From the reference point of the river, the speed of the boat is 20 km/h. From the reference point of someone standing on the shore, the speed of the boat is the speed on the speedometer plus the downstream speed of the current.

What is the current in milliamperes produced by the solar cells of a pocket calculator through which 3.70 C of charge passes in
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Current flowing in the cell will be equal to 0.1284 mA

Explanation:

We have given charge q = 3.70 C

And time through which charge is flowing = 8 hour

We know that 1 hour = 60 minutes, and 1 minute = 60 sec

So 1 hour = 60×60 = 3600 sec

So 8 hour = 8×3600 = 28800 sec

We know that current is rate time rate of flow of charge

So current i=\frac{q}{t}=\frac{3.70}{28800}=1.284\times 10^{-4}A=0.1284mA

So current flowing in the cell will be equal to 0.1284 mA

The ________ on the axis (c2) forms a pivot point with the atlas (c1) that allows you to nod a "no."
strojnjashka [21]
The dens or the odontoid process of the axis or the second cervical spine forms a pivot point with the atlas or the first cervical vertebrae that is responsible for the nodding and the rotational movements of the head. This is reinforced by ligaments and the atlanto-occipital joint that allows the head to make a nodding or up and down movement on the vertebral column.

Lapatulllka [165]

The statement  " Brand-W motor does 7,640 N of your toughest work." can be truthfully use.

Advertisement Rules:

  • An advertiser can not compare its products using the other companies name.
  • An advertiser can not make the false statement in its advertisement.

Here, the brand-W has the power rating of  7,640 W that is less than brand-Y. Advertiser cannot compare his brand using the name of Brand X, Y, or Z.

Therefore, the statement  " Brand-W motor does 7,640 N of your toughest work." can be truthfully use.
