Answer: a) when the cross section is doubled the resultant resistence  is a half. This means the thicker wire have half resistence than the thinner wire.

Explanation: In order to explain this behaviur we have to consider the expresion for the resistence which is given by:

R=\frac{\epsilon o  L}{A} where L and A are the length and the cross section for the wire, respectively.

From this expresssion we can conclude the above, this means

R=εo*L/A  if A is now 2A we have

R' = εo*L/2*A= R/2

Which of the following statements is accurate?
Volgvan

Answer: B. If an object's velocity is changing,it's either experiencing acceleration or deceleration.


Acceleration is defined as the rate at which an object changes its velocity. This implies that if an object is changing it's velocity it is experiencing acceleration/ deceleration.

Acceleration is a vector quantity that has both a magnitude and time.

It is represented as

Acceleration= change in velocity/time.

The SI unit for acceleration is m/s^2
