Describe the path of the electric current through a circuit?​

Physics
1 answer:
Kruka [31]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

current moves from positive terminal of a cell towards the negative terminal of a cell.

Explanation:

this happens when good conductors which have free electrons moving randomly within them.when a cell i s connected across the ends the free electrons moves in a given direction. then the current starts flowing in a opposite direction with electrons which moves negative terminal to positive terminal.

An electron and a proton each have a thermal kinetic energy of 3kBT/2. Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of each particle at a
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Given:

Thermal Kinetic Energy of an electron, KE_{t} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T

k_{b} = 1.38\times 10^{- 23} J/k = Boltzmann's constant

Temperature, T = 1800 K

Solution:

Now, to calculate the de-Broglie wavelength of the electron, \lambda_{e}:

\lambda_{e} = \frac{h}{p_{e}}

\lambda_{e} = \frac{h}{m_{e}{v_{e}}              (1)

where

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{- 34}m^{2}kg/s

p_{e} = momentum of an electron

v_{e} = velocity of an electron

m_{e} = 9.1\times 10_{- 31} kg = mass of electon

Now,

Kinetic energy of an electron = thermal kinetic energy

\frac{1}{2}m_{e}v_{e}^{2} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T

}v_{e} = \sqrt{2\frac{\frac{3}{2}k_{b}T}{m_{e}}}

}v_{e} = \sqrt{\frac{3\times 1.38\times 10^{- 23}\times 1800}{9.1\times 10_{- 31}}}

v_{e} = 2.86\times 10^{5} m/s                    (2)

Using eqn (2) in (1):

\lambda_{e} = \frac{6.626\times 10^{- 34}}{9.1\times 10_{- 31}\times 2.86\times 10^{5}} = 2.55 nm

Now, to calculate the de-Broglie wavelength of proton, \lambda_{e}:

\lambda_{p} = \frac{h}{p_{p}}

\lambda_{p} = \frac{h}{m_{p}{v_{p}}                             (3)

where

m_{p} = 1.6726\times 10_{- 27} kg = mass of proton

v_{p} = velocity of an proton

Now,

Kinetic energy of a proton = thermal kinetic energy

\frac{1}{2}m_{p}v_{p}^{2} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T

}v_{p} = \sqrt{2\frac{\frac{3}{2}k_{b}T}{m_{p}}}

}v_{p} = \sqrt{\frac{3\times 1.38\times 10^{- 23}\times 1800}{1.6726\times 10_{- 27}}}

v_{p} = 6.674\times 10^{3} m/s                               (4)                    

Using eqn (4) in (3):

\lambda_{p} = \frac{6.626\times 10^{- 34}}{1.6726\times 10_{- 27}\times 6.674\times 10^{3}} = 5.94\times 10^{- 11} m = 0.0594 nm

Distance is the length of a path followed by a particle. The displacement of a particle is defined as its change in position in
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Distance is described with only magnitude. It is defined as the total path covered by an object, in other words it  is the length of a path followed by a particle.

Displacement is described with both magnitude and direction. It is distance traveled in a specified direction or  change in position in some time interval.

Therefore, the correct option is " a. True"

What substances are acidic
Sedbober [7]
A substance with LOW pH. The lower the pH, the higher the acidity level is. pH has a direct effect on how acidic a substance is. For an example, battery acid. Battery acid has a pH level of about 1. This means that battery acid is very acidic. A substance is concidered acidic when it dips below the neutral pH level of 7.

Everything on this page is solved with the SAME formula !

             Distance = (speed) x (time) .


Before I get into how to solve each problem, we need to notice that
this whole sheet deals with speed, NOT velocity.

'Velocity' is speed AND THE DIRECTION OF THE  MOTION.
Nothing on this page ever mentions direction, so there's no velocity
anywhere on the page.

Your teacher may not be happy if you talk about this on your homework,
but that's too bad.  Just don't say "velocity" in any of your answers.
Say "speed", and if the teacher complains about that, then it's time to
let the teacher have it with both barrels.
 

1).  Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

2).  Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

3).  Distance  =  (average speed of travel) x (time traveling at that speed)

4).  Time to cover the distance = (distance) / (speed)

5).  Car's     speed = (distance the car covered)        / (time the car took)
      Sprinter speed = (distance the sprinter covered) / (time the sprinter took)

      Calculate the car's speed.
      Calculate the sprinter's speed.
     
      ... Look at the two speeds.
          Decide which one is faster.
     
      ... Subtract the slower one from the faster one. 
          The difference is the answer to "by how much?" .

6).  Distance  =  (speed) x (time spent moving at that speed)

7).  Average speed  =  (TOTAL distance covered)
                                      divided by
                                    (time to cover the TOTAL distance).
