Answer:

Electric current is electric charge in motion. It can take the form of a sudden discharge of static electricity, such as a lightning bolt or a spark between your finger and a ground light switch plate. ... Most electric charge is carried by the electrons and protons within an atom.

Explanation:

because it is

A horizontal spring with spring constant 130 N/m is compressed 17 cm and used to launch a 2.8 kg box across a frictionless, hori

olasank [31]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

k = 130 N/m, $\Delta x$ = 17 cm = 0.17 m (as 1 m = 100 cm)

mass (m) = 2.8 kg

When the spring is compressed then energy stored in it is as follows.

Energy = $\frac{1}{2}kx^{2}$

Now, spring energy gets converted into kinetic energy when the box is launched.

So, $\frac{1}{2}kx^{2}$ = $\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$

$\frac{1}{2} \times 130 \times (0.17)^{2}$ = $\frac{1}{2} \times 2.8 \times v^{2}$

$v^{2} = \frac{3.757}{2.8}$

= 1.34

v = 1.15 m/sec

Now,

Frictional force = $\mu \times mg$

= $0.15 \times 2.8 \times 9.8$

= 4.116 N

Also, Kinetic energy = work done by friction

$\frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = F_{f} \times d$

$\frac{1}{2} \times 2.8 \times (1.15)^{2} = 4.116 \times d$

1.8515 = $4.116 \times d$

d = 0.449 m

Thus, we can conclude that the box slides 0.449 m across the rough surface before stopping.

The ideal gas law includes all of the following properties, except the

Verizon [17]

The correct answer among the choices is option D. Density is not one of the properties included in the ideal gas law. The law is expressed as: PV=nRT. As we can see, the pressure, the volume and the temperature of the gas are included in the law.

What is a homopolar motor?????)

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

A homopolar motor is a direct current electric motor with two magnetic poles, the conductors of which always cut unidirectional lines of magnetic flux by rotating a conductor around a fixed axis so that the conductor is at right angles to a static magnetic field.
