Explanation:

When a meteoroid enters the earth's atmosphere at high speed, a streak of light called meteor is observed. This light effect is produced by the ionization of air molecules in the upper atmosphere (at altitudes from 76 to 100 km). Most of these are the size of a grain of sand.

fomenos

RC circuit determines the capacitor's charging rate.

  • In RC (resistive and capacitive) circuits, a capacitor's time constant is the number of seconds required to charge it to 63.2% of the input voltage.
  • This duration is described by a single time constant. After two time constants, the capacitor will be charged to 86.5% of the input voltage.
  • The RC time constant, also referred to as tau, is the time constant (in seconds) of an RC circuit and is obtained by multiplying the circuit resistance (in ohms) by the circuit capacitance (in farads), This transient reaction time T is stated in terms of = R x C, where R is the resistor value in ohms and C is the capacitor value in farads.

The greater the mass is in an object, the higher resistance to a change in movement the object will have. Please select the best
Fofino [41]
This statement is true. The greater the mass is in an object, it is indeed the higher resistance to a change in movement the object will have. That only mean that the mass of an object and its resistance to change of movement is directly proportional.
