Answer:

walked: 17 meters

displacement: 1

Explanation:

so you add 9+8 and the displacement is 1 b/c when you moved back those 8 meters you were still 1 meter away from where you where originally standing

What unita are used to measure electrical current

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

It's called an ampere!

Explanation:

The SI unit of electric current is the ampere, which is the flow of electric charge across a surface at the rate of one coulomb per second. The ampere (symbol: A) is an SI base unit Electric current is measured using a device called an ammeter.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

The gravitational force is 3.509*10^17 times larger than the electrostatic force.

Explanation:

The Newton's law of universal gravitation and Coulombs law are:

$F_{N}=G m_{1}m_{2}/r^{2}\\F_{C}=k q_{1}q_{2}/r^{2}$

Where:

G= 6.674×10^−11 N · (m/kg)2

k = 8.987×10^9 N·m2/C2

We can obtain the ratio of these forces dividing them:

$\frac{F_{N}}{F_{C}}=\frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{kq_{1}q_{2}}=0.742\times10^{-20}\frac{C^{2}}{kg^{2}}\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{q_{1}q_{2}}$ --- (1)

The mass of the moon is 7.347 × 10^22 kilograms

The mass of the earth is 5.972 × 10^24 kg

And q1=q2=Na*e=(6.022*10^23)*(1.6*10^-19)C=9.635*10^4 C

Replacing these values in eq1:

$\frac{F_{N}}{F_{C}}}}=0.742\times10^{-20}\frac{C^{2}}{kg^{2}}\frac{7.347\times5.972\times10^{46}kg^{2}}{(9.635\times10^{4})^{2}}$

Therefore

$\frac{F_{N}}{F_{C}}}}=3.509\times10^{17}$

This means that the gravitational force is 3.509*10^17 times larger than the electrostatic force, when comparing the earth-moon gravitational field vs 1mol electrons - 1mol protons electrostatic field

The flow of electrons through a circuit is measured in which of the following units? A. electrical pressure B. amperes C. volts

damaskus [11]

The total quantity of electrons that have flowed through a circuit is a
quantity of charge, measured in Coulombs, or in Ampere-seconds.

The <em><u>rate</u></em> of flow of electrons, or more accurately the rate of flow of
the charge on them, is electrical current. Its unit is the Ampere.
1 Ampere is 1 Coulomb of charge per second.
