Answer:
A. aluminum, iron, and silver only
Explanation:
metal elements are great conductors; aluminum, iron, and silver are all metals.
plastic isn't an element, but it still doesn't conduct electricity very well because it isn't a metal
(so I would leave out plastic, because you can only choose 3 max based on the answer choices)
Answer:
1. Since the carpet is softer than the concrete and the force of impact is reduced by the extended time of impact.
Explanation.
The carpet provides energy dissipation over a porous layer of material.
Because of this, the carpet behaves as if it was a spring and a dashpot.
The spring absorbs the kinetic energy, and the dashpot dissipates the energy.
The ticker the carpet, the better the energy dissipation will be.
The net charge of the asteroid is

with a negative sign since it is a net negative charge.
The charge of one electron is

In order to find what is the excess of electrons on the asteroid, we must simply divide the net charge in excess on the asteroid by the charge of a single electron, and we find:
