I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. It is the electrons that flow because of electrical attraction and repulsion causes an electric current in a wire. Electrons, which continuously move in wire, are called Electric Current. Hope this answers the question.

Answer: The correct option is B.

Explanation:

The rate at which the electrons flow constitutes the electric current. The force is requires to make current flow through the wire.

There is a flow of the electrons in a wire due to the potential difference in the circuit.

The electrons always flow from high potential to the low potential. The electric force between the charged particles are important in electricity.

Unlike charges attract each other.The electrons are attracted towards the positive terminal of the battery. So, there are electrical attraction and electrical repulsion. Electrons flow because of electrical attraction and repulsion.

Therefore, the correct option us B.

In order to do work, the force vector must be

gregori [183]

As we know that total work done by a force is given by

$W = F.d$

$W = Fdcos\theta$

so it is product of force and displacement along same direction

as we can write it as

$W = (Fcos\theta)(d)$

so it must be the product of force and displacement in same directions so correct answer must be

<u>B. in the same direction as the displacement vector and the motion.</u>

Find the rms current delivered by the power supply when the frequency is very large. Answer in units of A.

Verizon [17]

Answer:

The rms current is 0.3112 A.

Explanation:

Given that,

Suppose, The capacitance is 170 μF and the inductance is 2.94 mH. The resistance in the top branch is 278 Ohms, and in the bottom branch is 151 Ohms. The potential of the power supply is 47 V .

We know that,

When the frequency is very large then the capacitance can be treated as a short circuit and inductance as open circuit.

So,

We need to calculate the rms current

Using formula of current

$I=\dfrac{V}{R}$
