Answer:

The flow of electric charge

Explanation:

Electricity:It is defined flow of electric charge.

It is defined as the flow of charge per unit time.

Electric charge can be negative or positive .

Mathematical representation :

If charge Q flowing through the conductor and time taken in flow of charge is t seconds.

Then, current $=I=\frac{Q}{t}$

S.I unit of current is Ampere.It is scalar quantity.

Answer:The flow of electric charge.

The student quickly discovers that placing the marshmallow over the flame is more effective than heating the marshmallow on the

ANEK [815]

Answer:

The answer is convection.

Explanation:

There are three types of heat transfer: conduction, convection and radiation.

Conduction occurs when two objects touch each other and transfer heat.

Convection occurs when an object heats its surrounding fluid (like air, or water) and, since the hot fluids are less dense than the cold ones, they go up. So convection is a type of heat transfer that usually goes from down to up.

Radiation occurs when objects emanate heat in the form of electromagnetic waves that propagates in all directions.

So in this case, when the marshmallow is above the fire, it is exposed to convection, which does not occur when it is on the side of the fire.

Explain how magnetic forces enable a maglev train to float above the tracks. Please help and hurry it’s timed

Furkat [3]

Answer:

We understand that two like poles of magnet repel each other. Maglev train is based on the same concept. The train levitates above the tracks because of repulsion between one set of magnets. One set of magnets lifts the train upwards causing it to levitate or float above tracks and other set of magnets causes it to move forward. This method enables less consumption of energy as loss of energy due to friction is negligible and also, high speed can be achieved.

A 7.00 kg ball hits a 75.0 kg man standing at rest on ice. The man catches the ball. How fast does the ball need to be moving in

<u>Momentum</u>

Momentum Formula: $\overline{P} = m \overline{v}$

P is momentum (in kg · m/s)
m is mass (in kg)
v is velocity (in m/s)

Law of Conservation of Momentum: $\sum \overline{P_i} = \sum \overline{P_f}$

States that the sum of initial momentum must equal the sum of final momentum

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[LCM] $\sum \overline{P_i} = \sum \overline{P_f}$ → $m_{1} \overline{v_{1i}} + m_{2} \overline{v_{2i}} = (m_{1} + m_{2}) \overline{v_{f}}$

m₁ (ball) = 7.00 kg

m₂ (man) = 75.0 kg

$\overline{v_{1i}} = ?$

$\overline{v_{2i}} = 0 \ \frac{m}{s}$ (man starts from rest)

$\overline{v_{f}} = 3.00 \ \frac{m}{s}$ (the ball and the man are one mass because the man catches and <em>keeps</em> the ball)

We know no energy is lost because it is a frictionless surface. The collision should be perfectly elastic.

<u>Step 2: Solve</u>

Substitute in variables [Law of Conservation of Momentum]: $\displaystyle (7.00 \ kg) \overline{v_{1i}} + (75.0 \ kg)(0 \ \frac{m}{s}) = (7.00 \ kg + 75.0 \ kg)(3.00 \ \frac{m}{s})$
Multiply: $\displaystyle (7.00 \ kg) \overline{v_{1i}} + 0 = 246 \ kg \cdot \frac{m}{s}$
Simplify: $\displaystyle (7.00 \ kg) \overline{v_{1i}} = 246 \ kg \cdot \frac{m}{s}$
[Division Property of Equality] Isolate unknown: $\displaystyle \overline{v_{1i}} = \frac{246}{7} \ \frac{m}{s}$
[Evaluate] Divide: $\displaystyle \overline{v_{1i}} = 35.1429 \ \frac{m}{s}$

The initial speed of the ball should be approximately 35.14 m/s.
