Answer:

  • A conductor allows energy e.g. electric charge or heat to pass through it easily. While an insulator does not let electric current or heat to travel through it.
  • Insulators have strong molecular bonds. While molecular bonds are very weak in conductors.
  • Insulators have very low conductivity. While in conductors, it is very high.
  • Insulators have a very high resistance and therefore the electrons are held together very firmly. The conductors, on the other hand, have a very low resistance.
  • Insulators do not have any electric field, neither inside nor on the surface. While in conductors, it is found on the surface and continues to be zero in the inner part of the conductor.

According to the law of reflection, when a ray of light reflects off a surface, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. 

So in the above situation, if the incident ray makes an angle of 65° with respect to the normal to the mirror's surface, the angle of reflected ray will also be equal to 65 degrees. The attached image will explain this better.

So the answer is,

c. 65 degrees

3. In what circumstance will a flash of lightning travel through the sky and<br> touch the ground?
alexgriva [62]

Answer: The answer is both. Cloud-to-ground lightning comes from the sky down, but the part you see comes from the ground up. A typical cloud-to-ground flash lowers a path of negative electricity (that we cannot see) towards the ground in a series of spurts.
