What direction does current flow from a battery in a series circuit?

2 answers:

6 0

What's now called "Conventional current" is thought of as the flow of positive charge, from the battery's positive terminal to its negative one.

But it turns out that positive charges don't flow. The physical flow of charge is the flow of electrons. They come out of the battery's negative terminal, and carry negative charge around the circuit to the battery's positive one.

If a point has 40 J of energy and the electric potential is 8 V, what must be the charge?

Alekssandra [29.7K]

If a point has 40 J of energy and the electric potential is 8 V, the charge must be: A. 5 C

<u>Given the following the details;</u>

Energy = 40 Joules

Electric potential = 8 Volts

To find the quantity of charge;

Mathematically, the quantity of charge with respect to electric potential is given by the formula;

$Quantity \; of \; charge = \frac{Energy}{Electric \; potential}$

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

$Quantity \; of \; charge = \frac{40}{8}$

<em>Quantity of charge = 5 Coulombs</em>

Therefore, the quantity of charge must be <em>5 Coulombs.</em>

Problem:

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Total energy is constant

Explanation:

The laws of thermodynamics state that thermal energy (heat) is always transferred from a hot body (higher temperature) to a cold body (lower temperature).

This is because in a hot body, the molecules on average have more kinetic energy (they move faster), so by colliding with the molecules of the cold body, they transfer part of their energy to them. So, the temperature of the hot body decreases, while the temperature of the cold body increases.

This process ends when the two bodies reach the same temperature: we talk about thermal equilibrium.

In this problem therefore, this means that the thermal energy is transferred from the hot water to the cold water.

However, the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system is constant: therefore here, if we consider the hot water + cold water as an isolated system (no exchange of energy with the surroundings), this means that their total energy remains constant.

A passenger train left station A at 6:00 p.m. Moving with the average speed 45 mph, it arrived at station B at 10:00 p.m. A tran

marishachu [46]

<h2>Average speed of transit train is 60 mph</h2>

Explanation:

Average speed of passenger train = 45 mph

Time taken from station A to station B for passenger train = 10:00 - 6:00 = 4 hours

Distance between station A to station B = 45 x 4 = 180 miles.

Time taken from station A to station B for transit train = 4 - 1 = 3 hours

Distance between station A to station B = Average speed of transit train x Time taken from station A to station B for transit train

180 = Average speed of transit train x 3

Average speed of transit train = 60 mph

Average speed of transit train is 60 mph
