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 photon with wavelength λ = 0.0830 nm is incident on an electron that is initially at rest. if the photon scatters in the backw
QveST [7]
Compton scattering equation of wavelengths 
λ'-λ = h/mec (1 - CosФ)
λ' = λ + h/mec (1 - cos 180°)
= ( 0.0830nm) + (6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s)/ (9.1 × 10⁻³¹ kg)(3.0 × 10⁸ m/s
= 0.0830nm
The momentum of electron is
P photon λ = Pe + P phpton λ'
Pe = h/λ - ( -h/λ') = h(λ' + λ)/λλ'
= (6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(( 0.08785nm) +( 0.0883nm)/0.08785nm)( 0.083nm)
1.55 × 10⁻²³ kg.m/s.

A mass of (200 g) of hot water at (75.0°C) is mixed with cold water of mass M at (5.0°C). The final temperature of the mixture i
MArishka [77]

Answer:

500 g

Explanation:

Specific heat of water = 1 j/g-c

Heat given up by hot water = 200(75-25)(1) = 10 000 j

this is the heat GAINED by the cold water

10000 j =  x ( 25 -5)(1)  

          x =500g
