The rubber and plastic used in protective clothing do not allow the flow of electric charge

Physics
1 answer:
erica [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Insulators are the material that does not allow electricity to pass easily through them. The reason behind using an insulator as a protective layer on an electrical wire or appliances is that they show good resistance to electricity. That prevents us from getting an electrical shock. And rubber and plastics are good examples of the insulator.

Hence our statement is true.

If a battery causes a wire to carry a current of 4 Amps how many coulombs of charge flow past any point in the wire in 3 seconds
BabaBlast [244]

▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪  {\huge\mathfrak{Answer}}▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪

According to above question ~

  • Current (I) = 4 Amperes

  • Time (t) = 3 seconds

  • Charge (q) = ?

Let's find the charge (q) by using formula ~

  • I =  \dfrac{q}{t}

  • 4 =  \dfrac{q}{3}

  • q = 4 \times 3

  • q = 12 \:  \: coulombs

Hence, 12 coulombs of charge flow past any point in the wire in 3 seconds

he Hobbits are building a watchtower so they can prepare to battle in case trolls decide to attack them. One Hobbit will always
joja [24]

Answer:

5m/8

Explanation:

Function T gives the time the Hobbits have to prepare for the attack, T(k), in minutes, as a function of troll's distance, k, in meters.

Function V gives visibility from the watchtower, V(m), in meters, as a function of the height of the watchtower, m, in meters.

Therefore, T(V(m)) will give the time the Hobbits have to prepare for the troll attack as a function of the height, m, of the watchtower.

We can input m into function V to obtain the visibility from watchtower, V(m), in meters. Since visibility indicates the distance you can see, this also gives the distance of the trolls. This can then be input into function T to obtain the time that the Hobbits have to prepare for a troll attack.

Let's find T(V(m)) by substituting the formula for V(m) into function T as shown below.

T(V(M))=T(50m)

=50m/80

We can simplify this as follows:

=50m/80

=5m/8

A physics major is cooking breakfast when he notices that the frictional force between the steel spatula and the Oiled Steel fry
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

N  = 6.67 N

Explanation:

The frictional or frictional force is a force that arises from the contact of two bodies and opposes movement.

The friction is due to imperfections and roughness, mainly microscopic, that exist on the surfaces of the bodies. Upon contact, these roughnesses engage with each other making movement difficult. To minimize the effect of friction, either the surfaces are polished or lubricated, since the oil fills the imperfections, preventing them from snagging.

As the frictional force depends on the materials and the force exerted on one another, its magnitude is obtained by the following expression:

f = μ*N    Formula (1)

where:  

f is the friction force  (N)

μ is the coefficient of friction

N is the normal force (N)

Data

f = 0.2 N : frictional force between the steel spatula and the Oiled Steel frying pan

μ = 0.03 :coefficient of kinetic friction between the two materials

Calculating of normal force

We replace data in the formula (1)

f = μ*N  

0.2  = 0.03*N  

N  = 0.2 / 0.03

N  = 6.67 N
