Explain how polarization of a cell increases the cell's internal resistance.

2.
Answer:
Explanation: The chemical action that occurs in the cell while the current is flowing causes hydrogen bubbles to form on the surface of the anode. This action is called POLARIZATION. Some hydrogen bubbles rise to the surface of the electrolyte and escape into the air, some remain on the surface of the anode. If enough bubbles remain around the anode, the bubbles form a barrier that increases internal resistance. When the internal resistance of the cell increases, the output current is decreased and the voltage of the cell also decreases.
A cell that is heavily polarized has no useful output. There are several methods to prevent polarization or to depolarize the cell.
One method uses a vent on the cell to permit the hydrogen to escape into the air. A disadvantage of this method is that hydrogen is not available to reform into the electrolyte during recharging. This problem is solved by adding water to the electrolyte, such as in an automobile battery. A second method is to use material that is rich in oxygen, such as manganese dioxide, which supplies free oxygen to combine with the hydrogen and form water.
A third method is to use a material that will absorb the hydrogen, such as calcium. The calcium releases hydrogen during the charging process. All three methods remove enough hydrogen so that the cell is practically free from polarization.
LOCAL ACTION
When the external circuit is removed, the current ceases to flow, and, theoretically, all chemical action within the cell stops. However, commercial zinc contains many impurities, such as iron, carbon, lead, and arsenic. These impurities form many small electrical cells within the zinc electrode in which current flows between the zinc and its impurities. Thus, the chemical action continues even though the cell itself is not connected to a load.
Local action may be prevented by using pure zinc (which is not practical), by coating the zinc with mercury, or by adding a small percentage of mercury to the zinc during the manufacturing process. The treatment of the zinc with mercury is called amalgamating (mixing) the zinc. Since mercury is many times heavier than an equal volume of water, small particles of impurities weighing less than mercury will float to the surface of the mercury. The removal of these impurities from the zinc prevents local action. The mercury is not readily acted upon by the acid. When the cell is delivering current to a load, the mercury continues to act on the impurities in the zinc. This causes the impurities to leave the surface of the zinc electrode and float to the surface of the mercury. This process greatly increases the storage life of the cell.

You have to move your 100 N couch before a delivery company drops off your new one. Unfortunately your roommate is passed out on it. The coefficient of friction between the couch and floor is .43. It takes 250 N of force to get the couch moving. a) How much does your roommate weigh in Newton’s? b) After you get the couch moving it only takes 200 N to keep it moving at a constant speed, what is the coefficient of kinetic friction?
Answer:
a) Weight of Roommate = 481.4 N
b) μk = 0.34
Explanation:
a)
The force required to move the couch must be equal to the force of friction:
F = frictional force
F = μW
W = F/μ
where,
W = Total Weight of Couch and Roommate
F = Force Required start to move couch = 250 N
μ = coefficient of static friction between couch and floor = 0.43
Therefore,
[tex]W = \frac{250 N}{0.43}\\\\W = 581.4 N[/tex]
So, the total weight is given as:
W = Weight of Couch + Weight of Roommate
Weight of Roommate = W - Weight of Couch
Weight of Roommate = 581.4 N - 100 N
Weight of Roommate = 481.4 N
b)
Now, the force required to keep the couch moving can be given as equal to the kinetic friction force:
F = kinetic friction
F = μk*W
μk = F/W
where,
μk = coefficient of kinetic friction = ?
F = Force required to keep the couch moving = 200 N
Therefore,
μk = 200 N/581.4 N
μk = 0.34

