Answer:

Explanation:

a ) A good conducting material conducts heat easily from one point to another . So the metal spoon which is good conductor will become hot easily by conducting heat from hot water to tip of the spoon . So even after touching the far end of spoon , we can feel the heat of the hot water in the cup . For other material like wood or plastic we have to hold the part which is  very close to water to feel heat of water .

b ) The best conductor will be that which touches hot even when we touch its farthest  end . Hence metal spoon will be best conductor . Plastic pen will be worst conductor because even touching its part close to hot water , we do not feel much heat .

c ) metal spoon > glass rod  > wooden pencil > plastic pen .

PLEASE HELPPPP ❗️❗️❗️
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are 3 main forces at work here, gravity, normal and friction. The gravity pulls the car straight down and is what keeps the car on the ground. Normal force is straight up from the points where the car is touching, so since the wheels are the only parts of the car touching the street, this is where all the normal force is. Friction force opposes any and all motion, the car wants to slide down the hill and would slide down the hill if there was no friction, so the friction force is in the opposite direction of the cars intended motion.
