Water will not flow down a flat slide because there is no potential energy difference between the two ends. How could this situa

Answer:

Electric current also flows according to the electric potential gradient

Explanation:

As the water flows according to the difference in potential energy, i.e. it flows from higher potential energy to lower potential energy, the electric current also flows in same way.

Electric current also flows according to the electric potential gradient which is measured in volts. So if two points in an electric circuit have the same electric potential then there will not be any flow of current between the two points. For example, in any circuit, if two points A and B both have a potential of 10 volts. Then there will be no electric current between A and B because the potential difference between between A and B is zero (10 - 10 = 0).

Starting from rest, a runner at a track meet reaches a speed of 7.5 m/s in 1.7 s. How far does she run during this time, assumin
Alex17521 [72]
For this problem, we use the equations derived for rectilinear motion at constant acceleration. The equations are:

a = (v - v₀)/t
x = v₀t + 0.5at²
where
a is acceleration
v and v₀ are the final and initial velocities, respectively
x is the distance
t is the time

First, let's determine the a to be used in the second equation:

a = (7.5 m/s - 0 m/s)/1.7 s = 4.411 m/s²
x = (0)(1.7s) + 0.5(4.411 m/s²)(1.7 s)²
x = 6.375 m

If a nichrome wire has a resistance of 15Ω and is connected across the terminals of a 3.0 V flashlight battery, how much current
scoray [572]

Answer:

0.20 A

Explanation:

The current in the wire is given by Ohm's law:

I=\frac{V}{R}

where

I is the current

V is the voltage

R is the resistance

In this problem,

V = 3.0 V is the voltage

R=15 \Omega is the resistance

Substituting into the formula,

I=\frac{3.0 V}{15 \Omega}=0.20 A

A force of 20 N acts on a smaller piston of a hydraulic press with an area of ​​10 dm2. How much force does the liquid act on a
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

166.67 N

Explanation:

Applying Pascal's principle,

Presure in the smaller piston(P') = Pressure in the bigger piston(P)

But,

Pressure = Force/Area

Pressure in the smaller piston(P') = Force applied to the smaller piston(F')/Area of the smaller piston(A')

Pressure in the bigger piston(P) =  Force applied to the bigger piston(F)/Area of the bigger piston(A)

F'/A' = F/A.................. Equation 1

Make F the subject of the equation

F = F'A/A'.............. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: F' = 20 N, A = 120 cm², A' = 10 dm² = (10×100) = 1000 cm²

Substitute these values into equation 2

F = 20(1000)/120

F = 166.67 N
