You have to have electrons that are in the materials conduction band. Then you apply a voltage across the material.

For the electrons in a material to create an electric current THERE MUST BE FLOW OF THE ELECTRONS, CHARGES MUST FLOW CONTINUOUSLY FROM ONE POINT TO ANOTHER.Electric current refers to the continuous flow of electric charges through a material. For an electrons to flow in a material, the material must be a conductor.

How can a 1kg ball have more kinetic energy than a 100kg ball? Explain both using words and by providing a numerical example
MariettaO [177]

1 kg ball can have more kinetic energy than a 100 kg ball as increase in velocity is having greater impact on K.E than increase in mass.

<u>Explanation</u>:

We know kinetic energy can be judged or calculated by two parameters only which is mass and velocity. As kinetic energy is directly proportional to the (velocity)^2 and increase in velocity leads to greater effect on translational Kinetic Energy. Here formula of Kinetic Energy suggests that doubling the mass will double its K.E but doubling velocity will quadruple its velocity:

\text { Kinetic Energy }=\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}

Better understood from numerical example as given:

If a man A having weight 50 kg run with speed 5 m/s and another man B having 100 kg weight run with 2.5 m / s. Which man will have more K.E?

This can be solved as follows:

\text { Kinetic Energy of } \mathrm{A}=\frac{1}{2} 50 \times 5^{2}=625 \mathrm{J}

\text { Kinetic Energy bf } \mathrm{B}=\frac{1}{2} 100 \times 2.5^{2}=312.5 \mathrm{J}

It shows that man A will have more K.E.

Hence 1 kg ball can have more K.E than 100 kg ball by doubling velocity.

Are you better off in an accident where the hood is
horsena [70]

Answer:

you would be better off if the car bounced backwards

Explanation:

because if the hood was dismembered than you have a high chance of very bad injury but if it is just bounced back you would have less chance of getting hurt if properly sitting and seat belted.

From the deepest to the surface, what are the parts of the earth's interior?
shepuryov [24]

The answer is A: Core --> Mantle --> Crust.

Core: The earth's core is the center of the earth, which would ultimately be the deepest. The core is made up of alloy, which is a mixture of many medals, such as iron and nickel.

Mantle: The earth's mantle is the layer between the earths crust and core. Often made of silicate rocks.

Crust: The earth's crust is the outer-most of the three options. Usually made of up different types of rocks.
