Answer:
A) equal to the battery's terminal voltage.
Explanation:
When the capacitor is fully charged after long hours of charging , its potential becomes equal to the emf of the battery and its polarity is opposite to that of battery . Hence net emf becomes equal . The capacitor itself becomes a battery which is connected in the circuit with opposite polarity . This results in the net emf and current becoming zero . There is no charging current when the capacitor is fully charged .

Eclipses of the sun and moon are best explained by which of the following?
The irregular shape of the orbits of Earth and the moon
The rotation of Earth and the moon on their axis
The revolution of Earth and the moon around the sun
The different chemical compositions of the sun and the moon
Answer:
Eclipses of the Sun and Moon are best explained by the revolution of Earth and the Moon around the Sun.
Explanation:
An eclipse is the covering of a star by another celestial body. In everyday language, an eclipse usually means a solar or lunar eclipse.
When the sun, moon and earth are aligned (in this order), the sun is covered by the moon when viewed from a place on earth. The sunlight will then no longer reach the earth. In other words, part of the earth has been eclipsed by the moon. This is referred to as a solar eclipse.
If the earth is between the sun and the moon, and thereby prevents sunlight from reaching the moon, then there is a lunar eclipse. After all, seen from the moon, the earth covers the sun. The moon is then eclipsed by the earth.

In this circuit the battery provides 3 V, the resistance R1 is 7 Ω, and R2 is 5 Ω. What is the current through resistor R2? Give your answer in units of Amps. An Amp is 1 Coulomb of charge flowing through a cross-sectional area of the wire per second - that's a lot of charge per second and will warm up a typical wire quite a bit! Most devices have circuits with larger resistors - kLaTeX: \OmegaΩ (103 LaTeX: \OmegaΩ) and MLaTeX: \OmegaΩ (106 LaTeX: \OmegaΩ) are common.
Answer:
The current pass the [tex]R_2[/tex] is [tex]I = 0.25 A[/tex]
Explanation:
The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image
From the question we are told that
The voltage is [tex]V = 3V[/tex]
The first resistance is [tex]R_1 = 7 \Omega[/tex]
The second resistance is [tex]R_2 = 5 \Omega[/tex]
Since the resistors are connected in series their equivalent resistance is
[tex]R_{eq} = R_1 +R_2[/tex]
Substituting values
[tex]R_{eq} = 7 + 5[/tex]
[tex]R_{eq} = 12 \Omega[/tex]
Since the resistance are connected in serie the current passing through the circuit is the same current passing through [tex]R_2[/tex] which is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]I = \frac{V}{R_{eq}}[/tex]
Substituting values
[tex]I = \frac{3}{12}[/tex]
[tex]I = 0.25 A[/tex]

Explanation:
A disk with a rotational inertia of 2.5 kg-m2 and a radius 1.1 m rotates on a frictionless fixed axis perpendicular to the disk faces and through its center. A force of 7.7 N is applied tangentially to the rim. The angular acceleration of the disk is _____ rad/s2. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
Answer:
3.4 rad/sec^2
Explanation:
rotational inertia = 2.5 kg-m^2 radius = 1.1 m force = 7.7 N
t = rotational inertia * angular acceleration equation 1
also t = force * radius
therefore to calculate angular acceleration equation 1 becomes
f * r = inertia * angular acceleration hence
angular acceleration = f * r / inertia = [tex]\frac{7.7 * 1.1 }{2.5}[/tex] 8.47 / 2.5 = 3.388 ≈ 3.4 rad/sec^2

b) the angular acceleration is the derivative, in time, of the angular velocity:
[tex]\alpha=\frac{d\omega}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}[13.2t^2\frac{rad}{s^3}+2.80t\frac{rad}{s^2}]\\\\\alpha=26.4t\frac{rad}{s^3}+2.80\frac{rad}{s^2}[/tex]
what do hydroelectric plants use to generate electrical energy?
Answer:
A. falling water
Explanation:
I got it right on Edgenuity. Good luck on your quiz.
In hydroelectric plants, water falls on turbine and makes it rotate. In generator, this mechanical energy transforms into electrical energy.
What is hydroelectric power?Hydroelectric power is generated by turbines that turn the potential energy of falling or swiftly flowing water into mechanical energy, which is then used to power generators. The most popular renewable energy source in the early 21st century was hydroelectricity, which in 2019 accounted for more than 18% of the world's total power producing capacity.
Water is gathered or stored at a higher elevation during the production of hydroelectric power and then transported through substantial pipes or tunnels (penstocks) to a lower elevation; the difference between these two elevations is referred to as the head. The falling water turns turbines as it nears the bottom of the pipelines. In turn, the turbines power generators, which transfer the mechanical energy of the turbines into electricity.

