Discrete systems are those systems in which are made up of finite component particles a which are non-homogeneously arranged such that no smooth variation exists. It is such that all constituent particles have properties which vary randomly. They are direct opposite to continuous systems, which are smooth arrangement of particles which cannot be individually taken into consideration.

Interesting question. I think it's a question of scale. After all, charge is "discrete" or "quantised" into electronic charges.
So, relatively few of them - eg in an atom - would be discrete.
A lot of them - eg in an electric current - would be "continuous" (or an avalanche of discretes = a continuum ... )

The latin word (Cirro) mean that the clouds are in high level <br><br> True of false?
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The Latin word "Cirro" means "curly" or "curl of hair" as in a cirrocumulus cloud. Cirrocumulus clouds are wispy clouds, and while they do appear high in the sky, the word "cirro" does not mean high in level.

Therefore, the answer is False.

Have a lovely rest of your day/night, and good luck with your assignments! ♡

16) A man ran a 5 mile race. The race looped around a city park and back
finlep [7]

Answer:

The man's total displacement is equal to 0.

Explanation:

Given that,

A man ran a 5 mile race. The race looped around a city park and back  to the starting line.

We need to find the total displacement of the man.

We know that,

Displacement = shortest path covered

Also,

Displacement = final position - initial position

As it reaches back to its starting line, it means, the displacement is equal to 0.

Hence, the man's total displacement is equal to 0.
