Answer:

T=283^{\circ}C

Explanation:

Given a material with temperature coefficient of resistance <em>c</em>, the equation that relates the resistance R_0 at temperature T_0 and the resistance R at temperature T is

\frac{R-R_0}{R_0}=c(T-T_0)

We want to double our resistance, so R=2R_0, thus having:

\frac{2R_0-R_0}{R_0}=\frac{R_0}{R_0}=1=c(T-T_0)

For this T must be:

1=cT-cT_0

T=\frac{1+cT_0}{c}

which for our values means (with T=20^{\circ}C=293^{\circ}K, remember to write temperature in S.I., and that for silver c=0.0038^{\circ}K^{-1}):

T=\frac{1+(0.0038^{\circ}K^{-1})(293^{\circ}K)}{(0.0038^{\circ}K^{-1})}=556^{\circ}K=283^{\circ}C

A car travel with a constant velocity of 20.5m/s for 20seconds what distance does it cover in this time ?​
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

410 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 20.5 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 20 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (20.5 m/s) (20 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (20 s)²

Δx = 410 m

a spaceship, at rest in a certain reference frame s, is given a speed increment of 0.500c. it is then given a further 0.500c inc
bezimeni [28]

In order to give a spaceship at rest in a specific reference frame s a speed increment of 0.500c, seven increments are required. Then, in this new frame, it receives an additional 0.500c increment.

The speed of an object, also known as v in kinematics, is a scalar quantity that refers to the size of the change in that object's position over time or the size of the change in that object's position per unit of time. The distance travelled by an object in a certain period of time divided by the length of the period gives the object's average speed in that period.

The spacecraft moves at v1 = 0.5c after the initial increment.The equation becomes V2 = V+V1/1+V*V1/c after the second one. 2 V2 = 0.5c+0.50c/1+(0.50c)^2/c^ 2 = 0.80c

Likewise, V3 = 0.929c

V4 = 0.976c

V5 = 0.992c

V6 = 0.99c

V7 = 0.999c
