When an electric current flows through a long conductor, each free electron moves

When an electric current flows through a long conductor, each free electron moves from one end of the other end. When an electric field is applied to a conductor (a wire) the free electrons of the conductor are subject to an electric force which will cause the electrons to move. Given that the electrons are negatively charged they will move counter-wise the field.. Each end of the wire is attached to one pole or end of a battery (or generator of electricity) then the electrons will move form the end joined to the negative pole toward the end attached to positive pole.

The radius of curvature of a spherical mirror is 20cm.What is its focal length?

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf Focal \ length = 10 \ cm}$

Given:

Radius of curvature (R) of a spherical mirror = 20

To Find:

Focal length (f)

Explanation:

Formula:

$\boxed{ \bold{\sf Focal \ length \ (f) = \frac{Radius \ of \ curvature \ (R)}{2}}}$

Substituting value of R in the equation:

$\sf \implies f = \frac{20}{2}$

$\sf \implies f = \frac{ \cancel{2} \times 10}{ \cancel{2}}$

$\sf \implies f = 10 \: cm$

The sum of all forces acting on an object

Zina [86]

Answer:

The net force is the vector sum of all the forces that act upon an object. That is to say, the net force is the sum of all the forces, taking into account the fact that a force is a vector and two forces of equal magnitude and opposite direction will cancel each other out.

Why does the mass spectrum of Br2 contain three signals whose heights are almost in the ratio of 1:2:1? What are the origins of

Eddi Din [679]

The element bromine has two isotopes: Br-79 and Br-81, with a 50%-50% isotopic abundance. Statistically, 25% of bromine molecules will be Br79-Br79, 25% will be Br81-Br81 and 50% will be Br79-Br81. This is equivalent to a ratio of 1:1:2 or 1:2:1. The peaks in a mass spectrum just like chromatography reflect this relative abundance of different isotopic combinations.

I'm trying to find the potential energy of a planet using formula G M(sun) x m(planet) / r. I have given G - newton's graviation

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

$-5.39\times10^{33} J$

Explanation:

Potential energy =

$-\frac{GMm}{r}\\=-\frac{6.67\times10^{-11}\times1.99\times10^{30}\times5.97\times10^{24}}{147/1\times10^{9}}\\=-5.39\times10^{33} J$

A ball with a mass of 5.0 g is moving at a speed of 2.0 m/s. Would doubling the mass or doubling the speed have a greater effect

Sloan [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

doubling the speed will have a greater impact on kinetic energy as KE is a product of mass and the square of velocity.

KE = ½mv²

Base KE = ½(0.005)2.0² = 0.01 J

doubling the mass

KE = ½(0.010)2.0² = 0.02 J

doubling the velocity

KE = ½(0.005)4.0² = 0.04 J
