What four factors affect the magnitude of the induced emf in a coil? What four factors affect the induced emf? The induced e.m.f. is proportional to the number of turns in a coil. The speed at which the conductor moves through the magnetic field. The length of the conductor. The rate at which the conductor […]
What happens when something reaches absolute zero?
What happens when something reaches absolute zero? At zero kelvin (minus 273 degrees Celsius) the particles stop moving and all disorder disappears. Thus, nothing can be colder than absolute zero on the Kelvin scale. Physicists have now created an atomic gas in the laboratory that nonetheless has negative Kelvin values. What determines the state of […]
What best describes white light after it passes through a prism?
What best describes white light after it passes through a prism? Visible light, also known as white light, consists of a collection of component colors. Upon passage through the prism, the white light is separated into its component colors – red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet. The separation of visible light into its different […]
How many volts is 2000 watts?
What are the causes of shortage of electricity?
What are the causes of shortage of electricity? There are many causes of power failures in an electricity network. Examples of these causes include faults at power stations, damage to electric transmission lines, substations or other parts of the distribution system, a short circuit, cascading failure, fuse or circuit breaker operation. Why electricity is harmful? […]
How do you overcome lack of physical activity?
How do you overcome lack of physical activity? Social support Explain your interest in physical activity to friends and family. Ask them to support your efforts. Invite friends and family members to exercise with you. Plan social activities involving exercise. Develop new friendships with physically active people. What physical activity is the least expensive? Walking […]
Is energy released in alpha decay?
Is energy released in alpha decay? The energy released in this α decay is in the MeV range, about 106 times as great as typical chemical reaction energies, consistent with many previous discussions. Most of this energy becomes kinetic energy of the α particle (or 4He nucleus), which moves away at high speed. Is energy […]
Do polar molecules have to be asymmetrical?
Do polar molecules have to be asymmetrical? Polar molecules MUST have an asymmetrical structure to be polar, because symmetry cancels out net charge. Asymmetrical molecules are always polar. Symmetrical molecules can be polar and non-polar. Polarity is dependent on the difference in electronegativity of the molecule’s atoms and shape. What is an example of asymmetrical? […]
How many horsepower is a human?
Do longitudinal waves have nodes?
Do longitudinal waves have nodes? Longitudinal wave – a wave that is propagated in the same direction as the displacement of the transmitting medium. Node – A node is a point along a standing wave where the wave has zero amplitude. A wave center is stable at the node of the standing wave. What is […]
