How does potential and kinetic energy change in to each other and back again?

1 answer:

6 0

They can change because the law of conservation of energy allows it to happen, for example when you are sitting, your body is at a potential energy state, meaning you are inert, you are not moving, but when you get up and suddenly start walking or running, that energy is converted to kinetic energy, meaning that you are moving and can be changed back into potential energy if all of a sudden you stop running or walking to rest or sit down. This is just an example of how energy can are transferred multiple ways

A constant amount of charge passes through a conductor. How is current affected if the same amount of charge passes in less time

baherus [9]

Answer:

B. The current increases.

Explanation:

As we know that rate of flow of charge through the conductor is known as electric current

So we have

$i = \frac{q}{t}$

here we know that charge Q flowing through the conductor is constant while the time in which it passes through it is decreased

so we can say that the ratio of charge and time will increase

so here we have

$i = increased$

So correct answer will be

B. The current increases.

How do surface currents affect climate

Bumek [7]

Ocean currents act much like a conveyer belt, transporting warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. Therefore, currents regulate global climate, helping to counteract the uneven distribution of solar radiation reaching Earth's surface.
