Answer:

Electromagnetic wave are waves formed as a result of the oscillatory activities involving the electric and the magnetic field.

However in an Electromagnetic wave, the electric field and magnetic field carry equal amounts of energy and the magnitude of the electric field is directly proportional to the magnitude of the magnetic field. This direct proportionality gives rise to the speed of light being the constant between the two fields.

When the electric field is doubled then an equal action is to be set for the magnetic field so it doesn’t deviate from its main functions and characteristics.

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Rate at which current flows is measured in amperes

Explanation:

The rate of flow of electrons constitutes the current. The electrons flow from lower electric potential to higher electric potential. When there is no potential difference then no electron will flow. The direction of the current and the electron are in opposite direction.

The direction of electron from the negative terminal to the positive terminal. The direction of current is from the positive terminal to the negative terminal.The current is measured in ampere.

The expression for current and the charge is as;

$I=\frac{q}{t}$

Here, q is the charge, t is the time taken and I is the current.

According to the given problem, Jodi made a list about electric current to help her study for a test. He described that electrons move from areas of low to high electric potential, voltage causes current to flow and movement of electrons is continuous in a current.

But he did error. It should be "rate at which charges flow" instead of rate at which current flow.

Therefore, the option (4) is correct.

A student connects a 1 hp motor to a bicycle. How much time will it take for the bicycle to accelerate from rest to a speed of 5

bija089 [108]

Answer:

t=2s

Explanation:

The definition of power is:

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

And the work-energy theorem states that:

$W=\Delta K$

Since the movement starts from rest, we have that:

$\Delta K=\frac{mv_f^2}{2}-\frac{mv_0^2}{2}=\frac{mv_f^2}{2}$

And putting all together:

$P=\frac{mv_f^2}{2t}$

Since we want the time taken:

$t=\frac{mv_f^2}{2P}$

Which for our values is:

$t=\frac{(120kg)(5m/s)^2}{2(746W)}=2s$

Consider two uniform solid spheres where both have the same diameter, but one has twice the mass of the other. how much larger i

egoroff_w [7]

<span>The moment of inertia of the large sphere will be twice that of the smaller sphere.
The formula for the moment of inertia for a solid sphere is:
I = (2/5)mr^2
where
I = moment of inertia
m = mass
r = radius

Since both spheres have the same diameter, they also have the same radius, so the only change is their mass. And the moment of inertia is directly proportional to their mass as shown by the above formula. So the sphere with twice the mass will have twice the moment of inertia, or 2 times.</span>