Explanation:
A ray moving in water at 55.5 deg
enters plastic, where it bends to
48.7 deg. What is the index of
refraction for the plastic?
( water n = 1.33, Air n = 1.00 )
Answer:
Refractive index of the plastic = 1.46
Explanation:
By Snell's law,
[tex]\frac{\text{sin}\theta _{2} }{\text{sin}\theta _{1}}=\frac{n_1}{n_2}[/tex]
Here, [tex]\theta _1[/tex] = Angle of incidence in medium 1 (Plastic)
[tex]\theta_2[/tex] = Angle of refraction in medium 2 (Water)
[tex]n_1[/tex] = Refractive index of medium 1 (Plastic)
[tex]n_2[/tex] = Refractive index of medium 2 (Water)
By substituting values in the formula,
[tex]\frac{\text{sin}(48.7)}{\text{sin}(55.5)}=\frac{1.33}{n_2}[/tex]
[tex]n_2=\frac{1.33\times \text{sin}(55.5)}{\text{sin}(48.7)}[/tex]
= 1.46
Therefore, refractive index of the plastic = 1.46

1b A farmhand pushes 20 ㎏ bale of hay 4m across the floor of the barn if she exerts a horizontal force of 60 N on the hay, how much work is done? (5 pts)
All parts are 4 points each
Answer:
1a
[tex]W = 242.5 \ J[/tex]
1b
[tex]W = 240 \ J[/tex]
Explanation:
Considering question a
From the question we are told that
The mass of the toy baby stroller is [tex]m = 5.0 \ kg[/tex]
The distance covered is [tex]d = 7.0\ m[/tex]
The force the girl applies on the handle is [tex]F = 40 \ N[/tex]
The angle at which this force is applied is [tex]\theta = 30^o[/tex]
Generally the workdone is mathematically represented as
[tex]W = F_x * d[/tex]
Here [tex]F_x[/tex] is the force along the horizontal axis , this is mathematically represented as
[tex]F_x = F cos (\theta )[/tex]
=> [tex]F_x = 40 * cos(30 )[/tex]
=> [tex]F_x = 34.64 \ N[/tex]
So
[tex]W = 34.64 * 7[/tex]
=> [tex]W = 242.5 \ J[/tex]
Considering question b
From the question we are told that
The mass of the toy baby stroller is [tex]m = 20 \ kg[/tex]
The distance covered is [tex]d = 4 \ m[/tex]
The force the girl applies on the handle is [tex]F = 60 \ N[/tex]
Generally the workdone is mathematically represented as
[tex]W = F * d[/tex]
=> [tex]W = 60 * 4[/tex]
=> [tex]W = 240 \ J[/tex]
How fast, in meters per second, does an observer need to approach a stationary sound source in order to observe a 7.1 % increase in the emitted frequency?

A ball of mass 4kg moving with a velocity of 20m/s collides with another ball of mass 15kg moving with a velocity of 15m/s in the same direction. Calculate the velocity of the 5kg ball if the collision is perfectly inelastic.
Answer:
velocity = 16.05 m/s
Explanation:
inelastic collision formula:
m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1 + m2)v
m1 = 4kg
u1 = 20m/s
m2 = 15kg
u2 = 15m/s
find v ?
m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1 + m2)v
(4×20) + (15×15) = (4+15)v
80 + 225 = 19v
305 = 19v
19v = 305
v = 305/19
v = 16.05 m/s

Answer:
The minimum coefficient of static friction required, µ = 0.10
Note. The question is incomplete. The complete question is given below:
While hauling a log in the back of a flatbed truck, a driver is pulled over by the state police. Although the log cannot roll sideways, the police claim that the log could have slid out the back of the truck when accelerating from rest. The driver claims that the truck could not possibly accelerate at the level needed to achieve such an effect. Regardless, the police write a ticket anyway and now the driver court date is approaching.
The log has a mass of m = 929 kg; the truck has a mass of M = 8850 kg. According to the truck manufacturer, the truck can accelerate from 0 to 55 mph in 23.0 seconds, but this does not account for the additional mass of the log. Calculate the minimum coefficient of static friction μs needed to keep the log in the back of the truck.
Explanation:
First, velocity in mph is converted to m/s
1 mph = 0.447 m/s
55 mph ≈ 24.6 m/s
The acceleration of the empty truck is a = v/t = 24.6 / 23 = 1.07 m/s²
Force that can be generated by the truck, F = ma
F = 8850kg * 1.07 m/s² = 9469.5 N
However, with the added mass of the log on it, the acceleration of the truck will become;
a = F / m = 9469.5 N / (8550+929)kg = 0.97 m/s²
Frictional force between the log and the truck = 0.97 m/s² * 929 kg = 901.13 N
Normal reaction on the truck due to the weight of the log, R = mg
R = 929 kg * 9.8m/s² = 9104.2 N
Coefficient of static friction, µ = F/R
µ = 901.13/9104.2
µ = 0.098 ≈ 0.10
Therefore, the minimum static friction required is µ = 0.10

