Why do power plants worry about the resistance of the wires? ( PHYSICAL SCIENCE )

Physics
1 answer:
tatiyna2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Resistors restrict current flow through a circuit.

(The electrons don't easily get from one side to the other)

High voltage is actually needed for to send power over long distances because if you use high current, a lot of the power is lost to the resistance in the wires.

If the Moon had twice as much mass and still orbits Earth at the same distance, ocean bulges on Earth would be
Sophie [7]

Ocean bulges on Earth would be bigger if the Moon had twice as much mass and yet orbited the planet at the same distance. Option B is correct.

<h3>What is ocean bludge?</h3>

The fluid and moveable ocean water are drawn towards the moon by the gravitational attraction between the moon and the Earth.

The ocean nearest to the moon experiences a bulge as a result, and as the Earth rotates, the affected seas' locations shift.

The Moon's bulges in the oceans would be larger if it had twice the mass and orbited Earth at the same distance.

Hence option B is corect.

Explain how astronomers might use spectroscopy to determine the composition and temperature of a star.
Damm [24]

Everything starts from spectroscopy. Astronomers only have concentrated information at wavelengths that are emitted from the stars. What they do with this information is to obtain the frequency range of the stars and through spectroscopes they are responsible for dividing the radiation beams and determining the coincidence with the emission of those same waves, of chemical elements. From these observation techniques it is possible to obtain the composition and according to the color, obtaining characteristics such as temperature. The spectrum of stars consists of dark and bright lines called Fraunhofer lines. This spectrum is compared to the spectrum of different elements to find the composition of the stars. This is possible because the elements emit or absorb only specific wavelengths.
