The reciprocal of resistance or measure of a devices ability to conduct is called Conductance. Conductance is the ability of material that allows electricity to pass through it. The unit of conductance is seimens. It can also be represented by "mho" , inverse of "ohm" which is unit of resistance. Best example of conductive metals are silver and copper. Materials that allows conductivity are called Conductor. Material that partially allows conductivity are called Semi-conductor. Material that does not allow conductivity are called Insulator.

Conductance can also be defined as ability to flow. The term conductance is not only used for electrical conductivity, but it is also used for thermal conductivity and fluid conductivity.

What type of friction present when you wrench on a car?
dlinn [17]

Answer:Rolling friction is friction that acts on objects when they are rolling over a surface. Rolling friction is much weaker than sliding friction or static friction. This explains why most forms of ground transportation use wheels, including bicycles, cars, 4-wheelers, roller skates, scooters, and skateboards.

De manera individual subraya la respuesta correcta: A) El Método Científico de la física experimental y su búsqueda de respuesta
alexira [117]

Answer:

a. La ciencia.

Explicación:

El método científico de la física experimental y su búsqueda de respuestas tiene un principio básico que es la ciencia. La ciencia es la aplicación del conocimiento del mundo natural y social siguiendo una metodología sistemática basada en evidencias. Sin evidencias no hay aceptación de la observación ni se debe hacer teoría porque la evidencia es el principal criterio para aceptar o rechazar una hipótesis.

Bjorn is holding a tennis ball outside a second floor window (3.5 meters from the ground) and billie jean is holding one outside
MArishka [77]
The answer is 1.01 x 10^(-11) N. I arrived to this answer through calculating the GPEs of both balls. Bjorn's ball has a GPE of 1.402 x 10^(-11) N. Billie Jean's ball has a GPE of <span>2.503 x 10^(-11) N. I subtracted the two and I found that Billie Jean's tennis ball has a GPE of 1.01 x 10^(-11) more than Bjorn's tennis ball.</span>

Two massless bags contain identical bricks, each brick having a mass M. Initially, each bag contains four bricks, and the bags m
stepladder [879]

Answer: F_{2}=\frac{3}{4}F_{1}

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation:

F=G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^2}

Where:

F is the module of the force exerted between both bodies

G is the universal gravitation constant.

m_{1} and m_{2} are the masses of both bodies.

r is the distance between both bodies

In this case we have two situations:

1) Two bags with masses 4M and 4M mutually exerting a gravitational attraction F_{1} on each other:

F_{1}=G\frac{(4M)(4M)}{r^2}   (1)

F_{1}=G\frac{16M^2}{r^2}   (2)

F_{1}=16\frac{GM^2}{r^2}   (3)

2) Two bags with masses 2M and 6M mutually exerting a gravitational attraction F_{2} on each other (assuming the distance between both bags is the same as situation 1):

F_{2}=G\frac{(2M)(6M)}{r^2}   (4)

F_{2}=G\frac{12M^2}{r^2}   (5)

F_{2}=12\frac{GM^2}{r^2}   (6)

Now, if we isolate \frac{GM^2}{r^2} from (3):

\frac{F_{1}}{16}=\frac{GM^2}{r^2}   (7)

Substituting \frac{GM^2}{r^2}  found in (7) in (6):

F_{2}=12(\frac{F_{1}}{16})   (8)

F_{2}=\frac{12}{16}F_{1}   (9)

Simplifying, we finally get the expression for F_{2}  in terms of F_{1} :

F_{2}=\frac{3}{4}F_{1}
