Hydro power, although a low-cost option, is not implemented every time because of the amount of disadvantages there are. One of the disadvantages this has is the pollution is gives. Since the reservoir is always filled with water, this causes any surrounding plants and trees to decompose, releasing a huge amount of methane and carbon dioxide into the environment. Aside from this, it also destroys nearby habitats, and diverts natural waterways, effectively killing fishes too.

Which statement best describes the movement of electrical current when a capacitor is used in a circuit?
Masteriza [31]

Answer: B.

Capacitors prevent current from moving through a circuit 

Explanation:

If a direct voltage is applied on the capacitor, no conduction current flows through the capacitor if its insulating medium is perfect insulator. This is due to the fact that there are no free charge carriers in such medium. Basically the real insulator contains very few charge carriers and therefore a very small leakage current passes in the capacitor depending on the conductivity of the insulator.

If an alternating voltage is applied on the capacitor, a displacement current passes through the capacitor irrespective of the insulating medium. This current is termed also the capacitive current. It flows because of changing electric displacement with time.

Over a span of 6.0 seconds, a car changes it's speed from 89 km/h to 37 km/h. What is its average acceleration in meters per sec
scoundrel [369]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

change in speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning)

change in speed = (37 km/hr) - (89 km/hr) = -52 km/hr

Acceleration = (-52 km/hr) / (6 sec)

Acceleration = (-26/3) km/(hr·sec)

Units: (1/hr·sec) · (hr/3600 sec) = 1 / 3600 sec²

(-26/3) km/(hr·sec) = (-26/3) km/(3600 sec²)

= -26,000/(3 · 3600) m/s²

<em>Acceleration = -2.41 m/s²</em>

If a car travels 600m west in 25 seconds, what is its velocity?
Elena L [17]

v =  \frac{ \:the covered distance}{time} \\

v =  \frac{600}{25} =  \frac{6 \times 100}{25} = 6 \times 4 = 24 \:  \\

v = 24 \:  \frac{m}{s} \\

_________________________________

If west means the west of the axis x the velocity equal :

- 24 \:  \frac{m}{s} \\
