Answer:

D. It has a low resistance and allows charges to move freely.

Explanation:

The high conductivity of copper allow charges to move freely without the need of too much force. The conductivity decreases with increase in resistance. Low resistance also means less heating of the conductors. This property of copper makes it ideal for use in the manufacture of electric cables and conductors for various gadgets.

How much equal charge should be placed on the earth and the moon so that the electrical repulsion balances the gravitational for

kumpel [21]

As we know that electrostatic force between two charges is given as

$F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

here we know that electrostatic repulsion force is balanced by the gravitational force between them

so here force of attraction due to gravitation is given as

$F_g = 1.98 \times 10^{20} N$

here we can assume that both will have equal charge of magnitude "q"

now we have

$1.98 \times 10^{20} = \frac{kq^2}{r^2}$

$1.98 \times 10^{20} = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(q^2)}{(3.84 \times 10^8)^2}$

$1.98 \times 10^{20} = (6.10 \times 10^{-8}) q^2$

now we have

$q = 5.7 \times 10^{13} C$

A chair of weight 70.0 N lies atop a horizontal floor; the floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of F =

Annette [7]

Answer:

94.67 N

Explanation:

Consider a free body diagram with force, F of 41 N applied at an angle of 37 degrees while the weight acts downwards. Resolving the force into vertical and horizontal components, we obtain a free body diagram attached.

At equilibrium, normal reaction is equal to the sum of the weight and the vertical component of the force applied. Applying the condition of equilibrium along the vertical direction.

$\begin{array}{l}\\\Sigma {F_y} = 0\\\\N - W - F\sin \theta = 0\\\\N = W + F\sin \theta \\\end{array}$

Substituting 70 N for W, 41 N for F and $\theta$ for 37 degrees

N=70+41sin37=94.67441595 N and rounding off to 2 decimal places

N=94.67 N

Anika asks Eva to roll a basketball and then a bowling

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

the bowling ball, because it has more mass and therefore more inertia

Explanation:

As per law of inertia we know that if an object is having more inertia then it is difficult to change state of motion.

Inertia is the property of mass of an object which always resist to change the state of motion of the object.

If an object has more inertia then it is more difficult to change the state of motion.

Now we know that we have one bowling ball and one basket ball, since bowling ball is having more mass then it must have more inertia so it is difficult to start the motion in bowling ball.

So correct answer will be

the bowling ball, because it has more mass and therefore more inertia
