What is the difference between A.C. and D.C.?

A.C. stands for alternating current, and the current constantly changes direction. D.C. stands for direct current, and the current only flows in one direction.

what is ohm's law?


A roller coaster car starts stationary at the top of a downwards slope. At the bottom of the slope, it has a speed of 30m/s. Use the conservation of energy to find the vertical height of the slope. (Use g=10 m/s^2)


Using the principle of the conservation of energy, calculate the maximum speed of a ball of 5.0kg that has been dropped from a height of 20m. (Given that the gravitational field strength is equal to 9.8N/kg)


How much work must be done on a 4.0kg frictionless trolley, to accelerate it from rest to a velocity of 5.0m/s?
