Answer;

the potential difference

The magnitude of the electric current is directly proportional to the potential difference of the electric field

Explanation;

An electric current results from the collective movement of free charges under the effect of an electric field. An electric field exists and can be observed in the space around a single charge or a number of charges.

Electric fields cause charges to move. It stands to reason that an electric field applied to some material will cause currents to flow in that material. In other words, the current density is directly proportional to the electric field. The constant of proportionality σ is called the material’s conductivity.

Answer:Conversion of electric energy to Heat energy

Explanation:Energy is a quantitative energy measured in JOULES or KILOJOULES which must be transferred to a material for a job to be done. It has also been described as the capacity to do work.

In electric toasters the ELECTRIC ENERGY FROM THE SOURCE IS TRANSFERRED INTO THE TOASTER TO BE CONVERTED TO HEAT ENERGY NEEDED TO TOAST FOODS. Other electrical appliances which converts electric energy to Heat energy includes ELECTRIC BOILERS, ELECTRIC COOKERS etc.

A shot-putter accelerates a 7.2 kg shot from rest to 17 m/s . what work did the shot-putter do on the ball?
garri49 [273]
<span>1.0x10^3 Joules The kinetic energy a body has is expressed as the equation E = 0.5 M V^2 where E = Energy M = Mass V = Velocity Since the shot was at rest, the initial energy is 0. Let's calculate the energy that the shot has while in motion E = 0.5 * 7.2 kg * (17 m/s)^2 E = 3.6 kg * 289 m^2/s^2 E = 1040.4 kg*m^2/s^2 E = 1040.4 J So the work performed on the shot was 1040.4 Joules. Rounding the result to 2 significant figures gives 1.0x10^3 Joules</span>
