How do electrons flow through a wire

Physics
1 answer:
aniked [119]3 years ago
7 0

Every atom has electrons. When you add new electrons to the wire, they will be passed on to an atom. The electrons keep passing from atom to atom until it reaches the light source, basically. It's kinda like that one song "100 jugs of milk" or whatever it's called. Each atom passes the atom next to it an electron.

What is the unit of work in SI system?
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Joule ;)

Explanation:

In the case of work (and also energy), the standard metric unit is the Joule (abbreviated J). One Joule is equivalent to one Newton of force causing a displacement of one meter. In other words, The Joule is the unit of work.

Hope this helps!

A rock is thrown vertically upward from some height above the ground. It rises to some maximum height and falls back to the grou
True [87]

Answer:

At the highest point the velocity is zero, the acceleration is directed downward.

Explanation:

This is a free-fall problem, in the case of something being thrown or dropped, the acceleration is equal to -gravity, so -9.80m/s^2. So, the acceleration is never 0 here.

I attached an image from my lecture today, I find it to be helpful. You can see that because of gravity the acceleration is pulled downwards.

At the highest point the velocity is 0, but it's changing direction and that's why there's still an acceleration there.

Properties such as luster conductivity and flexibility are used to describe what type of elements
pickupchik [31]
Answer: metals.

Justification:

There are 118  elements which you can find in the periodic table ordered by atomic number. Those elements my be classified into metals, non-metals and metalloids.

The metals are placed on the left side of the periodic table. The metals share the properties of luster, conductivity and flexibility.

The properties of non-metals (which are on the right side of the periodic table) are opposite to those of metals: opaque, low conductivity and brittle.

Metalloids have in between properties.

Copper, for example is a metal: it has luster, is flexible and is highly conductive of the electricity (and temperature).

A geosynchronous satellite moves in a circular orbit around the Earth and completes one circle in the same time T during which t
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The time period of geosynchronous satellite must be equal to T .

The radius of its orbit will be (  R+ h )

orbital velocity  V₀ =  \sqrt{\frac{GM}{( R+h)} }

Time period T = 2π( R + h ) / V₀

= 2π( R + h ) x \sqrt{\frac{( R+h)}{GM } }

\frac{T^\frac{2}{3}(GM)^\frac{1}{3}  }{(2\pi )^\frac{2}{3} } = R +h

h = \frac{T^\frac{2}{3}(GM)^\frac{1}{3}  }{(2\pi )^\frac{2}{3} } - R.
