Answer: D) 3.2 × 10^8

Explanation: Insulators are best described as materials which are poor conductors of electricity and hence do not allow passage of electricity through them. Resistivity are hence used to describe property or characteristic of a material which does not allow the flow or passage of electric current.

In summary, materials which high resistivity values are referred to as Insulators. Conversely, those with low resistivity or high conductivity values are called conductors while those with intermediate values are named semiconductors.

In the question given above, the material with a resistivity value of 3.2 × 10^8 - - - has a very high resistivity value (320000000Ω), the other options given have very low resistivity values ; 0.0000000017, etc and are most likely to be conductors due to their excessively low resistivity values.

An electronic balance shows the mass of a sample of sodium chloride to be 29.732 g. what is the uncertainty of the measurement
OLEGan [10]

The uncertainty of the measurement is 0.001 gm.

The uncertainty in the measurement of a physical quantity is given as how precisely we can measure that, in this case as we can see that the mass of the sodium chloride is precisely given as 29.732 gm, this means the electronic scale is precise to 0.001 gm and round of the values after that which means there is a uncertainty of 0.001 gm.

A. 2kg<br><br> B. 6kg<br><br> C. 8kg<br><br> D. 14kg
Sati [7]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

We know the force is (16N-12), which is 4N, and we know the acceleration is 2 m/s^2. Meaning, we can solve the formula m = F / a (mass equals force divided by acceleration), and we get 2kg.
