Answer: Wood is an insulator.

Explanation: Conductors are those substances which allow heat and electricity to pass through them.Example: Metals

Insulators are those substances which do not allow heat and electricity to pass through them. Example: wood

Pots and pans should be made of conducting material as the heat needs to be transferred from the burner to the pot and then to the food for cooking.

But the handles should be made from insulators so that they do not become hot and thus we can hold the utensil using the handles without getting burnt.

Electrons and protons travel from the Sun to the Earth at a typical velocity of 3.83 ✕ 105 m/s in the positive x-direction. Thou

Leona [35]

Answer:

$F=2.84*10^{-26}N$ & -y direction

$F=2.84*10^{-26}N$ & +y direction

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Speed of electron $V_e=3.83 * 10^5 m/s$ +x direction

Earths magnetic field $B_e=3.04 * 10^-^8$ +z direction

Generally the equation for magnetic force $F_m$ is mathematically given by

$F=q(V_e*B_e)$

where

$q=1.6*10^{-19}c\\\=i*\=z=-\=j$

$F=1.6*10^{-19}(3.83 * 10^5 m/s*3.04 * 10^-^8)$

$F=-2.84*10^{-26}N \=j$

Magnitude & Direction

$F=2.84*10^{-26}N$ -y direction

Generally the equation for magnitude and direction of the magnetic force on an electron. is mathematically given by

$\=F'=-1.6*10^{-19}(3.83 * 10^5 m/s*3.04 * 10^-^8)$

$\=F'=-2.84*10^{-26}N \=j$

Magnitude & Direction

$F=2.84*10^{-26}N$ & +y direction

wariber [46]

Answer:

Alburt Bandura

Explanation:

Rosalind has learned to be impulsive and seldom waits for her turn when playing with other children, this trait she has learned from her father, who is also an impulsive man.

The theorist who would most likely suggest that Rosalind has learned to be impulsive from watching her father is Alburt Bandura. Alburt in his famous Bebo Doll experiment confirmed that children learn from the adults behavior in their life.

In the graph, which region shows nonuniform positive acceleration?

cricket20 [7]

Answer: A.AB

Explanation:

This Velocity vs Time graph shows the acceleration of a body or object, since acceleration is the variation of velocity in time.

As we can see in the attached image, the graph can be divided in four segments:

OA: In this segment the acceleration is changing at a uniform rate. In addition we can see it has a positive slope, hence we are dealing with a positive uniform acceleration.

AB: In this segment the acceleration is changing at a nonuniform rate, since in this part it is not possible to calculate the slope. However if this were uniform, the slope woul be positive. This means the <u>acceleration is nonuniform and positive.</u>

BC: In this segment the acceleration is changing at a nonuniform rate, since in this part it is not possible to calculate the slope. However if this were uniform, the slope woul be negative. This means the acceleration is nonuniform and negative.

CD: In this segment the acceleration is changing at a uniform rate. In addition we can see it has a negative slope, hence we are dealing with a negative uniform acceleration.

From all these segments, the only one that fulfils the nonuniform positive acceleration condition is option A:

Segment AB

A punter wants to kick a football so that the football has a total flight time of 4.70s and lands 56.0m away (measured along the

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

Explanation:

How long does the football need to rise?

4.70/3 = 2.35 s

What height will the football reach?

h = ½(9.81)2.35² = 27.1 m

With what speed does the punter need to kick the football?

vy = g•t = 9.81(2.35) = 23.1 m/s

vx = d/t = 56.0/4.70 = 11.9 m/s

v = √(vx²+vy²) = 26.0 m/s

At what angle (θ), with the horizontal, does the punter need to kick the football?

θ = arctan(vy/vx) = 62.7°
