A material through which a current does not move easily is a(n) _____.

1 answer:

6 0

<span>A material through which a current does not move easily is called
an insulator.

Technically, charges CAN move through an insulator, but they lose
a lot of energy doing it, so the current that flows through the insulator
is very very small, usually too small to even measure.

Another way to look at it: Insulators have high resistance.

You throw a 50.0g blob of clay directly at the wall with an initial velocity of -5.00 m/s i. The clay sticks to the wall, and th

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:0.25 kg-m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of blob $m=50 gm$

initial velocity $u=-5 m/s\ \hat{i}$

time of collision $t=20 ms$

we know Impulse is equal to change in momentum

initial momentum $P_i=mu$

$P_i=50\times 10^{-3}\times (-5)=-0.25 kg-m/s$

Final momentum $P_f=50\times 10^{-3}v$

$P_f=0$ as final velocity is zero

Impulse $J=P_f-P_i$

$J=0-(-0.25)$

$J=0.25 kg-m/s$

A force acting on a body causes a change in the momentum of the from 12 kgms-1 to 16 kgms-1 in 0.2 s. calculate the magnitude of

Nonamiya [84]

Answer: Impulse = 4 kgm/s

Explanation:

From the question, you're given the following parameters:

Momentum P1 = 12 kgm/s

Momentum P2 = 16 kgm/s

Time t = 0.2 s

According to second law of motion,

Force F = change in momentum ÷ time

That is

F = (P2 - P1)/t

Cross multiply

Ft = P2 - P1

Where Ft = impulse

Substitute P1 and P2 into the formula

Impulse = 16 - 12 = 4 kgm/s

The magnitude of the impulse is therefore 4 kgm/s.

What type of plate boundary decreases the amount of the Earth's crust?

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Convergent.

Explanation:

Just as oceanic crust is formed at mid-ocean ridges, it is destroyed in subduction zones. Subduction is the important geologic process in which a tectonic plate made of dense lithospheric material melts or falls below a plate made of less-dense lithosphere at a convergent plate boundary.
