Answer:

1.5 \Omega

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is given by the equation:

R=\rho \frac{L}{A}

where

\rho is the resistivity of the material

L is the length of the wire

A is the cross-sectional area of the wire

In this problem, we have a wire of platinoid, whose resistivity is

\rho = 3.3\cdot 10^{-7} \Omega m

The length of the wire is

L = 7.0 m

And its radius is

r=\frac{0.14 cm}{2}=0.07 cm = 7\cdot 10^{-4} m, so the cross-sectional area is

A=\pi r^2=\pi(7\cdot 10^{-4})^2=1.54\cdot 10^{-6}m^2

Solving for R, we find the resistance of the wire:

R=(3.3\cdot 10^{-7})\frac{7.0}{1.54\cdot 10^{-6}}=1.5 \Omega

Katarina [22]
The change in temperature here corresponds to a sensible heat. The amount of energy required can be calculated by multiplying the specific heat capacity, the amount of the substance and the corresponding change in temperature.

Heat required = mCΔT
Heat required = 0.368 kg (0.0920 cal/g°C) (60 - 23)°C
Heat required = 1.25 cal

natka813 [3]

Answer:

DS = 13865.7[J/K]

Explanation:

We can calculate the energy of the rock, like the potential energy relative to the lake level. Which can be calculated by means of the following expression of the potential energy:

E_{p}=m*g*h\\\\where:\\m = mass = 2000[kg]\\h = elevation = 200 [m]\\g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]

Therefore:

E_{p}=2000*9.81*200\\E_{p}=3924000 [J]\\

This energy is transformed into thermal energy.

we shall remember that isothermal heat transfer processes are internally reversible, so the entropy change of a system during one of these processes can be determined, by the following expression.

DS=\frac{Q}{T}\\ where:\\DS = entropy change [J/K]\\Q = Heat transfer [J]\\T = temperature [K]

T = 5 + 278 = 283[K]

DS = 3924000 / 283

DS = 13865.7[J/K]
