How are chargeable cells different from ordinary dry cells

1 answer:

6 0

Ordinary cells can convert chemical energy to electrical energy only, but rechargeable cells can also store electrical energy into chemical energy and vice versa. You will study more about it in your higher classes. secondary cells can be recharged and used again but dry cells cannot be recharged.

A piston-cylinder chamber contains 0.1 m3 of 10 kg R-134a in a saturated liquid-vapor mixture state at 10 °C. It is heated at co

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

(A) 10132.5Pa

(B)531kJ of energy

Explanation:

This is an isothermal process. Assuming ideal gas behaviour then the relation P1V1 = P2V2 holds.

Given

m = 10kg = 10000g, V1 = 0.1m³, V2 = 1.0m³

P1 = 101325Pa. M = 102.03g/mol

P2 = P1 × V1 /V2 = 101325 × 0.1 / 1 = 10132.5Pa

(B) Energy is transfered by the r134a in the form of thw work done in in expansion

W = nRTIn(V2/V1)

n = m / M = 10000/102.03 = 98.01mols

W = 98.01 × 8.314 × 283 ×ln(1.0/0.1)

= 531kJ.

what is a possible unit for the product VI, where V is the potential difference across a resistor and I is the current through t

liq [111]

Recall this equation for a device in a direct current circuit:
P = IV
P is the power dissipated by the device, I is the current through the device, and V is the voltage drop of the device.

If we choose to use the ampere as the unit of current and the volt as the unit of voltage, then the product of the current and the voltage will give the power with watts as the unit.

The drawing shows three identical springs hanging from the ceiling. Nothing is attached to the first spring, whereas a 4.50-N bl

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

a. 30 N / m

b. 9.0 N

Explanation:

Given that

Unstretched length of the spring, $L_o$ = 20.0cm = 0.2m

a) When the mass of 4.5N is hanging from the second spring, then extended length Is

$L_1$ = 35.0cm = 0.35m

So, the change in spring length when mass hangs is

$x = L_1 - L_o$

= (0.35 - 0.20) m

= 0.15m

As spring are identical

Let us assume that the spring constant be "k", so at equilibrium

Restoring Force on spring = Block weightage

kx = W = 4.50

$k= \frac{4.50}{x} = \frac{4.50}{0.15}$

= 30 N / m

b) Now for the third spring, stretched the length of spring is

$L_2$ = 50cm = 0.5m

So, the change in spring length is

$x'= L_2 - L_o$

= (0.5-0.20)m

= 0.30m

At equilibrium,

Restoring Force on spring = Block weightage

Now using all mentioned and computed values in above,

$W'= kx'$

= 30(0.3)

= 9.0 N

A submarine periscope uses two totally reflecting 45-45-90 prisms with total internal reflection on the sides adjacent to the 45

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer

Given,

Periscope uses 45-45-90 prisms with total internal reflection adjacent to 45°.

refractive index of water, n_a = 1.33

refractive index of glass, n_g = 1.52

When the light enters the water, water will act as a lens and when we see the object from the periscope the object shown is farther than the usual distance.
