Choices 'C' and 'D' are both correct.
(Except in 'C', changing the temperature from 1°C to 3°C is not usually
described as 'cooling', and it's not the water's 'mass' that changes. But
water does contract in volume during that change.)

Answer: The Systeme international (International System of Units
)</h2>
The International System of Units (SI) is used in almost every country in the world (<em>except Burma, Liberia and the United States</em>).
This system was created in 1960 by the 11th General Conference of Weights and Measures in France and is made up of seven basic units:
-Ampere (electric current)
-Kelvin (temperature)
-Second (time)
-Meter (length)
-Kilogram (mass)
-Candela (luminous intensity)
-Mol (amount of substance) *added to the system in 1971
Plus an unlimited number of derived units from the main ones.
Answer:
(a) 43.2 kC
(b) 0.012V kWh
(c) 0.108V cents
Explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
- i = current flow = 3 A
- t = time interval for which the current flow =

- V = terminal voltage of the battery
- R = rate of energy = 9 cents/kWh
<u>Assume:</u>
- Q = charge transported as a result of charging
- E = energy expended
- C = cost of charging
Part (a):
We know that the charge flow rate is the electric current flow through a wire.

Hence, 43.2 kC of charge is transported as a result of charging.
Part (b):
We know the electrical energy dissipated due to current flow across a voltage drop for a time interval is given by:

Hence, 0.012V kWh is expended in charging the battery.
Part (c):
We know that the energy cost is equal to the product of energy expended and the rate of energy.

Hence, 0.108V cents is the charging cost of the battery.
Answer:
The answer is based on the conservation of energy law; something you should really understand by now.
For convenience we can hold one of the two charges still; it becomes the frame of reference. And everything we say is in reference to the designated static charge, call it Q.
So the moving charge, call it q, has total energy TE = PE. It's all potential energy as we start with q not moving.
It has potential energy because in order to separate q from Q, we had to do work, add energy, on q. And from the COE law, that work added is converted into PE.
It's a bit like lifting something off the ground. That's work and it becomes GPE. So there's some work, in separating the two charges in the first place.
But there's more.
Now we let q go. As opposites attract, q is pulled to Q. And that force from Q is working on q, force over distance. Which means the potential energy q started with is being converted into kinetic energy. q is accelerating and picking up speed.
And there's more work, done by the EMF on charge q. That converts the PE into KE and the q charge smashes into Q with some kinetic energy.
