The correct answer to the question is A) Electrons.

EXPLANATION:

The electrical conductivity of a metal or any substance depends on the free electron concentration of the metals.

Free electrons are those electrons which are present in the conduction band of the metals. These electrons experience less amount of force attraction from the nucleus. Protons and neutrons do not  contribute anything to the current conduction in a metal.These sub atomic particles are bound to the nuclei of atoms.

When we maintain potential difference across the two ends of a conductor, the free electrons are drifted towards the positive terminal of the battery.

Hence, electrical conductivity of a substance is the ability of the electrons to move inside the substance.

More is the conductivity of the substance, the lesser is the resistance to the flow of electrons inside the substance, and vice versa.

1-A train travels 100 km to reach town A in one hour and 15 min. The train stops at station A for 45 minutes. Then it travels 15
kirill [66]

Answer 1) : 62.5 km/hour is the average velocity of the train.

2) The final velocity of the car at the end of 75 m is 14.69 m/s

Explanation:

1) Displacement of the train = 100 km + 150 km = 250 km

Total time train took =1 hour 15 min+ 45 min + 2 hours = 240 min = 4 hours

Average velocity=\frac{Displacement}{time}=\frac{250 km}{4 hour}=62.5 km/h

62.5 km/hour is the average velocity of the train.

2) The acceleration of the car, a= 1.2 m/s^2

Distance covered by the car,s = 75 m

Initial velocity of the car ,v_i = 6 m/s

Final velocity of thre car ,v_f=?

Using third equation of motion:

v_{f}^2=v_{i}^2+2as=(6 m/s)^2+2\times 1.2 m/s\times 75 m=216 m^2/s^2

v_{f}=14.69 m/s

The final velocity of the car at the end of 75 m is 14.69 m/s

Select the correct statement about osmolarity. a) Osmolarity measures the moles of solute per liter of solution. b) The contents
8090 [49]

Answer:

a) Osmolarity measures the moles of solute per liter of solution.

Explanation:

Osmolarity is defined as the number of moles of solute that contribute to the osmotic pressure, per liter of solution, of solution. That is, the measurement of the solute concentration. The prefix "osmo-" indicates the possible variation of the osmotic pressure in the cells, which will occur when the solution is introduced into the body.

A fast-food restaurant uses a conveyor belt to send the burgers through a grilling machine. if the grilling machine is 1.2 m lon
Vinil7 [7]

length of the grilling machine is 1.2 m

time taken to cook the burger is 2.7 min = 162 s

so the speed of the machine should be like this that if must have to cook till it cross the machine

v = \frac{d}{t}

v = \frac{1.2}{162}

v = 7.41* 10^{-3} m/s

now in one minute the total length of the machine that is covered is given by

L = v*t

L = 7.41*10^{-3}* 60 = 44.4 cm

now distance between the burgers is 15 cm

so total production rate will be

N = \frac{44.4}{15} = 3 burger/min

so it will produce 3 burger per minute
