<span>In direct current (DC), the electric charge (current) only flows in one direction. Electric charge in alternating current (AC), on the other hand, changes direction periodically. The voltage in AC circuits also periodically reverses because the current changes direction.</span>

True or False? In an RL circuit, the larger the value of R (i.e. the resistance of the circuit), the longer it takes the circuit
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

1.False

2.4 E

Explanation:

1.We have to find the statement is true or false.

We know that

Time constant,\tau=\frac{L}{R}

Time constant is inversely proportional to resistance R .It means when R increases then time constant decreases when R decrease then the time  constant decreases.

Statement:The larger the value of R ,the longer it takes the circuit to reach its final steady- state value

It is false.

2.Energy stored in inductor,E=\frac{1}{2}LI^2

When I'=2I

Then, E'=\frac{1}{2}L(2I)^2=\frac{1}{2}LI^2\times 4=4 E

Hence,the new total energy will become 4 E.

What is a magnetic disc that provides long-term storage for programs and data?
kap26 [50]

Answer:

The correct answer is: A HARD DISK

Explanation:

Magnetic Disc stores data of different types and formats that can always be edited or erased at any time. An example of a Magnetic Disc is a Hard Disk.

A hard disk is a type of magnetic storage device inside a computer that store data magnetically usually for the long-term and it could store a large volume of data, though that depends on the size, because it comes in various size. However, it generally allows stored data to be retrieved easily.
