Understanding Current Sense in Circuits: The Reversal Dilemma
The current always flows from +ve terminal to -ve. The negetive sign just indicates that current is positive in the reverse direction (in other words it is flowing in the reverse direction). Since ib is given as -2A it is saying that the current is 2A in the reverse direction (which is indicated...- Abhilash H N

Burning fossil fuels math problem
The conversion is done right, And it was necessary to do that. It doesn't matter if the answer comes out in years or seconds, it would be the same. But since the textbook has the answer in terms of seconds it is better to do it that way. Now given that human kind consumes 5×1014MJ per...- Abhilash H N

Undergrad Change in internal energy at constant pressure?
The given equation won't help... As one can see it is related to internal energy change at constant volume... The equation for enthalpy change in terms of internal energy change and work done might help. i.e. ΔH=ΔU+PΔV where P - the value of constant pressure applied ΔV - change in...- Abhilash H N

Which Iceboat Finishes with Greater Momentum?
Equating the kinetic energies was a right choice... But the simplification was a bit confusing... This is where it went wrong. It has to be √2vheavier=vlighter... Other than that everything is fine, check your calculations and you will be on your way... Regards- Abhilash H N

What role do the 2 lone electron pairs in H2O have?
There are lone pairs, right on top of oxygen molecule. The molecule is tetrahedral. But the presence of lone pair of electrons does not have any effect on the polarity of oxygen. However they play a role in co-ordination chemistry. See the attachment... Regards.- Abhilash H N

Proof: Infinitely Many Rational Square Roots of Natural Numbers
Try going like this... There are two possibilities: 1.There are infinitely many natural numbers n where the square root of n is rational. 2.There are finite natural number whose roots are rational. If things were go as 1. then the proof is complete. If things were to go as 2. then we have to...- Abhilash H N

Undergrad Can Lasers Be Used as a Viable Energy Source Despite Their High Power Output?
Well to get a laser beam you have to supply energy right? If laser is used as an energy source you are getting nothing but the same energy you had supplied, practically lesser perhaps...- Abhilash H N

Copper's Valence Electrons: How Can It Lose More Than One?
The general electronic configuration of 3d elements is 3d1-104s1-2. As one moves gradually along the group the electrons get filled to the 3d orbitals. So by that condition copper should have the electronic configuration as 3d94s2. But since completely filled orbitals are more stable an electron...- Abhilash H N

Calculate Max Velocity of Mass Vibrating: 0.3kg, 200Nm-1, 10mm
(ωt+∅) becomes zero not 25.82 ... But you have taken (ωt+∅)=25.82t=0 in the coming equation, I think you substituted t=0 later, that's OK... And the answer comes out to be right.. Just don't confuse with the equations, first retrieve all data and then substitute that's all... :smile: Regards- Abhilash H N

Direction of induced current in conducting ring due to motion of bar m
When one tries to find the direction of induced current, the poles of the magnets also count. In the question the south pole goes first, and its description is given under the sub-heading 'Reverse pole' in web link you gave... And yes, there is a law for this one and it is called the 'Lenz`s...- Abhilash H N

Calculate Max Velocity of Mass Vibrating: 0.3kg, 200Nm-1, 10mm
Amplitude is nothing but the maximum displacement of the particle. Since the mass is pulled up to 10 mm from the actual or mean position it will be the amplitude (well, while in motion the mass cannot go any further right?). And t is not the displacement its the time. If you might recall the...- Abhilash H N
