Hi there!
We can use the equation:
d = x₀ + vt, where:
x₀ = initial distance from the reference point
v = velocity (m/s)
t = time (sec)
Plug in the given values:
d = 248 + 5(49)
d = 493m
Explanation:
Tremendous heat and pressure within the earth cause the hot magma to flow in convection currents. These currents cause the movement of the tectonic plates that make up the earth's crust.
Answer:
Current flows in a resistor-capacitor circuit because of the varying electric field across the plates of a capacitor induced by an AC voltage source <em>(displacement current)</em>
Explanation:
In a capacitor, current does not flow the same way it does in a circuit, that is through conduction. This is because there is a highly resistive material in between the plates of the capacitor. Rather current flows through a phenomenon called displacement current.
Because of change in charge accumulation with time above the plates, the electric field changes causing the displacement current.
Displacement current arises due to the flow of electrons as a result of the varying magnetic fields set up on the plates of the capacitor when supplied with an AC voltage. It is important to note that a DC voltage does not induce any displacement current.
<em>Through this, phenomenon discovered by Maxwell, current is able to flow in a resistor-capacitor circuit despite the absence of an electrically conductive path through the plates.</em>
