Answer: Liquid
“A substance will take on the shape of an open container if it is a Liquid. Explanation: The major state of matter are solid, liquid and gas. Liquid usually have a definite volume.”
Answer: A) highly mobile electrons in the valence shell
Explanation: conductivity in metals is a result of the movement of electrically charged particles—the electrons. These free electrons also known as valence electrons are free to move, and as a result they can travel through the lattice that forms the physical structure of a metal. The presence of valence electrons determines a metal's conductivity. However, several other factors can affect the conductivity of a metal such as impurities, temperature, magnetic fields etc.
Explanation:
Given that,
(a) Work done by the electric field is 12 J on a 0.0001 C of charge. The electric potential is defined as the work done per unit charged particles. It is given by :



(b) Similarly, same electric field does 24 J of work on a 0.0002-C charge. The electric potential difference is given by :



Therefore, this is the required solution.
Answer:
0.36 A.
Explanation:
We'll begin by calculating the equivalent resistance between 35 Ω and 20 Ω resistor. This is illustrated below:
Resistor 1 (R₁) = 35 Ω
Resistor 2 (R₂) = 20 Ω
Equivalent Resistance (Rₑq) =?
Since, the two resistors are in parallel connections, their equivalence can be obtained as follow:
Rₑq = (R₁ × R₂) / (R₁ + R₂)
Rₑq = (35 × 20) / (35 + 20)
Rₑq = 700 / 55
Rₑq = 12.73 Ω
Next, we shall determine the total resistance in the circuit. This can be obtained as follow:
Equivalent resistance between 35 Ω and 20 Ω (Rₑq) = 12.73 Ω
Resistor 3 (R₃) = 15 Ω
Total resistance (R) in the circuit =?
R = Rₑq + R₃ (they are in series connection)
R = 12.73 + 15
R = 27.73 Ω
Finally, we shall determine the current. This can be obtained as follow:
Total resistance (R) = 27.73 Ω
Voltage (V) = 10 V
Current (I) =?
V = IR
10 = I × 27.73
Divide both side by 27.73
I = 10 / 27.73
I = 0.36 A
Therefore, the current is 0.36 A.
