Explain how a battery in a circuit is similar to a water pump.

Physics

IRINA_888 [86]3 years ago
5 0
<span>A battery creates a potential difference, or voltage, which is really just storing electrical potential energy just as a pump would by moving water up against gravity, thereby storing gravitational potential energy. To complete the analogy, as current flows through the circuit, this potential energy is released and can be used by the components in the circuit. This is the same as water falling back down and turning some wheel or turbine and converting its gravitational potential energy into mechanical energy.</span>

In a paragraph, answer these questions:
mixer [17]

the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a byproduct.The inputs of photosynthesis are light energy, and matter in the form of water absorbed through the roots, and carbon dioxide absorbed through the leaves.The main outputs are oxygen, which is released into the air, and glucose sugar (chemical energy), which is used to keep the plant alive.

How many kj of heat are needed to completely melt 144 g of titanium metal, given that the metal is at its melting point? the hea
Elina [12.6K]

Given, mass of titanium metal = 144 g

Heat of fusion of titanium metal= 18.7 J/g

Heat of fusion is the amount of heat energy needed to change the state of one gram of a substance from solid to liquid or vice-versa.

Thus, 18.7 J of heat is needed to melt one gram of titanium metal.

Therefore, heat needed to melt 144 g of titanium metal = 18.7×144

= 2692.8 J

PLEASE HELP!!! GIVING BRAINLIEST!! ill also answer questions that you have posted if you answer this correctly!!!! (40pts)
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Newton's second law: F=ma.

Force = mass x acceleration

This basically means, that the more massive something is, and the faster it is going, the more force the object will have.

So, the factors that can be used to find acceleration are:

F=ma

a=F/m

So, we see that the correct answer is A, mass and force.

Let me know if this helps!

Consider the following objects and their locations. Object a 2-kg object 5 cm above the floor Object b 2-kg object 120 cm above
Nataly [62]

Answer:

The gravitational acceleration is same for all objects.

a = b = c = d

Explanation:

Acceleration due to gravity or gravitational acceleration is the force exerted by Earth on unit mass of an object.

Acceleration due to gravity doesn't depend on the height of the object when the height is object is near to the surface of the Earth. Only when the height is comparable to the radius of the Earth, the value of gravitational acceleration changes.

But for the objects here, the gravitational acceleration is independent of the mass or height of the objects and has a constant value of 9.8 m/s².

Therefore, the gravitational acceleration of all the objects is same.

If 'a', 'b', 'c', and 'd' represent gravitational accelerations of objects 'a', 'b', 'c', and 'd' respectively, then a = b = c = d.