Can a moving object have gravitational energy?
Answer:
It is worth noting that the higher the gravitational energy of an object moving downwards, the lower the kinetic energy, and the lower the kinetic energy of an object moving upwards, the higher its gravitational energy.
Gravitational potential energy is acquired by an object when it has been moved against a gravitational field. For example, an object raised above the surface of the Earth will gain energy, which is released if the object is allowed to fall back to the ground.
A 0.009 kg bullet fired through a door enters at 803 m/s and leaves at 617 m/s. If the door material is known to exert an average resistive force of 5620 N on bullets of this type at usual speeds, find the thickness of the door.
Answer:
The thickness of the door is 0.4230 m
Explanation:
Given;
mass of bullet, m = 0.009 kg
initial velocity of the bullet, u = 803 m/s
final velocity of the bullet, v = 617 m/s
average resistive force of the door on the bullet, F = 5620 N
Apply Newton's second law of motion;
Force exerted by the door on the bullet = Force of the moving bullet
F = ma
where;
F is applied force
m is mass
a is acceleration
Also, Force exerted by the door on the bullet = Force of the moving bullet
[tex]F =ma, \ But \ a =\frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{u-v}{t} \\\\F = \frac{m(u-v)}{t}[/tex]
where;
v is the final velocity of the bullet
u is initial velocity of the bullet
t is time
We need to calculate the time spent by the bullet before it passes through the door.
[tex]t = \frac{m(u-v)}{F} \\\\t = \frac{0.009(803-617)}{5620} = 0.0002979 \ s[/tex]
Distance traveled by the bullet within this time period = thickness of the door
This distance is equivalent to the product of average velocity and time
[tex]S = (\frac{u+v}{2}) t[/tex]
where;
s is the distance traveled
[tex]S = (\frac{u+v}{2}) t\\\\S = (\frac{803+617}{2}) 0.0002979\\\\S = 0.4230 \ m[/tex]
Therefore, the thickness of the door is 0.4230 m

Suppose you wanted to use a non-reflecting layer for radar waves to make an aircraft invisible. What would the thickness of the layer be to avoid reflecting 2 cm radar waves. (You can neglect changes of wavelength in the layer for this problem.) Would there be any problems as the aircraft turn
Answer:
the thickness of the film for destructive interference is 1 cm
Explanation:
We can assume that the radar wave penetrates the layer and is reflected in the inner part of it, giving rise to an interference phenomenon of the two reflected rays, we must be careful that the ray has a phase change when
* the wave passes from the air to the film with a higher refractive index
* the wavelength inside the film changes by the refractive index
λ = λ₀ / n
so the ratio for destructive interference is
2 n t = m λ
t = m λ / 2n
indicate that the wavelength λ = 2 cm, suppose that the interference occurs for m = 1, therefore it is thickness
t = 1 2/2 n
t = 1 / n
where n is the index of refraction of the anti-reflective layer. As they tell us not to take into account the change in wavelength when penetrating the film n = 1
t = 1 cm
So the thickness of the film for destructive interference is 1 cm
Answer:
the thickness of the film for destructive interference is 1 cm

