What is direct current? In which direction does current go according to the electron flow convention?

Physics

KatRina [158]3 years ago

Answer:

Answer to the question is:

Explanation:

Direct Current:

It is that current where electrons circulate in the same amount and sense in time, that is, flowing in the same direction. Its polarity is invariable and causes a current of relatively constant amplitude to flow through a load. This type of current is known as direct current (DC), and is generated by a battery.

the current of electrons will leave the negative terminal of the battery, (because they repel each other and also repel free electrons in the copper conductor), and go to the positive terminal where there is a lack of electrons, passing through the circuit to which it is connected. In this way the electric current is produced.

according to newton's law of universal gravitation, in which of the following situations does the gravitational attraction betwe
Alex17521 [72]

Explanation:

The force acting between two masses is given by :

F=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{d^2}........(1)

Where

G is the universal gravitational constant

m_1\ and\ m_2 are masses

d is the distance between two masses

It is clear from equation (1) that the gravitational attraction between the bodies always increases if the masses of bodies increases and when the separation between masses decreases.

So, the correct answer is "the masses increase, and the distance between the centers of mass decreases". This is because the force of gravitation is directly proportional to the masses and inversely proportional to the separation.

1. a) Name 2 properties of waves that change if the wave changes media.
Drupady [299]
1.) The properties of a wave are the following.
a) <span><span>Amplitude - the height of the wave, measured in meters.
</span><span>b) Wavelength - the distance between adjacent crests, measured in meters.
</span><span>c) Period - the time it takes for one complete wave to pass a given point, measured in seconds.
</span><span>d) Frequency - the number of complete waves that pass a point in one second, measured in inverse seconds, or Hertz (Hz).
</span><span>e) Speed - the horizontal speed of a point on a wave as it propagates, measured in meters / second.

Among these properties, PERIOD and SPEED changes if the wave changes media. The others remain the same.

2. Speed = Wavelength * Frequency
    Wavelength and Frequency are independent from each other. But you can use the given formula and assume values to check the reaction of one from another.

3. Energy of a wave is based on its amplitude. High amplitude means high energy and vice versa. To increase the energy of a wave, the amplitude must be increased. Another way of increasing the energy of a wave is using elastic medium. </span></span>
