Why are conductors better than insulators to carry electric current

Chemistry
1 answer:
marysya [2.9K]2 years ago
5 0

Conductors are better than insulators to carry electric current because they give the electricity the ability to flow freely throughout circuits. This helps the insulator to do its job of containing the electric charge. Examples of this would be a tv plug - the rubber surrounding the TV plug helps to keep the conductors (wires) in place, thus helping to facilitate an electric charge.

Lakesha gave three tenths of her cookies to Bailey and five tenths of her cookies to Helen. What fraction of her cookies did Lak
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

a . eight tenths of her cookies

Explanation:

Let the total number of Lakesha's cookies be represented by x.

So that;

She gave three tenths to Bailey = \frac{3}{10} of x

                                                     = \frac{3x}{10}

She gave five tenths to Helen = \frac{5}{10} of x

                                                  = \frac{5x}{10}

Fraction of Lakesha's cookies given away = \frac{3x}{10} + \frac{5x}{10}

                                                      = \frac{3x+ 5x}{10}

                                                      = \frac{8x}{10}

Thus, the fraction of cookies given away by Lakesha is \frac{8}{10}.
