Why is electric current scalar quantity with having direction ?​

Physics

frez [133]2 years ago

Explanation:

It represents the direction of flow of positive charge but is treated as a scalar quantity because current follows the laws of scalar addition and not the laws of vector addition. The angle between the wires carrying current does not affect the total current in the circuit.

suppose that you had an ohmmeter and a mystery component that could be either an inductor or a capacitor. How could you use the
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

To determine the mystery component we will connect the mystery component to a DC voltage source, then I will measure the resistance of the component with the use of Ohmmeter, the value of the resistance of the mystery component will determine what the mystery component is

if the resistance > 1( very high )   then component is a capacitor

if the resistance = 0 then component is an inductor

Why did you need a permanent magnet? What do you think would happen if you increased the
inysia [295]

Permanent magnets are important for their industrial uses especially when it comes to power generation and electric motors. The induction process for turbines and generators needs permanent magnets to turn mechanical motion into energy.

Exposing magnetized magnets to opposing external fields produces a demagnetizing effect. This effect is most apparent in permanent magnet materials having a non-linear demagnetization curve, such as Alnico. ... Other factors such as SHOCK and VIBRATION have very little effect on today's permanent magnet materials.

a ball is thrown straight up into the air with a speed of 13 m/s. if the ball has a mass of 0.25 kg, how high does the ball go?
evablogger [386]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: 8.62m

<h2>Why?</h2>

There are involved two types of mechanical energy: kinetic energy and potential energy, in two different moments.

<h2>First moment:</h2>

Before the ball is thrown, where the potential energy is 0.

<h2>Second moment: </h2>

After the ball is thrown, at its maximum height, the Kinetic Energy turns to 0 (since at maximum height,the speed is equal to 0) and the PE turns to its max value.

Therefore,

E=PE+KE

Where:

PE=m.g.h

KE=\frac{1*m*v^{2}}{2}

<em>E</em> is the total energy

<em>PE</em> is the potential energy

<em>KE</em> is the kinetic energy

<em>m</em> is the mass of the object

<em>g</em> is the gravitational acceleration

<em>h </em>is the reached height of the object

<em>v</em> is the velocity of the object

Since the total energy is always constant, according to the Law of Conservation of Energy, we can write the following equation:

KE_{1}+PE_{1}=KE_{2}+PE_{2}

Remember, at the first moment the PE is equal to 0 since there is not height, and at the second moment, the KE is equal to 0 since the velocity at maximum height is 0.

\frac{1*m*v^{2}}{2}+m.g.(0)=\frac{1*m*0^{2}}{2}+m.g.h\\\frac{1*m*v_{1} ^{2}}{2}=m*g*h_{2}

So,

h_{2}=\frac{1*m*v_{1} ^{2}}{2*m*g}\\h_{2}=\frac{1*v_{1} ^{2}}{2g}=\frac{(\frac{13m}{s})^{2} }{2*\frac{9.8m}{s^{2}}}\\h_{2}=8.62m}

Hence,

The height at the second moment (maximum height) is 8.62m

Have a nice day!

Describe how work done is related to a change in volume of a fluid. 100 points
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer: work is the pressure acting through the change in volume

Explanation:

In the same way that work is defined as force operating over a distance,  work is the pressure acting through the change in volume.   Pressure is comparable to force in pressure–volume work, while volume is analogous to distance in the classic definition of work.
