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.

¿Cuál de las siguientes magnitudes es derivada?
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

A. El volumen

B. La densidad.

Explanation:

A derived quantity is defined as one that has to be calculated by using two or more other measurements.

Volume is a derived quantity because it requires one to use different measurements to determine it. For instance, in the case of a cube, the length, width and height of the cube are all needed to calculate volume.

Density is also a derived quantity because it needs both volume and mass for it to be calculated.

The difference between the speed of sound n air at 0°C and the speed of sound in air at 20°c is that... A. Cooler air molecules
sergejj [24]
Heat, like sound, is kinetic energy. Molecules at higher temperatures heave more energy, thus they can vibrate faster. Since the molecules vibrate faster, sound waves can travel more quickly. 

So the answer is A.

The launch speed of a projectile is three times the speed it has at its maximum height.what is the elevation angle at launch?
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Given: a projectile of initial launch velocity(V) and launch angle ∅ and no air resistance. At the maximum height, the projectile would have a zero contribution of speed from the vertical component(Vy) Therefore, if we say Vx=Vcos∅ is the only speed the projectile has at the instant of maximum height then we can replace Vx with 1/5V and write 1/5V=Vcos∅. Solving for the the launch angle ∅, gives Inverse Cos(1/5)=78.5 degrees.
