You are given a copper bar of dimensions 3 cm × 5 cm × 8 cm and asked to attach leads to it in order to make a resistor. (a) If

dem82 [27]

Answer:

A) If you want to achieve the SMALLEST possible resistance, you should attach the leads to the opposite faces that measure b) 5 cm by 8 cm.

B) If you want to achieve the LARGEST possible resistance, you should attach the leads to the opposite faces that measure a) 3 cm × 5 cm

Explanation:

Resistivity is directly proportional to lenght and inversely properly to cross sectional area.

For the first case, 5 cm by 8 cm gives the largest area and leave 3 cm as the lenght. The resistivity of the metal will be smallest in these dimensions.

For the second case, 3 cm by 5 cm gives the smallest area, leaving 8 cm as the lenght. This is the maximum arrangement that can give the largest resistance possible.

An airplane pilot wishes to fly due west. A wind of 80.0 km/h (about 50 mi/h) is blowing toward the south. (a) If the airspeed o

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

a) 75.5 degree relative to the North in north-west direction

b) 309.84 km/h

Explanation:

a)If the pilot wants to fly due west while there's wind of 80km/h due south. The north-component of the airplane velocity relative to the air must be equal to the wind speed to the south, 80km/h in order to counter balance it

So the pilot should head to the West-North direction at an angle of

$cos(\alpha) = 80/320 = 0.25$

$\alpha = cos^{-1}(0.25) = 1.32 rad = 180\frac{1.32}{\pi} = 75.5^0$ relative to the North-bound.

b) As the North component of the airplane velocity cancel out the wind south-bound speed. The speed of the plane over the ground would be the West component of the airplane velocity, which is

$320sin(\alpha) = 320sin(75.5^0) = 309.84 km/h$
