Hunter-Best [27]3 years ago
6 0

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.

How much time will it take to perform 440 joule of work at a rare of 11 w?​
kifflom [539]

Answer:

40sec

Explanation:

Data

Work = 440 J

Power= 11watt

time = ?

Power = work done/time

===> time = work done/power

= 440/11

= 40sec

How does the search for exoplanets help us describe how science requires creativity?
Aliun [14]

Answer:

As the planets are very small and dark in comparison with stars, it makes them very hard to be found from earth.

Explanation:

Astronomy, of course, has a solution for this. As astronomers can't observe planets directly, they decided to observe the stars and search for the effects that planets have on them.

There are many ways of observing the exoplanets: Radial Velocity, Transit Photometry, Microlensing, Astrometry, Direct Imaging, etc.

Before all of this, scientist had to find ways to prove their theories. Most of their time they have spent in giving the creative answers.

Science and creativity are very much connected when we speak about the development of science. Rationality and creativity always go together.

In order to create an idea that other people will consider useful, it is important to use creativity. As no one has the exact answer when it comes to science, the adventure is to research the unknown.

Can anyone tell me what's the base quantities for Force, Pressure and Charge?​
mr Goodwill [35]

Force, pressure, and charge are all what are called <em>derived units</em>. They come from algebraic combinations of <em>base units</em>, measures of things like length, time, temperature, mass, and current. <em>Speed, </em>for instance, is a derived unit, since it's a combination of length and time in the form [speed] = [length] / [time] (miles per hour, meters per second, etc.)

Force is defined with Newton's equation F = ma, where m is an object's mass and a is its acceleration. It's unit is kg·m/s², which scientists have called a <em>Newton</em>. (Example: They used <em>9 Newtons</em> of force)

Pressure is force applied over an area, defined by the equation P = F/A. We can derive its from Newtons to get a unit of N/m², a unit scientists call the <em>Pascal</em>. (Example: Applying <em>100 Pascals </em>of pressure)

Finally, charge is given by the equation Q = It, where I is the current flowing through an object and t is how long that current flows through. It has a unit of A·s (ampere-seconds), but scientist call this unit a Coulomb. (Example: 20 <em>Coulombs</em> of charge)
