Answer:

L = 6.032 m

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is given by

      R = ρ L / A

done ρ is the resistivity of matter, L is the length and A is the area

      L = R A /ρ

the area of ​​a circle is

    A = π r² = π d² / 4

    L = R π d² / 4ρ

in the problem they indicate the resistance of 240 Ω, the diameter of 0.040 mm and the resistivity of 5 10⁻⁷ Ω / m

Let's reduce the diameter to SI units

   d = 0.040 mm (1 m / 1000 mm) = 4 10⁻⁵ m

let's calculate

     L = 240 π (4 10⁻⁵) 2 / (4 5 10⁻⁷)

     L = 6.0319 m

     L = 6.032 m

rosijanka [135]
<span><span>The answer is A.

</span><span>Chlorine is found in group7A of the periodic table. This means that when they are neutral, (electrons and protons are equal), they lack 1 electron to complete the octet or eight valence electrons to be stable. This will result in Chlorine having to gain an electron. Since it gained an electron, that means the electrons outnumber the protons by 1, which will result in a negative charge of -1. </span></span>

drek231 [11]

Answer:

0.1 A

Explanation:

From the question,

V = IR............ Equation 1

Where V = Voltage, I = current, R = Resistance.

Given: I = 0.2 A, R = 10 ohms.

Substitute into equation 1

V = 0.2(10)

V = 2 volt,

If the resistor is replaced with a 20 resistor, The nwe current is

I = V/R................ Equation 2

I = 2/20

I = 0.1 A
