Answer:

The ratio of the potential difference across a metallic conductor to the current in the conductor is known as.

B. Resistance.

Explanation:

According to ohms law   " the current  passing through a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference between the ends provided the temperature of the wire remains constant".

What is resistance ?

Resistance is a measure of the opposition to current flow in an electrical circuit

what is a resistor ?

a resistor is a n electric conductor which forms resistance to free flow of electric current, the resistance is measured in Ω

What tripositive ion has the electron configuration [kr] 4d3 ? what neutral atom has the electron configuration [kr] 5s 2 4d2 ?
tigry1 [53]

(a)

Electronic configuration is given as follows:

[Kr]4d^{3}

Since, this is the electronic configuration of ion with+3 that means 3 electrons are removed. On adding the 3 electrons, the electronic configuration of neutral atom can be obtained.

Thus, electronic configuration of neutral atom is [Kr]4d^{5}5s^{1}.

The atomic number of Kr is 36, thus, total number of electrons become 36+6=42.

This corresponds to element: molybdenum. Thus, the tripositive atom will be Mo^{3+}.

(b) The given electronic configuration is [Kr]5s^{2}4d^{2}.

The atomic number of Kr is 36, thus, total number of electrons become 36+4=40.

This corresponds to element zirconium, represented by symbol Zr.

Describe how the student should measure the time taken for the toy parachute to
PolarNik [594]

The time must be measured with respect to gravity. As it falls, it has free fall that is the force acting on it will be the gravity.With the distance in account, d = 1/2 gt²

t = √(2d/g)

How much support force does a table exert on a book that weighs 15 N when the book is placed on the table?
mestny [16]

Answer:

15 N

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law of motion, to every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This reaction is equal in magnitude to the force acting but in an opposite direction.

Now, if the book weighs 15 N, an opposite equal force will be: N = -15 N

But the magnitude of this will be the absolute value which is 15N.
