What is the major difference between static Electricity and current electricity

Physics
2 answers:
jekas [21]4 years ago

1. Static electricity is caused by the build up of electrical charges on the surface of objects, while current electricity is a phenomenon from the flow of electrons along a conductor.
2. When objects are rubbed, a loss and/or gain of electrons occurs, which results in the phenomenon of static electricity.
3. Current electricity is normally controlled, and it is the more used phenomenon of electricity, in countless applications.
4. Static electricity is usually uncontrolled, and just happens sporadically.
5. Current electricity is generated by batteries and power plants.

A chair is thrown upward from a balcony that's 96 ft in the air, at an initial velocity of 16 ft/s.
kompoz [17]

Answer:

t = 6 s

Explanation:

Given that,

A chair is thrown upward from a balcony that's 96 ft in the air, d = 96 ft

The initial velocity of chair, u = 16 ft/s

We need to find how many seconds does the chair take to reach its highest height. Let the time is t.

t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{96\ ft}{16\ ft/s}\\\\=6\ s

Hence, the chair take 6 seconds to reach its maximum height.

Two blocks are suspended from opposite ends of a light rope that passes over a light, frictionless pulley. One block has mass m1
rewona [7]

Answer:

a)  m₁ = 1.41 kg , b)  m₂ = 2.65 kg

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use Newton's second law

Block 1

             T - W₁ = m₁ a

Block 2

           W₂ - T = m₂ a

We have selected the positive  block 1 rising and block two lowering, as the pulley has no friction does not affect the movement

Let's use kinematics to look for acceleration

         y = v₀ t + ½ a t²

As part of the rest the initial speed is zero

           a = 2 y / t²

           a = 2 6.00 / 2²

           a = 3 m / s²

Let's replace in the equation of block 1

a)   T = m₁ g + m₁ a

     m₁ = T / (g + a)

     m₁ = 18.0 / (9.8 + 3)

     m₁ = 1.41 kg

b) we substitute in the equation of block 2

     W₂ - T = m₂ a

     m₂ g - m₂ a = T

     m₂ = T / (g-a)

     m₂ = 18.0 / (9.8 -3)

    m₂ = 2.65 kg

What is Light ?<br> What are 7 spectrums of Light ?
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Light or visible light is electromagnetic radiation within the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is perceived by the human eye. Visible light is usually defined as having wavelengths in the range of 400–700 nanometres, between the infrared and the ultraviolet.

Here are the 7 from shortest to longest wavelength.

Violet - shortest wavelength, around 400-420 nanometers with highest frequency.  

Indigo - 420 - 440 nm.

Blue - 440 - 490 nm.

Green - 490 - 570 nm.

Yellow - 570 - 585 nm.

Orange - 585 - 620 nm.

Red - longest wavelength, at around 620 - 780 nanometers with lowest frequency.
