Resistance increases with the length of the wire

1 answer:

4 0

If the length of the wire increases, then the amount of resistance will also increase.

1. Take a long piece of wire and cut it 10 pieces. Those pieces should all be different sizes, one should be 5___ (units in meter, cm, inches, etc.), and the next should be 5 ___ (units in meter, cm, inches, etc.) more than the one before.
2. Take one piece of wire and measure the resistance using ___ and record the results in the data table.
3. Repeat the previous step with all the pieces of wire.
4. Compare and contrast the results you have found.

I hope this helps a bit :)

A suspended object A is attracted to a neutral wall. It's also attracted to a positively-charged object B. Which of the followin

olga2289 [7]

There are two particular cases, the first is when Object A is attracted to the neutral wall. This would indicate that the object is not neutral, as there is an attraction.

At the same time we know that Object A is attracted to an object B. And therefore, the load of A must be opposite to that of B. Remember that opposite charges attract each other. If the charge of object B is positive, then the charge of object A will be negative.

Option B is correct: It has a negative charge.

How does air resistance affect an object’s speed?

tatuchka [14]

When air resistance acts, acceleration during a fall will be less than g because air resistance affects the motion of the falling objects by slowing it down. Air resistance depends on two important factors - thespeed of the object and its surface area. Increasing the surface area of an object decreases its speed.

Help me find the acceleration

ANEK [815]

a = 3.09 m/s²

<h3>Explanation</h3>

This question doesn't tell anything about how long it took for the car to go through 105 meters. As a result, the timeless suvat equation is likely what you need for this question.

In the timeless suvat equation,

$a = \dfrac{v^2 - u^2}{2\; x}$

where

$a$ is the acceleration of the car;
$v$ is the final velocity of the car;
$u$ is the initial velocity of the car; and
$x$ is the displacement of the car.

Note that v and u are velocities. Make sure that you include their signs in the calculation.

In this question,

$a$ is the unknown;
$v = -10.9 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-2}$ ;
$u = -27.7 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-2}$ ; and
$x = - 105 \; \text{m}$ .

Apply the timeless suvat equation:

$a = \dfrac{v^{2} - u^{2}}{2\; x}\\\phantom{a} = \dfrac{(-10.9)^{2} - (-27.7)^{2}}{2 \times (-105)}\\\phantom{a} = 3.09 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-2}$ .

The value of $a$ is greater than zero, which is reasonable. Velocity of the car is negative, meaning that the car is moving backward. The car now moves to the back at a slower speed. Effectively it accelerates to the front. Its acceleration shall thus be positive.

What is the current through a 25 ohm resistor connected to a 5.0 V power supply? a 0.20 A b 5.0 A c 25 A d 30 A

zysi [14]

~Formula: Voltage= current• resistance
(V= Ir)
~Using this formula, plug in the numbers from the equation into the formula
~5=25i
~Now you have a one-step equation
~Divide by 25 on both sides and you should get your answer:
~I= 0.2 (which means current is 0.2)
