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.

Which best describes a characteristic of an adiabatic process?
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

<h3>Can you please provide the choices? For now this is all I can give you.</h3>

Explanation:

In thermodynamics, an adiabatic process is a type of thermodynamic process which occurs without transferring heat or mass between the system and its surroundings.Unlike an isothermal process, an adiabatic process transfers energy to the surroundings only as work. It also conceptually supports the theory used to explain the first law of thermodynamics and is therefore a key thermodynamic concept.

While riding in a moving car, you toss an egg directly upward. Does the egg tend to land behind you, in front of you, or back in
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

The movement of a body can be analyzed using New's first law. In an inertial frame (without acceleration) every body is kept at rest or moving at constant speed until there is an external force that changes this state

Let's analyze these cases in the framework of this first law

a) If the vehicle is going at constant speed the two bodies (the egg and the hands) do not change movement so he had returned to the hands

b) If the vehicle accelerates the passenger goes faster, but the egg that is not subject to anything does not change the movement, so it falls behind the passenger

c) If the vehicle slows down, the passenger reduces its speed and the distance traveled in time, but the egg that is not attached follows its movement and falls in front of the passenger.

A 100g block is initially compressing a spring 5.0 cm. The spring launches the block 50cm horizontally along the ground with a f
Setler [38]

Answer:

7200 N/m

Explanation:

Metric unit conversion

100g = 0.1 kg

5 cm = 0.05 m

50 cm = 0.5 m

As the block is released from the spring and travelling to height h = 1.5m off the ground, the elastics energy is converted to work of friction force and the potential energy at 1.5 m off the ground

The work by friction force is the product of the force F = 15N itself and the distance s = 0.5 m

W_f = F_fs = 15*0.5 = 7.5 J

Let g = 10 m/s2. The change in potential energy can be calculated as the following:

E_p = mgh = 0.1*10*1.5 = 1.5 J

Therefore, as elastic energy is converted to potential energy and work of friction:

E_e = W_f + E_p

kx^2/2 = 7.5 + 1.5 = 9 J

k = 9*2/x^2 = 18/0.05^2 = 7200 N/m
