Answer:

How well a material conducts an electrical charge and is measured in ohms.

Explanation:

Resistance is the property of a conductor which opposes the flow of electric current. Its SI unit is ohms and represented by \Omega. According to Ohm's law voltage is directly proportional to the current flowing through the circuit.

It depends directly on the length of the conductor and inversely on its area of cross section. It measure how well a material conducts an electrical charge. Hence, the correct option is (b).

Jan is holding an ice cube. What causes the ice to melt?
Alexxandr [17]

The ice melts because Thermal energy from Jan’s hand is transferred to the ice.

<h3>What is thermal energy?</h3>

Thermal energy is the energy due to temperature difference.

Thermal energy flows from hotter to colder bodies.

The ice Jan is holding melts because heat is transferred from his hands t the ice.

In conclusion, thermal energy flow causes melting.

Calculate the power transfer when a pump moves 50kg of water through a vertical height of 8meters in 5seconds (take g =10meters
Vika [28.1K]

Hi there!

Recall the following relationships:

W = \Delta U = mg\Delta h\\\\P = \frac{W}{t}

W = Work (J)

U = Potential Energy (J)

m = mass (kg)

g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²)

h = height (m)

t = time (s)

Begin by calculating the work:

W = 50(10)(8) = 4000 J

Now, divide by the time to solve for power:

P = \frac{4000}{5} = \boxed{800W}

**W is the unit for power (Watts).  Be careful not to get the two confused.

Energy transformations in a watefall?
Alexxandr [17]

One of the most common energy transformations is the transformation between potential energy and kinetic energy. In waterfalls such as Niagara Falls, potential energy is transformed to kinetic energy. The water at the top of the falls has gravitational potential energy. As the water plunges, its velocity increases. Thanks to google!!!! LOL :)
