A student uses a meter to measure 120 coulombs flowing through a circuit in 60 seconds. The electric current in this circuit will be  2 A

Current is a flow of electrical charge carriers, usually electrons or electron-deficient atoms. The common symbol for current is the uppercase letter I. The standard unit is the ampere, symbolized by A.

current = charge / time

given

time = 60 seconds

charge = 120 Coulombs

current = Q / T = 120 / 60 = 2 A

What type of change accurs when a substance stays the same
Thepotemich [5.8K]
This would be a physical change because it can change back to its original form. This is like ripping paper. You can piece it back together and it still is paper.

The opposite of this is chemical change. Chemical change means the product has been changed completely like burning paper. The paper has now been turned to ash and it's impossible to change this back to its original form.

What is a law in physics? state the criteria for a statement to be a law.​
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

By nature, laws of Physics are stated facts which have been deduced and derived based on empirical observations. Simply put, the world around us works in a certain way, and physical laws are a way of classifying that “working.”

One end of an insulated metal rod is maintained at 100 ∘C and the other end is maintained at 0.00 ∘C by an ice–water mixture. Th
lozanna [386]

Answer:

k=105.0359\times 10^4\,W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

temperature at the hotter end, T_H=100^{\circ}C

temperature at the cooler end, T_C=0^{\circ}C

length of rod through which the heat travels, dx=0.7\,m

cross-sectional area of rod, A=1.1\times 10^{-4}\,cm^2

mass of ice melted at zero degree Celsius, m=8.7\times 10^{-3}\,kg

time taken for the melting of ice, t=15\times60=900\,s

thermal conductivity k=?

By Fourier's Law of conduction we have:

\dot{Q}=k.A.\frac{dT}{dx}......................................(1)

where:

\dot{Q}=rate of heat transfer

dT= temperature difference across the length dx

Now, we need the total heat transfer according to the condition:

we know the latent heat of fusion of ice,  L = 334000\,J.kg^{-1}

Q=m.L

Q=8.7\times 10^{-3}\times 334000

Q=2905.8\,J

Now the heat rate:

\dot{Q}=\frac{Q}{t}

\dot{Q}=\frac{2905.8}{900}

\dot{Q}=3.2287\,W

Now using eq,(1)

3.2287=k\times 1.1\times 10^{-4} \times \frac{100}{0.7}

k=205.4606\,W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

The application of Gauss's law is used in the derivation as shown with detailed step by step in the attached file.

The potential difference on this spherical capacitor is ΔV = Va - Vb = kQ/a - kQ/b = kQ(1/a - 1/b)
