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.

Now suppose that the Earth had the same mass and radius as it currently does, but all of the mass was concentrated into a thin (

KiRa [710]

Answer:

The force of gravity at the shell will be extremely great on me due to the huge mass collapsed into the small radius.

<em>At the center of the shell, the gravitational forces all around should cancel out, giving me a feeling of weightlessness; which will be a lesser force compared to that felt while standing on the shell.</em>

Explanation:

For the collapsed earth:

mass = 5.972 × 10^24 kg

radius = 1 ft

according to Newton's gravitation law, the force of gravity due to two body with mass is given as

Fg = GMm/ $R^{2}$

Where Fg is the gravitational force between the two bodies.

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the earth

m is my own mass

R is the distance between me and the center of the earths in each case

For the case where I stand on the shell:

radius R will be 1 ft

Fg = GMm/ $1^{2}$

Fg = GMm

For the case where I stand stand inside the shell, lets say I'm positioned at the center of the shell. The force of gravity due to my mass will be balanced out by all other masses around due to the shell of the hollow earth. This cancelling will produce a weightless feeling on me.

A helium weather balloon is filled to a volume of 219 m3 on the ground, where the pressure is 754 torr and the temperature is 29

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

$V_2 = 606.9 m^3$

Explanation:

By ideal gas equation law we know that

PV = nRT

now we know that when balloon rises to certain level then the number of moles will remains same

so we can say

$n_1 = n_2$

$\frac{P_1V_1}{RT_1} = \frac{P_2V_2}{RT_2}$

now plug in all data to find the final volume of the balloon

$\frac{754\times 219}{R(298)} = \frac{210 \times V_2}{R(230)}$

$V_2 = \frac{230\times 754 \times 219}{210 \times 298}$

$V_2 = 606.9 m^3$
