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.

A bowling ball is rolling in a straight line toward the pins at a speed of 2.2 m/s. Its momentum is 4.75 kg*m/s. What is the

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer: m= 2.16 kg

Explanation: Momentum is expressed in the following formula:

p = mv

Derive to find m:

m = p / v

= 4.75 kg.m/s / 2.2 m/s

= 2.16 kg

Cancel out m/s and the remaining unit is in kg.

A. If a T-Rex runs 20 meters in 4 seconds, what is it’s average speed?

mariarad [96]

5m/s

100m

Explanation:

Average speed is sum of distance distance traveled in a given time by a body.

Average speed= $\frac{total distance covered}{time taken}$

Distance = 20m

time = 4s

Average speed = $\frac{20}{4}$ = 5m/s

For the spaceship;

Distance covered = speed x time

Speed = 50m/s

time = 2s

Distance covered = 50 x 2 = 100m

Suppose our apparatus will only allow us to distinguish the first order bright fringe from the central bright spot if they are s

ozzi

Answer:

λ = 8.716 mm

Explanation:

Given:

- d = 10 cm

- Q >= 5 degrees

Find:

- Find the shortest wavelength of light for which this apparatus is useful

Solution:

- The formula that relates the split difference and angle of separation between successive fringes is given by:

d*sin(Q) = n*λ

Where,

λ: wavelength

d: split separation

Q: angle of separation between successive fringes

m: order number.

- Since this apparatus only shows the first order light so m =1

- the shortest possible wavelength corresponds to:

d*sin(Q) = λ

λ = 0.1*sin(5)

λ = 8.716 mm

Xelga [282]

Answer:

0.0002

Explanation:

First you have to solve exponents first, so you solve 10 to the power of negative 4 which is 0.0001 and now you have 2.0x0.0001 and that equals 0.0002
