What elements are good conductors of electricity?

kramer

In solids: All metals are good conductors of electricity as they contain free moving electrons. Non-metals doesn't conduct , but we consider Graphite the only non-metal that can conduct electricity for the presence of free moving electrons.

In Liquids ; Ionic compunds contains free moving ions , so they conduct electricity as well .

Bill and Nageen have each built an electric motor and they are testing them by having them lift boxes. Bill's motor lifts a box

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Bill's motor power: W_B = F x S / T = F x 0.35 / 2= 0.175F

Nageen's motor power: W_N = F x S / T = F x 0.35 / 1.8 = 0.194F

=> 0.194F > 0.175F => Nageen's motor applied more power to the box than Bill's motor.

PLEASE ANSWER QUICK!! What happens at the condensation point?A. Molecules of a liquid heat up and begin to convert to a gaseous

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

D. Molecules of a gas slow down and change to a liquid state.

Explanation:

Condensation refers to a process by which a gas changes from gaseous state to liquid state. For example, water vapor changes to from the state of being a gas to liquid state water.
Condensation is the opposite of evaporation and occurs when gaseous particles slow down and change into liquid state.
Heat energy is lost during condensation and gaseous molecules lose kinetic energy making them to slow down and thus changing to liquid state,

Consider the model above. It represents the electrical force. As r increases, the attractive force decreases. How would this mod

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

As we keep on increasing the radius the value of the gravitation force of attraction decreases and as we decrease the radius the gravitation force increases.

Explanation:

Like the coulombs law of electrostatics, the law of gravitation also depends inversely on the square of the value of r. Therefore, as we keep on increasing the value of r the value of the gravitation force decreases and as we decrease the value of the r the value of gravitation force increases.

Gravitation Force= $\frac{Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2}}$

Coulombs's Law= $\frac{Kq_{1}q_{2} }{r^{2}}$

A hanging weight, with a mass of m1 = 0.365 kg, is attached by a string to a block with mass m2 = 0.825 kg as shown in the figur

morpeh [17]

The speed of the block after it has moved the given distance away from the initial position is 1.1 m/s.

<h3>Angular Speed of the pulley </h3>

The angular speed of the pulley after the block m1 fall through a distance, d, is obatined from conservation of energy and it is given as;

K.E = P.E

$\frac{1}{2} mv^2 + \frac{1}{2} I\omega^2 = mgh\\\\\frac{1}{2} m_2v_0^2 + \frac{1}{2} \omega^2(m_1R^2_2 + m_2R_2^2) + \frac{1}{2} \omega^2( \frac{1}{2} MR_1^2 + \frac{1}{2} MR_2^2) = m_1gd- \mu_km_2gd\\\\\frac{1}{2} m_2v_0^2 + \frac{1}{2} \omega^2[R_2^2(m_1 + m_2)+ \frac{1}{2} M(R_1^2 + R_2^2)] = gd(m_1 - \mu_k m_2)\\\\$

$\frac{1}{2} m_2v_0 + \frac{1}{4} \omega^2[2R_2^2(m_1 + m_2) + M(R^2_1 + R^2_2)] = gd(m_1 - \mu_k m_2)\\\\2m_2v_0 + \omega^2 [2R_2^2(m_1 + m_2) + M(R^2_1 + R^2_2)] = 4gd(m_1 - \mu_k m_2)\\\\\omega^2 [2R_2^2(m_1 + m_2) + M(R^2_1 + R^2_2)] = 4gd(m_1 - \mu_k m_2) - 2m_2v_0^2\\\\\omega^2 = \frac{ 4gd(m_1 - \mu_k m_2) - 2m_2v_0^2}{2R_2^2(m_1 + m_2) + M(R^2_1 + R^2_2)} \\\\\omega = \sqrt{\frac{ 4gd(m_1 - \mu_k m_2) - 2m_2v_0^2}{2R_2^2(m_1 + m_2) + M(R^2_1 + R^2_2)}} \\\\$

Substitute the given parameters and solve for the angular speed;

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{ 4(9.8)(0.7)(0.365 \ - \ 0.25\times 0.825) - 2(0.825)(0.82)^2}{2(0.03)^2(0.365 \ + \ 0.825)\ \ +\ \ 0.35(0.02^2\ + \ 0.03^2)}} \\\\\omega = \sqrt{\frac{3.25}{0.00214\ + \ 0.000455 } } \\\\\omega = 35.39 \ rad/s$

<h3>Linear speed of the block</h3>

The linear speed of the block after travelling 0.7 m;

v = ωR₂

v = 35.39 x 0.03

v = 1.1 m/s

Thus, the speed of the block after it has moved the given distance away from the initial position is 1.1 m/s.
