The journey of an electron through an external circuit involves a long and slow zigzag path that is characterized by losses in e

lectric potential. We now look extensively at resistance - the cause for these voltage drops. Resistivity is defined by the ratio of the magnitude to electric field and current density. Resistance is related to resistivity by R= rhoL/A for cylindrical conductors. Two wires - A and B - with circular cross-sections have identical lengths and are made of the same material. Yet, wire A has four times the resistance of wire B. How many times greater is the diameter of wire B than wire A?

Answer:

d_{b} = 2 d_{a}

Explanation:

The electrical resistance for a cylindrical wire is described by the expression

         R = ρ L / A

The area of ​​a circle is

     A = π r²

     r = d / 2

     A = π d²/4

We substitute

      R = ρ L  4 /π d²

Let's apply this expression to our case, they indicate that the resistance of wire A is 4 times the resistance of wire B

    R_{a} = 4 R_{b}

We substitute

    ρ  4/π d_{a}² = 4 (ρ  4/π d_{b}²)

    1 / d_{a}² = 4 / d_{b}²

     d_{a} = d_{b} / 2

During a compression at a constant pressure of 290 Pa, the volume of an ideal gas decreases from 0.62 m3 to 0.21 m3. The initial
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

a) -41.1 Joule

b) 108.38 Kelvin

Explanation:

Pressure = P = 290 Pa

Initial volume of gas = V₁ = 0.62 m³

Final volume of gas = V₂ = 0.21 m³

Initial temperature of gas = T₁ = 320 K

Heat loss = Q = -160 J

Work done = PΔV

⇒Work done = 290×(0.21-0.62)

⇒Work done = -118.9 J

a) Change in internal energy = Heat - Work

ΔU = -160 -(-118.9)

⇒ΔU = -41.1 J

∴ Change in internal energy is -41.1 J

b) V₁/V₂ = T₁/T₂

⇒T₂ = T₁V₂/V₁

⇒T₂ = 320×0.21/0.62

⇒T₂ = 108.38 K

∴ Final temperature of the gas is 108.38 Kelvin

A baseball pitcher throws a baseball horizontally at a linear speed of 42.5 m/s (about 95 mi/h). Before being caught, the baseba
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

4.5m/s

Explanation:

Linear speed (v) = 42.5m/s

Distance(x) = 16.5m

θ= 49.0 rad

radius (r) = 3.67 cm

= 0.0367m

The time taken to travel = t

Recall that speed = distance / time

Time = distance / speed

t = x/v

t = 16.5/42.5

t = 0.4 secs

tangential velocity is proportional to the radius and angular velocity ω

Vt = rω

Angular velocity (ω) = θ/t

ω = 49/0.4

ω = 122.5 rad/s

Vt = rω

Vt = 0.0367 * 122.5

Vt =4.5 m/s
