Answer:

How well a material conducts an electrical charge and is measured in ohms.

Explanation:

Resistance is the property of a conductor which opposes the flow of electric current. Its SI unit is ohms and represented by \Omega. According to Ohm's law voltage is directly proportional to the current flowing through the circuit.

It depends directly on the length of the conductor and inversely on its area of cross section. It measure how well a material conducts an electrical charge. Hence, the correct option is (b).

An 8 kg mass moving at 8 m/s collides with a 6 kg mass
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

10 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum before collision = momentum after collision

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(8 kg)(8 m/s) + (6 kg)(6 m/s) = (8 kg)(5 m/s) + (6 kg) v

64 kg m/s + 36 kg m/s = 40 kg m/s + (6 kg) v

60 kg m/s = (6 kg) v

v = 10 m/s

A wire is carrying current vertically downward. What is the direction of the force due to Earth's magnetic field on the wire?
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

The direction of the force will be towards the east

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

    The direction of the  downward

Generally according to Fleming's right-hand rule(

          Thumb -  direction of force

           Middle finger -  direction of current

           Index finger -  direction of the magnetic field

) and the fact that the earth magnetic field acts  from south to north with respect to the four cardinal points then the direction of the  force will be toward the east with respect to the four cardinal point on the earth

Suppose the initial position of an object is zero, the starting velocity is 3 m/s and the final velocity was 10 m/s. The object
Nookie1986 [14]

Explanation:

We have,

The initial position of an object is zero.

The starting velocity is 3 m/s and the final velocity was 10 m/s.

The object moves with constant acceleration..

The area covered under the velocity-time graph gives displacement of the object. The correct option is "the area of the rectangle plus the area of the triangle under the line".

As shown in the picture above, a sled of mass 67 kilograms is pulled
Scorpion4ik [409]

Explanation:

F net of sled = Tension force by rope - Kinetic friction between ground.

F normal of sled = mg = (67kg)(9.81kg/m^2) = 657.27N.

Kinetic friction = 0.18 (I cannot see the value) * Normal force of sled = 0.18 * 657.27N = 118.31N

So F net of sled = 800N - 118.31N = 681.69N.

(I cannot see what the question is asking for, please check on your own!)
