Current is defined as the rate of charge flowing a point every second. Having a current of 1 Ampere signifies 1 Coulomb is flowing in a circuit every second. It is measured by the use of an ammeter which is positioned in series to the component to be measured. The current in the problem is calculated as follows:
I = 2.0 x 10^-4 C / 5.0 x 10^-5 s
<span>I = 4 A or 4.0 x 10^0 A</span>
Answer:
Line 3 has a mistake.
Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillations of electric and magnetic fields that oscillate perpendicular to the each other. Therefore, Line 1 is correct.
Also, the fields in an electromagnetic waves oscillate perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave: therefore, they are transverse waves. So Line 2 is also correct.
Electromagnetic waves, contrary to mechanical waves, do not need a medium to propagate: so, they can also travel through a vacuum. Therefore, Line 3 is wrong.
Finally, all electromagnetic waves travel through a vacuum at the same speed, called speed of light:
So, Line 4 is also correct.
Answer:
Explanation:
a )
current in the wire = potential diff / resistance
= 23 / (15 x 10⁻³ )
= 1.533 x 10³ A .
b )
For resistance of a wire , the formula is
R = ρ L / S where ρ is specific resistance , L is length and S is cross sectional area of wire
putting the given values
15 x 10⁻³ = 4ρ / π x .003²
ρ = 106 x 10⁻⁹ ohm. m
= 10.6 x 10⁻⁸ ohm m
The metal wire appears to be platinum .
Answer: Well the kinetic energy decreasesTherefore, the thermal energy of an object decreasesas its temperature decreases.
