hat energy (in J) is dissipated by a lightning bolt having an 18,500 A current, a voltage of 2.05 ✕ 102 MV, and a length of 1.00 ms? b) What mass (in kg) of tree sap could be raise
Ohm's law
Ohm’s law is a prominent concept in physics and electronics. It gives the relation between the current and the voltage. It is used to analyze and construct electrical circuits. Ohm's law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.
Path of Least Resistance
In a series of alternate pathways, the direction of least resistance is the actual or metaphorical route that offers the least resistance to forwarding motion by a given individual or body.
a) What energy (in J) is dissipated by a lightning bolt having an 18,500 A current, a voltage of 2.05 ✕ 102 MV, and a length of 1.00 ms?
b) What mass (in kg) of tree sap could be raised from 18.0°C to its boiling point and then evaporated by this energy, assuming sap has the same thermal characteristics as water?
