A conducting material conducts or allows electricity to flow, while an insulator does not allow electricity to flow. For example think of a water pipe, if the pipe has a hole water can flow, on the other hand if it is just a solid rod, no water can flow through. I hope this helps.

In an experiment, an object is released from rest from the top of a building. Its speed is measured as it reaches a point that i

NikAS [45]

Answer:

so the speed will increase by 1.44 times then the initial speed if the distance is increased to double

Explanation:

As we know that the air friction or resistance due to air is neglected then we can use the equation of kinematics here

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

since we released it from rest so we have

$v_i = 0$

so here we have

$v_f = \sqrt{2gd}$

now if the distance is double then we have

$v_f' = \sqrt{2g(2d)}$

now from above two equations we can say that

$v_f' = \sqrt2 v_f$

so the speed will increase by 1.44 times then the initial speed if the distance is increased to double

A student is told to use 20.0 g of sodium chloride to make an aqueous solution that has a concentration of 10.0 g/L (grams of so

Stells [14]

Answer:

she should add solute to the solvent

Explanation:

Given data :

Mass of the sodium chloride, = 20.0 g

Concentration of the solution = 10 g/L

Volume of 20.0 g of sodium chloride = 7.50 mL

Now, from the concentration, we can conclude that for 10 g of sodium chloride volume of the solution is 1 L

thus, for 20 g of sodium chloride volume of the solution is 2 L or 2000 mL

also,

Volume of solution = Volume of solute(sodium chloride) + volume of solvent (water)

thus,

2000 mL = 7.5 mL + volume of solvent (water)

or

volume of water = (2000 - 7.5) mL

or

volume of water = 1992.5 mL

or

volume of water = 199.25 L ≈ 199 L

An orange light (f = 5.2 * 10'4Hz) is

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

2.145×10^-10 V or 0.2145nV

Explanation:

From hf=eV

h= Plank's constant = 6.6×10^-34JS

f= frequency of the electromagnetic wave = 5.2×10^4 Hz

e= electronic charge= 1.6×10^-19 C

V= voltage

V= hf/e

V= 6.6×10^-34JS × 5.2×10^4 Hz/ 1.6×10^-19 C

V= 2.145×10^-10 V or 0.2145nV

Therefore the voltage created is 2.145×10^-10 V or 0.2145nV
