The cause of electric current in a wire is that there is electron flow due to electrical attraction and repulsion.

What is Electric current?

The rate of flow of electric charge through a point is known as electric current. The electric current is nothing but the flow of electrons in general.

Consider a space, when electrons of charge (e) is flowing through the space in a given time interval t. Then,

I = e/t

here,

I is the electric current.

Moreover, there is a flow of electrons in a wire due to a potential difference existing at the circuit. Due to that, electrons always flow from high electric potential to low electric potential.

Thus, we can conclude that the cause of electric current in a wire is that there is electron flow due to electrical attraction and repulsion.

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Explanation:

Spring has a tendency to store energy in them and deform its shape when force is applied on it. Once the applied force is removed it regains its original shape and size.

It is in helical shape and is used in mattress to give structure and support. Spring have elastic nature and follows spring forces, F = k * x

where is the applied force, k is the spring constant and x is the amount of extension.

When a heavier person sits on a mattress, more weight is applied on springs and they form coils, as weight is removed they regains its shape again.

A viscous fluid is flowing through two horizontal pipes. They have the same length, although the radius of one pipe is three tim
Rudik [331]

The conservation of the mass of fluid through two sections (be they A1 and A2) of a conduit (pipe) or current tube establishes that the mass that enters is equal to the mass that exits. Mathematically the input flow must be the same as the output flow,

Q_1 = Q_2

The definition of flow is given by

Q =VA

Where

V = Velocity

A = Area

The units of the flow of flow are cubic meters per second, that is to say that if there is a continuity, the volume of input must be the same as that of output, what changes if the sections are modified are the proportions of speed.

In this way

Q_A = Q_B

Q_B = 2.94*10^2 m^3/s

A projectile is launched vertically at 100 m/s. If air resistance can be ignored, at what speed will it return to its initial le
eduard
<h2>Speed with which it return to its initial level is 100 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

Initial velocity, u = 100 m/s  

Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²  

Final velocity, v = ?

Displacement, s = 0 m  

Substituting  

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 100² + 2 x -9.81 x 0

v² = 100²

v = ±100 m/s

+100 m/s is initial velocity and -100 m/s is final velocity.

Speed with which it return to its initial level is 100 m/s
