How does electrical conduction compare between metals, nonmetals, and metalloids

Physics
1 answer:
zhuklara [117]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

metal> metalloids >nonmetals    (Electrical conductivity)

Explanation:

Electrical conductivity of objects can be compared by the bonding energy of electrons in them.

Metals have less bonding energy of electrons, so even at room temperature their are significant number of free electrons to carry electrical current.

Nonmetals have a very high bonding energy of electrons, so  at room temperature negligible number of free electrons are present so electrical conductivity is very low.

Metalloids have both metallic and non metallic features. The electron bonding energy falls in between that of metals and nonmetals. So electrical conductivity also lies in between metals and nonmetals.

Answer:

D

Explanation:

calculate effective resistance of the resistors

= 80 + 120

= 200

overall resistance = 48 ohms

so overall current flowing through circuit

I = V / R

I = 12 / 200

I = 0.06 A

since circuit is in series, current is same at every point so...

potential difference across 80 = R x I

= 80 x 0.06

answer is potential difference = 4.8 V

hope this helps

What is simple harmonic oscillation? express your answer verbally, mathematically, and visually.
Morgarella [4.7K]

Simple harmonic motion is the motion in objects where the restoring for d is directly proportional to the body displacement.

<h3>What is simple harmonic motion?</h3>

Simple harmonic motion a type of periodic motion where the force that restores moving object to it's right position is directly proportional to the magnitude of body's displacement and this normally acts towards the object's equilibrium position.

The formulate for simple harmonic motion are

,F = −kx, where F is the force, x is the displacement, and k is a constanst. An example of a simple harmonic oscillator is the vibration of a mass attached to a vertical spring.

Simple harmonic oscillator can be represented by the equation x ( t ) = A cos ⁡ ( 2 π f t ) x(t) = A\cos(2\pi f t) x(t)=Acos(2πft)x,

where t is period.

x is displacement

A is amplitude.

8. The force constant of a spring is 150. N/m. (a) How much force is required to stretch the spring 0.25 m? (b) How much work is
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

<em>a) 37.5N</em>

<em>b) 9.375Joules</em>

Explanation:

a) According to Hooke's law

F = ke

k is the spring constant

e is the extension;

F = 150 * 0.25

F = 37.5N

b) Work done on the spring = 1/2ke^2

Work done on the spring = 1/2 * 150 * 0.25^2

Work done on the spring  = 75 * 0.0625

Work done on the spring  = 9.375Joules

What will happen to mass and weight when you go to the moon
Art [367]
<h2>Answer: The mass will remain the same, but the weight will change </h2>

Let's start by explaining that mass and weight are very different concepts.

Mass m is the amount of matter that exists in a body, which only depends on the quantity and type of particles within it. This means mass is an intrinsic property of each body and <u>remains the same regardless of where the body is located.  </u>

On the other hand, weight W is a measure of the gravitational force acting on an object and is directly proportional to the product of the mass m of the body by the acceleration of gravity g:

W=m.g

Then, since the Earth and the Moon have different values ​​of gravity, the weight of an object in each place will vary, but its mass will not.
