Volt, unit of electrical potential, potential difference and electromotive force in the metre–kilogram–second system (SI); it is equal to the difference in potential between two points in a conductor carrying one ampere current when the power dissipated between the points is one watt

Answer:

volt, unit of electrical potential, potential difference and electromotive force in the metre–kilogram–second system (SI); it is equal to the difference in potential between two points in a conductor carrying one ampere current when the power dissipated between the points is one watt.

The volts (symbol V) measure the different potential energy that exists between one point and the other. The volts are thus named in honor of Alessandro Volta, the inventor of the battery.

Batteries move anions (negatively charged things) and cations (positively charged things) to opposite terminals, creating a voltage. Voltage is better expressed as electric potential.

Voltage is the electrical force that causes free electrons to move from one atom to another. Just as water needs some pressure to force it through a pipe, electrical current needs some force to make it flow. "Volts" is the measure of "electrical pressure" that causes current flow.

Light of wavelength 480 nm illuminates a double slit, and the interference pattern is observed on a screen. At the position of t
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

BC =980nm

Explanation:

Given wavelength =490nm

m=2

Required to find (OB - OC) = BC (more distant slit - nearest slit ) = dsin theta

We have dsin theta = m*wavelength

or BC = m* wavelength = 2*490nm

= 980nm = 98.000A

Two representative elements are in the same period of the periodic table. Which statement correctly describes the atoms of the t
oksian1 [2.3K]

Elements in the periodic table are arranged in the increasing order of their atomic number.

An atom will contain equal amount of protons and electrons. If two elements are in same period of periodic table then these elements will have same number of electrons.

Helium is one of the seven elements which are called as noble gases. This gas is odorless, tasteless and colorless which makes it unique from other elements.

It has two valence electrons while atoms of other elements in the group have 8 valence electrons.

Lithium has one valence electron, while calcium atom has 2 valence electrons.

The highest level of energy is due valence electrons of an atom.  The correct answer is Lithium.

Fluorine element has 9 electrons. There are 2 electrons in the first energy level and seven electrons in the second energy level.

Does a stove have mechanical energy
Ainat [17]

-- Any object has gravitational potential energy relative to any place
lower than where the object is.  The stove in the kitchen has potential
energy relative to the basement floor.

-- If an object is not moving, then it has no kinetic energy. The stove has
no kinetic energy unless you throw it or drop it out of a window.

Difference between relaxation time and collision time?
Black_prince [1.1K]
For the answer to the question above, let us first start with relaxation time. it is the absence of an external electric field, the free electrons in a metallic substance will move in random directions so that the resultant velocity of free electrons in any direction is equal to zero. While the Collision time it is<span> the mean </span>time<span> required for the direction of motion of an individual type particle to deviate through approximately as a consequence of </span>collisions<span> with particles of type.</span>

discharge occurs when oppositely charged objects get close enough for the air between them to become electrically charged.
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

It does both. Once they get close enough the air does start to get charged, but then they eventually discharge when they touch.
