The question is incomplete. It comes with a set of answer choices.


These are the answer choices:


Alex observes it as 10 m/s, and his friend observes it as less than 10 m/s.


Alex observes it as less than 10 m/s, and his friend observes it as 10 m/s.


Both Alex and his friend observe it as 10 m/s.


Both Alex and his friend observe it as less than 10 m/s.



Answer: Both Alex and his friend observe it as 10 m/s.


Justification:


1) The speed is relative to the frame of reference.


2) It is said that the both Alex and his friend are standing still.


3) Then, the speed they both see is the same, 10 m/s, respect the Earth (where they are standing still).


Of course, Alex is watching the ball moving away and his friend is seing it approaching, but it is not relevant for the question, as it deals with the speed which is only about magnitude, not direction.

Jeff puts on a leather jacket over his sweater. The sweater becomes negatively charged. Which statements about Jeff’s situation
Vinil7 [7]

Following statements are true
(i) The leather jacket has a lower tendency to attract electrons than sweater.
When the sweater and the leather jacket are in contact with each other, the leather jacket loses electrons and thus becomes positively charged. the electrons are gained by the sweater and it becomes negatively charges.
The opposite charge attract. so the sweater ( negatively charged) will attract protons ( positively charged) . The leather jacket ( positively charged) will attract the electrons ( negatively charged).

Liam throws a water balloon horizontally at 8.2 m/s out of a window 18 m from the ground.
Alecsey [184]

Time taken by the water balloon to reach the bottom will be given as

h = \frac{1}{2} gt^2

here we know that

h = 18 m

g = 9.8 m/s^2

now by the above formula

18 = \frac{1}{2}*9.8* t^2

18 = 4.9 t^2

t = 1.92 s

now in the same time interval we can say the distance moved by it will be

d = v_x * t

d = 8.2 * 1.92 = 15.7 m

so it will fall at a distance 15.7 m from its initial position

In a series circuit, a generator (1300 Hz, 12.0 V) is connected to a 14.0- resistor, a 4.40-μF capacitor, and a 6.00-mH inductor
klemol [59]

Answer:

(a) 2.8 V

(b) 5.6 V

(c) 9.8 V

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of the generator (f) = 1300 Hz)

Terminal voltage (V) =12.0 V

Resistance of resistor (R) = 14.0 Ω

Capacitance of capacitor (C) = 4.40 μF = 4.40 × 10⁻⁶ F

Inductance of the inductor (L) = 6.00 mH = 6.00 × 10⁻³ H

In order to find the voltages across each, we first need to find the reactance and impedance.

Reactance of the inductor is given as:

X_L=2\pi f L\\\\X_L=2\times 3.14\times 1300\times 6.00\times 10^{-3}\\\\X_L=49\ \Omega

Reactance of the capacitor is given as:

X_C=\frac{1}{2\pi fC}\\\\X_C=\frac{1}{2\times 3.14\times 1300\times 4.40\times 10^{-6}}\\\\X_C =28\ \Omega

Now, impedance is given as:

Z=\sqrt{X_L^2+X_C^2}\\\\Z=\sqrt{(49)^2+(28)^2}\\\\Z=\sqrt{3185}=56.4\ \Omega

Current across the circuit is given as:

I=\frac{V}{Z}\\\\I=\frac{12}{56.4}=0.2\ A

As resistor, capacitor and inductor are connected in series, the current across each of them is same and equal to total current in the circuit.

(a)

Voltage across the resistor is given as:

V_R=IR\\\\V_R=0.2\times 14=2.8\ V

Therefore, the voltage across resistor is 2.8 V.

(b)

Voltage across the capacitor is given as:

V_C=IX_C\\\\V_C=0.2\times 28=5.6\ V

Therefore, the voltage across the capacitor is 5.6 V.

(c)

Voltage across the inductor is given as:

V_L=IX_L\\\\V_L=0.2\times 49=9.8\ V

Therefore, the voltage across the inductor is 9.8 V.

What is the formula for calculating the efficiency of a heat engine? Efficiency = StartFraction T Subscript h Baseline minus T S
Anna007 [38]

Efficiency of heat engine is determined by the ratio of difference in temperature of cold from hot reservoir to the temperature of hot reservoir over temperature of hot reservoir.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

Efficiency is defined as the output from the input. So it is the ratio of energy output to the energy input. In case of temperature, it is the change in temperature from hot reservoir to cold reservoir with the overall hot reservoir temperature.

Efficiency =\frac{T_{h} -T_{c} }{T_{h} }

Thus, option A is the most suitable as the heat will be transferred from high temperature to low temperature. So the hot reservoir will be releasing the energy. So the conversion of hot reservoir temperature to cool reservoir temperature is defined as the efficiency. Thus, option A is the most suitable.
