Answer:

Explanation:
Firstly, when you measure the voltage across the battery, you get the emf,
E = 13.0 V
In order to proceed we have to assume that the voltmeter offers no loading effect, which is a valid assumption since it has a very high resistance.
Secondly, the wires must be uniform. So the resistance per unit length is constant (say z). Now, even though the ammeter has very little resistance it cannot be ignored as it must be of comparable value/magnitude when compared to the wires. This is can seen in the two cases when currents were measured. Following Ohm's law and the resistance of a length of wire being proportional to it's length, we should have gotten half the current when measuring with the 40 m wire with respect to the 20 m wire (
). But this is not the case.
Let the resistance of the ammeter be r
Hence, using Ohm's law we get the following 2 equations:
.......(1)
......(2)
Substituting the value of r from (2) in (1), we have,

which simplifying gives us,
(which is our required solution)
putting the value of z in either (1) or (2) gives us, r = 0.5325 
Answer:
Yes the student is correct
Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed
The second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy (disorderliness) of an isolated system always increases
Therefore, whereby energy is not supplied to maintain the orderly oscillatory motion with constant amplitude, the amplitude of the system is bound to reduce with time that is the vibration of the system must be damped
Answer:
The observations show a higher velocity than is predicted, mainly in the galaxy's outer regions, indicating that there is more mass in the exterior areas than we can see.
The sound wave never actually loses energy, the bulk of energy it had at the beginning of the sound, is spread out into a sphere, making it decrease in amplitude and frequency.
