When Sam presses the brake lever, a pair of rubber shoes  clamps onto the metal inner rim of the front and back wheels. As the brake shoes rub  against the wheels, friction is caused and  the kinetic energy possessed by the vehicle is converted into heat which slows down the vehicle.

A point P1 is located by the vector A = (3.74)î + (1.64)ĵ and a point P2 is located by the vector B = (1.60)î + (3.66)ĵ. The vec

Answer:

\vec{C} = ( \ - 2.14 \ , \ 2.02 \ )

Explanation:

The vector that point from point P1 to point P2 its found simply by taking the vector at which point P2 its located and subtracting the vector at which point P1 its located:

\vec{C} = \vec{B} - \vec{A}

So:

\vec{C} = ( \ 1.60 \ , \ 3.66 \ ) - ( \ 3.74 \ , \ 1.64 \ )

\vec{C} = ( \ 1.60 \ - \ 3.74 \ , \ 3.66 \ - \ 1.64 \ )

\vec{C} = ( \ - 2.14 \ , \ 2.02 \ )

A. Write two or three sentences to describe the conductivity of an insulator. Explain its conductivity in terms of the electrons
aliya0001 [1]

PART A)

Conductivity of insulator is very small as there is no free electrons to conduct the current trough that medium

So here number of conduction electrons are very less in insulators

PART B)

Resistance is the property of a conducting medium which will oppose the flow of current trough it

Resistance of wire directly depends on its length so resistance of long wire will be more than the resistance of short wire

Resistance inversely depends on the area so if a wire has more crossectional area then its resistance must be small

PART C)

power of light bulb is defined as rate of electrical energy

it is given by formula

P = i V

here we know that

i = 1.46 A

V = 120 volts

so power is given as

P = 1.46 \times 120

P = 175.2 Watt
