Answer: The correct answer is "metalloid".

Explanation:

Metal is the material which can conduct electricity as it contains free electrons. It is good conductor of electricity. For example, copper, silver.

Metal can be drawn into wires. This property of material is called ductile.

Metal can be beaten into sheets. This property of material is called malleable.

Non metal is the material which cannot conduct electricity as it does not contain free electrons. They are poor conductor of electricity. For example, oxygen.

Metalloid: It has properties of both metals and non metal. It is electrical conductor. For example, semiconductor- silicon and germanium. But they cannot be pulled into wires.

Therefore, a material you are testing conducts electricity but cannot be pulled into wires. It is most likely a metalloid.

Two particles, each of charge Q, are fixed at opposite corners of a square that lies in the plane of the page. A positive test c
amid [387]

Answer:

The magnitude of the net force is √2F.

Explanation:

Since the two particles have the same charge Q, they exert the same force on the test charge; both attractive or repulsive. So, the angle between the two forces is 90° in any case. Now, as we know the magnitude of these forces and that they form a 90° angle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the magnitude of the resultant net force:

F_N=\sqrt{F^{2}+F^{2}}\\\\F_N=\sqrt{2F^{2}}\\\\F_N=\sqrt{2}F

Then, it means that the net force acting on the test charge has a magnitude of √2F.

A very long straight current-carrying wire produces a magnetic field of 25 µT at a distance d from the wire. How far will the ma
daser333 [38]

The magnetic field strength of a very long current-carrying wire is proportional to the inverse of the distance from the wire. The farther you go from the wire, the weaker the magnetic field becomes.

B ∝ 1/d

B = magnetic field strength, d = distance from wire

Calculate the scaling factor for d required to change B from 25μT to 2.8μT:

2.8μT/25μT = 1/k

k = 8.9

You must go to a distance of 8.9d to observe a magnetic field strength of 2.8μT

When nuclear fission occurs some mass is lost where does that mass go
horrorfan [7]
The loss of matter is called the mass defect. The missing matter is converted into energy. You can actually calculate the amount of energy produced during a nuclear reaction with  fairly simple equation developed by Albert Einstein; E = mc^2. In this equation, E is the amount of energy produced, m is the missing mass, or the mass defect, and c is the speed of light, which is a rather large number. The speed of light is squared, making that part of the equation a very large number that, even when multiplied by a small amount of mass, yields a large amount of energy.
