Wood is typically an insulator(resists flow of electricity though it)
However, wet wood can be a conductor so really it depends

Two locomotives approach each other on parallel track. Each has speed of 95 km/h with respect to the ground.If they are initiall
irinina [24]

Answer:

It will take 2.68 minutes for them to reach each other.

Explanation:

We use the two following kinematic equations, making the final position the same (for the moment they meet each other):

locomotive 1 -->  x_f=v*t

locomotive 2 -->  x_f=8.5\,-\,v*t

we make the two xf equal, and solve for the time (t) using v = 95 km/h:

95*t=8.5-95*t\\2*95*t=8.5\\t=8.5/(190)\\t = 0.0447\,\,hours

converting the hours into minutes by multiplying this value times 60;

t = 2.68 minutes

There is a basketball with a diameter of 9in. and a softball with a diameter of 4in. Find how many times greater the volume of t
erica [24]

Answer: #.37 times greater

Explanation: Volume of a sphere is: V = \frac{4}{3}·π·r³

Since it is given the diameter of the basketball and the softball, their ratios are r₁ = 3in and r₂ = 2in, in which index 1 represents the basketball and index 2, the softball.

Calculating the volume of basketball:

V₁ = \frac{4}{3} . 3.14 . 3³

V₁ = 113.04 in³

Calculating the volume of softball:

V₂ = \frac{4}{3} . 3.14 . 2³

V₂ = 33.5 in³

Comparing one volume with the other:

\frac{V1}{V2} = \frac{113.04}{33.5} = 3.37

We have that V₁ = 3.37V₂

This means the volume of a basketball is 3.37 times greater than the volume of a softball.

An object whose mass is 100 lb falls freely under the influence of gravity from an initial elevation of 600 ft above the surface
monitta

Answer with Explanations:

Given:

Mass of object, m = 100 lb

height fallen, h = 600 ft

initial velocity, u = 50 ft/s

acceleration due to gravity, g = 31.5 ft/s^2

Find final velocity when it touches ground.

Solution:

Use standard kinematics equation, in the absence of air resistance and variation of g with height,

v^2 - u^2 = 2aS

where

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = acceleration due to gravity

S = distance travelled

Substitute values

v^2 = u^2 + 2aS

= 50^2 + 2*31.5*600

= 40300 ft^2/s^2

Final velocity,

v = sqrt(40300) ft/s

= 200.75 ft/s

= 201 ft/s  to the nearest foot.

Explain each <br> Mechanical weathering:<br> Chemical weathering:
marissa [1.9K]
Mechanical weathering is the process of breaking big rocks into little ones. This process usually happens near the surface of the planet. Temperature also affects the land. The cool nights and hot days always cause things to expand and contract. That movement can cause rocks to crack and break apart.


Chemical weathering occurs when chemical reactions weaken and decompose rocks, often acting alongside the physical breakdown of rock, aka mechanical weathering. This process involves a chemical change, which actually alters the rock's or mineral's chemical composition.
