<span>Static discharge differs from electric current because static discharge is described by C. lasting for only a fraction of a second.
This is a very short period of time, and electric current lasts longer than a static discharge does.

Consider a stone and a football both at rest and having the same mass. why is it painful to kick the stone than to kick the foot
Kryger [21]

Answer:

stone with lesser mass can not go far because of firm structure but football that has greatet mass can go farther because of the structure that makes it move further when a force was applied to it

To calculate the ideal mechanical advantage of a lever divide the input arm by the output arm. 
Mechanical advantage is the amount by which a machine can multiply an input force, calculated by dividing output Force in newtons by input force in newtons, while the ideal mechanical advantage is the mechanical advantage of a machine that has no friction, calculated by dividing the input distance by the output distance.

True or false: Displacement is the total path traveled by an object
amm1812

Answer:true

Explanation:

Displacement is the vector representation of a change in position. It is path independent and is equivalent to the straight line distance between the start and end locations. Distance is a scalar quantity that reflects the path traveled.

Why isn’t a bird sitting on a high-voltage power line electrocuted? Contrast this with the situation in which a large bird hits
Grace [21]

Answer:

The reason the bird is not electrocuted is due to some facts about circuit:

1. Completeness of circuit- This circuit needs to be

complete in order for current to flow. The bird standing on only one wire has not completed the circuit.

2. A potential difference: Another factor deciding

the direction of flow of current is (electric)

potential. Current always flows from a higher

potential to a lower potential. In other words it

can be said that electrons flow from lower

potential to higher one. (the direction of electric

current is opposite to that of the electrons). So

we need the potential difference for current to

flow. The bird standing on only one wire has no potential difference.

3. Path of least Resistance- Factor that decides

the path a current will flow in case of parallel

paths is the (electric) resistance offered by the

path. Current will always flow in the path that

offers least resistance. The leg of a bird has high resistance.

Explanation:

It has no potential difference as both the legs of bird are touching the same wire at same constant potential. ... If the bird would touch the ground while sitting on the wire or flap its wings and touch another electric wire with a different voltage, then it would get shocked and likely die by electrocution.

while in the other hand, the Bird that touches two wires with it wings at the same time will get electrocuted because it has completed a circuit and the its feathers created a potential difference .
