Answer:

a.Insulators can be used to increase the amount of current that can flow through a resistor without increasing its temperature.

Explanation:

A conductor has low resistance, while an insulator has much higher resistance. Devices called resistors control amounts of resistance into an electrical circuits. Electric charges inside an insulator are bound to the individual atoms or molecules, not being able to move inside the material.

When you turn up the resistance, the electric current flowing through the circuit is reduced

Ohm's law:

V = I * R

R = V/I

An Ohmic conductor would have a linear relationship between the current and the voltage. With non-Ohmic conductors, the relationship is not linear. Most metals are good conductors example silver, copper etc.

Sidana [21]

Answer:

a=8.1832m/s^2

Explanation:

Vo=initial speed=0m/s

Vf=final speed=26.8m/s

t=time=3.275s

the vehicle moves with a constant acceleration therefore we can use the following equation

A=aceleration=(Vf-Vi)/t

A=(26.8m/s-0m/s)/3.275s=8.1832m/s^2

the magnitude of the car´s aceleration is 8.1832m/s^2

The electric field strength E₀ is measured at a perpendicular distance R from an infinitely large, thin sheet that contains a un
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

E=(σ/ε0)

As noted by Dirac the field is the same no matter how far you are from the sheet. When your charge covers a conducting plane, as in your case, the field is, D/eo ,(D is charge density). Because the field inside the conductor (no matter how thin) is zero. The only time the field is, D/2eo, is when you have just a sheet of charge, by itself, not on a conducting plane."

What distance will an object cover in 20 seconds if it is moving at 8 m/s
Nitella [24]

Answer:

160 m

Explanation:

distance covered in 1 s  = 8 m

therefore, distance covered in 20 s = 8 * 20 m = 160 m
