Electricity is the movement of _____ from one atom to another along a conductor.

Physics
1 answer:
prohojiy [21]3 years ago
4 0

The sentence can be completed as follows:

"Electricity is the movement of charges from one atom to another along a conductor."


The movement of the the charges is due to the presence of a potential difference across the conductor, which pushes the charges. More specifically, in normal conductors, the carriers of electricity are the electrons. Therefore we can rewrite the sentence as

"Electricity is the movement of electrons from one atom to another along a conductor."

A ball of mass 0.160 kg is dropped from a height of 2.25 m. When it hits the ground it compresses 0.087 m.
Studentka2010 [4]

A) 6.64 m/s downward

B) 0.026 s

C) -40.9 N

Explanation:

A)

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of energy.

In fact, since the total mechanical energy of the ball must be conserved, this means that the initial gravitational potential energy of the ball before the fall is entirely converted into kinetic energy just before it reaches the floor.

So we can write:

PE=KE\\mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m = 0.160 kg is the mass of the ball

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

h = 2.25 m is the initial height of the ball

v is the final velocity of the ball before hitting the ground

Solving for v, we find:

v=\sqrt{2gh}=\sqrt{2(9.8)(2.25)}=6.64 m/s

And the direction of the velocity is downward.

B)

The motion of the ballduring the collision is a uniformly accelerated motion (= with constant acceleration), so the time of impact can be found by using a suvat equation:

s=(\frac{u+v}{2})t

where:

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

s is the displacement of the ball during the impact

t is the time

Here we have:

u = 6.64 m/s is the velocity of the ball before the impact

v = 0 m/s is the final velocity after the impact (assuming it comes to a stop)

s = 0.087 m is the displacement, as the ball compresses by 0.087 m

Therefore, the time of the impact is:

t=\frac{2s}{u+v}=\frac{2(0.087)}{0+6.64}=0.026 s

C)

The force exerted by the floor on the ball can be found using the equation:

F=\frac{\Delta p}{t}

where

\Delta p is the change in momentum of the ball

t is the time of the impact

The change in momentum can be written as

\Delta p = m(v-u)

So the equation can be rewritten as

F=\frac{m(v-u)}{t}

Here we have:

m = 0.160 kg is the mass of the ball

v = 0 is the final velocity

u = 6.64 m/s is the initial velocity

t = 0.026 s is the time of impact

Substituting, we find the force:

F=\frac{(0.160)(0-6.64)}{0.026}=-40.9 N

And the sign indicates that the direction of the force is opposite to the direction of motion of the ball.

81. A 560-g squirrel with a surface area of 930cm2 falls from a 5.0-m tree to the ground. Estimate its terminal velocity. (Use a
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of squirrel m=560 gm

Surface area of squirrel A=930 cm^2

and the area which face A_f=\frac{A}{2}=465 cm^2

height of tree h=5 m

Coefficient of drag C=1

drag Force F_d=\frac{1}{2}C\cdot \rho \cdot A\cdot v^2

Terminal velocity is given

F_d=mg

\frac{1}{2}C\cdot \rho \cdot A\cdot v^2=mg

v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times m\times g}{\rho \times C\times A_f}}

v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 0.560\times 9.8}{1.2\times 1\times 465\times 10^{-4}}}

v=13.9 m/s

(b)Mass of person m=56 kg

v^2-u^2=2gh

u=0

v=\sqrt{2gh}

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 5}

v=9.89 m/s

I need to know what is a product and a reactant in this please
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

2Mg + O2 = Reactant | 2MgO = Product

Explanation:

It is pretty simple, look:

The elements that are being added (or in the majority of the cases, the one who are in the left side) are always the Reactant.

The other side is the product of the reactants.

It is like a mathematic formula

We some the numbers to get the result, the numbers are the reactants and the result is the product.

(I hope you didn´t get confused)
