The batteries do not make the charges move as much

Explanation:

The problem here is that the batteries do not make the charges move as much. The battery has a low potential different between its terminal to derive the charges and produce current to light the bulb.

A battery is an electrochemical cell that converts chemical energy to electrical energy.
In a battery when there is an electronic movement via chemical reaction.
Electrical energy is produced the other way causing electric current.
The electromotive force of the cell, is the driving force for the current in a circuit.
It is the potential difference between the two electrodes when no current is flowing.
When a circuit is functioning and the bulbs are dim, it suggests that the there is little electromotive force to move them. The charges are not moving as such.

As in the video, we apply a charge +Q to the half-shell that carries the electroscope. This time, we also apply a charge –Q to t

Andreyy89

Answer:

Explanation:

When the positively charged half shell is brought in contact with the electroscope, its needle deflects due to charge present on the shell.

When the negatively charged half shell is brought in contact with the positively charged shell , the positive and negative charge present on each shell neutralises each other .So both the shells lose their charges .The positive half shell also loses all its charges

When we separate the half shells , there will be no deflection in the electroscope because both the shell have already lost their charges and they have become neutral bodies . So they will not be able to produce any deflection in the electroscope.

A Porsche 944 Turbo has a rated engine power of 217hp . 30% of the power is lost in the drive train, and 70% reaches the wheels.

scZoUnD [109]

Explanation:

(a) It is given that two-third of weight is over the drive wheels. So, mathematically, w = $\frac{2}{3}mg$ .

Hence, maximum force is expressed as follows.

$F_{max} = \mu_{s} \times w$

$m \times a_{max} = \mu_{s} (\frac{2}{3} mg)$

Hence, the maximum acceleration is calculated as follows.

$a_{max} = \frac{2}{3} \mu_{s} \times g$

= $\frac{2}{3} \times 1.00 \times 9.8 m/s^{2}$

= 6.53 $m/s^{2}$

Hence, the maximum acceleration of the Porsche on a concrete surface where μs = 1 is 6.53 $m/s^{2}$ .

(b) Since, 30% of the power is lost in the drive train. So, the new power is 70% of $P_{max}$ .

That is, new power = $0.7 \times P_{max}$

Now, the expression for power in terms of force and velocity is as follows.

P = $F_{max} \nu$

$0.7 P_{max} = ma_{max} \nu$

Therefore, speed of the Porsche at maximum power output is as follows.

$\nu = 0.7 \times \frac{P_{max}}{ma_{max}}$

= $0.7 \times \frac{217 hp \times \frac{746 W}{1 hp}}{1500 kg \times 6.53 m/s^{2}}$

= 11.568 m/s

= 11.57 m/s

Therefore, speed of the Porsche at maximum power output is 11.57 m/s.

(c) The time taken will be calculated as follows.

time = $\frac{\text{velocity}}{\text{acceleration}}$

= $\frac{11.57 m/s}{6.53 m/s^{2}}$

= 1.77 s

Therefore, the Porsche takes 1.77 sec until it reaches the maximum power output.

James Cameron piloted a submersible craft to the bottom of the Challenger Deep, the deepest point on the ocean's floor, 11,000 m

Over [174]

Answer:

$4.1\cdot 10^8 N$

Explanation:

First of all, we need to find the pressure exerted on the sphere, which is given by:

$p=p_0 + \rho g h$

where

$p_0 =1.01\cdot 10^5 Pa$ is the atmospheric pressure

$\rho = 1000 kg/m^3$ is the water density

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the gravitational acceleration

$h=11,000 m$ is the depth

Substituting,

$p=1.01\cdot 10^5 Pa + (1000 kg/m^3)(9.8 m/s^2)(11,000 m)=1.08\cdot 10^8 Pa$

The radius of the sphere is r = d/2= 1.1 m/2= 0.55 m

So the total area of the sphere is

$A=4 \pi r^2 = 4 \pi (0.55 m)^2=3.8 m^2$

And so, the inward force exerted on it is

$F=pA=(1.08\cdot 10^8 Pa)(3.8 m^2)=4.1\cdot 10^8 N$

A space vehicle deploys its re–entry parachute when it's traveling at a vertical velocity of –150 meters/second (negative becaus

dexar [7]

Answer:

$a=5m/s^2$

Explanation:

Aceleration is a change on the velocity of the object in a given time.

For this case: the initial velocity is

$v_{1}=150m/s$

and the final velocity is :

$v_{2}=0 m/s$

so, the change in velocity is:

$\Delta v =v_{2}-v_{1}=0m/s - (-150m/s) = 150 m/s$

and the change in time , according to the problem:

$\Delta t=30s$

So, the aceleration is:

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \frac{150m/s}{30s} = 5m/s^2$
