Explain why a battery causes charge to flow spontaneously when the battery is inserted in a circuit

Physics
1 answer:
deff fn [24]3 years ago
3 0
Batteries supply electrons to the circuit by releasing negatively charged atoms or ions. These ions are produced by the batteries through a chemical reaction that spontaneously occurs within the battery. So the negative end of the battery pushes the ions towards the positive end of the circuit with the help of the voltage. This is why eventually, batteries "run out" when the electrode is used up and the chemical reaction can no longer continue.

What is the power dissipated by a 50.0 ohm resistor?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

The power, in watts, dissipated as heat in a resistor varies jointly with the resistance, in ohms, and the square of the current, in amperes. A 15-ohm resistor carrying a current of 1 ampere dissipates 15 watts. How much power is dissipated in a 5-ohm resistor carrying a current of 3 amperes?

Chemicals in the air can combine with rain to produce acid rain, which is harmful to the environment. Which of these is most lik
irinina [24]
Hi there!

Normal rain has a pH between 5.0 and 5.5, which is slightly acidic on the pH scale. Acid rain on the other hand has an average pH of 4.0, much more acidic than your average rain.

Therefore, the most likely pH of acid rain would be 4.0.

The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) orbits 569 km above Earth’s surface. If HST has a tangential speed of 7,750 m/s, how long is HS
deff fn [24]

Answer: 5,640 s (94 minutes)

Explanation:

the tangential speed of the HST is given by

v=\frac{2\pi r}{T} (1)

where

2\pi r is the length of the orbit

r is the radius of the orbit

T is the orbital period

In our problem, we know the tangential speed: v=7,750 m/s. The radius of the orbit is the sum of the Earth's radius and the distance of the HST above Earth's surface:

r=6.38\cdot 10^6 m+569,000 m=6.95\cdot 10^6 m

So, we can re-arrange equation (1) to find the orbital period:

T=\frac{2 \pi r}{v}=\frac{2 \pi (6.95\cdot 10^6 m/s)}{7,750 m/s}=5,640 s

Dividing by 60, we get that this time corresponds to 94 minutes.
