When a wire is made smaller, the resistance increases. Which happens to the electric current?

Why does carpet tend to produce differences in static electricity more that hardwood or tile floors

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

This is because the rubbing releases negative charges, called electrons, which can build up on one object to produce a static charge. For example, when you shuffle your feet across a carpet, electrons can transfer onto you, building up a static charge on your skin.

Explanation:

This is because the rubbing releases negative charges

An open diving chamber rests on the ocean floor at a water depth of 60 meter. Find the air pressure (gage pressure relative to t

Fofino [41]

Answer:

Gauge Pressure required = 606.258 kPa

Explanation:

Water will not enter the chamber if the pressure of air in it equals that of the water which tries to enter it.

Thus at a depth of 60m we have pressure of water equals

$P(z)=P_{0}+\rho _wgh$

Now the gauge pressure is given by

$P(z)-P_{0}=\rho _wgh$

Applying values we get

$P(z)-P_{0}=\rho _wgh\\\\P_{gauge}=1.03\times 1000\times 9.81\times 60Pa\\\\P_{gauge}=606258Pascals\\\\P_{gauge}=606.258kPa$

The substances referenced in the table are being considered for use in cooking materials. Since the materials must be melted dur

frutty [35]

Brass requires more energy than silver

Aluminum requires more energy than copper

Aluminum requires more energy than brass

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity of a substance indicates the amount of heat energy required to raise 1 kg of that substance by 1 degree in temperature.

Mathematically:

$C=\frac{Q}{m\Delta T}$

where

Q is the heat supplied to the substance

m is the mass of the substance

$\Delta T$ is the change in temperature

Therefore, the higher the specific heat capacity of a substance, the more energy is needed to increase its temperature.

Here we can compare the specific heat capacity of the materials mentioned:

Silver: $C=0.233 J/gK$

Brass: $C=0.380 J/gK$

Platinum: $C=0.130 J/gK$

Aluminium: $C=0.910 J/gK$

Copper: $C=0.390 J/gK$

Therefore, the correct statements are:

Brass requires more energy than silver

Aluminum requires more energy than copper

Aluminum requires more energy than brass

what are 3 CHEMICAL REACTIONS that you personally observed over the last 2 weeks. You should only include chemical reactions tha

Allisa [31]

1). I started up my car. Gasoline was spritzed into the cylinders, mixed with air, and then exploded with an electrical spark. As the gasoline vapor instantly burned in the air, several new things were formed that weren't there before, like carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, water, and oxides of nitrogen.

2). I left my dinner on the stove a little too long, and it got a layer of crunchy crackly sooty carbon on the bottom. That part of it didn't taste too good. This isn't exactly something that happens every day, but more often than I'd like it too.

3). All day, every day, and all night, every night, about 10 or 20 times every minute, I pull air into my lungs. I keep it there for a while, then I blow it out and pull in some fresh stuff. The air I blow out has less oxygen and more carbon dioxide in it than it had when I pulled it in. That's because of the hundreds of chemical reactions going on inside my body, to keep me alive and functioning. I hope these keep going on for many many more days in the future.

Which example is NOT a part of the electromagnetic spectrum?

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Electricity is NOT a part of electromagnetic spectrum.

An electromagnetic spectrum contains electromagnetic radiations arranged according to frequencies and wavelength.

<h2>Further Explanation </h2><h3>Electromagnetic waves </h3>

Electromagnetic waves are types of waves that do not require a material medium for transmission.
These waves are mostly transverse in nature, which means the direction of transmission is perpendicular to the direction of vibration of particles.
They include, light waves, radio waves, x-rays, infra-red, etc.

<h3>Electromagnetic spectrum </h3>

An electromagnetic wave shows electromagnetic waves arranged according to frequencies and wavelength.
Electromagnetic spectrum contains electromagnetic waves: Gamma rays, x-rays, Ultraviolet, Visible light, infra-red, microwaves, and radio waves.
The electromagnetic spectrum is divided into various sections based on wavelength, with gamma rays having the shortest wavelength and radio waves having the longest wavelength.
The part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we can see using our naked eyes is called the visible light spectrum.
In order of frequency, the radio waves have the lowest frequency while gamma rays have the largest frequency.

<h3>General characteristics of electromagnetic waves </h3>

They travel with the speed of light (3.0 x 10^8 m/s)
They possess energy that is given by; E =hf, where h is the plank’s constant and f is the frequency.
They are transverse in nature, and therefore, the wavelength is measured between successful crests or troughs.
They can travel through vacuum

Keywords: Electromagnetic spectrum, electromagnetic waves.
