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.

A force of 100 newtons is used to move an object a distance of 15 meters with a power of 25 watts. Find the

valentina_108 [34]

work is distance * force so 15*100=1500

and to find time you know power = diastance * force / time

so 25=15*100/t

25=1500/t

25/1500=t

.016=time

What two factors affect the strength of a magnetic field

Stels [109]

Answer:

Factors Affecting the Strength of the Magnetic Field of an Electromagnet: Factors that affect the strength of electromagnets are the nature of the core material, strength of the current passing through the core, the number of turns of wire on the core and the shape and size of the core.

An ambulance emits a frequency of 450 Hz from its siren. What frequency is heard by a man as the ambulance moves toward him? les

Zepler [3.9K]

Frequency is defined as the number of repetitions of waves occurring in 1 second. The frequency heard by the man as the ambulance move toward him will be greater than 450 Hz.

<h3>What is the frequency ?</h3>

Frequency is defined as the number of cycles completed in 1 second. Frequency is given by the formula as,

$\rm{Frequency =\frac{1}{time } }$

As the formula shows frequency is inversely proportional to the time that shows if the time is decreasing frequency will increase and vice versa.

In the above case, the ambulance is moving toward the men. So that the time to meet up is decreased that's why the frequency will be greater than the initial frequency from the siren.

Hence the frequency heard by the man as the ambulance move toward him will be greater than 450 Hz.
