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.

What is the maximum speed when the conditions are mass =450 kg, initial height= 30 m, and the roller coaster is initially at res
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

B. 24.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the roller coaster, m = 450 kg

height of the roller coaster, h = 30 m

The maximum potential energy of the roller coaster  due to its height is given by;

P.E_{max} = mgh\\\\PE_{max} = 450 *9.8*30\\\\PE_{max} = 132,300 \ J

P.E_{max} = K.E_{max} \ (law \ of \ conservation\ of \ energy)

K.E_{max} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2\\\\ v_{max}^2 = \frac{2K.E_{max}}{m}\\\\ v_{max}^2 = \frac{2*132300}{450}\\\\ v_{max}^2 =588\\\\v_{max} = \sqrt{588}\\\\  v_{max} = 24.2 \ m/s

Therefore, the maximum speed of the roller coaster is 24.2 m/s.

How much money would be saved by turning off one 100.0-W lightbulb 3.0 h/day for 365 days if the
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

the money that would be saved is $13.14.

Explanation:

Given;

power consumed by the light bulb, P = 100 W = 0.1 kW

time of running the bulb, t = 3 hours for 365 days = 1,095 hours

cost rate of power consumption, C = $0.12 per kWh

Energy consumed by the light bulb for the given days;

E = Pt

E = 0.1 kW  x 1,095 hr

E = 109.5 kWh

Cost of energy consumed = 109.5 kWh   x   $0.12 / kWh

                                            = $13.14

Therefore, the money that would be saved is $13.14.
