What is necessary for a substance to be a conductor of electricity?
Stella [2.4K]
The main requirement for a good conductor of electricity is to have a lot of valence electrons. Valence electrons are the electrons of the outer shells of atoms not bound with other atoms (for example through covalent bounds). These electrons are "free to escape" as soon as an electric field with enough intensity is applied to the material, and therefore these electrons will be free to move in the material producing an electric current.

To test the performance of its tires, a car
Rom4ik [11]

The coefficient of static friction is 0.222

Explanation:

In order for the car to remain in circular motion, the frictional force must be able to provide the necessary centripetal force. Therefore, the car will start skidding when the two forces are equal:

\mu mg=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where the term on the left is the frictional force, while the term on the right is the centripetal force, and where

\mu is the coefficient of static friction

m is the mass of the car

g is the acceleration of gravity

v is the speed of the car

r is the radius of the track

In this problem, we have:

r = 564 m

v = 35 m/s

g=9.8 m/s^2

And re-arranging the equation for \mu, we can find the coefficient of static friction:

\mu = \frac{v^2}{gr}=\frac{35^2}{(9.8)(564)}=0.222

Un avión da "una vuelta mortal" de radio R = 500 m con una celeridad constante v = 360 km/h. Halla la fuerza ejercida por el asi
Airida [17]

Answer:

1400 N

Explanation:

Verá, durante el salto mortal, el piloto se mueve en una trayectoria circular y la fuerza que actúa sobre él es una fuerza centrípeta.

Sea la fuerza centrípeta F, la masa del piloto (m) = 70 Kg, el radio (r) = 500 my la velocidad (v) = 360 km / hr * 1000/3600 = 100 m / s

F = mv ^ 2 / r

F = 70 * (100) ^ 2/500

F = 1400 N

You are watching an archery tournament when you start wondering how fast an arrow is shot from the bow. Remembering your physics
spayn [35]

Answer:

v_0 = 3.53~{\rm m/s}

Explanation:

This is a projectile motion problem. We will first separate the motion into x- and y-components, apply the equations of kinematics separately, then we will combine them to find the initial velocity.

The initial velocity is in the x-direction, and there is no acceleration in the x-direction.

On the other hand, there no initial velocity in the y-component, so the arrow is basically in free-fall.

Applying the equations of kinematics in the x-direction gives

x - x_0 = v_{x_0} t + \frac{1}{2}a_x t^2\\63 \times 10^{-3} = v_0t + 0\\t = \frac{63\times 10^{-3}}{v_0}

For the y-direction gives

v_y = v_{y_0} + a_y t\\v_y = 0 -9.8t\\v_y = -9.8t

Combining both equation yields the y_component of the final velocity

v_y = -9.8(\frac{63\times 10^{-3}}{v_0}) = -\frac{0.61}{v_0}

Since we know the angle between the x- and y-components of the final velocity, which is 180° - 2.8° = 177.2°, we can calculate the initial velocity.

\tan(\theta) = \frac{v_y}{v_x}\\\tan(177.2^\circ) = -0.0489 = \frac{v_y}{v_0} = \frac{-0.61/v_0}{v_0} = -\frac{0.61}{v_0^2}\\v_0 = 3.53~{\rm m/s}

A huge tank of glycerine with a density of 1.260 g/cm3 is vertically stationed on a platform which is 15 m above the ground. The
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

The tank is losing 4.976*10^{-4}  m^3/s

v_g = 19.81 \ m/s

Explanation:

According to the Bernoulli’s equation:

P_1 + 1 \frac{1}{2} \rho v_1^2 + \rho gh_1 = P_2 +  \frac{1}{2}  \rho v_2^2 + \rho gh_2

We are being informed that both the tank and the hole is being exposed to air :

∴ P₁ = P₂

Also as the tank is voluminous ; we take the initial volume  v_1 ≅ 0 ;

then v_2 can be determined as:\sqrt{[2g (h_1- h_2)]

h₁ = 5 + 15 = 20 m;

h₂ = 15 m

v_2 = \sqrt{[2*9.81*(20 - 15)]

v_2 = \sqrt{[2*9.81*(5)]

v_2= 9.9 \ m/s  as it leaves the hole at the base.

radius r = d/2  = 4/2 = 2.0 mm

(a) From the law of continuity; its equation can be expressed as:

J = A_1v_2

J = πr²v_2    

J =\pi *(2*10^{-3})^{2}*9.9

J =1.244*10^{-4}  m^3/s

b)

How fast is the water from the hole moving just as it reaches the ground?

In order to determine that; we use the relation of the velocity from the equation of motion which says:

v² = u² + 2gh ₂

v² = 9.9² + 2×9.81×15

v² = 392.31

The velocity of how fast the water from the hole is moving just as it reaches the ground is : v_g = \sqrt{392.31}

v_g = 19.81 \ m/s
