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.

Two sources of light of wavelength 700 nm are 9 m away from a pinhole of diameter 1.2 mm. How far apart must the sources be for
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The distance is  D  =  0.000712 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The wavelength of  the  light source is  \lambda  =  700 \ nm = 700 *10^{-9} \  m

     The distance from a pin hole is  x  =  9\ m

       The  diameter of the pin  hole is  d =  1.2 \ mm  =  0.0012 \ m

     

Generally the distance which the light source need to be in order for their diffraction patterns to be resolved by Rayleigh's criterion is

mathematically represented as

              D  =  \frac{1.22 \lambda }{d }

substituting values

             D  =  \frac{1.22 * 700 *10^{-9} }{ 0.0012 }

             D  =  0.000712 \ m

Where does salt in the ocean come from
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Salt in the ocean comes from two sources: runoff from the land and openings in the seafloor. Rocks on land are the major source of salts dissolved in seawater. Rainwater that falls on land is slightly acidic, so it erodes rocks.

Explain: What happens to the velocity of a stream as the size of the sediment increases?
artcher [175]

Answer:

Also, as stream depth increases, the hydraulic radius increases thereby making the stream more free flowing. Both of these factors lead to an increase in stream velocity. The increased velocity and the increased cross-sectional area mean that discharge increases.

HI!

Conventional vehicles use gasoline or diesel to power an internal combustion engine. Hybrids also use an internal combustion engine—and can be fueled like normal cars—but have an electric motor and battery, and can be partially or wholly powered by electricity. Also pollute less and save the drivers money.

Good Day.
