the correct answer would be 4.28

8ll8ll8 =1/ 1/8 /1/8 /1/8 = 2.67

2+2.67=4.67

20v/4.67=4.28A

What are the difference between conductor and insulator? ​
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

  • A conductor allows energy e.g. electric charge or heat to pass through it easily. While an insulator does not let electric current or heat to travel through it.
  • Insulators have strong molecular bonds. While molecular bonds are very weak in conductors.
  • Insulators have very low conductivity. While in conductors, it is very high.
  • Insulators have a very high resistance and therefore the electrons are held together very firmly. The conductors, on the other hand, have a very low resistance.
  • Insulators do not have any electric field, neither inside nor on the surface. While in conductors, it is found on the surface and continues to be zero in the inner part of the conductor.

A car of mass m, traveling at constant speed, rides over the top of a round hill. How do the normal force of the road on the car
dybincka [34]

Answer:

The normal force will be lower than the gravitational force acting on the car. Therefore the answer is N < mg, which is <em>option B</em>.

Explanation:

Over a round hill, the centripetal force acting toward the the radius of the hill supports the gravitational force (mg) of the car. This notion can be expressed mathematically as follows:

At the top of a round hill

Normal force = Gravitational force - centripetal force

At the foot of a round hill

Normal Force = centripetal force + Gravitational force

In one cycle a heat engine absorbs 450 J from a high-temperature reservoir and expels 290 J to a low-temperature reservoir. If t
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

So the ratio will be \frac{T_L}{T_H}=-0.171

Explanation:

We have given heat engine absorbs 450 joule from high temperature reservoir

So Q=450j

As the heat engine expels 290 j

So work done W = 290 J

We know that efficiency \eta =\frac{W}{Q}=\frac{290}{450}=0.6444

It is given that efficiency of the engine only 55 % of Carnot engine

So efficiency of Carnot engine =\frac{0.6444}{0.55}=1.171

Efficiency of Carnot engine is \eta =1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}

1.171 =1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}

\frac{T_L}{T_H}=-0.171

Snail 3, trying to keep up with Snail 2, managed to get to
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Acceleration is the change in velocity over the change in time = Δv/Δt.  To do these problems, you need to find out how much the speed changed and over what period of time it changed.

Snail 1 changes from 4 cm/min to 7 cm/min in 3 minutes.  Subtract the starting velocity (4 cm/min) from the ending velocity (7 cm/min) then divide by the time (3 min):

Snail 1 = (7 cm/min. - 4 cm/min)/(3 minutes) = ?    (remember to put down the units)

Snail 2 changed from 7 cm/min. down to 1 cm/min. in 3 minutes

Snail 2 = (1 cm/min. - 7 cm/min.)/(3 min.) = ?        (note that the acceleration is negative when you slow down)

I hope this helps you
