Answer:

V = 3.6 volts

Explanation:

From Ohm's Law, we know that:

V = IR

but,

R = ρL/A

Therefore,

V = IρL/A

where,

V = Potential Difference = ?

I = Current = 4 A

ρ = resistivity of copper = 1.68 x 10⁻⁸ Ω.m

L = Length = 70 m

A = Cross-sectional Area = πd²/4 = π(1.29 x 10⁻³ m)²/4     [16 gauge wire has a diameter of 1.29 mm]

A = 1.31 x 10⁻⁶ m²

V = (4 A)(1.68 x 10⁻⁸ Ω.m)(70 m)/(1.31 x 10⁻⁶ m²)

<u>V = 3.6 volts</u>

At last, it's time to go diving! You load your stuff into the boat and head to an offshore dive site.
Ulleksa [173]
A. The boat uses an engine which provides it the kinetic energy to move. The engine uses gasoline, or manual paddles, push pole or propeller.  
B. In terms of thermodynamics law- for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. In this case, the thrust causes movement in case of the boat.

NEED HELP ASAP Does this Intro simulation support the law of conservation of energy? Use evidence to explain why or why not.
TiliK225 [7]

is this the skater one? If so, it does support the law of conservation of energy because at the top of the ramp the skater has the same amount of potential energy their total energy and as the skater goes down the ramp their potential energy lowers as their kinetic energy rises.

Three features describe the motion of an object. they are...
jasenka [17]
I would think B, Position, direction and speed. I tried looking it up and B seems to be the closest answer that resembles my results as I found that energy didn’t describe the motion of an object.

What are northern lights? a lights on mars b lights on the sun c lights on venus
laiz [17]

The northern lights are shafts or curtains of colorful light that occasionally appear in the night sky. They are one of the numerous astronomical phenomena known as polar lights (aurora Polaris).This phenomenon may be observed in mars.

Earth's magnetic field directs electrons and protons from the sun to the poles, where they excite atmospheric gas molecules and cause them to glow, resulting in the aurora borealis and aurora australis, two nocturnal light displays. You might refer to it as the aurora Universalis on Mars. This is because Mars does not direct the energetic particles from the sun to its poles since it lacks an internal magnetic field. Today, researchers utilizing the MAVEN (Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution) spacecraft find evidence for an aurora that may potentially cover the whole nightside of the planet. Venus lacks a magnetic field, thus it would not experience the same kind of nighttime aurora that we do.
