A ductile metal wire has resistance R. What will be the resistance of this wire in terms of R if it is stretched to three times
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

9R

Explanation:

We know that the resistance is R=\rho *\frac{L}{A}.

If we stretch the wire to a new length L2 = 3L, the cross-sectional area will also change. If the cross-sectional area doesn't change throughout the wire, we can say that:

Volume = L*A = 3L * A2    being A2 the new area after stretching the wire.

Since the volume remains the same we conclude that A2 = A/3

With this information, we calculate the new resistance:

R2=\rho *\frac{L2}{A2}=\rho *\frac{3*L}{A/3}=\rho * 9 * \frac{L}{A}

Since R=\rho *\frac{L}{A}, and by simple inspection of the previous equation, we get:

<em>R2 = 9*R</em>

An object of 4 cm length is placed at a distance of 18 cm in front of a convex mirror of radius of curvature 30 cm. Find the pos
erica [24]

Answer:

The position is 8.18cm from the mirror.

Nature is b=virtual

Size is 1.82cm

Explanation:

Note that for a convex mirror, the image distance and the focal length are negative;

Given

Object height H0 = 4cm

object distance u = 18cm

Radius of curvature R = 30cm

Since f = R/2

f = 30/2

f = -15cm

Recall that:

\frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{u}+ \frac{1}{v}\\\frac{1}{-15}=\frac{1}{18}+\frac{1}{v}    \\\frac{1}{v} =\frac{1}{-15} -\frac{1}{18}\\ \frac{1}{v} = \frac{-18-15}{270}\\\frac{1}{v} = \frac{-33}{270}\\v=\frac{-270}{33}\\v=-8.18cm

Since the image distance is negative, this shows that the image is a virtual image.

To get the size:

\frac{H_1}{H_0}=\frac{v}{u}\\\frac{H_1}{4}=\frac{8.18}{18}\\18H_i=32.72\\H_i=\frac{32.72}{18}\\H_i= 1.82cm
