Physics Questions and Answers

Classical mechanics is a branch of physics that deals with the motion of macroscopic objects. It is based on the principles of Newton's laws of motion and is not considered to be part of elementary modern physics.

The other three options, quantum mechanics, special relativity, and nuclear physics, are all considered to be part of elementary modern physics because they deal with the behavior of matter and energy at the atomic and subatomic levels.

An AC generator uses slip rings to transfer the induced current smoothly to the circuit. A DC generator uses split rings to transfer the induced current to the circuit and also convert the induced AC into pulsating DC. So, to convert an AC generator into a DC generator, the slip rings needs to be replaced with split rings.

Rubber is a good insulator because it does not allow electrons to flow through it easily. Copper, silver, and water are all good conductors of electricity.

The electrolyte used in the Nickel-Iron (NiFe) accumulator is potassium hydroxide solution. It is a non-flammable, non-toxic, and relatively stable electrolyte. It is also a good conductor of electricity, which is important for the operation of the battery.

The Bohr model is a model of the atom that describes electrons as orbiting the nucleus in specific energy levels. This model was developed by Niels Bohr in 1913 and it is based on the work of Max Planck and Albert Einstein. The Rutherford model, the Thomson model, and the Dalton model are all older models of the atom that are not as accurate as the Bohr model.
