge must be held at a 37 ? angle above the horizontal to allow ships to pass underneath. The drawbridge weighs
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Let T be tension in the horizontal cable .

Taking torque about hinge of weight and tension

45000 x 7 x cos37 = 3.5 sin 37 x T

T = 119431 N

b ) If R be the reaction force on the hinge

R sin 37 = 45000 ( vertical force balancing each other )

R = 74775 N

c ) The direction of R will be along the bridge

d ) Moment of inertia of bridge

I = Ml² / 3 = (45000 / 9.8 )  x 14² / 3

= 300000.

When cable breaks , the weight creates a torque about the hinge will creates angular acceleration

Torque by weight about the hinge

= 45000 x 7 x cos 37

= 251570

angular acceleration = torque / moment of inertia

= 251570 / 300000

= .84 radian / s²

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

Light is a form of electro-magnetic waves. This light wave has distinct range of wavelength that allows it to form different colors of light. This means that the color of the light produces depending on the amount of wavelength it comprises.

The visible light ranges from Violet to Red, and this is observed as different colors when each of these electromagnetic waves strikes our eyes at a certain angle. The violet light has the shortest wavelength of about 410 nm, where the red light has the highest wavelength of about 650 nm.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).
