Sure! Here are the explanations for each question:
1. To determine if the statement is true or false, we need to understand the concept of insulators. Insulators are materials that do not allow the easy flow of electric current. The ability of a material to insulate is determined by its atomic structure. In the case of glass, the statement is false. Glass is not a good insulator because the atoms in glass do not hold on tightly to their negatively charged particles. Therefore, the answer is B. False.
2. To determine the correct statement, we need to understand how charges on objects interact with each other. Like charges repel each other, while opposite charges attract. Based on this information, the correct statement is B. Objects with the same charge repel each other, and objects with opposite charges attract each other.
3. To determine the correct conclusion, we need more information about the interactions mentioned in the question. Unfortunately, the question does not provide enough context to make a conclusive decision. Therefore, none of the given options can be identified as correct.
4. An electromagnetic field is produced by the interaction of electric charges. When electric charges move, they create a magnetic field, and when they change their motion, they produce an electric field. Combined, these fields constitute an electromagnetic field.
5. When a current runs through a conductor, a magnetic field is produced around the conductor.
6. Insulators have high resistance, while conductors have high conductivity.
7. To determine the relationship between voltage, resistance, and current, we need to recall Ohm's Law, which states that current is equal to voltage divided by resistance (I = V/R). Based on this relationship, if the voltage in circuit A is less than the voltage in circuit B (10V < 15V), and the current is determined by the voltage and the resistance, we can conclude that the resistance in circuit A must be greater than the resistance in circuit B, and the current in circuit A must be less than the current in circuit B.
8. Adding a resistor to an electric circuit affects the current by decreasing it. A resistor resists the flow of electric current, causing a decrease in the amount of electric charge passing through the circuit.
9. When a toaster is plugged into an outlet in the wall and used to make toast, electrical energy from the outlet is converted to thermal energy (heat) and light energy for toasting.
10. The statement is generally true. The energy from the sun might be greater than the energy needs of a house, especially in cases of excess solar power generation. In such cases, the excess energy can be stored in batteries or wasted if not utilized.
11. If the switch in a circuit is left OPEN (off), the buzzer will not make a noise because the circuit is not complete. A complete circuit is required for the flow of electric current and the operation of the buzzer.
12. The battery represents the power source. The on/off object represents the switch. The lightbulb represents the load. The wire represents the conductor.
