Answer:
Explanation:
3. The word circuit means "go around", therefore a circuit is a pathway or closed path around which electricity (or water) flows.
4. Electrons flowing through a wire can be compared to water flowing through a hose. Once the flow of electrons or water is going, work, is performed.
5. You would get shocked in a bumper car by touching the floor and the ceiling at the same time. This means you are completing the circuit allowing electricity to flow.
6. Electricity from a wall outlet has enough energy to stop your
heart.
7. Electricity is the flow of electrons, because electrons move or jump from atom to atom.
8. Materials that allow electrons to move easily from atom to atom are called conductors.
9. Materials that do not allow electrons to flow easily are called insulators.
10. Semi- conductors are materials that are somewhere in between
.
11. Voltage is the force or pressure of electricity and is compared to the amount of water pressure in a hose.
12. Current (amps
) is the amount of electricity and is compared to the amount of water in a hose
.
13. Watts (power) is the term for work performed by electricity.
Answer:
parabolic path
Explanation:
As the cart reaches the end of the table with a horizontally directed velocity (only horizontal component), the cart will follow a parabolic path given by the combined action of:
(1) kinematic equation for motion under constant velocity in the horizontal direction (linear expression in terms of time), and
(2) kinematic equation for motion under constant acceleration (that of gravity) in the vertical direction (quadratic expression in terms of time)
Answer:
velocity of car=5.855 m/s
Explanation:
Answer:
Explanation:
Area of the solar sail = A = 30 m2
Solar constant = I = 1388 W/m2
Planck's constant = h = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ m²kg/s
Speed of light = c = 3×10⁸ m/s
Wavelength of light = 
= 570 nm
Pressure from radiation
Energy of a photon
Number of photons
Number of photons is
Answer:
the potential energy of this body is 245 J.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the body, m = 250 g = 0.25 kg
height from which the body was dropped, h = 100 m
acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²
The potential energy of this body is calculated as;
P.E = mgh
substitute the given values and solve for the potential energy of this body;
P.E = 0.25 x 9.8 x 100
P.E = 245 J.
Therefore, the potential energy of this body is 245 J.
