Current is the overall flow of electrons through a conductor and can be defined as the speed of the flow of electrons. Resistance is defined as the opposition to current flow. Circuits must have resistance  to convert electrical energy into light, heat, or motion. Resistance is called the directional movement of electrons that form an electric current. It is also known that  electrons do not move freely in the crystal structure of a conductor. Resistance is the inherent opposition to the flow of electrons present in a conductor. Inductance is the property of any circuit to resist any change in current while capacitance is the property of the circuit to resist any change in voltage.

<h3>What is capacitor?</h3>

A capacitor is an electronic component that stores an electrical charge. Capacitors consist of two close conductors (usually plates) separated by a dielectric material. The plates accumulate an electrical charge when connected to a power source. The main purpose of a capacitor is to store electrostatic energy in an electric field and, if possible, to supply this energy to an electrical circuit.

To avoid dangerous circuit failure, they allow alternating current to flow but block direct current. Capacitors are widely used as circuit elements in many common electrical devices. Commercial capacitors are made of interwoven metal foils with paraffin or Mylar-impregnated paper as the dielectric.

Write differences between tornado and typhoon
Gala2k [10]

The difference lies in their size, wind velocity, rate of travel, and duration. A tornado reaches rotating speeds up to 300 miles per hour, travels between 25 and 40 miles per hour, and generally lasts for a few minutes (although it can exist for hours). A typhoon (the term used in the Pacific for a hurricane) has winds that vary from 75 to 200 miles per hour, moves between 10 and 20 miles per hour, has a diameter up to 600 miles, and exists from days up to a week. A tornado generally forms several thousand feet above Earth’s surface, usually during warm, humid weather. A typhoon breeds in low-altitude belts over the ocean, generally from 5 to 15 degrees latitude north or south.

monitta

Our Sun is one of many stars in the Milky Way galaxy. Earth is closer to the Sun than any other star. This is evident because " we rely on the Sun's radiant energy on Earth".

<u>Option: B</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Sun produces much radiant energy which is distributed as light to the Earth. Plants supports only process called photosynthesis for their food production, transform the electromagnetic energy in sunlight into chemical energy for their food. Radiant electromagnetic waves can be either visible or invisible.

Maximum solar radiation is absorbed by the atmosphere, but much of what hits the surface of the earth is emitted back into the atmosphere for heat energy to result. Dark colored items like asphalt consume radiant energy more easily than objects colored with light.
