A. write two or three sentences to describe the conductivity of an insulator. explain its conductivity in terms of the electrons in it.

b. what is resistance? how does the resistance of a long wire compare with the resistance of a short wire? how does the resistance of a thick wire that has a large cross sectional area compare with the resistance of a thin wire?

c. what is the power of a lightbulb that has a current of 1.46 a at 120. v?

PART A)

Conductivity of insulator is very small as there is no free electrons to conduct the current trough that medium

So here number of conduction electrons are very less in insulators

PART B)

Resistance is the property of a conducting medium which will oppose the flow of current trough it

Resistance of wire directly depends on its length so resistance of long wire will be more than the resistance of short wire

Resistance inversely depends on the area so if a wire has more crossectional area then its resistance must be small

PART C)

power of light bulb is defined as rate of electrical energy

it is given by formula

P = i V

here we know that

i = 1.46 A

V = 120 volts

so power is given as

d is the answer i came up with

a

explanation:

no diagram was provided, but i'm guessing it's the one i've attached to my answer.

here, a mechanical force turns the rod.   this generates an electric current in the coil, which powers the bulb.
