Answer:

In conductive materials, the outer electrons in each atom can easily come or go, and are called free electrons. In insulating materials, the outer electrons are not so free to move. All metals are electrically conductive.

Make the following conversion. 34.9 cL = _____ hL. 0.349 0.0349 0.00349 349,000

AnnyKZ [126]

Hey there!

Here is your answer:

The proper answer to this question is option C "0.00349".

Reason:

1 L = 100 cL. Or 1 cL = 0.01 L

34.9 cL = 34.9 / 100 L = 0.349 L

 1 hL = 100 L. 0.349 L = 0.349 / 100 hL = 0.00349 hL

Therefore the answer is option C!

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!

Light of wavelength 400 nm is incident on a single slit of width 15 microns. If a screen is placed 2.5 m from the slit. How far

olganol [36]

Answer:

0.0667 m

Explanation:

λ = wavelength of light = 400 nm = 400 x 10⁻⁹ m

D = screen distance = 2.5 m

d = slit width = 15 x 10⁻⁶ m

n = order = 1

θ = angle = ?

Using the equation

d Sinθ = n λ

(15 x 10⁻⁶) Sinθ = (1) (400 x 10⁻⁹)

Sinθ = 26.67 x 10⁻³

y = position of first minimum

Using the equation for small angles

tanθ = Sinθ = y/D

26.67 x 10⁻³ = y/2.5

y = 0.0667 m

A flat sheet of ice has a thickness of 2.20 cm. It is on top of a flat sheet of crystalline quartz that has a thickness of 1.50

kolezko [41]

Answer:

$Distance_{vaccum}=5.19cm$

Explanation:

The speed of light in these mediums shall be lower than that in vacuum thus the total time light needs to cross both the media are calculated as under

Total time = Time taken through ice + Time taken through quartz

Time taken through ice = Thickness of ice / (speed of light in ice)

$T_{ice}=\frac{2.20\times 10^{-2} \times \mu _{ice}}{V_{vaccum}}$

$T_{quartz}=\frac{1.50\times 10^{-2} \times \mu _{quartz}}{V_{vaccum}}$

Thus in the same time the it would had covered a distance of

$Distance_{vaccum}=Totaltime\times V_{vaccum}\\\\Distance_{vaccum}=10^{-2}[2.20\mu _{ice+1.50\mu _{quartz}}]$

we have

$\mu _{ice}=1.309\\\\\mu _{quartz}=1.542$

Applying values we have

$Distance_{vaccum}=10^{-2}[2.20\times 1.309+1.50\times 1.542]$

$Distance_{vaccum}=5.19cm$

A 460 W heating unit is designed to operate with an applied potential difference of 120 V (a) By what percentage will its heat o

dybincka [34]

Answer:

(a) = -0.16%

(b) = smaller

Explanation:

given

power = 460 W

potential difference = 120 V

(a) what percentage will its heat output drop if the applied potential difference drops to 110 V ?

we know $p = \frac{v^2}{R}$ .....................(i)

we need to find change in power

$\Delta P = \frac{\Delta (V^2)}{R}$

$\Delta P = \frac{2 V \Delta V}{R}$ ..............(ii)

from equations we get

$\frac{\Delta P}{P} = \frac{2 \Delta V}{V}$

$\frac{\Delta P}{P} = 2 \frac{110 -120}{120}$

$\frac{\Delta P}{P} = -2(\frac{10}{120})$

$\frac{\Delta P}{P} = - 0.16 %$

(b)

if we increase temperature resistance will increase and decrease with decrease in temperature and we know power is inversely proportional to resistance so if potential decrease and it would cause drop in power

and due to this increment of heating power resistance will decrease so actual drop in the power would be smaller