identical spheres are dropped from a height of 100 m above the surfaces of Planet X and Planet Y. The speed of the spheres as a function of time is recorded for each planet in the graph
above. Which planet exerts the greater force of gravity on the sphere, and what evidence supports this conclusion?
A Planet X because its line has the greater area under it.
Planet X, because its line has the greater slope
Planet Y. because it falls for the smaller amount of time
Planet Y because the object's final speed is greater
Answer:
B. Planet X, because its line has the greater slope.
Explanation:
In a speed graph, acceleration is slope. A greater slope means a greater acceleration. According to Newton's 2nd law (F=mg), a greater acceleration means a greater force.
Planet X exerts the greater force of gravity on the sphere, because its line has the greater slope. Hence option B is correct.
What is Gravitational Force ?Gravitational force is force of attraction between two masses. Gravitational force(F) between two bodies is directly proportion to the product of masses(m₁,m₂) of two bodies and inversely proportional to square of distance(r) between them. mathematically it is written as,
F ∝ m₁.m₂
F ∝ 1/r²
F = G m₁,m₂÷r²
where G is gravitational constant, whose value is 6.6743 × 10⁻¹¹ m³ kg-1s⁻².
Force is expressed in Newton N in SI unit. its dimensions are [M¹L¹T⁻²].
This is analogous with coulomb's law which gives force between two charges.
if a planet has greater gravitational force(force of gravity), then body falls with greater speed as compare to other planet which is having less force of gravity. we can see in case of planet X there is greater speed as compare to plane Y in short time. Hence option B is correct.

A 300 g bird flying along at 6.0 m/s sees a 10 g insect heading straight toward it with a speed of 30 m/s. the bird opens its mouth wide and enjoys a nice lunch. What is the bird's speed immediately after swallowing?
Answer:
6.77m/s
Explanation:
Using the law of conservation of momentum
m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v
m1 and m2 are the masses of the object
u1 and u2 are the velocities before collision
v is the final collision
Given
m1 = 300g = 0.3kg
u1 = 6.0m/s
m2 = 10g = 0.01kg
u2 = 30m/s
Required
The bird's speed immediately after swallowing v
Substitute the given values into the formula
m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v
0.3(6) + 0.01(30) = (0.3+0.01)v
1.8+0.3 = 0.31v
2.1 = 0.31v
v = 2.1/0.31
v = 6.77m/s
Hence the bird's speed immediately after swallowing is 6.77m/s

Answer:
The cantaloupe has a speed of 117.6 m/s
Explanation:
Free Fall Motion
It occurs when an object falls under the sole influence of gravity. Any object that is being acted upon solely by the force of gravity is said to be in a state of free fall. Free-falling objects do not face air resistance.
If an object is dropped from rest in a free-falling motion, it falls with a constant acceleration called the acceleration of gravity, which value is [tex]g = 9.8 m/s^2[/tex].
The final velocity of a free-falling object after a time t is given by:
vf=g.t
The cantaloupe has been dropped from rest. We are required to find the speed after t=12 seconds.
Calculate the final speed:
vf=9.8 * 12 = 117.6 m/s
The cantaloupe has a speed of 117.6 m/s
