Conductors are substances that pass an electrical charge.

Semiconductors are substances whose electrical conductivity is lower than that of metals and greater than that of dielectrics.

Electricity nonconductors or insulators - in the terminology of Faraday - dielectrics (see). N. perfect does not exist; they represent only a large resistance to galvanic current and then different bodies in varying degrees (see Galvanic current), so that between poor and good conductors there are many bodies of average conductivity. N. The galvanic current is also the best insulators of static electricity. N. Heat or its bad conductors are at the same time electrical insulators (see Thermal Conductivity).

A dielectric (insulator) is a substance that is poorly conducting or not conducting at all. The concentration of free charge carriers in a dielectric does not exceed 108 cm-3. The main property of the dielectric is the ability to polarize in an external electric field. From the point of view of the band theory of a solid body, a dielectric is a substance with a band gap greater than 3 eV.

Answer:

The top of the mountian is colder

Explanation:

As air rises, the pressure decreases. It is this lower pressure at higher altitudes that causes the temperature to be colder on top of a mountain than at sea level.

What is an analogy of two different roads or rivers to compare a series and parallel circuit?
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

In a series circuit, the same amount of current flows through all the components placed in it. On the other hand, in parallel circuits, the components are placed in parallel with each other due to which the circuit splits the current flow.

Three forces act on a box on an inclined plane as shown in the diagram below. [Vectors
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

zero

Explanation:

For the box remaining at rest, the total acceleration on the box must be zero. Since force F = m*a, the force F must also be zero.
