B) Copper atoms have a loosely held free electron in their outer shell that is able to move freely to other atoms.
NARA [144]2 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.

A football player collides with another player. The force of the collision is
iragen [17]

Answer:

Impulse = 1000 Ns

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Force of collision = 1000 kg•m/s.

Time = 1 seconds

To find the impulse;

Mathematically, the impulse experienced by an object or body is given by the formula;

Impulse = force * time

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Impulse = 1000 * 1

Impulse = 1000 Ns

Match the following vocabulary words with their definitions:
Ronch [10]

Correct matching:


1 acceleration --> rate of change in velocity, which is the change in velocity divided by the change in time

2. speed --> the rate at which an object changes position when traveling in a certain direction

4. gravity --> force of attraction between all masses in the universe

5. Inertia --> an object´s resistance to a change in motion

3. friction --> force of resistance acting between objects in contact and tending to dampen their motion

6. velocity --> the rate at which an object changes position

Why do mirrors form inverted images?
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The image is real light rays actually focus at the image location). As the object moves towards the mirror the image location moves further away from the mirror and the image size grows (but the image is still inverted).

Current passes through a solution of sodium chloride. In 1.00 s, 2.68×1016Na+ ions arrive at the negative electrode and 3.92×101
Tanzania [10]

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of sodium ions at the negative electrode, Na^+=2.68\times 10^{16}

Number of chloride ions at the positive electrode, Cl^-=3.92\times 10^{16}

(a) The current flowing in the circuit is due to the positive as well as negative charges such that total charge becomes:

Q=(Na^++Cl^-)e

Q=(2.68\times 10^{16}+3.92\times 10^{16})(1.6\times 10^{-19})

Q = 0.01056 C

The current is given by :

I=\dfrac{Q}{t}

I=\dfrac{0.01056}{1}=10.56\ mA

So, the current passing between the electrodes is 10.56 mA.

(b) The direction of electric current is towards negative electrodes.
