B) Copper atoms have a loosely held free electron in their outer shell that is able to move freely to other atoms.
NARA [144]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

B) Copper atoms have loosely held free electrons in their outer shell that is able to move freely in other atoms.

Explanation:

A material which has loosely held free electrons in its outermost shell is always a good conductor. These loosely held free electrons move from atoms to atoms and cause conductivity. It is known that copper and other metals are good conductors. Therefore, option (B) supports the argument and is a right answer.

bothersome feature of many physical measurements is the presence of a background signal (commonly called "noise"). In Part 2.2.4
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

Incomplete question: "A signal of 20.7 mV is measured at a distance of 29 mm and 15.8 mV is measured at 32.5 mm. Correct the data for background and normalize the data to the maximum value. What is the normalized corrected value at 32.5 mm?"

The normalized corrected value at 32.5 mm is 0.1638

Explanation:

The corrected light measurement at 29 mm is equal to:

20.7 - 5.1 = 15.6 mV

The corrected light measurement at 32.5 mm is equal to:

15.6 - 5.1 = 10.5 mV

To normalize the data to its maximum value means that the maximum value must be calculated and the data must be scaled using that value, as in this case the maximum value is 15.6 mm, then the normalized corrected value at 32.5 mm is equal to:

10.5 * 15.6 = 163.8 = 0.1638

Suppose you have a glider and a hanging mass that you wish to know the masses of but you do not have a triple-beam balance avail
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

the choice of a glider to hanging mass is a ratio of 20.2

Explanation:

The Newton´s second law for glider is:

Fnet=Ma

T=Ma

The Newton´s second law for hanging mass is:

Fnet=ma

mag-T=ma

Replacing:

mag-Ma=ma (eq. 1)

Clearing a:

a=(mg)/(m+M)

The expression for motion is:

y=vot+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

H=0+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

Clearing a:

a=\frac{2H}{t^{2} }

Replacing values:

a=\frac{2*0.75}{1.8^{2} } =0.46

From eq. 1:

M/m=20.2

Conductive deafness occurs Because of damage to what part of the body
aliya0001 [1]
Conductive deafness refers to a malfunction of the middle ear. Those 3 ossicles (malleus, incus, stapes) are responsible for converting the sound wave and conducting it to the inner ear.

While Steve is trekking in the Rocky Mountains, he realizes that he does not have a compass. He decides to find north direction
wolverine [178]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The Sun's shine comes from right above the Equator. The Equator is south from the Rocky Mountains, so the sunshine comes from south and the shade (the opposite direction of the sun) is north.
