The resistance of the cylindrical wire is R=\frac{\rho l}{A}.

Here R is the resistance, l is the length of the wire and A is the area of cross section. Since the wire is cylindrical A=\frac{\pi d^2}{4} . Rearranging the above equation,

A=\frac{\rho l}{R}\\  \frac{\pi d^2}{4}=\frac{\rho l}{R}\\  l=\frac{\pi d^2 R}{4 \rho}

Here d=0.15, R=15, \rho=1.68(10^{-8}).

Substituting numerical values,

l=\frac{\pi 0.15^2(10^{-6}) (15)}{4 (1.68)(10^{-8})}  \\ l=15.78

The length of the wire is 15.78 \;\;m

A 1.5m long string weighs 0.0020 kg. It is tensioned to 100N. A disturbance travels along it with a wavelength of 1.5m, find:a)
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

the propagation velocity of the wave is 274.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

length of the string, L = 1.5 m

mass of the string, m = 0.002 kg

Tension of the string, T = 100 N

wavelength, λ = 1.5 m

The propagation velocity of the wave is calculated as;

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} } \\\\\mu \ is \ mass \ per \ unit \ length \ of \ the \ string\\\\\mu = \frac{0.002 \ kg}{1.5 \ m} = 0.00133 \ kg/m\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{100}{0.00133} } \\\\v = 274.2 \ m/s

Therefore, the propagation velocity of the wave is 274.2 m/s

____, one of Saturn's icy moons, is unusual in the solar system in that it has volcanic activity that ejects plumes of icy parti
blondinia [14]

Answer: Enceladus

Explanation:

Enceladus is a small, icy body with an undergound ocean beneath its crust. Cassini discovered that geyser-like jets spew water vapor and ice particles. It is also the sixth largest moon in Saturn and just about a tenth of the largest moon in Saturn; Titan. It is often regarded as one of the most reflective body in the solar system as a result of its icy surface.
