Answer:

Magnification= -image distance/object distance

.253=image distance/33.5

image distance= 8.48 cm

Using at least 3 to 4 complete content related sentences describe the first and second postulate of special relativity.

Andrew [12]

Nothing can travel faster than the speed of light. As such, perceptions of objects and time change as they approach light speed, but the laws of physics remain consistent regardless of speed. Objects will appear shortened and time will appear to slow down around an observer approaching near light speeds, but all quantities still exist as they did before and all causality is preserved, even if observers in different points or traveling at different speeds will report different things.

Which do you think changes the land more frozen water or flowing water?

Maksim231197 [3]

I believe flowing water changes the land because eventually frozen water has to melt to flowing water, right?

A wire of Nichrome (a nickelâ€“ chromiumâ€“ iron alloy commonly used in heating elements) is 1.0 m long and 1.0 mmÂ² in cross-se

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The conductivity of Nichrome is $2\times 10^6\ S/m$ .

Explanation:

Given:

Potential difference (V) = 2.0 V

Current flowing (I) = 4.0 A

Length of wire (L) = 1.0 m

Area of cross section of wire (A) = 1.0 mm² = 1 × 10⁻⁶ m² [1 mm² = 10⁻⁶ m²]

We know, from Ohm's law, that the ratio of voltage and current is always a constant and equal to the resistance of the resistor. Therefore, the resistance of the nichrome wire is given as:

$R=\frac{V}{A}=\frac{2.0}{4.0}=0.5\ \Omega$

Now, resistance of the nichrome wire in terms of its resistivity, length and area of cross section is given as:

$R=\rho\frac{L}{A}$

Where, $\rho\to resistivity\ of\ Nichrome$

Now, plug in all the values given and solve for $\rho$ . This gives,

$0.5\ \Omega=\rho\frac{1.0\ m}{1\times 10^{-6}\ m^2}\\\\\rho=\frac{0.5\times 1\times 10^{-6}}{1.0}=0.5\times 10^{-6}\ \Omega-m$

Now, conductivity of a material is the reciprocal of its resistivity. Therefore, the conductivity of Nichrome is given as:

$\sigma=\frac{1}{\rho}=\frac{1}{0.5\times 10^{-6}}=2\times 10^6\ S/m$

Conductivity is measured in Siemens per meter (S/m)

Therefore, the conductivity of Nichrome is $2\times 10^6\ S/m$ .
