5. The wire in consists of two segments of different diameters but made from the same metal. The current in segment 1 is I1. a.
Volgvan

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

answer :

a) I1 = I2

b) J1 > J2

c) E 1 > E2

d) ( vd1 ) > ( vd2 )

Explanation:

a) The currents in the two segments are the same  i.e. I1 = I2  and this is because the segments are connected in series

b) Comparing the current densities J1 and J2 in the two segments

note : current density ∝ 1 / area

The area of the second segment is > the area of first segment  therefore

J1 > J2

J1 ( current density of first segment )

J2 ( current density of second segment )

c) Comparing the electric field strengths E1 and E2

 note : electric field strength ∝ current density

since current density of first segment is > current density of second segment  and conductivity of the materials are the same hence

E 1 > E2

d) Comparing the drift speeds Vd1 and Vd2

( vd1 ) > ( vd2 )

this because  ; vd ∝ current density

The energy produced by the internal motion of atoms? electrical , thermal, chemical, nuclear
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Thermal energy, or heat, is the energy that comes from the movement of atoms and molecules in a substance. Heat increases when these particles move faster. Geothermal energy is the thermal energy in the earth. Motion energy is energy stored in the movement of objects. so the answer is thermal energy

List 5 possible effects of not adhering to standards of measurement
Bond [772]

Explanation:

Without the metric system, we'd have a different International System of Units, the metric system is important because 1mm is 0.1cm, 1 cm is 0.01m, with the imperial system the conversion is tedious. The most important feature of the metric system is its base in scientific fact and repeatable standards of measurement

3. (a) Sate any three properties of an ideal gas as assumed by the kinetic theory of gas.​
Aliun [14]

Explanation:

The simplest kinetic model is based on the assumptions that: (1) the gas is composed of a large number of identical molecules moving in random directions, separated by distances that are large compared with their size; (2) the molecules undergo perfectly elastic collisions (no energy loss) with each other and with the ...
