Which statement best describes the movement of electrical current when a capacitor is used in a circuit?

Physics

Answer:

The discharge of a capacitor changes the direction of the current

Explanation:

Capacitor is used to store charges. Changing and discharging a capacitor changes the direction of the current.

When a capacitor is charging, current flows towards the positive plate and away from the negative plate. When the capacitor is discharging, current flows away from the positive and flows towards the negative plate, in the opposite direction. During these two processes (charging and discharging), it can be seen that the direction of the current is changed.

Therefore, the discharge of a capacitor changes the direction of the current

Explain how water circulates from deep oceans to the surface.
Alexxandr [17]
"These deep-ocean currents are driven by differences in the water's density, which is controlled by temperature (thermo) and salinity (haline). This process is known as thermohaline circulation. In the Earth's polar regions ocean watergets very cold, forming sea ice." this is what I found...

Sound travels through water at a speed of 1500 m/s. If the frequency of a sound is 1000 Hz, what is the wavelength?
ratelena [41]

Answer:

1.5m

Explanation:

Velocity=1500m/s

Frequency=1000hz

Wavelength =velocity ➗ frequency

wavelength =1500 ➗ 1000

Wavelength=1.5m

A particular 12 V car battery can send a total charge of 110 A·h (ampere-hours) through a circuit, from one terminal to the othe
DiKsa [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a) 3.96 x 10⁵C

(b) 4.752 x 10⁶ J

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

(a) The given charge (Q) is 110 A·h (ampere hour)

Converting this to A·s (ampere second) gives the number of coulombs the charge represents. This is done as follows;

=> Q = 110A·h

=> Q = 110 x 1A x 1h          [1 hour = 3600 seconds]

=> Q = 110 x A x 3600s

=> Q = 396000A·s

=> Q = 3.96 x 10⁵A·s = 3.96 x 10⁵C

Therefore, the number of coulombs of charge is 3.96 x 10⁵C

(b) The energy (E) involved in the process is given by;

E = Q x V           -----------------(i)

Where;

Q = magnitude of the charge = 3.96 x 10⁵C

V = electric potential = 12V

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

E = 3.96 x 10⁵ x 12

E = 47.52 x 10⁵ J

E = 4.752 x 10⁶ J

Therefore, the amount of energy involved is 4.752 x 10⁶ J
