What is the difference between a good conductor and a good insulator?

Physics
1 answer:
brilliants [131]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

In a conductor, electric current can flow freely, in an insulator it cannot.

Metals such as copper typify conductors, while most non-metallic solids are said to be good insulators, having extremely high resistance to the flow of charge through them.

Most atoms hold on to their electrons tightly and are insulators.

This is possible due to self-discharge. Very small internal currents inevitably occur in these cells over time and they will eventually exhaust the chemistry.

A redecor travelling of 94 m/s s lows at a anstant
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

638 m.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 94 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 22 m/s

Time (t) = 11 s

Distance (s) =?

We can obtain the distance travelled by using the following formula:

s = (u + v) t /2

s = (94 + 22) × 11 /2

s = 116 × 11 /2

s = 1276 /2

s = 638 m

Thus, the distance travelled is 638 m.
