Why are ionic solids poor conductors of electricity? The lattice is brittle. The ions are neutral. The ions are of equal but opp

osite charge. The ions are in fixed positions.

The ions are in fixed positions.

Explanation:

Ionic solids are poor conductors of electricity because their ions are fixed in position. Their ions are not free to move about. They are fixed in crystal lattices.

  • For the conduction of electricity, compounds must possess free mobile electrons and moving ions in solution.
  • Ionic compounds are formed by the electrostatic attraction between a metallic and non-metallic ion.
  • They actually contain ions but their ions are locked up.
  • They are not free to move about.
  • Electrical conduction involves ion mobility.
  • In molten and aqueous forms, they are able to conduct electricity because their ions are then mobile.

What would the velocity of an object be if it was on a 1.75m
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

T = 4 sec / 2 = 2 sec      period of revolution

S = 2 pi R = 2 * pi * 1.75 m = 11 m

V = S / T = 11 m / 2 sec = 5.5 m/s       speed of object

While on vacation, Carine rides in a hot-air balloon. To make the balloon rise, the pilot turns on a flame to warm the air insid
andre [41]

The air inside becomes warmer, and that makes it LESS DENSE.

Less-dense air FLOATS in denser air. Since it's inside the balloon, it picks the balloon up when it floats.

A policeman in a stationary car measures the speed of approaching cars by means of an ultrasonic device that emits a sound with
beks73 [17]

Answer:

4.6 kHz

Explanation:

The formula for the Doppler effect allows us to find the frequency of the reflected wave:

f'=(\frac{v}{v-v_s})f

where

f is the original frequency of the sound

v is the speed of sound

vs is the speed of the wave source

In this problem, we have

f = 41.2 kHz

v = 330 m/s

vs = 33.0 m/s

Therefore, if we substitute in the equation we find the frequency of the reflected wave:

f'=(\frac{330 m/s}{330 m/s-33.0 m/s})(41.2 kHz)=45.8 kHz

And the frequency of the beats is equal to the difference between the frequency of the reflected wave and the original frequency:

f_B = |f'-f|=|45.8 kHz-41.2 kHz|=4.6 kHz
