Answer:

a = 1 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

mass of the person = 60 Kg

Net External force exerted = 90 N

force of friction opposing the motion = 30 N

acceleration of the box = ?

Net force = External force applied - frictional force

Net force = 90 - 30

net force = 60 N

we know

F = mass x acceleration

60 = 60 x a

a = 1 m/s²

acceleration of the box is equal to a = 1 m/s²

If the pressure inside the cylinder increases to 1.6 atm, what is the final volume, in milliliters, of the cylinder?
Bess [88]

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

The air in the cylinder with a piston has a volume of 220 mL and a pressure of 650 mmHg.

If the pressure inside the cylinder increases to 1.6 atm, what is the final volume, in milliliters, of the cylinder?

Answer : The final volume of the cylinder is, 117.6 mL

Explanation :

Boyle's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

P\propto \frac{1}{V}

or,

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas = 650 mmHg = 0.855 atm   (1 atm = 760 mmHg)

P_2 = final pressure of gas = 1.6 atm

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 220 mL

V_2 = final volume of gas = ?

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

0.855atm\times 220mL=1.6atm\times V_2

V_2=117.6mL

Therefore, the final volume of the cylinder is, 117.6 mL

Define conductor and insulator, including how the resistance is different in the two, and give at least one example of each.
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Those substances which can conduct electricity are called conductors, while those substances which don't conduct electricity are called insulators.

Resistance is the obstruction provided by the material through which the current passes,so since conductors conduct electricity and insulators don't,so the obstruction i.e resistance provided by the conductor must be less,while insulators being unable to conduct electricity,has very high resistance.

Example of conductor is copper

Example of insulator is plastic
