The cheetah's speed is 100x and
The gazelle's speed is 80x + 70.
Set the two equations equal to each other:
100x = 80x +70 (then subtract 80x from both sides).
20x = 70 (then divide by 20).
X =3.5.
The cheetah catches the gazelle after 3.5
Given Information:
Current = I = 20 A
Diameter = d = 0.205 cm = 0.00205 m
Length of wire = L = 1 m
Required Information:
Energy produced = P = ?
Answer:
P = 2.03 J/s
Explanation:
We know that power required in a wire is
P = I²R
and R = ρL/A
Where ρ is the resistivity of the copper wire 1.68x10⁻⁸ Ω.m
L is the length of the wire and A is the area of the cross-section and is given by
A = πr²
A = π(d/2)²
A = π(0.00205/2)²
A = 3.3x10⁻⁶ m²
R = ρL/A
R = 1.68x10⁻⁸*(1)/3.3x10⁻⁶
R = 5.09x10⁻³ Ω
P = I²R
P = (20)²*5.09x10⁻³
P = 2.03 Watts or P = 2.03 J/s
Therefore, 2.03 J/s of energy is produced in 1.00 m of 12-gauge copper wire carrying a current of 20 A
