Answer:

Aluminium

Explanation:

Aluminium has the least resistance since It has 3 free electrons per atom. Its resistivity is low compared to other metals provided in the choices (gold, nichrome, tungsten). Low resistivity of metals means a high conductance of the metal referred to.

Hey JayDilla, I get 1/3.  Here's how:
Kinetic energy due to linear motion is:
E_{linear}= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where
v=r \omega
giving
E_{linear}= \frac{1}{2}mr^2 \omega ^2

The rotational part requires the moment of inertia of a solid cylinder
I_{cyl} =  \frac{1}{2}mr^2
Then the rotational kinetic energy is
E_{rot}= \frac{1}{2}I \omega ^2= \frac{1}{4}mr^2 \omega ^2
Adding the two types of energy and factoring out common terms gives
\frac{1}{2}mr^2 \omega ^2(1+ \frac{1}{2})
Here the "1" in the parenthesis is due to linear motion and the "1/2" is due to the rotational part.  Since this gives a total of 3/2 altogether, and the rotational part is due to a third of this (1/2), I say it's 1/3.

A typical oil control ring consists of _______ separate part(s).
azamat
<span>A. three</span><span>

Oil spill can be very harmful to marine life because  the chemical make up of oils can be poisonous to marine life. The oil can also affect the natural body temperature of marine animals especially to the small fish. Sea otters and sea birds are the most commonly affected by oil spills and those other marine animals that can be found in the shoreline. Heavy oils like the bunker oils used to fuel ships are the most harmful oil because when this oil stick to birds feathers, they may have an inability to warm themselves that could lead them to die.</span>

Westkost [7]

Answer:

-5.8868501529 m/s² or -5.8868501529g

0.118909090909 s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{1.3^2-2^2}{2\times 0.02}\\\Rightarrow a=-5.8868501529\ m/s^2

Dividing by g

\dfrac{a}{g}=\dfrac{-57.75}{9.81}\\\Rightarrow a=-5.8868501529g

The acceleration is -5.8868501529 m/s² or -5.8868501529g

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{1.3-2}{-5.8868501529}\\\Rightarrow t=0.118909090909\ s

The time taken is 0.118909090909 s
