If two conductors are not touching but are close to each other, a large enough voltage will cause an _________________ to occur between the conductors.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Electrical breakdown.

Explanation:

When two conductors are relatively close enough, and have a very large voltage between them, it can lead to a Dielectric breakdown. A dielectric breakdown occurs when an insulator is subjected to a high enough voltage, suddenly becomes an electrical conductor and electric current flows through it. The air between the conductors is the insulator that breaks down, leading to an electrical discharge arc to flow between the two conductors. This electrical breakdown can cause catastrophic failure of electrical equipment, and fire hazards.

When we get out of the bed on a very cold morning, we feel that the air of the room is cold. But when we come back after staying out for some time, we feel that the air of the same room is warmer. Why is this?

Answers

Answer:

This is because the air outside is always cooler than the air inside, so after staying outside your body adapts to the cold air, when you come back inside, the cold air is still in you which makes the room seem warmer.

The weight of an object is the product of its mass, mmm, and the acceleration of gravity, ggg (where g=9.8 m/s2g=9.8 m/s2). If an object’s mass is m=10. kgm=10. kg, what is its weight? Express the weight with the appropriate units.

Answers

Answer:

98 N

Explanation:

Given that

Mass m = 10 kg

Acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8m/s^2

Where the weight of an object is the product of its mass, and the acceleration of gravity. That is,

W = mg

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

W = 10 × 9.8

W = 98 N

Therefore, the weight of the object is 98 Newton


The weightlifter's internal store of energy decreased when he lifted the bar.
The bar's internal store of energy increased by a smaller amount.
Explain why.

Answers

Answer:

The energy returns to the weightlifter's muscles, where it is dissipated as heat.

Explanation:

The energy returns to the weightlifter's muscles, where it is dissipated as heat. As long as the weightlifter controls the weight's descent, their muscles are acting as an overdamped shock absorber, as if the weight were sitting on a piston containing very thick fluid, slowly compressing it downward (and slightly heating up the fluid in the process). Since muscles are complicated biological systems and not simple pistons, they require metabolic energy to maintain tension throughout the controlled descent, so the weightlifter feels like they're putting energy into the weight, even though the weight's gravitational potential energy is being converted into heat within the lifter's muscles.

Answers

Answer:

Technician B

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is possessed when it is in motion. It is given by :

[tex]K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]

m is mass, v is speed

The kinetic energy is directly proportional to its speed. It does not depend on its weight. It would mean that Technician B is correct as he says that "the kinetic energy of a moving vehicle is directly proportional to its speed".

The earth's orbit is oval in shape. Explain how the magnitude of the gravitational force between the earth and the sun changes as the earth moves
from position 'A' to 'B' as shown in the figure.​

Answers

Answer:

magnitude of gravitational force between the Earth and the Sun at B is greater than that at A

Explanation:

Formula of gravitational force:

F = GMm/r^2

(r is the distance between 2 objects)

We see that r(B) < r(A) since at B, the Earth is closer to the Sun than at A

According to the Formula, the smaller r is, the greater F is

So, F(B) > F(A)

What would happen to an object that is moving towards the right at a constant speed when you put a force on it towards the left?

Answers

Answer & Explanation:

If the resultant force is zero, a moving object towards the right will stay at the same speed. If there is no resultant force then a system is said to be in equilibrium.

If the resultant force is not zero, due to a force towards left of a moving object will slow down - depending on the direction of the resultant force:

it will speed up if the resultant force is in the same direction as the object is moving

it will slow down if the resultant force is in the opposite direction

Please note that the object could also change direction, for example if the resultant force acts at an angle.

For 1983 through 1989, the per capita consumption
of chicken in the U.S. increased at a
rate that was approximately linear. In 1983,
the per capita consumption was 37.1 pounds,
and in 1989 it was 50 pounds.
Write a linear model for per capita consumption
of chicken in the U.S. Let t represent
time in years, where t = 3 represents
1983. Let y represent chicken consumption in
pounds.

Answers

Answer:

y = 43.55 + 2.15t

Explanation:

We were told that in 1983, the per capita consumption was 37.1 pounds, and in 1989 it was 50 pounds.

If we assume t = 0 corresponds to year 1980. Then, for 1983 it will be t = 3 and for 1989,it will be t = 9.

Thus, expressing the information as ordered pairs, we have; (3,37. 1) and (9,50).

Let us now find slope of the linear function:

m1 = (y2 - y1)/(t2 - t1)

m1 = (50 - 37.1)/(9 - 3)

m1 = 2.15

So, we can find the linear equation as;

y - 37.1 = 2.15(t - 3)

y = 37.1 + 2.15t - 6.45

y = 43.55 + 2.15t

Objects fall near the surface of the earth with a constant downward acceleration of 10 m/s2 . At a certain instant an object is moving upward at 20 m/s. What is its velocity 2 sec later?

Answers

Answer:

After 2 seconds the velocity of the object is 0 m/s.

Explanation:

The velocity at 2 seconds later can be calculated as follows:

[tex] V_{f} = V_{0} - gt [/tex]

Where:

[tex]V_{f}[/tex]: is the velocity at 2 seconds

[tex]V_{0}[/tex]: is the initial velocity = 20 m/s

g: is the gravity = 10 m/s²

t: is the time = 2 s

Hence, the final velocity is:

[tex] V_{f} = V_{0} - gt = 20 m/s - 10 m/s^{2}*2 s = 0 m/s [/tex]

This value (0 m/s) means that the object has reached the maximum height.

Therefore, after 2 seconds the velocity of the object is 0 m/s.

When a fraction equals zero

5.1    When a fraction equals zero ...

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

 -k•(x2-2)

 ————————— • 2 = 0 • 2

     2    

Now, on the left hand side, the  2  cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :

  -k  •  (x2-2)  = 0

Theory - Roots of a product :

5.2    A product of several terms equals zero.  

When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.  

We shall now solve each term = 0 separately  

In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product  

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

5.3      Solve  :    -k = 0  

Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) :  k = 0

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

5.4      Solve  :    x2-2 = 0  

Add  2  to both sides of the equation :  

                     x2 = 2

 

When two things are equal, their square roots are equal. Taking the square root of the two sides of the equation we get:  

                     x  =  ± √ 2  

The equation has two real solutions  

These solutions are  x = ± √2 = ± 1.4142

Explanation:

The expression for the power is

        P = W / t

the job

       W = F d

   

we substitute

      P = F d / t

      P = F. v

We apply this equation to our case where the velocity is

 v = (5 i + 3j + 6k) m / s

and the force is

 F = (10i + 10j +20 k) N

we substitute in the power equation, remember that the scalar product of the unit vectors is

i.i = j.j = k.k = 1 and the other products are zero

    P = 10 5 + 10 3 + 20 6

    P = 200 W

A racecar traveling at a velocity of 18.5 m/s, accelerates at a rate of 2.47 m/s2 and covers a distance of 79.78 m. Determine the final velocity of the racecar.

Answers

Answer:

The final velocity of the race car is 27.14 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the race car, u = 18.5 m/s

acceleration of the race car, a = 2.47 m/s²

distance covered by the race car, s = 79.78 m

Apply the following kinematic equation to determine the final velocity of the race car.

v² = u² + 2as

v² = (18.5)² + 2(2.47)(79.78)

v² = 736.363

v = √736.363

v = 27.14 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the racecar is 27.14 m/s
