Why is alternating current more effective at long–distance travel than direct current? a. the power lines are made out of conductors. b. transformers increase or decrease voltage as needed. c. the ac generator is more efficient. d. ac has lower voltage than dc.

Suppose a wire with a current is pushed upward by a magnetic field. how would the wire move if the direction of the current reversed? explain your answer.

The astronauts on the space shuttle flights experienced an acceleration of 29 m/s2 (about 3 "g's") during lift-off. what upward force must the astronaut's seat apply to the astronaut in order to cause this acceleration? assume the astronaut's mass is 70 kg, and compute this force when the acceleration is near the earth's surface so their weight equals latex: mg m g .
