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

Physics
1 answer:
tatiyna3 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.

A car travels straight for 20 miles on a road that is 30° north of east. What is the east component of the car’s displacement
Over [174]

The east component of the cars displacement is 17.3 miles.

Trigonometric ratio is used to show the relationship between the sides of a right angled triangle and its angles.

Let x represent the east component of the cars displacement.

Using trigonometric ratio:

cos(30) = x / 20

x = 20 * cos(30)

x = 17.3 miles

The east component of the cars displacement is 17.3 miles.

The periodic table is an arrangement of the chemical elements in the form of a table, ordered by:

-Their atomic number (number of protons)

-Their configuration of electrons

-Their chemical properties

It was progressively developed over time as the scientific knowledge advanced; for this reason many modifications and corrections might be done in the future.

Its usefulness lies in the fact that it allows the existing elements to be organized in a more structured and coherent way, according to the chemical properties they possess. Dividing the table into rows and columns, which represent the periods and groups or families.

Then, with the location and classification of an element according to its group, we can determine how it acts by knowing its chemical and physical characteristics.

This is how with this configuration can be distinguished 4 sets of chemical elements, according to the ease of their atoms to lose or gain electrons, transforming into ions: metals, semimetals, non-metals and noble gases.

This has helped to predict the existence of various elements that have not yet been discovered, because by elements already located in the table and the periodicity found, <u>there are still empty spaces that indicate the composition of the element that has not yet been found</u>.

In addition, this table helps to simplify in some way the teaching of chemical elements and facilitates their learning, as well as their usage in the development of technological innovations.
