Answer:

The answer is True.

Explanation:

Open circuit means incomplete flow of current in a circuit.

When switch is off, the electric current cannot flow throught the circuit for a complete circuit.

Law Incorporation [45]

Average speed is the ratio of total distance moved by Chi in total time interval

So here we will have

Total distance = 100 m + 400 m

$d = 500 m = 0.5 km$

Total time taken = 5 min + 15 min = 20 min

$T = \frac{20}{60} = \frac{1}{3} hour$

now by the formula of average speed we know that

$v_{avg} = \frac{d}{T}$

$v_{avg} = \frac{0.5 km}{1/3 h}$

$v_{avg} = 1.5 km/h$

so average speed will be 1.5 km/h

Anestetic [448]

Potential energy is energy that is found in a system, grounded on the position of objects. The Coulomb (C) is the unit of charge, and the unit of electric potential is the Volt (V), which is equivalent to (J/C) or Joule per Coulomb.So the formula for this is potential = kQ / d, plugging in the given from the questions will give us:potential = 8.99e9N·m²/C² * 1.602e-19C / 0.053e-9m = 27 V

If a car is accelerating downhill under a net force 3674 N , what additional force would cause the car to have a constant veloci

Semenov [28]

Answer:

For the car to move with constant velocity the additional force required is $F__{dg} }= -3674 \ N$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The net force of the car is $F_{net} = 3674 \ N$

Generally the total force acting on the car is the net force plus the force due to gravity acting in direction of the car (Let denote it as $F__{dg}$ )
