Consider dropping a ball from rest. This ball moves from astate of high gravitational potential energy to one of lowgravitationa

l potential energy as it falls to the ground.Similarly, charges move from a state of high electric potentialenergy to one of low electric potential energy.Mustang Sally just finished restoring her1965 Ford Mustang car. To save money, she did not get a newbattery. When she tries to start the car, she discovers that thebattery is dead and she needs a jump start. While unhooking thejumper cables, the positive and negative cables almost touch and aspark jumps between the ends of the cables. This spark is caused bythe movement of electrons through the air between the batteryterminals. In what direction are the electrons traveling?

Answer:

From the negative to the positive cable.

Explanation:

The electrons have negative charge, which means that the negative terminal of the battery will suply the electrons, thus they are present in excess on the negative cable and will jump from it to the positive cable. This current direction is called real current.

Fittoniya [83]

Initially its moving with tail wind so here the speed of wind will support the motion of the plane

so we can say

V_{plane} + v_{wind} = \frac{distance}{time}

V_{plane} + v_{wind} = \frac{1800}{9}

V_{plane} + v_{wind} = 200 mph

now when its moving with head wind we can say that wind is opposite to the motion of the plane

V_{plane} - v_{wind} = \frac{distance}{time}

V_{plane} - v_{wind} = \frac{1800}{12}

V_{plane} - v_{wind} = 150mph

now by using above two equations we can find speed of palne as well as speed of wind

V_{plane} = 175 mph

v_{wind} = 25 mph

You would need to use the equation a= (v-u)÷t
You need to substitute in the correct numbers.
a= (10-20)÷1

A car travelling at a constant speed of 70km/h passes a stationary police car. The police car immediately goes on the chase acce
Virty [35]

Answer:

18.24 seconds

Explanation:

First you convert the km/h to m/s, 70km/h=(175/9)m/s,85km/h=(425/18)m/s.

You know it took 10 seconds for the police to reach 85 km/h. Calculate the distance that the car is ahead of the police (175/9)*10=1750/9m. Then by divide 1750/9 with 425/18, you will get the value 8.24. Add the 10 seconds with the 8.24 you will get 18.24 sec which is the total time.
