Answer:

Explanation:

The moving charged particles in an electric current are called charge carriers. In metals, one or more electrons from each atom are loosely bound to the atom, and can move freely about within the metal. These conduction electrons are the charge carriers in metal conductors.

The flow of electrons in a direction is known as electric current. The tendency of attraction between the positive and negative charges makes electric current flow through a wire

The mass of an object with 500 J of kinetic energy moving with a velocity of 5 m/s is

Ann [662]

40kg

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Kinetic energy = 500J

Velocity = 5m/s

Unknown:

Mass of the object = ?

Solution:

Kinetic energy is the energy due to motion of a body. It is expressed as:

K.E = $\frac{1}{2}$ mv²

m is the mass of the body

v is the velocity

To find the mass, make it the subject of the expression:

m = $\frac{2 K.E}{v[tex]^{2}$ }[/tex]

m = $\frac{2 x 500}{5[tex]^{2}$ }[/tex] = 40kg

Materials that conduct heat and electricity well in the solid state result when

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Materials that conduct heat and electricity well in the solid state result when metals bond with metals. This type of bonding is called metallic bonding. Metallic bonding is when positive ions (metals) are in a 'sea of negative electrons'. The electrons are delocalised, which means they can move around easily and carry charge, and this enables it to conduct electricity, even in a solid state.

Canada geese migrate essentially along a north–south direction for well over a thousand kilo-meters in some cases, traveling at

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

a) 66.4 relative to the west in the south-west direction

b) 5.455 hours

Explanation:

a)If the wind is blowing east-ward at a speed of 40km/h, then the west component of the geese velocity must be 40km/h in order to counter balance it. Geese should be flying south-west at an angle of

$cos(\alpha) = 40 / 100 = 0.4$

$\alpha = cos^{-1}(0.4) = 1.16 rad = 180\frac{1.16}{\pi} = 66.4^0$ relative to the West

b) The south-component of the geese velocity is

$100sin(\alpha) = 100sin(66.4^0) = 91.65 km/h$

The time it would take for the geese to cover 500km at this rate is

t = 500 / 91.65 = 5.455 hours

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

nice to help you

Explanation:

If for any reason the Sun shrank smaller than the Earth, this shrunken Sun wouldn't have the mass to create fusion and would burn out completely. Our solar system would lose its only star. ... Earth's mass would be at least 333,000 times bigger than it is now. Imagine the gravity that planet would have.

A slingshot fires a pebble from the top of a building at a speed of 14.7 m/s. The building is 36.0 m tall. Ignoring air resistan

monitta

Answer:

The final speed is 30.37 m/s for the three directions.

Explanation:

Given the initial speed, v₀ = 14.7 m/s and the height of the building as 36.0 m (neglecting air resistance and height of slingshot), we apply the principle of Conversation of Mechanical Energy:

E = Kinetic Energy (k.E) + Potential Energy (P.E)

K.E = 0.5mv²

P.E = mgh

∴ 0.5mv₀² + mgh₀ = 0.5mv₁² + mgh₁

Since the final height (h₁) is zero and m is a common term, then we can re-write the above equation as:

0.5v₀² + gh₀ = 0.5v₁² + 0

0.5v₁² - 0.5v₀² = gh₀

0.5(v₁² - v₀²) = gh₀

v₁² = v₀² + 2gh₀

Fitting in the given terms, we can calculate the final speed

v₁² = (14.7)² + (2)(9.81)(36.0)

= 216.09 + 706.32 = 922.41

v₁ = √922.41 = 30.37 m/s.

The speed at which the pebble hits the ground remains the same because kinetic energy depends on the speed of the object and not the direction to which the object is thrown.
