Answer:

  1. Fibreglass - Insulator
  2. piece of paper - Insulator
  3. copper - Conductor
  4. Stone - Insulator
  5. Aluminium - Conductor
  6. plastic spoon - Insulator
  7. Iron - Conductor
  8. Wood - Insulator
  9. Ruler - Conductor/Insulator
  10. Plastic straw - Insulator
  11. Glass - Insulator
  12. Brass - Conductor
  13. Gold - Conductor
  14. Cotton bud - Insulator
  15. Silver - Conductor

Explanation:

Conductors are substances that can conduct electricity/heat. Usually, metals are good conductors as they have free electrons — electrons that are loosely held by the nucleus and are free to travel across the surface<em>(they stay on the surface and are not free to <u>escape</u><u> </u><u>into the</u><u> </u><u>surrounding</u><u> </u></em><em><u>space</u></em><em>)</em><em>.</em>

These free electrons help in the conduction of heat/electricity. Hence, substances containing these free particles are conductors.

Insulators do not allow heat/electricity to flow through them. Mostly, they are made up of molecules that are held together by strong intermolecular forces<em>(eg: Plastic )</em>.

[Note#9: Metal rulers are conductors whereas wooden rulers are insulators so, "ruler" comes under the category of both insulator as well as conductor].

A potter’s wheel of radius 17 cm starts from rest and rotates with constant angular acceleration until at the end of 32 s it is
dedylja [7]

Answer:

α=0.625rad/s^2

v=340m/s

w=10rad/s

θ=320rad

Explanation:

Constant angular acceleration = ∆w/∆t

angular acceleration = 20/32

α=0.625rad/s^2

Linear velocity v=wr

v = 20×17= 340m/s

Average angular velocity

w0+w1/2

w= 0+20/2

w= 20/2

w=10rad/s

What angle did it rotate with

θ=wt

θ= 10×32

=320rad

A student launches a small 0.5 kg rocket with an initial speed of 30 m/s at an angle of 60°. Approximately how much time will th
Elena L [17]

Answer:

t=5.30s

Explanation:

The high reached by a proyectile in an uniformly accelerated motion is given by:

y=v_{0y}t-\frac{gt^2}{2}

The time that the rocket spends in the air is obtained for y = 0, since this is the time that the rocket travels before touching the ground. Recall that v_{0y}=v_0sin\theta. Solving for t:

0=(v_0sin\theta) t-\frac{gt^2}{2}\\\frac{gt}{2}=v_0sin\theta\\t=\frac{2v_0sin\theta}{g}\\t=\frac{2(30\frac{m}{s})sin(60^\circ)}{9.8\frac{m}{s^2}}\\t=5.30s

A football was kicked so that it traveled 65 yards in 3.0 total seconds. What was the speed
Olin [163]

Answer:

vx = 65 yd/3 sec  = 21.7 yd/sec  since horizontal speed is constant

vy = g t = (32 / 3) yd/sec^2 * 1.5 sec = 16 yd/sec   where 32/3 is the acceleration due to gravity in yds / sec^2  and 1.5 is the time to travel each way in the vertical direction

V = (vx^2 + vy^2)^1/2 = (21.7^2 + 16^2)^1/2 = 27 yd/sec

tan theta = vy/vx = 16 / 21.7 = .737    theta = 36.4 deg

You can check using the range formula:

R = v^2 sin (2 theta) / g = 27^2 * .955 / (32 / 3) = 65.3 yds  

The difference from 65 yds may be rounding error.
