The current applied is 90A.

The formula used is I =Q/t.

what is ECT(electroconvulsive therapy) ?

A treatment called electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is used to treat some psychiatric problems. It includes administering a precisely timed electric current to the brain in order to influence brain function, which is intended to alleviate severe depressed and psychotic symptoms.

Modern day ECT is safe and effective . ECT is an invasive operation that can result in some memory issues, therefore it should only be used when absolutely required. It can relieve symptoms of the most severe forms of depression more successfully than medication or therapy.

what is charge and current ?

Electrons are particles that carry electrical energy from a cell through conducting wires as an electric current. Electrons are negatively charged particles. Charge is measured in coulombs, C. 1.6 x 10-19 C is the charge of an electron.

Charged particle flow is what makes up an electric current.

What is the velocity of an object with a mass of 4 kg and a momentum of 24 kg.m/s
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

6m/s

Explanation:

momentum = mass × change in velocity

∆p =m(v)

24 = 4(v)

V =>24/4 = 6m/s

A certain type of bird lives in two regions of a state. The distribution of weight for birds of this type in the northern region
Annette [7]

Answer: (a) Z-score are 1 and -1.2 for northern and southern regions, respectively.

Explanation: <u>Z-score</u> is how many standard deviations a data is from the population mean or how far a data point is from the mean.

The z-score is calculated by the following:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

where

x is the data point

μ is population mean

σ is standard deviation

For the <u>northern</u> <u>region</u> birds:

μ = 10, σ = 3, x = 13

z=\frac{13-10}{3}

z = 1

The z-score for birds living in the northern region is 1, which means it is 1 standard deviation <em>above the mean</em>.

For the southern region:

μ = 16, σ = 2.5, x = 13

z=\frac{13-16}{2.5}

z = -1.2

The z-score for southern living birds is -1.2, meaning it is 1.2 standard deviations <em>below the mean</em>.

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

60

Explanation:

Translation -

A book weighing 12 N is balanced on a table. Knowing that the static friction coefficient is 0.5, how much is the friction force worth?

Friction force is

f = u * n

f = 0.5 * 12N

f = 60
