The resistance and the magnitude of the current depend on the path that the current takes. The drawing shows three situations in

which the current takes different paths through a piece of material. Each of the rectangular pieces is made from a material whose resistivity is rho = 1.50 x 10-2 Ω*m, and the unit of length in the drawing is L0 = 7 cm. Each piece of material is connected to a 3.00-V battery. Find (a) the resistance and (b) the current in each case.

Answer: (a). Resistance = 0.4286ohms and Current (I) = 7A

(b). Resistance (R) = 0.027 ohms and Current (I) = 111.1A

(c). Resistance (R) = 0.1071 ohms and Current (I) = 28A

Explanation:

From the question, given that;

ρ = 1.5*10-2ῼ.m

Lo = 7cm = 0.07m

V = 3V

From the formula R = ρL/A, where A is the area of cross section, L is the length of material and ρ is the resistivity.

(A)

L = 4Lo and A = 2Lo*Lo

R = ρL/A

R = ρ4Lo/(2Lo*Lo)

R = 2ρ /Lo = 2*1.5*10-2/0.07

R = 0.4286 ῼ

From this the current becomes;

I = V/R = 3/ 0.4286 = 6.99 = 7A

(B)

L = Lo and A = 4Lo * 2Lo

R = ρL/A

R = ρLo/ (4Lo*2Lo) after eliminating Lo from both sides we get,

R = ρ/8Lo = 1.5*10-2 / 8*0.07

R = 0.027

Current (I) = V/R = 3/0.027 = 111.1A

(C)

L = 2Lo and A = Lo * 4Lo

R = ρL/A

R = ρ2Lo/ (Lo*4Lo) eliminating Lo from both sides we get,

R = ρ/2Lo = 1.5*10-2 / 2*0.07 = 0.1071

The current becomes;

I = V/R = 3/0.1071 = 28A

The drawings show three charges that have the same magnitude but may have different signs. In all cases the distance d between t
Radda [10]

Answer:

a)F = 6816.5680 N

b) F' = 0 N

c)F''=28195.5N

Explanation:

Magnitude of charges M=1.6\muC

Distance d=2.6

Generally the equation for  Net Force is mathematically given by

For First Drawing

F =\frac{ k q^2}{d^2}+\frac{k q^2}{d^2}  

F =\frac{2* 9*10^9* (1.6*10^-6)^2}{ (2.6*10^-3^2}

F = 6816.5680 N

For second Drawing

F' =\frac{ k q^2}{d^2 }-\frac{ k q^2}{ d^2}  

F' = 0 N

For Third Drawing

F'' =\frac{ k q^2}{d^2} * \sqrt (2)

F'' = 9*10^9* (6.4*10^-6)^2 * \frac{\sqrt(2)}{(4.3*10^-3)^2}

F''=28195.5N

Which type of central heating system is often used when heating many buildings from a central location?
Deffense [45]
Steam is often used as a central heating system when heating many buildings froma central location. So the correct option for the given question is option "D". Steam is actually generated ina single room or place mechanically or by useing fossil fuel or solar energy and then it is passed through pipelines to several rooms and buidings. This kind of system is mostly used when heating several rooms or building at once. Electric heaters are normally avoided as the cost of electricity is far higher than any other source of heating.

Check cashing businesses do not require that an individual be an account holder; they will cash any valid check. True False
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
True. Free trade means they can't refuse to give you cash for a check. If you want the check deposited to an account, that's another story.
