Why generally metals are good conductor and non metals are bad conductor of electricity ​

Physics
1 answer:
Hoochie [10]3 years ago
3 0

Metals - The close packing of the metal ions in the lattice and the delocalised electrons ensure it can carry kinetic energy through the lattice.

Non - metals have fewer free electrons and electrons are held tightly, meaning they're not allowed to move freely.

An echo is heard from a cliff 3.71 s after a rifle is fired. How many feet away is the cliff
LenKa [72]

The cliff is 2042 ft away.

We know that the speed of sound in air is directly proportional to the absolute temperature.

First convert the Fahrenheit temperature to Celsius;

 °C = 5/9(44.5 - 32)

°C = 6.9 °C

Applying the formula;

V1/V2 = √T1/T2

Where; V1 = velocity of sound in air at  0°C

V2 = Velocity of sound in air at 6.9 °C

1087/V2 = √273/279.9

V2= 1101 ft/s

Given that; V = 2s/t

Where s is the distance of the cliff

t is the time taken

1101 ft/s = 2s/3.71 s

s = 1101 ft/s × 3.71 s/2

s = 2042 ft

A hockey puck is at rest on a flat surface. Then one end of the surface is lifted gradually, forming an inclined plane of increa
Jlenok [28]

The coefficient of static friction between the puck and the surface.

In fact, that coefficient describes exactly how "hard" it is to cause the puck to start moving, if it starts from an idle condition.

A clock has radius of 0.5m. The outermost point on its minute hand travels along the edge. What is its tangential speed?
Andreas93 [3]
The angular speed of the minute hand is the ratio between the angle covered and the time taken. The angle covered by the minute hand is 2 \pi, while the time needed is t=60 min= 3600 s, so the angular speed is
\omega =  \frac{2 \pi}{3600 s}=0.0017 rad/s

And the tangential speed is given by
v=\omega r=(0.0017 rad/s)(0.5 m)=8.72 \cdot 10^{-4} m/s
