Why do metals make good electrical conductors?

Physics
1 answer:
alexdok [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Metals are good conductors of electricity because they contain free electrons in their atoms. The outer shell of atom's of metal have free electrons. These free electrons are responsible of electrical conductivity of metals. These electron are not bounded by the attraction forces of the nucleous. They are free to wonder in lattice of positive ion and thus allow electrical conductivity.

If the absolute pressure of a gas is 550.280 kPa, its gage pressure is A. 101.325 kPa. B. 651.605 kPa. C. 448.955 kPa. D. 277.28
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Option C is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Absolute  pressure is sum of gauge pressure and atmospheric pressure.

That is

               P_{abs}=P_{gauge}+P_{atm}

We have

          P_{abs}=550.280 kPa\\\\P_{atm}=1atm=101325Pa=101.325kPa

Substituting

         P_{abs}=P_{gauge}+P_{atm}\\\\550.280=P_{gauge}+101.325\\\\P_{gauge}=448.955kPa

Option C is the correct answer.

Ocean waves of wavelength 26 m are moving directly toward a concrete barrier wall at 4.0 m/s . The waves reflect from the wall,
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

a) the distance between her and the wall is 13 m

b) the period of her up-and-down motion is 6.5 s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

wavelength λ = 26 m

velocity v = 4.0 m/s

a) How far from the wall is she?

Now, The first antinode is formed at a distance λ/2 from the wall, since the separation distance between the person and wall is;

x = λ/2

we substitute

x = 26 m / 2

x = 13 m

Therefore, the distance between her and the wall is 13 m

b) What is the period of her up-and-down motion?

we know that the relationship between frequency, wavelength and wave speed is;

v = fλ

hence, f = v/λ

we also know that frequency is expressed as the reciprocal of the time period;

f = 1/T

Hence

1/T = v/λ

solve for T

Tv = λ

T = λ/v

we substitute

T = 26 m / 4 m/s

T = 6.5 s

Therefore, the period of her up-and-down motion is 6.5 s
