Imagine that heike onnes cooled mercury down to absolute zero and there was still resistance. would he have discovered supercond

uctivity? yes, because he was working with mercury, which has superconductive properties yes, because he would have observed it at 4.2 k no, because superconductivity cannot occur in mercury since it is a liquid no, because superconductivity cannot occur if there is resistance

No, because superconductivity cannot occur if there is resistance

In addition to explaining electrical resistance, equilibrium distance theory also foretells the existence of superconductivity. According to its postulates, electrical resistivity decreases with distance from the equilibrium. There is only superconductivity at zero distance, with no resistance

<h3>What is Superconductivity ?</h3>

The ability of some materials to transmit electric current with virtually little resistance is known as superconductivity.

  • This ability has intriguing and maybe beneficial ramifications. Low temperatures are necessary for a material to exhibit superconductor behaviour. H. K. made the initial discovery of superconductivity in 1911.
  • Aluminum, magnesium diboride, niobium, copper oxide, yttrium barium, and iron pnictides are a few well-known examples of superconductors.

A 4kg book sits on a table and your pet hamster puts his front paws on the book and pushes down with a force of 3N. What is the
Natali [406]
There are three forces acting on the book. 
1. Force due to gravity
2. Force exerted downward by the hamster
3. Normal Force in reaction to the downward forces

Since the book is not moving, the net force is zero. The summation of all forces must be zero. Then we could find the normal force which is unknown (denoted as x).

∑F = -(4 kg)(9.81 m/s2) - 3 N + x =0
∑F = -39.24 N - 3N + x =0
x = 42 N

Therefore, the normal force is 42 N.

3. An explosion of gas from a Hawaiian volcano blows a bunch of rocks into the sky. Each has 2000J of
anzhelika [568]

Answer: 3.906kg

Explanation:

K.E = 2000J

V = 32m/s

m =?

K.E = 1/2MV2

2000 = 1/2M x (32^2)

2000 = 1/2M x 1024

2000 = 512M

M = 2000/512

M = 3.906kg

Why do polar compounds tend to have higher melting points than nonpolar compounds
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

The inter-molecular forces holding non-polar compounds together is low compare to that of polar compounds. Therefore, it will take less energy to break the bond for non-polar compounds and vice versa. That is why polar compounds have higher melting points than non-polar compounds.
