Answer:
Rubber is an insulator.
Explanation:
Rubber is an insulator. Electricity will always travel "the path of least resistance." Rubber has a very high resistance, so electricity will go somewhere else to find ground.
Answer:
(a) 
(b) 
(c) K.E. = 21.168 J
(d) 
Explanation:
Given:
- mass of a block, M = 3.6 kg
- initial velocity of the block,

- constant downward acceleration,

That a constant upward acceleration of
is applied in the presence of gravity.
∴
- height through which the block falls, d = 4.2 m
(a)
Force by the cord on the block,



∴Work by the cord on the block,


We take -ve sign because the direction of force and the displacement are opposite to each other.

(b)
Force on the block due to gravity:

∵the gravity is naturally a constant and we cannot change it


∴Work by the gravity on the block,



(c)
Kinetic energy of the block will be equal to the net work done i.e. sum of the two works.
mathematically:


K.E. = 21.168 J
(d)
From the equation of motion:

putting the respective values:

is the speed when the block has fallen 4.2 meters.
Exercise is the answer hope i helped you
Answer:
25 mm = 0 deg C
200 mm = 100 deg C
200 - 25 = 175 = change in thread per 100 deg C
95 - 25 = 70 mm - change in thread from 0 deg C
70 / 175 * 100 = 40 deg C final temperature at 95 mm
