The job that the fan is designed and built to do is to convert the electrical energy it uses into the kinetic (motion) energy of moving air.

I can't really guarantee that it accomplishes that with MOST of the electrical energy it uses, because I don't know how efficient your fan is. For example, if it's a really old fan, and one blade has the end broken off, and a lot of dust and mosquitoes have gotten into the motor, and it shakes and vibrates and makes a lot of noise when it's running, then it's converting a lot of the electrical energy into thermal energy (it gets hot when it runs) and some into sound energy too.

If you can live without the word "most" in the question, then we can assume that the fan is well designed and running like a top, and the answer is definitely choice-B .

A 3-cm high object is in front of a thin lens. The object distance is 4 cm and the image distance is –8 cm. (a) What is the foca
xenn [34]

Answer:

a) Focal length of the lens is 8 cm which is a convex lens

b) 6 cm

c) The lens is a convex lens and produces a virtual image which is upright and two times larger than the object.

Explanation:

u = Object distance =  4 cm

v = Image distance = -8 cm

f = Focal length

Lens Equation

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{-8}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{8}\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{8}{1}=-8\ cm

a) Focal length of the lens is 8 cm which is a convex lens

Magnification

m=-\frac{v}{u}\\\Rightarrow m=-\frac{-8}{4}\\\Rightarrow m=2

b) Height of image is 2×3 = 6 cm

Since magnification is positive the image upright

c) The lens is a convex lens and produces a virtual image which is upright and two times larger than the object.

A 2.5 m -long wire carries a current of 8.0 A and is immersed within a uniform magnetic field B⃗ . When this wire lies along the
leva [86]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the magnetic field be B = B₁i + B₂j + B₃k

Force = I ( L x B )  , I is current , L is length and B is magnetic field .

In the first case

force = - 2.3 j N

L = 2.5 i

puting the values in the equation above

- 2.3 j = 8 [ 2.5 i x ( B₁i + B₂j + B₃k )]

= - 20 B₃ j + 20 B₂ k

comparing LHS and RHS ,

20B₃ = 2.3

B₃ = .115

B₂ = 0

In the second case

L = 2.5 j

Force = I ( L x B )

2.3i−5.6k = 8 ( 2.5 j x (B₁i + B₂j + B₃k )

=  - 20 B₁ k + 20B₃ i

2.3i−5.6k = - 20 B₁ k + 20B₃ i

B₃ = .115

B₁ = .28

So magnetic field B = .28 i + .115 B₃

Part A

x component of B = .28 T

Part B

y component of B = 0

Part C

z component of B = .115 T .

Two small diameter, 10gm dielectric balls can slide freely on a vertical channel each carry a negative charge of 1microcoulomb.
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

The distance of separation is d = 0.092 \ m

Explanation:

The mass of the each ball is  m= 10 g  =  0.01 \ kg

 The negative charge on each ball is q_1 =q_2=q =  1 \mu C  =  1 *10^{-6} \ C

Now we are told that the lower ball is  restrained from moving this implies that the net force acting on it is  zero

Hence the gravitational force acting on the lower ball is equivalent to the electrostatic force i.e

          F =  \frac{kq_1 * q_2}{d}

=>       m* g  =  \frac{kq_1 * q_2}{d}

here k the the coulomb's  constant with a value  k = 9*10^{9} \ kg\cdot m^3\cdot s^{-4}\cdot A^2.

So  

      0.01 * 9.8  =  \frac{ 9*10^9 *[1*10^{-6} * 1*10^{-6}]}{d}

            d = 0.092 \ m

An experiment is designed to test what color of light will activate a photoelectric cell the best. The photocell is set in a cir
Natalija [7]

A photoelectric cell is an electronic device which is used to convert light energy into electric energy.The operation of this device is based on photoelectric effect.

Light of suitable frequency i.e greater or equal to threshold frequency will fall on the cathode maintained at negative potential.The electron emission will take place and these electrons are drifted towards the anode which is at positive potential.

Here,only those radiations will be capable of emitting electrons irrespective of surface barrier of metals whose energy is greater than the work function.

We know that the radiation having long wavelength has least energy as energy and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other.

Mathematically\ energy\ E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

Here h is the Planck's constant,c is the velocity of light.

Here we have been given red light and blue light.

In the visible spectrum of radiation, the red light has longer wavelength than all other colors of light.Hence blue light has more energy as it's wavelength is less as compared to red light.

Hence, the blue light will activate the most and red the least.

A block of mass m is pushed up against a spring with spring constant k until the spring has been compressed a distance x from eq
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:d

Explanation:

Spring is compressed to a distance of x from its equilibrium position

Work done by block on the spring is equal to change in elastic potential energy

i.e. Work done by block W=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

therefore spring will also done an equal opposite amount of work on the block in the absence of external force

Thus work done by spring on the block W=-\frac{1}{2}kx^2

Thus option d is correct
