We can confirm that when you travel in an elevator, the utricle and saccule detect when the elevator is moving.

<h3>What are the utricle and saccule?</h3>

These are small organs located in the inner ear. They serve a very important function in our everyday life. These otolith organs are responsible for the detection of movement and provide us with a sense of spatial orientation. They accomplish this by stimulating very small, hair-like cells with a specialized fluid.

Therefore, we can confirm that when you travel in an elevator, the utricle and saccule detect when the elevator is accelerating or decelerating.

A spring with spring constant 33N/m is attached to the ceiling, and a 4.8-cm-diameter, 1.5kg metal cylinder is attached to its l
mylen [45]

Answer:

0.423m

Explanation:

Conversion to metric unit

d = 4.8 cm = 0.048m

Let water density be \who_w = 1000 kg/m^3

Let gravitational acceleration g = 9.8 m/s2

Let x (m) be the length that the spring is stretched in equilibrium, x is also the length of the cylinder that is submerged in water since originally at a non-stretching position, the cylinder barely touches the water surface.

Now that the system is in equilibrium, the spring force and buoyancy force must equal to the gravity force of the cylinder. We have the following force equation:

F_s + F_b = W

Where F_s = kxN is the spring force, F_b = W_w = m_wg = \rho_w V_s g is the buoyancy force, which equals to the weight W_w of the water displaced by the submerged portion of the cylinder, which is the product of water density \rho_w, submerged volume V_s and gravitational constant g. W = mg is the weight of the metal cylinder.

kx + \rho_w V_s g = mg

The submerged volume would be the product of cross-section area and the submerged length x

V_s = Ax = \pi(d/2)^2x

Plug that into our force equation and we have

kx + \rho_w \pi(d/2)^2x g = mg

x(k + \rho_w g \pi d^2/4) = mg

x = \frac{m}{(k/g) + (\rho_w\pi d^2/4)} = \frac{1.5}{(33/9.8) + (100*\pi * 0.048^2/4)} = 0.423 m

the resistivity of a given wire of cross session area 0.7mm² is 49×10⁴.calcuate the resistance of a 2m lenght of wire​
sp2606 [1]

R = 1.4GΩ.

The relation between the resistance and the resistivity is given by the equation R = ρL/A, where ρ is the resistivity of a given material, L is the length and A is the cross-sectional area of the material.

To calculate the resistance of a wire of L = 2m, ρ = 49x10⁴Ω.m and A = 0.7mm² = 0.7x10⁻³m² we have to use the equation  R = ρL/A.

R = [(49x10⁴Ω.m)(2m)/0.7x10⁻³m²

R = 98x10⁴Ω.m²/0.7x10⁻³m²

R = 1.4x10⁹Ω = 1.4GΩ
