Which of the following statements about electrical resistance is true?
the more resistive the conductor is the slower electron flow will be
Resistance is opposition to the flow of current. As resistance increases, current decreases as resistance and current are inversely proportional.
A a seesaw / teeter-totter is an example of which of the following?
first-class lever
A first-class lever is used to increase force or distance while changing the direction of the force. The lever pivots on a fulcrum and, when a force is applied to the lever at one side of the fulcrum, the other end moves in the opposite direction. The position of the fulcrum also defines the mechanical advantage of the lever. If the fulcrum is closer to the force being applied, the load can be moved a greater distance at the expense of requiring a greater input force. If the fulcrum is closer to the load, less force is required but the force must be applied over a longer distance. An example of a first-class lever is a seesaw / teeter-totter.
What is (z5)4?
To raise a term with an exponent to another exponent, retain the base and multiply the exponents:
(z5)4A biological community of interacting organisms and their physical environment is known as:
ecosystem
An ecosystem is a biological community of interacting organisms and their physical environment. This includes both the biotic (living) and abiotic (non-living).
A __________ electric current produces a magnetic field proportional to the amount of current flow.
moving
A moving electric current produces a magnetic field proportional to the amount of current flow. This magnetic field can be made stronger by winding the wire into a coil and further enhanced if done around an iron containing (ferrous) core.
Which of these layers is found directly below the Earth's crust?
mantle
The crust is the Earth's outermost layer and is divided into oceanic and continental types. Oceanic crust is 3 miles (5 km) to 6 miles (10 km) thick and is composed primarily of denser rock. Continental crust is 20 to 30 miles (30 to 50 km) thick and composed primarily of less dense rock. The crust makes up approximately one percent of the Earth's total volume.
