Why are shocks worse when you touch conductors rather than insulators?

KengaRu [80]3 years ago

conductors allows smooth flow of electricity through them as they have very small resistance. On the other hand, insulators does not allow electricity to pass through them as they offer high resistance to current.

so touching the conductors easily transfers the electricity through the body resulting in shock.

touching the insulator allows very small current to pass to the body. hence the shock experienced in case of insulators is very weak.

Conductors tend to heat up really quickly unlike insulators so it hurts more when you get shocked by a conductor.

Raul wants to study how pot size affects the growth of plants. To do this, he intends to purchase three different pots of varyin
hram777 [196]

Answer: The answer position may vary. But the correct answer is D. No; Raul changes more than one variable so the results will be invalid.

Explanation:

Raul's experimental set-up will not produce valid results because he intends to change more than one variable.

One variable that Raul will change is the pot size. According to the description, however, Raul will also change one other variable—the type of flower that is planted. Even though Raul plans on using flowers only, he should use the same type of flower in each pot, not different types.

Valid results are only produced when only one variable is changed at a time.

Red Sox designated hitter, David Ortiz, swings at a 0.15 kg baseball and accelerates it at a rate of 3.0 • 10^4 m/s^2. How much
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Explanation:

A lot.  That's why he was one of Boston's star hitters.

m = 0.15 kg

a = 3.0 * 10^4

F = ?

F = 0.15 * 3*10^4

F = 0.45 * 10^4

F = 4.5 * 10^3 Newtons

You should always express scientific notation as a number between 1 and 10 or 1 < x < 10. The power will determine the exact value of the number expressed as a scientific notation.
