Air pressure pushing in on the balloon decreases as the balloon rises.
Answer:
C. a disturbance that travels through a medium with a transfer of energy and without a transfer of matter
Explanation:
A wave is any disturbance that transfers energy from one location to the other via a substance called medium. It is important to note that a wave only conveys energy and not matter. For example, sound wave is a type of wave that carries sound energy from one place to another via mediums such as water, air etc.
Hence, according to this question, a wave can be described as a disturbance that travels through a medium with a transfer of energy and WITHOUT A TRANSFER OF MATTER.
Answer:
which corresponds to the second option shown: "voltage times amperage"
Explanation:
The electric power is the work done to move a charge Q across a given difference of potential V per unit of time.
Since such electrical work is the product of the potential difference V times the charge that moves through that potential, and this work is to be calculated by the unit of time, we need to divide the product by time (t) which leads to the following final simple equation:
Notice that we replaced the quotient representing charge per unit of time (Q/t) by the actual current running through the circuit.
This corresponds to the second option shown in the question: "Voltage times amperage".
Refer to the figure below.
R = resistance.
Case 1:
The voltage source is V₁ and the current is 10 mA. Therefore
V₁ = (10 mA)R
Case 2:
The voltage source is V₂ and the current is 8 mA. Therefore
V₂ = (8 mA)R
Case 3:
The voltage across the resistance is V₁ - V₂. Therefore the current I is given by
V₁ - V₂ = IR
10R - 8R = (I mA)R
2 = I
The current is 2 mA.
Answer: 2 mA
