A motor vehicle generates electrical power using an alternator, which employs electromagnetic induction to convert mechanical energy to electrical energy. The alternator acts as a dc generator (Example 29. 4 ). The alternator maintains and replenishes charge on the car's battery and operates headlights, radiator fans, windshield wipers, power windows, computer systems, sensors, sound systems, and other components. (a) A typical car battery provides 70 amp-hours of charge. How many coulombs is that

It has been argued that power plants should make use of off-peak hours (such as late at night) to generate mechanical energy and store it until it is needed during peak load times, such as the middle of the day. one suggestion has been to store the energy in large flywheels spinning on nearly frictionless ball-bearings. consider a flywheel made of iron, with a density of 7800 kg/m3 , in the shape of a uniform disk with a thickness of 11.6 cm .part awhat would the diameter of such a disk need to be if it is to store an amount of kinetic energy of 13.7 mj when spinning at an angular velocity of 92.0 rpm about an axis perpendicular to the disk at its center?part bwhat would be the centripetal acceleration of a point on its rim when spinning at this rate?

Diode-fare semiconductor devices. Diodes only allow a current to pass in one direction in a circuit (forward direction). The potential difference (p. D. ) at which the diode will allow a current to pass in thecircuit is called the threshold p. D. Write a plan to find the threshold p. D. And its direction to enable a current to pass. Your plan should include the following details:a hypothesisselection and justification of equipment, techniques or standard procedureshealth and safety associated with the investigationmethods for data collection and analysis to test the hypothesis including:the quantities to be measuredthe number and range of measurements to be takenhow equipment may be usedcontrol variablesbrief method for data collection analysis.

(PLEASE HELP ME OUT). A student claims when they use their space heater and hairdryer at the same time, the power for the entire house goes out. A second student says that it is not possible for the use of those two items to affect the power to the entire house. Using your knowledge of circuitry and electricity, explain why it is unlikely that the power for the entire house would go out.

A sculptor is playing absent-mindedly with a large cylindrical lump of clay on a potter's wheel. This particular wheel has wonderful balance and will turn without friction when taken out of gear. The lump of clay is a uniform cylinder of mass 23. 0 kg and radius 19. 0 cm ; the axis of the clay cylinder coincides with the axis of the wheel, and the rotational inertia of the wheel can be neglected in comparison with the rotational inertia of the clay cylinder. The artist decides to throw ball bearings of mass 182. 0 grams at the curved side wall of the turning cylinder and to watch what happens when the bearings hit and stick. Before the first throw, the cylinder is turning once every 1. 70 seconds ; when looked at from above, the cylinder is turning counterclockwise, so that the direction of the angular momentum of the cylinder is Up. The artist throws the first ball bearing horizontally, and it impacts the clay wall at an angle of 60. 0 degrees away from the normal to the curved clay surface. Once the ball bearing is stuck in the clay, the cylinder is found to be turning once every 3. 30 seconds , still turning counterclockwise. Consider the ball bearing to be traveling horizontally before impact; the ball bearing is traveling in a plane which is perpendicular to the axis of the clay cylinder and which contains the center of mass of the clay. What was the speed of the bearing before the collision?
