Answer : The correct option is, (A) Refrigerator

Explanation :

There are two type of current which are direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC).

Direct current : In this, the electric current or charge flows in one direction only.

Alternating current : In this, the electric current or charge changes in periodical direction. It is used to supply power to houses, office building, etc.

From the given options, refrigerator device is most likely used to operate on alternating current.

While the other options, flashlight, remote control and cell phone is used to operate on direct current. In these devices, a battery is used which is a source of direct current.

Hence, the correct option is, (A) Refrigerator

1. State the law of conservation of energy and what it means for you as a human considering how energy works.

Arturiano [62]

Answer: 1. The law of consevation of energy sates that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It can only be transformed or transfered from one form to another. The law of conservation of energy is found everywhere for example, Water falls from the sky, converting potential energy to kinetic energy.

2. Different forms of energy are related because energy cannot be created or destroyed. they can all be transformed into from one form to another.

Why might video games increase creativity while the use of cell phones, the internet, or computers do not?

taurus [48]

Explanation:

Video games are developed around a structure that is unique from your usual media, where there is a sense purpose in mind when playing a game, as decided by the player, and it allows them to explore creative options in order to solve scenarios, depending on the genre. In the use of phones, internet, or computers, this structure is more rare and diverse from video games, which does not lean more toward a creative purpose to build from. That idea gives people the inspiration and discover skills they never knew they even had.

An 4-kg ball experiences a force and accelerates at a rate of 1.5 m/s.

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

6.0 N

Explanation:

The strength of a force is expressed as the magnitude of the force in Newton.

The formula to apply here is :

Force= mass * acceleration

F=ma

Mass, m = 4 kg

Acceleration = 1.5 m/s²

Force= 4 *1.5 = 6.0 N
