What makes a substance, such as aluminum, a good conductor?

Physics
1 answer:
spin [16.1K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

For a material to be a good conductor, the electricity passed through it must be able to move the electrons; the more free electrons in a metal, the greater its conductivity.

About 0.1 eV is required to break a "hydrogen bond" in a protein molecule. Calculate the minimum frequency and maximum wavelengt
Verdich [7]

Answer:

2.41\cdot 10^{13}Hz, 1.24\cdot 10^{-5}m

Explanation:

The energy of the photon must be equal to 0.1 eV, so let's convert this value into Joules first:

E=0.1 eV \cdot 1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J=1.6\cdot 10^{-20}J

The energy of the photon is related to its frequency by

E=hf

where h is the Planck constant and f is the frequency. Substituting,

f=\frac{E}{h}=\frac{1.6\cdot 10^{-20}J}{6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js}=2.41\cdot 10^{13}Hz

And now we can find the wavelength of the photon, which is given by

\lambda=\frac{c}{f}

where c is the speed of light. Substituting,

\lambda=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{2.41\cdot 10^{13} Hz}=1.24\cdot 10^{-5}m

As more resistors are added in series across a constant voltage source, the power supplied by the source: A) does not change. B)
Anon25 [30]

As series resistors are added, the resistance is added directly so the total resistance will be equal to

R_T = R_1+R_2+R_3... R_{\infty}

Since the power is determined as

P = \frac{V^2}{R}

We have there that

P \propto \frac{1}{R}

The power is inversely proportional to the increase in resistance, so it will tend to decrease as more resistors are added in series.

The correct answer is: C.
