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

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.

Explain why ionizing radiation is dangerous?

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

When the dose is high enough, ionizing radiation causes two types of harm to humans: direct tissue damage and cancer. Direct tissue damage happens when enough molecules are broken apart that the cells simply can no longer function. This can lead to radiation burns, radiation sickness, organ failure, and even death.

A dart hits a dartboard and stops in 0.060 s. The net force on the dart is 14 N during the collision.

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

The change of momentum of the dart is 0.84 Nw.s

Explanation:

Impulse and change of momentum

The change in momentum of an object is its mass times the change in its velocity:

$\Delta p=m\Delta v=m(v_2-v_1)$

The change in the momentum can also be found by considering the force acting on it. If a force F acts for a time Δt, the change of momentum is given by:

$\Delta p=F.\Delta t$
