Answer:

<h2>Conductors</h2>

The substances which allow an electric current to pass through it is called conductors.

Example: Metals like copper,iron ,graphite etc.

<h2>Insulators</h2>

The substances which do not allow the electric current to pass through is called Insulators.

Example: Glass, dry wood ,plastic etc.

Hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment...

DiKsa [7]

Answer:(a)360N,(b)171N,(c)2.702m

Explanation:

(a)Maximum Friction Force = $\mu \left ( N\right )=0.4\times \left ( 740+160\right )$

=360 N

$cos\theta =\frac{3}{5}$

$sin\theta =\frac{4}{5}$

(b)Moment about Ground Point

$740\times 1\times cos\theta +2.5\times 160\times cos\theta -N_15sin\theta$

$N_1tan\theta =1140$

$N_1=171 N$

$N_1=f=171 N$

(c)

$740\times x\times cos\theta +2.5\times 160\times cos\theta -N_15sin\theta$

Here maximum friction force can be 360 N

Therefore $N_1=360 N$

Where x is the maximum distance moved by man along the ladder

$360\times 5\times \frac{4}{3}=740x+160\times 2.5$

740x=2000

x=2.702m

An astronaut lands on a new, recently discovered planet in a different star system. The astronaut measures the acceleration due

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

The radius of the new planet is ~2.04 * 10⁶ m, or 2,041,752 m.

Explanation:

We can use Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation:

$\displaystyle F_g=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}$

Let's look at Newton's 2nd Law:

$F=ma$

We can set these equations equal to each other:

$\displaystyle G\frac{Mm}{r^2} =ma$

The mass of the second mass (astronaut) cancels out. We are left with:

$\displaystyle G\frac{M}{r^2} =a$

We are solving for the radius of the new planet, so we can rearrange the equation:

$\displaystyle r=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{a} }$

Substitute in our known values given in the problem (G = 6.67 * 10⁻¹¹ ; M = 7.5 * 10²³ ; a = 12).

$\displaystyle r =\sqrt{\frac{(6.67\times 10^{-11})(7.5 \times 10^{23}}{12} }$
$r=2.04 \times 10^6$

The radius of the new planet is ~2.04 * 10⁶ m.
