Answer:
z is equal to 18.5
Step-by-step explanation:
When an equation is in the format a/b = c/d, the quickest way to simplify it is to cross multiply. Each side is multiplied by the other sides denominator, eliminating the division:
So z is equal to 18.5
Given that the diameter: d= 0.0625 inch.
So, radius of the wire : r = = 0.03125 inch
Now the formula to find the cross-sectional area of wire ( circle) is:
A = πr²
= 3.14 * (0.03125)² Since, π = 3.14 and r = 0.03125
=3.14 * 0.000976563
= 0.003066406
= 0.00307 (Rounded to 5 decimal places).
Hence, cross-sectional area of a wire is 0.00307 square inches.
Hope this helps you!
