Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Global Positioning Systems (GPS) is a system which uses a network of satellites to construct maps. So, that it would be easy to trace location of a person, or to reach over a certain place.
It helps an individual by showing the route of destination wherever he/she wants to reach along with the total time to reach over the place.
Thus, GPS can determine the elevation of a given area and also it can determine latitude and longitude of a given area. As each GPS satellite broadcasts with a high power, narrow bandwidth, down link signal which can be received by our small hand held receiver antenna called mobile phone.
A GPS cannot determine the composition of soil on mountain ranges.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, GPS can determine the composition of soil on mountain ranges is not true about the Global Positioning Systems (GPS).

(b) the length of this wire that has resistance 22 ohms is 183.33 m
Explanation:
Given;
resistivity of the wire, ρ = 0.12 ohms per meter
(a) The resistance of 25m of wire is calculated as follows;
(b) the length of this wire that has resistance 22 ohms is calculated as;
Answer:
15.2 s
Explanation:
Convert hp to W:
55.0 hp × 746 W/hp = 41,030 W
Power = energy / time
41030 W = 6.22×10⁵ J / t
t = 15.2 s
