Answer:
Electrical breakdown.
Explanation:
When two conductors are relatively close enough, and have a very large voltage between them, it can lead to a Dielectric breakdown. A dielectric breakdown occurs when an insulator is subjected to a high enough voltage, suddenly becomes an electrical conductor and electric current flows through it. The air between the conductors is the insulator that breaks down, leading to an electrical discharge arc to flow between the two conductors. This electrical breakdown can cause catastrophic failure of electrical equipment, and fire hazards.
Noble gasses have an outer shell full of electrons. A full outer energy level is the most stable arrangement of electrons. As a result, noble gases cannot become more stable by reacting with other elements and gaining or losing valence electrons. Therefore, noble gases are rarely involved in chemical reactions and almost never form compounds with other elements.
Since the current is inversely propotional to its resistance, when the voltage is doubled the current will be one-half
Answer:
a. the amount of work done on a system is dependent of pathway
Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics states that the change in internal energy of a system equals the net heat transfer into the system minus the net work done by the system.
ΔU = Q - W
Where;
Q, the net heat transfer into the system depends on the pathway
W, the net work done by the system also depends on the pathway
But, ΔU, the change in internal energy is independent of pathway
Therefore, the correct option is "A"
a. the amount of work done on a system is dependent of pathway
