A person drops a brick from the top of a building. The height of the building is 400 m and the mass of the brick is 2.00 kg. Wha
1 answer:
This question involves the conservation of energy. There are two energy in this case, potential energy and kinetic energy. Let's divid the energy into three status.
1. Before dropping, all potential energy
2.dropping, potential energy transformed to kinetic energy
3. before hitting the ground, all Kinetic energy.
Recall the formula for both energy, which are U=mgh, and K=1/2mv^2
Since the energy is conserved in this case ( b/c otherwise it will say in the problem), the amount of energy at the beginning should equal to the energy at the end. Therefore we have, mgh=1/2mv^2
plug the number in and solve for velocity.
2x400x10=1/2 x 2 x v^2
v^2=8000
v=
v=40

Answer:
The electrons are moving through the superconductor per second.
Explanation:
Given :
Current A
Charge of electron C
Time sec
From the formula of current,
Current is the number of charges flowing per unit time.
Where number of charges means in our case number of electrons
Therefore, electrons are moving through the superconductor per second.
