Copper is a metal commonly used for electrical wiring in houses. Which metal conducts electricity better than copper at 20°C?

1 answer:

6 0

The correct answer is silver metal.
Conductivity measures the ability of a material or a metal to transmit energy, conductivity may be electrical, thermal or acoustical conductivity. The most electrical conductive element is silver, followed by copper and Gold. Silver also has the highest thermal conductivity as compare to any element. However, copper and Gold are more often used in electrical applications since copper is less expensive and gold has a much higher corrosion resistance.

Answer:3,600 Newtons

Explanation:

The net force acting on the car is

3×10^3squared

Newtons.

Force is defined as the product of the mass of the body and its aaceleration,⇒F=ma

Substituting the above given values we get,F=(1500kg) (2.0m /s^2 squared)=3000 N=3×10^3 squared N.

N=newtons

Sandra takes a class field trip to a geology museum. She sees an interesting sample of igneous rock. She wonders if the material

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

It is possible for sedimentary rocks to be converted to igneous rocks. Under conditions of high temperature and pressure, sedimentary rocks can be broken down into igneous rock by melting this rock type.

When the rock is broken down, it forms melt which when cooled and solidifies will form igneous rocks.

Sedimentary rocks are formed from the breaking down of pre-existing rocks through the action of weathering, erosion and sediment transportation. Within a basin, the sediments are compacted and lithified.

When this is subjected to intense pressure and temperature, the rock hardens and might further break down to melt.

Allisa [31]

We are given:

Mass of the rocket = 10 kg

Weight of the Rocket = 100 N

Upward thrust applied by the rocket = 400 N

Net upward force on the rocket:

We are given that gravity pulls the rocket with a force of 100 N

Also, the rocket applied a force of 400N against gravity

Net upward force = Upward thrust - Force applied by gravity

Net upward force = 400 - 100

Net upward force = 300 N

Upward Acceleration of the Rocket:

From newton's second law:

F = ma

replacing the variables

300 = 10 * a

a = 30 m/s²
