Oliver builds a circuit connecting a light bulb to a battery with wires, leaving a gap in one of the wires. He places several ob

jects across the gap to close the loop. He wants to see which objects allow electricity to flow and turn on the light bulb. Why do some materials allow electricity to flow through while others do not?
A. Electricity will flow if the atoms in the material are bound tightly to each other.

B. Electricity will flow if the atoms in the material are bound loosely to each other.

C. Electricity will flow if the electrons are bound tightly to their atoms in the material.

D. Electricity will flow if the electrons are bound loosely to their atoms in the material.

Answer:

D. Electricity will flow if the electrons are bound loosely to their atoms in the material.

Explanation:

The continuous flow of charges is known as electricity (current). The flow of these charges are due to free or mobile electron within the atoms of the conductors. The materials which will allow current to pass through them, must have free or mobile electrons which are loosely bound to their atoms.

Thus, the correction for this question is "D"

D. Electricity will flow if the electrons are bound loosely to their atoms in the material.

Apply a force of 50 N right to the box. Describe the motion of the box using physics terms (i.E. Velocity, acceleration, displac
Nikitich [7]

When unbalanced force is acting on the system of mass then as per Newton's II law we can say

F_{net} = ma

here we have

a = \frac{F}{m}

now since the force and mass both given to us so we can find acceleration of object from this

now when 50 N force is applied on a box then this 50 N force is unbalanced force on it and it will produce acceleration to the box

So here we can say that box will accelerate with constant acceleration and hence its velocity will linearly increase with time.

Now the displacement of the object will be given as

d = v_i * t + \frac{1}{2} at^2

so here the displacement will be a quadratic function of time and increases with time as well

so here overall the motion will be of constant acceleration, uniformly  increasing velocity and displacement will be a quadratic function of time

a loaded sack of total mass is 1000 gramme falls down from the floor of a lorry 200cm high, calculate the workdone by the gravit
Helen [10]

Answer:

W = 20 J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a loaded sack, m = 1000 g = 1 kg

It falls down from the floor of a lorry 200 cm high, h = 2 m

We need to find the work done by the gravity. The work done by an object under the action of gravity is given by :

W = mgh

Substitute all the values,

W = 1 × 10 × 2

= 20 J

Hence, the required work done by gravity is equal to 20 J.

(a) 25lx

(b) 11.11lx

<u>Explanation:</u>

Illuminance is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.

So,

I = k\frac{1}{r^2}

where, k is a constant

So,

(a)

If I = 100lx and r₂ = 2r Then,

I_2 = k\frac{1}{(2r)^2}

Dividing both the equation we get

\frac{I_1}{I_2} = \frac{k}{r^2} X\frac{(2r)^2}{k} \\\\\frac{I_1}{I_2} = 4\\\\I_2 = \frac{I_1}{4}\\\\I_2 = \frac{100}{4}  = 25lx

When the distance is doubled then the illumination reduces by one- fourth and becomes 25lx

(b)

If I = 100lx and r₂ = 3r Then,

I_2 = k\frac{1}{(3r)^2}

Dividing equation 1 and 3 we get

\frac{I_1}{I_2} = \frac{k}{r^2} X\frac{(3r)^2}{k} \\\\\frac{I_1}{I_2} = 9\\\\I_2 = \frac{I_1}{9}\\\\I_2 = \frac{100}{9}  = 11.11lx

When the distance is tripled then the illumination reduces by one- ninth and becomes 11.11lx

How does water form in the clouds? Explain how
Aloiza [94]

When air rises in the atmosphere it gets cooler and is under less pressure. When air cools, it's not able to hold all of the water vapor it once was. Air also can't hold as much water when air pressure drops. The vapor becomes small water droplets or ice crystals and a cloud is formed.

I hope this helps you..
