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.

A 5000 kg African elephant has a resting metabolic rate of 2500 W. On a hot day, the elephant's environment is likely to be near
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

36 kg

Explanation:

To answer this question, a few assumptions have to be made:

  • That the temperature on the day is 35 °C
  • That all the heat from the elephant is goes to warming/evaporating the water on the surface of the elephant

Energy released per hour = 2500 J/s * 3600 s = 9 000 000 J

Q = mcΔT

9 000 000 J= m *4.186 J/g-K * (373K - 308K) + m*2260 J/g

m =  36 000 g = 36 kg

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

the magnitude of a uniform electric field that will stop these protons in a distance of 2 m is 10143.57 V/m or 1.01 × 10⁴ V/m

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Kinetic energy of each proton that makes up the beam = 3.25 × 10⁻¹⁵ J

Mass of proton = 1.673 × 10⁻²⁷ kg

Charge of proton = 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

distance d = 2 m

we know that

Kinetic Energy = Charge of proton × Potential difference ΔV

so

Potential difference ΔV = Kinetic Energy / Charge of proton

we substitute

Potential difference ΔV = ( 3.25 × 10⁻¹⁵ ) / ( 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ )

Potential difference ΔV = 20287.14 V

Now, the magnitude of a uniform electric field that will stop these protons in a distance of 2 m will be;

E = Potential difference ΔV / distance d

we substitute

E = 20287.14 V / 2 m

E = 10143.57 V/m or 1.01 × 10⁴ V/m

Therefore, the magnitude of a uniform electric field that will stop these protons in a distance of 2 m is 10143.57 V/m or 1.01 × 10⁴ V/m

A block of metal is 3 cm on each side. It has a mass of 283.5 grams. What is the density of the metal.
Luden [163]
Density =  \frac{Mass}{Volume}
\\\rho=\frac{m}{V}
\\\\\rho=\frac{283.5}{3^3}
\\\\\rho=\frac{283.5}{27}
\\\\\rho = 10.5  g/cm^3
