Explain the difference between a conductor and an insulator. Give two examples of each.

1 answer:

3 0

There are different kinds of conductors, most notably electrical and thermal conductors. But they are often inclusive of each other (electrical conductors are typically good thermal conductors). A conductor transmits something through its body with high efficiency while an insulator does not transmit very well. In the case of electricity, a conductor transmits electrical energy between two points while an insulator blocks the flow of electricity. Two examples of conductors are copper and silver. Two examples of insulators are wood and styrofoam.

When a cup is placed on a table, which force prevents the cup from falling to the ground?

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

B. normal force

Explanation:

Because there is no frictional or resistance force. However gravitational force is applied downroad from the center of the cup thus the contact force that is perpendicular to the surface that an object contacts which is the normal force exerted upward from the table that prevents an object from falling.

What is kepler's law??

Elan Coil [88]

<h2>QUESTION:- </h2>

➜what is kepler's law??

$\huge\red{\boxed{\huge\mathbb{\red A \pink{N}\purple{S} \blue{W}\orange{ER}}}}$

Kepler gave the three laws or theorems of motion of the orbitals bodies

${\huge {\bold{ \red{ \star}}}}{ \blue{ \bold{FIRST \: \: \: LAW}}}$

This law state that the celestial bodies revolves around the stars in elliptical orbit and star as a single focus.

Example :- Earth revolves around the Sun as assuming it as single focus

This also shows that earth revolves around the sun in elliptical orbit.

${\huge {\bold{ \blue{ \star}}}}{ \green{ \bold{SECOND \: \: \: LAW}}}$

Area covered by the planet is equal in equal duration of time irrespective of the position of the planet.

It also states that Angular momentum is constant

As Angular momentum is constant it means areal velocity is also constant.

$\frac{ \triangle \: A}{ \triangle \: T} = \frac{L}{2m}△T△A=2mL$

where:-

A is the area.

T is the time.

L is the angular momentum.

M is the mass of the body.

${\huge {\bold{ \green{ \star}}}}{ \purple{ \bold{THIRD \: \: \: LAW}}}$

square of the time of the revolution is directly proportional to the cube of the distance between the planet and star in Astronomical unit.

${T}^{2} = {a}^{3}T2=a3$

where:-

T = time of revolution

a is the distance between the planet and star.

A tennis ball is thrown into

liraira [26]

Answer:

Velocity (v) is a vector quantity that measures displacement (or change in position, Δs) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation v = Δs/Δt. Speed (or rate, r) is a scalar quantity that measures the distance traveled (d) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation r = d/Δt.
