Name the material used to transfer of charges from one body to other​
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

conductor

Explanation:

A "conductor" is a material that allows the charges to pass freely from one body to the other. This causes a movement among the electrons and this means that<em> the charge will be passed entirely to the object receiving it.</em> This is also called <em>"conductive material."</em>

Examples of conductors are: <em>copper, aluminum, gold, silver, seawater, etc.</em>

The opposite of conductors are called "insulators." These do not allow the free movement of charges from one object to the other.

Examples of insulators: <em>plastic, rubber, paper, glass, wool, dry air, etc.</em>

How much displacement will a spring with a constant of 120N / m achieve if it is stretched by a force of 60N?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

There's a formula for this:

F = k*displacement

F being force, k being the spring constant, and displacement being the change in x

We are given the force and the spring constant, so this is essentially isolating the Δx term. Do 60N/120N per meter. The newtons cancel out and you get a final answer of Δx = 0.5 meters

A person is lying on a diving board 3.50 m above the surface of the water in a swimming pool. She looks at a penny that is on th
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

1.995 m

Explanation:

Distance of penny as seen by the person = 5 m

Height of person from water surface = 3.50 m

Apparent depth of penny = 5 - 3.50 = 1.5 m

refractive index of water, n = 1.33

real depth / apparent depth = n

real depth = 1.33 x 1.5 = 1.995 m

Thus, the actual depth of water at that point is 1.995 m.

Heather and Matthew walk with an average velocity of 0.98 m/s eastward. If it takes them 34 min to walk to the store, what is th
TEA [102]

Answer:

D= 1999.2 m

Explanation:

Given that

Average velocity ,v= 0.98 m/s

time ,t= 34 min

We know that

1 min  = 60 s

That is why

t= 34 x 60 =2040 s

We know that

Displacement = Average velocity x time

D= v t

Now by putting the values in the above equation

D= 0.98 x 2040 m

D= 1999.2 m (eastward)

The direction of the displacement will be towards eastward.

That is why the displacement will be 1999.2 m or we can say that 1.9992 km.