It takes four hydrogen nuclei to create one helium nucleus in the proton–proton chain, which is the main energy source of the Sun. If a single hydrogen nucleus has a mass of 1.6726×10−27 kg and a single helium nucleus has a mass of 6.6447×10−27 kg , how much mass is converted into energy to create three helium nuclei?
Answer:
0.1371 * 10 ^ -27 kg
Explanation:
From the question number of hydrogen nuclei used to form 3 Helium nuclei = 12 ( 4 * 3 )
mass of the 12 hydrogen nuclei = 12 *( 1.6726 *10^-27) = 20.0712 * 10 ^-27
mass of single helium = 6.6447 * 10 ^-27 kg
therefore the mass of the 3 helium = 3 *( 6.6447 *10 ^-27) = 19.9341 * 10 ^-27 kg
The mass difference between the hydrogen and the helium used
= (20.0712 * 10^ -27) - (19.9341 * 10 ^-27) = 0.1371 * 10 ^ -27 kg
therefore 0.1371 * 10^-27 kg is converted into energy to create the three helium nuclei
Dogs keep themselves cool by panting, rapidly breathing air in and out. Panting results in evaporation from moist tissues of the airway and lungs, which cools the animal. Measurements show that, on a 35∘C day with a relative humidity of 50%, a 12 kg dog loses 1.0 g of water per minute if it is panting vigorously. What rate of heat loss, in watts, does this achieve?
The rate of heat loss, in watts, does this achieve is 37.66 W
Evaporation:It leads in cooling since water absorbs heat equivalent to mass times latent heat of evaporation to get converted into vapor .
So,
latent heat of evaporation of water = 2260 x 10³ J / kg or 2260 J / g
Now
in the evaporation of 1 g of water , heat lost = 2260 J

8. At temperature 15°C, aluminum rivets have a diameter of 0.501 cm, and holes drilled in a titanium sheet have a diameter of 0.500 cm. If both the aluminum rivets and the titanium sheet are cooled together, at what temperature will the rivets just fit into the appropriate holes in the titanium sheet? Use 25x10-6 (°C)-1 for the coefficient of linear expansion for aluminum, and 8.5x10-6 (°C)-1 for titanium
Answer:
The temperature is [tex]T = -106 ^oC[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The temperature is [tex]T_1 = T_t= T_a=15^oC[/tex]
The diameter is [tex]d_1 = 0.5001 cm[/tex]
The diameter of the hole [tex]d_2 = 0.500 \ cm[/tex]
The coefficient of linear expansion for aluminum is [tex]\alpha _1 = 25 *10^{-6} \ ^oC^{-1}[/tex]
The coefficient of linear expansion for titanium is [tex]\alpha _2 = 8.5 *10^{-6} \ ^o C^{-1}[/tex]
According to the law of linear expansion
[tex]d = d_o (1 + \alpha \Delta T )[/tex]
Where [tex]d_o[/tex] represents the original diameter
So for aluminum
[tex]d_a = d_1 (1 + \alpha_1 (T- T_a) )[/tex]
Where [tex]d_a[/tex] is the new diameter of aluminum
[tex]T_a[/tex] is the new temperature of the aluminum
So for titanium
[tex]d_t = d_2 (1 + \alpha_1 (T- T_t) )[/tex]
Where [tex]d_t[/tex] is the new diameter of titanium
[tex]T_t[/tex] is the new temperature of the aluminum
So for the aluminum rivets to fit into the holes
[tex]d_a = d_t[/tex]
=> [tex]d_1 (1 + \alpha_1 (T- T_a) ) = d_2 (1 + \alpha_2 (T- T_t) )[/tex]
Making T the subject of the formula
[tex]T = \frac{(d_1 - d_2 ) + (d_2 *\alpha_2 T_t) - d_1 \alpha_1 * T_a }{d_2 \alpha_2 - d_1 \alpha_1 }[/tex]
Substituting values
[tex]T = \frac{(0.501 - 0.500 ) + (0.500 *(8.5*10^{-6}) * 15) - 0.500* (25*10^{-6}) * 15 }{0.500 * (8.5 *10^{-6}) - 0.501 * (25 *10^{-6}) }[/tex]

In our usual coordinate system( +x to the right, +y up (away from the center of the Earth), +z out of the page toward you), what is the vector gravitational force on a 31 kg object sitting on the ground? (From the momentum principle you can conclude that a force of the same magnitude is exerted upward by the ground on the object if the momentum isn't changing. In Chapter 4 we'll see more about the origin of this force.)
Answer:
The vector gravitational force is [tex]W = 303.8\ N( -y)[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the object is [tex]m = 31 \ kg[/tex]
The acceleration due to gravity experienced by the object is [tex]g = 9.8 m/s^2[/tex]
Generally the vector gravitational force on the object is mathematically represented as
[tex]W = 31 * 9.8[/tex]
[tex]W = 303.8\ N (-y)[/tex]
The -y indicates that the direction of the force is towards the center of the earth
