Answer:

0.20 A

Explanation:

The current in the wire is given by Ohm's law:

I=\frac{V}{R}

where

I is the current

V is the voltage

R is the resistance

In this problem,

V = 3.0 V is the voltage

R=15 \Omega is the resistance

Substituting into the formula,

I=\frac{3.0 V}{15 \Omega}=0.20 A

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

585×10⁸ m

Explanation:

Distance = rate × time

d = (2.998×10⁸ m/s) (3.25 min) (60 s/min)

d = 585×10⁸ m

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Complete Question

A parallel-plate capacitor, with air dielectric, is charged by a battery, after which the battery is disconnected. A slab of glass dielectric is then slowly inserted between the plates. As it is being inserted,  

A :

a force repels the glass out of the capacitor.  

B :

a force attracts the glass into the capacitor.    

C :

no force acts on the glass.      

D :

a net charge appears on the glass.      

E :

the glass makes the plates repel each other.

Answer:

The correct option is B

Explanation:

Generally when the glass dielectric is slowly inserted between the plated,

The positive plate of the capacitor will induce a negative charge on the glass while the negative  plate of the capacitor will induce a positive charge on glass which a electric field that posses an electric force that will attract the glass
