How do electrons flow through a wire

Physics
1 answer:
aniked [119]2 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.

A comet is in an elliptical orbit around the sun. its closest approach to the sun is a distance of 4.5 1010 m (inside the orbit
barxatty [35]

r1 = 5*10^10 m , r2 = 6*10^12 m

v1 = 9*10^4 m/s

From conservation of energy

K1 +U1 = K2 +U2

0.5mv1^2 - GMm/r1 = 0.5mv2^2 - GMm/r2

0.5v1^2 - GM/r1 = 0.5v2^2 - GM/r2

M is mass of sun = 1.98*10^30 kg

G = 6.67*10^-11 N.m^2/kg^2

0.5*(9*10^4)^2 - (6.67*10^-11*1.98*10^30/(5*10^10)) = 0.5v2^2 - (6.67*10^-11*1.98*10^30/(6*10^12))

v2 = 5.35*10^4 m/s

our iclicker operates at a frequency of approximately 900 mhz (900x106 hz). what is the approximate wavelength of the em wave pr
Elena-2011 [213]

wavelength of the EM  wave produced by your iclicker is 0.33 m.

<h3>What makes an EM wave?</h3>
  • When an electric field (illustrated in red arrows) combines with a magnetic field, electromagnetic waves are generated (which is shown in blue arrows). An electromagnetic wave's magnetic and electric fields are perpendicular to each other and to the wave's direction.
  • A changing magnetic field causes a changing electric field, and vice versa—the two are inextricably related. Electromagnetic waves are created by changing fields. Electromagnetic waves, unlike mechanical waves, do not require a medium to propagate.

The clicker emits EM (electromagnetic) wave which travels at the speed of light, that is

v = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

The frequency is

f = 900mHz = 9 x 10⁸ Hz

velocity = frequency * wavelength, the wavelength, λ,  is given by

fλ = v

λ = v/f

  = (3 x 10⁸ m/s) / (9 x 10⁸ 1/s)

  = 1/3 m = 0.333 m

Write a hypothesis about the use of an object’s physical characteristics to determine its density. Use the format "if . . . then
mash [69]
For this case you must first know the definition of density.
 D = m / v
 where,
 m: mass
 v: volume.
 You can then write the following hypothesis:
 IF you know two physical characteristics of an object then you can determine the density. First weigh the object, THEN measure its volume BECAUSE the density is the quotient between the mass and the volume of an object.
