Mathematics

5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The order of the top three are

  • Silver
  • Copper
  • Gold

In that order. Copper is used where there is some tolerance for corrosion for it much cheaper than the other two. Gold is used where corosion is a consideration because Gold does not tarnish. Silver is used when conductivity is the primary concern.

Aluminum was tried in house wiring. It is very brittle. I think it was abandoned.

Answer:

Pure silver is best conductor of electricity.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conductivity is the property of materials to which extent a material allows electric current to flow through it.

Metals is defined as the substance which is good conductor of heat and electricity.

Given are list of highly conductive metals,

Pure silver

Pure copper

Pure gold

Aluminium

The presence of free electrons determines a metal’s conductivity.

Silver and copper are metals with single, free-moving  electrons.

Pure silver is the most conductive metal of all metals

<h3>Answer: E) 1/5</h3>

========================================================

Method 1

Use your calculator to find the decimal version of each fraction

  • 4/10 = 0.40
  • 12/25 = 0.48
  • 14/20 = 0.70
  • 28/50 = 0.56
  • 1/5 = 0.20

We see that 0.20 is the smallest decimal of the list, so 1/5 is the smallest fraction of the list.

----------------------------

Method 2

To compare fractions, we need to get all of the denominators to the same value. A good target is the lowest common denominator (LCD)

In this case, the LCD is 100

  • 4/10 = 40/100 .... multiply top and bottom by 10
  • 12/25 = 48/100 .... multiply top and bottom by 4
  • 14/20 = 70/100 .... multiply top and bottom by 5
  • 28/50 = 56/100  .... multiply top and bottom by 2
  • 1/5 = 20/100  .... multiply top and bottom by 20

The last fraction has the smallest denominator, so 1/5 is the smallest.
