70x(50-30) = W x (90-50)
1400 = W x 40
W = 35N

A conductor of radius r, length and resistivity ρ has resistance r. what is the new resistance if it is stretched to 4 times its

max2010maxim [7]

The resistance of a conductor is given by
$R= \frac{\rho L}{A}$
where L is the length of the wire, $\rho$ the resistivity of the material and A the cross-sectional area.

We can see that if all the other quantities do not change, if the new length of the conductor is 4 times the original length: $L'=4 L$ , then the new resistance is also 4 times the original value:
$R'= \frac{\rho L'}{A}= \frac{\rho 4 L}{A}=4 \frac{\rho L}{A}=4 R$

A weatherman carried an aneroid barometer from the ground floor to his office atop the Sears Tower in Chicago. On the level grou

Sophie [7]

Answer:

442.36038 m or 1451.31362 ft

Explanation:

$P_1$ = Initial pressure = 30.15 inHg

$P_2$ = Final pressure = 28.607 inHg

$\rho$ = Density of air = 0.075 lb/ft³

$1\ lb/ft^3=16.0185\ kg/m^3$

$1\ in=0.0254\ m$

$1\ m=3.28084\ ft$

Density of mercury = 13560 kg/m³

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Difference in pressure is given by

$P_1-P_2=\rho gh\\\Rightarrow h=\frac{P_1-P_2}{\rho g}\\\Rightarrow h=\frac{(30.15-28.607)\times 13560\times 0.0254\times 9.81}{0.075\times 16.0185\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h=442.36038\ m\\\Rightarrow h=442.36038\times 3.28084\\\Rightarrow h=1451.31362\ ft$

The height of the building is 442.36038 m or 1451.31362 ft

The upward force exerted on an object falling through air is _____.

stira [4]

(C) Air Resistance

<u>Explanation:</u>

When an object falls through air, air resistance acts on it in upward direction. When air resistance acts, acceleration during a fall will be less than g because air resistance affects the motion of the falling objects by slowing it down. Air resistance depends on two important factors - the speed of the object and its surface area. Increasing the surface area of an object decreases its speed.

Verdich [7]

Therefore, if the block moves from its position of maximum spring stretch to maximum spring compression in 0.25 s, the time required for a full cycle is twice as much; T = 0.5 s.
