Capacitors function is to store up electricity and release it when the current is flowing. When there is no current, Capacitors still have electricity stored in them and can be discharged accidentally if something conductive touches them.

S_A_V [24]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

The compound magnesium phosphate has the chemical formula Mg3(PO4)2. In this compound, phosphorus and oxygen act together as one charged particle, which is connected to magnesium, the other charged particle. What does the 2 mean in the formula 5Mg3(PO4)2? A. There are two elements in magnesium phosphate. B. There are two molecules of magnesium phosphate. C. There are two magnesium ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate. D. There are two phosphate ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate.

Answer:

There are two phosphate ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate.

Explanation:

The compound magnesium phosphate is an ionic compound. Ionic compounds always consists of two ions, a positive ion and a negative ion.

In this case, the positive ion is Mg^2+ while the negative ion is PO4^3-.

The subscript, 2 after the formula of the phosphate ion means that there are two phosphate ions in each formula unit of magnesium phosphate.

A 5.0-ohm resistor, a 10.0-ohm resistor, and a 15.0-ohm resistor are connected in parallel with a battery. The current through t
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

E = 3456 J

Explanation:

The electrical energy expended in a resistor can be easily calculated by using the following formula:

E = Pt

where,

E = Energy Expended = ?

I = current through 5 ohm resistor = 2.4 A

R = Resistance = 5 ohms

P = Electrical Power = VI

Since,

V = IR (Ohm's Law)

Therefore,

P = (IR)(I) = I²R = (2.4 A)²(5 ohms) = 28.8 Watt

t = time taken = (2 min)(60 s/1 min) = 120 s

Therefore,

E = (28.8 Watt)(120 s)

<u>E = 3456 J</u>
