Answer:

<h2>The answer is 1376 J</h2>

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 10 m/s²

From the question we have

PE = 8 × 10 × 17.2

We have the final answer as

<h3>1376 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

diamong [38]

Answer:

T_{2} = 606.69 K

Explanation:

In that the gas thermometer is a constant volume, it is satisfied that:

\frac{P_{1} }{T_{1} } = \frac{P_{2} }{T_{2} }  

How the boiling water is under regular atmospheric pressure, then

T_{1} = 373 .15 K

Thus

\frac{286000}{373.15} = \frac{465000}{T_{2} }

T_{2} = 606.69 K

What determines if a material is a conductor or an insulator? Explain your answer and provide at least one example of each.
Dmitry [639]
A conducting material conducts or allows electricity to flow, while an insulator does not allow electricity to flow. For example think of a water pipe, if the pipe has a hole water can flow, on the other hand if it is just a solid rod, no water can flow through. I hope this helps.
