Suppose the resistance of a copper wire is 1.05 N at 30°C.

Physics
1 answer:
icang [17]2 years ago

Answer:

42.9°C

Explanation:

Resistance of a conducting material is directly proportion to Temperature, that is, when being heated, their is more of collisions between the molecules of the material which as a result offers more opposition to the flow of current through it.

therefore R=kT

where R=resistance of the wire

T=Temperature

k= proportionality constant

when R=1.05 T=30°C

so k=1.05/30

k=0.035

when R=1.5 k=0.035

so T=1.5/0.035

T=42.9°C. or 43°C approximated

How light is channelled down an optical fibre
coldgirl [10]

Explanation:

Suppose you want to shine a flashlight beam down a long, straight hallway. Just point the beam straight down the hallway -- light travels in straight lines, so it is no problem. What if the hallway has a bend in it? You could place a mirror at the bend to reflect the light beam around the corner. What if the hallway is very winding with multiple bends? You might line the walls with mirrors and angle the beam so that it bounces from side-to-side all along the hallway. This is exactly what happens in an optical fiber.

The light in a fiber-optic cable travels through the core (hallway) by constantly bouncing from the cladding (mirror-lined walls), a principle called total internal reflection. Because the cladding does not absorb any light from the core, the light wave can travel great distances.

However, some of the light signal degrades within the fiber, mostly due to impurities in the glass. The extent that the signal degrades depends on the purity of the glass and the wavelength of the transmitted light (for example, 850 nm = 60 to 75 percent/km; 1,300 nm = 50 to 60 percent/km; 1,550 nm is greater than 50 percent/km). Some premium optical fibers show much less signal degradation -- less than 10 percent/km at 1,550 nm.

3. In which activity is no work done?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Sleeping, since your brain is working, but your physical body is not moving at all or moving rarely, therefore there is no work done in the activity of sleeping.

The two measurements necessary for calculating average speed are
alisha [4.7K]

The correct answer is Option (C) distance and time

Explanation:

Average speed of any object is defined as the total distance that object travels over the time it takes to travel that distance. In other words, average speed is the total distance divided by the elapsed time.

Average \thinspace Speed = \frac{Total \thinspace Distance}{Elapsed \thinspace Time}

Therefore, as you can see in the above equation, the two measurements that are essential for the calculation of the average speed are the (total) distance and the (elapsed) time.

Hence, the correct option is C.

If you are driving 90 km/hkm/h along a straight road and you look to the side for 2.8 ss , how far do you travel during this ina
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

Distance = 70 meters

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Speed = 90 km/h

Time = 2.8 seconds

<u>Conversion:</u>

90 km/h to meters per seconds = 90 * 1000/3600 = 90000/3600 = 25 m/s

To find the distance covered during this inattentive period;

Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.

Mathematically, speed is given by the formula;

Speed = \frac{distance}{time}

Making distance the subject of formula, we have;

Distance = speed * time

Substituting into the above formula, we have;

Distance = 25 * 2.8

<em>Distance = 70 meters</em>

A wave has a wavelength of 125 meters is moving at a speed of 20 m/s. What is it’s frequency?
Ann [662]

Answer: 0.16Hz

Explanation:

Given that:

wavelength (λ) = 125 meters

speed (V) = 20 m/s

frequency (F) = ?

Recall that frequency is the number of cycles the wave complete in one second. And its value depends on the wavelength and speed of the wave.

So, apply the formula V = F λ

Make F the subject formula

F = V / λ

F = 20 m/s / 125 meters

F = 0.16 Hz

Thus, the frequency of the wave is 0.16 Hertz.
