Describe the difference between a conductor and an insulator in terms of thermal energy transfer and provide an example of each.

Physics

Nikitich [7]3 years ago

The difference between conductors and insulators is because of electronic structure of atoms and molecules.

 

Anywhere we have free electrons, we have a hard conductor where free electrons help in conduction.

 

In electrolytes, charged Ions do conduction.

 

Dielectrics (or insulators) don't have free electrons current.

 

Free electrons mean, the electrons that are not related with a specific atom, they are allowed to move nearby the crystal lattice.

A spring gun is made by compressing a spring in a tube and then latching the spring at
inn [45]

Answer:

a)v=13.2171\,m.s^{-1}

b)H=8.9605\,m

Explanation:

Given:

mass of bullet, m=4.97\times 10^{-3}\,kg

compression of the spring, \Delta x=0.0476\,m

force required for the given compression, F=9.12 \,N

(a)

We know

F=m.a

where:

a= acceleration

9.12=4.97\times 10^{-3}\times a

a\approx 1835\,m.s^{-2}\\

we have:

initial velocity,u=0\,m.s^{-1}

Using the eq. of motion:

v^2=u^2+2a.\Delta x

where:

v= final velocity after the separation of spring with the bullet.

v^2= 0^2+2\times 1835\times 0.0476

v=13.2171\,m.s^{-1}

(b)

Now, in vertical direction we take the above velocity as the initial velocity "u"

so,

u=13.2171\,m.s^{-1}

∵At maximum height the final velocity will be zero

v=0\,m.s^{-1}

Using the equation of motion:

v^2=u^2-2g.h

where:

h= height

g= acceleration due to gravity

0^2=13.2171^2-2\times 9.8\times h

h=8.9129\,m

is the height from the release position of the spring.

So, the height from the latched position be:

H=h+\Delta x

H=8.9129+0.0476

H=8.9605\,m
