PLEASE ANSWER-Why are loose electrons needed for heat conduction?

Physics
1 answer:
dolphi86 [110]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Why do metals conduct heat so well? The electrons in metal are delocalised electrons and are free moving electrons so when they gain energy (heat) they vibrate more quickly and can move around, this means that they can pass on the energy more quickly.

A rope is tied to a box and used to pull the box 2.3 m along a horizontal floor. The rope makes an angle of 30∘ with the horizon
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

A) The work done by gravity is zero because displacement and the gravitational force are perpendicular to each other.

W= FS cosθ

θ= 90 ⇒cos90 = 0 ⇒W= 0

B) work done by tension

W= Tcosθ×S= 5cos30×2.30= 10J

C) Work done by friction force

W= f×s=1×2.30= 2.30 J

D) Work done by normal force is Zero because the displacement and the normal force are perpendicular to each other.

E) The net work done= Work done by tension in the rope - frictional work

=10-2.30= 7.7 J

In an experiment, a shearwater (a seabird) was taken from its nest, flown a distance 5220km away, and released. It found its way
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

-4.72005 m/s

0 m/s

Explanation:

Displacement = 5220 km

Time = 12.8 days

The average velocity is given by

v_a=\dfrac{0-5220\times 10^3}{12.8\times 24\times 60\times 60}\\\Rightarrow v_a=-4.72005\ m/s

The average  for the return flight is -4.72005 m/s

When the total displacement is divided by the total time of a journey then we get the average velocity.

Displacement is the minimum distance between the initial and final points of the journey.

Here, the displacement of the whole episode is 0 as the initial and final point is zero.

Hence, the average velocity for the whole episode is 0 m/s

A car starting from rest moves with constant acceleration of 2.0 m/s2 for 10 s, then travels with
12345 [234]

Answer: d = 400 m

Explanation:

Distance during acceleration

d = ½at² = ½(2.0)10² = 100 m

velocity after 10 s

v = 2.0(10) = 20 m/s

distance at constant speed

d = vt = 20(10) = 200 m

As the acceleration is the same magnitude while slowing down as speeding up, It will take the same distance to complete the deceleration 100 m

Total distance is 100 + 200 + 100 = 400 m
