What causes resistance in an electric circuit?

1 answer:

7 0

an electric current flows when electrons move through your wire. when the electrons flow through they collide with ions in your wire which causes your resistance. hope this helps

1. °C= (°F-32) X 5/9. what will be the answer?

aleksley [76]

Answer:

F=9/5(°C)+32

Explanation:

Lets take an example

Take 25°C

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{9}{5}(25)+32$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 9(5)+32$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 45+32$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 77°F$

Solve the inequality. x/3 is greater than or equal to - 6. a. x ≥ –9 b. x ≥ 9 c. x ≥ –18 d. x ≤ –18

NISA [10]

To get x on its own, you times the 3 over to the other side so the 3 cancels out on the LHS.

~ x greater than or equal to -18

The plates of a parallel-plate capacitor are 2.50 mm apart, and each carries a charge of magnitude 80.0 nC. The plates are in va

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

10000 V

0.00225988700565 m²

$8\times 10^{-12}\ F$

Explanation:

E = Electric field = $4\times 10^6\ V/m$

d = Gap = 2.5 mm

Q = Charge = 80 nC

$\epsilon_0$ = Permittivity of free space = $8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m$

Potential difference is given by

$V=Ed\\\Rightarrow V=4\times 10^6\times 2.5\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow V=10000\ V$

The potential difference between the plates is 10000 V

Area is given by

$A=\dfrac{Q}{\epsilon_0E}\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{80\times 10^{-9}}{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 4\times 10^6}\\\Rightarrow A=0.00225988700565\ m^2$

The area of the plate is 0.00225988700565 m²

Capacitance is given by

$C=\dfrac{\epsilon_0A}{d}\\\Rightarrow C=\dfrac{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 0.00225988700565}{2.5\times 10^{-3}}\\\Rightarrow C=8\times 10^{-12}\ F$

The capacitance is $8\times 10^{-12}\ F$

As shown in the picture above, a sled of mass 67 kilograms is pulled

Scorpion4ik [409]

Explanation:

F net of sled = Tension force by rope - Kinetic friction between ground.

F normal of sled = mg = (67kg)(9.81kg/m^2) = 657.27N.

Kinetic friction = 0.18 (I cannot see the value) * Normal force of sled = 0.18 * 657.27N = 118.31N

So F net of sled = 800N - 118.31N = 681.69N.

(I cannot see what the question is asking for, please check on your own!)
