Answer:

Definition of direct current. : an electric current flowing in one direction only and substantially constant in value

Explanation:

Direct current (DC) is the one directional flow of electric charge. An electrochemical cell is a prime example of DC power. Direct current may flow through a conductor such as a wire, but can also flow through semiconductors, insulators, or even through a vacuum as in electron or ion beams. The electric current flows in a constant direction, distinguishing it from alternating current (AC). A term formerly used for this type of current was galvanic current.

A typical student listening attentively to a physics lecture has a heat output of 100 w . how much heat energy does a class of 1
nexus9112 [7]

Since each student emits 100 W, so 170 students will emit:

total heat = 100 W * 170 = 17,000 W

 

Convert minutes to seconds:

time = 50 min * (60 s / min) = 3000 s

 

The energy is therefore:

E = 17,000 W * 3000 s

<span>E = 51 x 10^6 J = 51 MJ</span>
