1)why do we get electric shock while holding a live wire barefooted and not when wearing rubber shoes?

Physics

Electricity is always going to take the path of least resistance to ground. The rubber in your shoes is not a conductor of electricity, therefore you are not completing the circuit and you don't get shocked. Your bare feet, on the other hand ARE conductors of electricity, so when you hold the wire, you complete the circuit and become the path of least resistance to ground... ZAP!

You need to make a very dilute solution of sodium phosphate dihydrate (MW 142 g/mol, FW 178 g/mol). How many grams of sodium pho
dlinn [17]

Answer:

first question is 178 g of sodium phosphate dihydrate. second question is 0.25 mL

Explanation:

To know the number of grams from the number of moles (0.5L*2mol/L)= 1mol. 1 mol is equal to 178 g. Second question mL of the stock is obtained from (0.1L*5.0^-3mol/L)/2mol/L.

Jack has two boxes. One is 148g and one is 78g. If jack pushes both boxes with the same amount of force, which will accelerate f
Step2247 [10]
The 78g box, since it has less weight, would accelerate faster. If you had a frictionless surface, and you conducted this experiment, both boxes, without any outside forces, would accelerate at the same rate forever. However, in this problem we must assume the surface is not frictionless. Friction is determined by weight; the more weight, the more friction. Since the 78g box has less weight, it has less friction, making it easier to push with less force.
