By definition we have to:

The electric current is the flow of electric charge due to the movement (usually of electrons) that a material travels.

Some properties are:

1) Electric conduction: The conductive materials have a large amount of free electrons, therefore, the passage of electricity is possible.

2) The current inside a circuit is directly proportional to the voltage and inversely proportional to the resistance of the circuit. This is what is known as ohm's law:

I =\frac{V}{R}

3) The current can be continuous or alternate.

Alternating current is the electric current in which the magnitude and direction vary cyclically.

The direct current is the flow of electric charges that does not change direction with time.

<span>In simple words, current electricity is the flow of electrons through a conductor (wires). Following are the few properties of the current Electricity:

1. Potential Difference (also called as Voltage):
It is the difference in Electric potential between two points. Those two points might be the positive and the negative ends of a battery. Higher the difference, greater will be the energy (potential) of the electrons running through a wire. It is represented by V, and its unit is Volts.

2. Electric Current
It represents the number of electrons (charges) passing by a point per second. Its unit is Ampere, and it is represented by A.

3. Resistance
It represents the opposition that a substance offers to the flow of electric current. Its unit is Ohm, and it is represented by Ω.

A guitar string is 90 cm long and has a mass of 3.7 g . The distance from the bridge to the support post is L=62cm, and the stri
zvonat [6]

To solve this problem we will apply the concept of frequency in a string from the nodes, the tension, the linear density and the length of the string, that is,

f = \frac{n}{2L}(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

Here

n = Number of node

T = Tension

\mu = Linear density

L = Length

Replacing the values in the frequency and value of n is one for fundamental overtone

f = \frac{n}{2L}(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

f = \frac{1}{2(62*10^{-2})}(\sqrt{\frac{500}{(\frac{3.7*10^{-3}}{90*10^{-2}})}})

\mathbf{f = 281.2Hz}

Similarly plug in 2 for n for first overtone and determine the value of frequency

f = \frac{n}{2L}(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

f = \frac{2}{2(62*10^{-2})}(\sqrt{\frac{500}{(\frac{3.7*10^{-3}}{90*10^{-2}})}})

\mathbf{f = 562.4Hz}

Similarly plug in 3 for n for first overtone and determine the value of frequency

f = \frac{n}{2L}(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

f = \frac{3}{2(62*10^{-2})}\bigg (\sqrt{\frac{500}{(\frac{3.7*10^{-3}}{90*10^{-2}})}} \bigg)

\mathbf{f= 843.7Hz}

The figure (Figure 1) shows the velocity of a solar-powered motorhome (RV) as a function of time. The driver accelerates from a
SpyIntel [72]

Explanation :

It is given that, the driver accelerates from a stop sign, cruises for 20 s at a constant speed of 60 km/h, and then brakes to come to a stop 40 s after leaving the stop sign.

We know that acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.

a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}

Where

dv is the change in velocity, dv = 0 - 60 m/s = -60 m/s

dt is the change in time, dt = 40 s - 30 s = 10 s

So, a=\dfrac{-60\ m/s}{10\ s}

a = -6\ m/s^2

From the graph it is clear that, from 30 s to 40 s the car is decelerating. So, at every second within this time the value of acceleration will be same i.e. -6\ m/s^2.

Goshia [24]

Answer:

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

Explanation:

In the United States of America, the agency which was established by US Congress and saddled with the responsibility of overseeing all aspects of pollution, environmental clean up, pesticide use, contamination, natural resources and hazardous waste spills is the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Also, EPA research solutions, policy development, and enforcement of regulations through the resource Conservation and Recovery Act.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is the governmental agency set up to ensure that various industries, factories and people comply with laws and regulations concerning the environment i.e it is an agency established to oversee and enforce environmental compliance by the people.

Hence, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is saddled with the responsibility of enforcing federal and state laws related to environmental and natural resources.
