A current-carrying ohmic metal wire has a cross-sectional area that gradually becomes smaller from one end of the wire to the ot

her. The current has the same value for each section of the wire, so charge does not accumulate at any one point.(ii) How does the resistance per unit length vary along the wire as the area becomes smaller? Choose from the same possibilities as in part (i).

The resistance per unit length decreases along the wire as the area becomes smaller.

<h3>What is the resistance per unit length of a wire?</h3>

The resistance per unit length of a wire is the a constant know as the conductivity of a wire.

The conductivity of a wire is a measure of the resistance offered per unit length of a wire. It increases with increase in the area of a wire and decreases with decrease in the area of a unit length of wire.

It is the inverse of the resistivity of a wire.

In conclusion, the resistance per unit length is directly proportional to the area of a unit length of wire.

Does light travel faster through water or glass?
Len [333]

Answer: The refractive index or n shows the relationship between c and the speed v when light travels through a material. The equation is n=c/v. In water, the refractive index is 1.3 and in glass, it is 1.5. Therefore, light travels faster through water, than it travels through glass.

Gauss's law is usualy written as :
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

(a) the net charge inside the closed surface.

Explanation:

In Gauss' Law, Qencl refers to the net charge inside the Gaussian surface. This surface is usually taken as a symmetric geometric surface, but this is merely for simplicity. Gauss' Law holds for any closed surface. Inside this surface there can be insulators as well as conductors. Regardless of the geometry or the materials inside, Qencl refers to the net charge inside the closed surface. The charge outside the surface is irrelevant for Gauss' Law, therefore all the charge in the physical system is not included in Gauss' Law.
