<span>The importance of discovering gravitational waves are; one, we can measure the activity between two bodies in orbit in the universe, two, scientist can estimate the merging of two bodies in the universe every 15 minutes by using LIGO and three, we can know the behavior of other bodies that we did not know exist.</span>

Can someone tell me how this circuit works?
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

In the scientific model, electric current is the overall movement of charged particles in one direction. The cause of this movement is an energy source like a battery, which pushes the charged particles. The charged particles can move only when there is a complete conducting pathway (called a ‘circuit’ or ‘loop’) from one terminal of the battery to the other.

A simple electric circuit can consist of a battery (or other energy source), a light bulb (or other device that uses energy), and conducting wires that connect the two terminals of the battery to the two ends of the light bulb. In the scientific model for this kind of simple circuit, the moving charged particles, which are already present in the wires and in the light bulb filament, are electrons.

Electrons are negatively charged. The battery pushes the electrons in the circuit away from its negative terminal and pulls them towards the positive terminal (see the focus idea Electrostatics – a non contact force). Any individual electron only moves a short distance. (These ideas are further elaborated in the focus idea Making sense of voltage). While the actual direction of the electron movement is from the negative to the positive terminals of the battery, for historical reasons it is usual to describe the direction of the current as being from the positive to the negative terminal (the so-called ‘conventional current’).

The energy of a battery is stored as chemical energy (see the focus idea Energy transformations). When it is connected to a complete circuit, electrons move and energy is transferred from the battery to the components of the circuit. Most energy is transferred to the light globe (or other energy user) where it is transformed to heat and light or some other form of energy (such as sound in iPods). A very small amount is transformed into heat in the connecting wires.

The voltage of a battery tells us how much energy it provides to the circuit components. It also tells us something about how hard a battery pushes the electrons in a circuit: the greater the voltage, the greater is the push (see the focus idea Using energy).

It takes a truck 3.56 seconds to slow down from 112 km/h to 87.4 km/h. What is its average acceleration?
maxonik [38]

Answer:

option B

−1.92 m/s2

Explanation:

Given in the question,

time took by truck to slow down = 3.56 sec

initial speed of truck = 112 km/h

final speed of truck = 87.4 km/h

1 km/h = 0.277778 m/s

112 = 31.1 m/s

87.4 = 24.28 m/s

Formula use to calculate the acceleration

v - u = at

where v is final speed

           u is initial speed

           a is acceleration

           t is time

plug values in the equation

24.28 - 31.1 = a(3.56)

-6.8 = a(3.56)

a = -6.8 / 3.56

a = -1.9 m/s²

With what magnitude of force does a ball of mass 0.75 kilograms need to be hit so that it accelerates at the rate of 25 meters/s
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

Assume that the ball undergoes motion along a straight line. ... F = m A Force = (mass) x (acceleration) The question tells you the mass and the acceleration. All YOU have to do is take the numbers and pluggum into Newton's 2nd law. F = m A = (0.75 kg) (25 m/s²) = (0.75 x 25) kg-m/s² = 18.75 Newtons .
