Answer:

Option C, the current is constant through the wire.

Explanation:

Ok, so we know that as larger cross-section we have, smaller resistance, so makes sense to think that the current will be larger in the first piece of wire.

But now let's think in a simpler case.

Suppose that in the image we see pipes, and through these pipes, there is water flowing.

You would say that the water flow in WX is larger than the current in XY?

No, it can´t be, the volume of water that leaves WX in a lapse of time Δt, must be the exact same volume of water that enters XY in that lapse of time, then the water flow is constant.

The only thing that can happen is that the velocity at which the water moves in WX is smaller than the velocity at which the water moves in the other parts.

The same thing happens here, the current will be constant, and the thing that changes is the velocity at which the electrons flow in each part of the wire.

So if you actually had a wire like this, you would see that the thinner parts heat a lot more than the others, and this happens because the electrons in those parts have a lot more kinetic energy.

The correct graph is C.

A electric heater that draws 13.5 a of dc current has been left on for 10 min. how many electrons that have passed through the h
kicyunya [14]
By definition, Ampere is a unit of current which is a measure of the amount of charge passing through a point in a circuit per unit  of time, with an equivalent charge of 1.602 x 10^(-19) Coulomb per electron. To determine the number of electrons passing through the heater, we use the definition of the current. We calculate as follows:

13.5 A = 13.5 C per second
Charge = 13.5 C/s (10 min) ( 60 s / 1 min)
Charge = 8100 C 

Number of electrons = 8100 C / 1.602 x 10^(-19) C per electron
Number of electrons = 5.1 x 10^22 electrons

Therefore, there are 5.1 x10^22 electrons that assed through the heater for 10 minutes.

Find the minor measurement of the vernier scale by taking 49, 1mm divisions of the main scale and dividing it into 50 vernier di
olga nikolaevna [1]
<h2>♨ANSWER♥</h2>

length of V-50 = 49mm

length of V-1 = 49/50mm

= 0.98mm

so,

minor measurement = (M-1) - (V-1)

= 1mm -0.98mm

= 0.02mm

☆ Therefore,

The minor measurement of the vernier scale is 0.02mm.

A boat is able to move through still water at 20 m/s. It makes a round trip to a town 3.0 km upstream. If the river flows at 5m/
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Option e) 320 s

Explanation:

Here, distance = 3.0 km = 3000 m

The velocity of boat when it is going upstream;

Upstream velocity = velocity of boat in still water - velocity of river flow

So, Upstream velocity =20m/s-5m/s=15m/s

So,Time to go upstream

(t_{1}) =\frac{Distance}{Velocity}=\frac{3000m}{15m/s} =200 s

The velocity of boat when it is going downstream;

Downstream velocity = velocity of boat in still water + velocity of river flow

So, Downstream velocity =20m/s+5m/s=25m/s

So,Time to go downstream

(t_{2}) =\frac{Distance}{Velocity}=\frac{3000m}{25m/s} =120 s

So, total time (t) = t_{1}+t_{2}=200s+120 s=320s

Option E is the correct answer.

Is visible light a form of<br> radiation? Explain.
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Yes,in fact visible 'light' is a form of radiation, which can be defined as an energy that travels in the form of electromagnetic waves. It can also be described as a flow of particle-like 'wave-packets', called photons, that travel constantly at the speed of light (about 300 000 kilometres per second).

professor190 [17]
Neither set of choices is correct.

If the distance is tripled, then the forces decrease to

1/9 Fg. and. 1/9 Fe.

Note. When the objects are charged, the gravitational force Fg can almost always be ignored, since Fe is like 10^40 greater when the quantities of mass and charge are similar.
