 The coefficient of expansion is 13 * 10^-6 m per meter length.per oK 
The temperature difference = 42 - - 8 = 50 oC 
delta T = (42 + 273) - (-8 + 273) = 50 oK 
delta L = L * 13* 10^6 m/oK 
oK = 50 oK delta L = 19.5 cm = 19.5 cm [1m / 100 cm] = 0.195m 
So we need to find the length and it is computed by:
0.195= L * 13 * 10^-6 * 50 L = 0.195 / (13*10^-6*50) L = 300 m

How will a wave change as it moves from a layer of lower velocity into a lower layer of higher velocity?
Dimas [21]

Answer:

The wave moves away from the normal

Explanation:

Waves are the disturbances that are able to carry energy from one place to another. These waves can travel in both the denser as well as the rarer medium.

In the denser medium, the waves travel at a slower rate, and on the other hand, in rarer medium, the waves can travel at a comparatively faster rate.

As a wave moves from a layer of low velocity (denser medium such as a liquid) to a layer of high velocity (rarer medium like air), then the waves move away from the normal (perpendicular line) and result in the increase in the velocity of the wave.

A string of 26 identical Christmas tree lights are connected in series to a 120 V source. The string dissipates 73 W. What is th
spin [16.1K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to Ohm's law and Electric Power. By Ohm's law we know that resistance is equivalent to,

R_{eq}= \frac{V}{I}

Here,

V = Voltage

I = Current

While the power is equivalent to the product between the current and the voltage, thus solving for the current we have,

P=VI \rightarrow I = \frac{P}{V}

I =0.608 A

Applying Ohm's law

R_{eq} = \frac{120V}{0.608A}

R_{eq} = 197.4\Omega

Therefore the equivalent resistance of the light string is 197.4\Omega
